On Saturday, Leigh took me shopping for school clothes, but first we went shopping at his favorite hardware store. He bought an entire assortment of tools, and then we went to my fave Italian restaurant. Next, it was time to go shopping at the mall. Afterwards, we headed back home. On the way back, a car located in front of us stalled at the stop sign, and all of the other vehicles were just passing them despite the 'handicapped' license plate. Leigh got off the car, and he helped the family move their car off of the main road. Then he used the tools he had purchased earlier that day to help fix the car's battery. The family consisted of a woman named Diana, her two young children, and her elderly parents (one of whom had an oxygen tank). Fortunately, Leigh got the car off and running, and the family was genuinely thankful for the help. They did get a kick out of Leigh using the items that he had purchased earlier that day at the tool shoppe.
We made one more stop before heading back home. We stopped at Leigh's fave restaurant for dessert (his reward for being patient while I tried on a million outfits at the mall...lol!)
Finally we arrived home and got to bed. Whew!
Today, Leigh woke up feeling ill, and he spent most of the day asleep trying to nurse his cold. I, on the other hand, spent the day watching a marathon of "Ghost Hunters" episodes. I did manage to debunk the television set turning on in my classroom last week thanks to Steve (one of the Ghost Hunters members). He experienced the same event while setting up for a case investigation. And it turns out that the walkie talkies that they used were acting like a remote for the television due to the signal it was broadcasting. (This just so happens that our janitors at the school were using walkie talkies when we experienced the tv turn on last week.) So, thank you Ghost Hunters! :)
