Well my hair got henna'd and we had a drive in the sunshine. Since there was an ice storm last night the trees along the highway were beautiful.
There ends the good part of the day.
The Leap Frog book says "Works with all LeapStart systems." and if you google Leap Start, Leap Frog comes up. Unfortunately, they have dozens of systems that look similar but aren'ts and they are not all LeapStart and people are not clear in their descriptions and dd sent me the link and I didn't think to have her measure it so that's 2 hours I won't get back from 2019. To waste 2 hours so soon in the year is demoralizing and takes the wind out of one's sails. Our friends weren't home so we couldn't visit with them and salvage the trip.
We're home again. I'm tired and grumpy and think I need to give up on getting one of these stupid things used. Even if I do manage to get one that works, since they revise them regularly to make preceding versions obsolete, I will have to buy all the books now in order to be sure to have more than one item to use in this consumer trap.
Dd suggest we just hand dgs the book (which is absolutely useless without the system, since it doesn't include words or make any sense) and let him colour on it. I'll give it a week or so and then do so.
