It was overcast today. After school, Mom took my aunt and me for a stroll at the outlet. She had been feeling a bit stressed out from work and really needed to talk to someone. We had dinner at a Japanese restaurant, it was pretty nice. She talked a lot about relationships between colleagues; it sounded complicated. Anyway, taking a nice stroll around is way better than being buried under all that miserable homework. I (hope we) can do this more often.
