Did I stop on the right or the left? I think it was this side. Oops. That was definitely not the side I should have started using.

Two hours alone with Evan while the big children are swimming, so Cathy and Doug are: a. going out for dinner or b. running errands or c. taking a nap or d. staying awake.
