I was away from the house from 8:00 to 3:30. I was so glad I had the pens for the kids and didn't have to worry about getting back to them. They were a little hungry since they didn't have lunch at 12. I just adjusted their schedule this particular day. They were still served three meals.
After playing with them and getting dinner, I was finally able to have enough time to start walking again from 8:00PM to 9:00PM. The eight weeks with the puppies seem to get shorter and shorter, but it doesn't leave much time for anything else.
