Thursday, August 27 and Friday, August 28, 2027

On the way to school Thursday morning, Chase and Nanaw discussed the Gibault Thursday lunch – chicken nuggets. Chase said whenever they have a chicken dish for lunch, that’s the only entrée choice instead of having two choices. They always have mashed potatoes and gravy when they have the one chicken dish. Uncle Mike came over to cut Nanaw’s grass on Thursday, plus spray for ants. He stopped at Home Depot (although Life360 always says Home Deport is Smoothie King) and bought three little bushes for the front yard that were on sale for $3 each. Home Deport is trying to get rid of all their plants and bushes. On the way home from school Chase reported that the chicken nuggets were good, better than ICS. But he said the chicken fries they had the other day weren’t good, and the ones at ICS were much better. On the Friday morning drive to school, Chase and Nanaw had a rider with them – they gave Brady a ride to school. Brady’s mom was going to the mass at Gibault with the students but she had to get Emma to ICS first so Brady needed a ride. Chase was happy about it, and the two of them laughed and talked all the way to school. It was some kind of special mass where parents and grandparents were invited, and the boys had to wear their white Oxford cloth shirts and khaki pants or shorts. Nanaw took a picture of the boys before they left, and Chase’s picture was on the school’s Facebook page. On the way home from school. Chase was very talka tive and in a good mood – quite a miracle. He said the pizza bread they had for lunch was really good, and he wants to make some next Friday for Enrichment Friday. He also said he needs two new, bigger notebooks -- a red one and a black one. He said maybe they could go to Target to get them with Mama because she’s off and then go to lunch. But they would still make the pizza bread that day as a snack. He was excited that he was going to play golf with Brady and Drew at the golf course by the driving range at 4:30. Nanaw had to have him home by 4 p.m. When they got to Chase’s house, they asked Mama about their plans for next Friday, and she said they could do it if she was only away from home for two hours. She wants to have enough time to clean the house for the day before Labor Day party at their house.  In the Days of Chase post for the weekend, Nanaw will tell about Chase’s plan for not forgetting things (like a permission slip or homework or a quiz or test, all of which he’s done in the past two weeks) that Chase came up with all on his own.
