A better night

Came home after school, cooked dinner and send DS5 to call SD15 for dinner. She ate it and waited everyone to finish without making bored sounds or tapping her foot on the floor etc. She usually ohhing and puffing sounds when she is not happy at the table. (in extreme cases she used to say swear words but after I called her on the "w.ore" word that she used in spanish, they seem to stop - I think i somehow impressed her that I know not only my mother language and English, I also know bits of other languages - and of course she wasn't happy to be called out on that).

SO dinner went smoothly which was good. While DS5 was putting his plate in the dishwasher SD15 even put away the salt and pepper, and other things that were needed to be put in the fridge. Of course I said thank you while she walked away. and she even responded to that saying "yeah" rather than the usual "hmm hmm"

Around 6:45 she asked if it is ok for her to jump in the shower in 15 min. Given the timeframe I thought it would be ok as DS5 and I were watching movie I said ok. and that is almost the last I have seen of her, except the couple trips to the kitchen.

So it is definitely much better night.

I hope it didn't sound like me bragging. (-suddenly thinks that). It is because I used to hang out with lots of Spanish people and get used to hearing them tease each other.
