Pretty lowkey day getting some work done and reading some papers.  Mother and father were watching some old home movies and it sounded like they were going to die they were laughing so hard.  I went in to check it out and it was the video of maria hitting father in the face with a whipped cream pie.  Highlights included: them for some reason deciding this wasn't going to be messy and so not putting anything down (silly parentals), Mao eating the whipped cream on the carpet, and father complaining about the quality of the whipped cream (it was Stater Bro. brand).  One of the other videos was us playing charades but mother not wanting to play so being a rock (we had a hard time guessing that).  We churched outside today since the weather was amazing and talked before and after with eddie/ania and maria/kevin.  Ania is ordering earth worm poop to make potting soil with.  We also gave mother her mothers day presents.  She had fun with the cooling arm sleeves pretending to be a dinosaur.  After that we cleaned up, and then I went and did some jump roping and milk jug workout.  I had multiple jumping of 25+ jumps and I was going back and forth between jumping and lifting and carried 21 pound jugs between activities.  Then we watced part of the Count of Monte Cristo had dinner, and then watched Harry Potter 6.  Overall i think mother had a good mothers day.

Fact: In September of 1966 a group of 6 teens who had been marooned on the island of ‘Ata (part of Tonga) were found by a fishing boat.  They had been there about 16 months after running away from their school and went out only to end up getting swept away when their anchor line broke.  The island had been formerly inhabited (until half the residents were kidnapped by slavers in 1863 and the remainder moved to Tonga) and the abandoned village contained a feral chicken population and also various crops that the kids survived on.

Once I woke up I did some work on the sequences until it was time to eat lunch.  Since the weather was so nice we decided to eat on the porch, but to move the table down by the fire pit so we were in the sun.  We also went for a walk (i had 21 pounds in my backpack and it was an easy 2.5 miles).  When we got home father discovered the Linux computer wasn't booting up.  We tried some trouble shooting and eventually got it to come up in recovery mode.  I figured out some updates were installed 2 days ago, which fits with the timeline of when it last worked, so I expect one of those isnt compatible with the graphics card.  Then once father when to bed mother and I watched house hunters and I had some fruit for dinner.  I even facebooked stalked one of the people because she sounded really familiar and was in environmental consulting.  But it turned out she was from Cbad and went to NMSU quite a bit after I stopped going to western conclaves so I dont think I know her.
