New sign


It's Friday - the day I normally try and wrangle the cluttered house somewhat into order. The sun is shining, I've got the windows open and it is beautiful out - - - so somehow I'm just not in the mood to clean! Can't blast my cleaning music since the windows are open - hey - I'm airing out the house - that's at least a start, right? Better find some headphones and use my Ipod to get this junk done. DVR update - I got the new one and hooked it up myself in time to record the show for Kate. I think I'll have to take it back, though, because the "regular" channels are all "fuzzy". I usually watch just the HD channels - but sometimes still need the regular ones. Think I'll procrastinate (as usual) and put that on the list for next week. :) I Found cute, yet inexpensive dresses for Emily and Sarah for Lauran's upcoming wedding. I actually found one for myself that I loved at Kohl's - but talked myself out of it due to price. It kept bugging me - so I went back yesterday afternoon to see if it was even there anymore. Not only did they still have ONE left in my size, but it was on sale for 40% off and if you used your charge card they took another 15% off! Figured that was a sign from above that I should by the dress. Now I only need to find something for Megan and we'll be all set. Ok, guess I can't put off the cleaning any longer. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

DVR

Ok - so Suzanne likes to order groceries by computer - I like to DVR (like Tivo) shows and skip through the commercials. We all have our vices! Our DVR has been having problems for awhile now - but I was trying to get the kids to watch all the stuff they had on it before exchanging it. They are my children - so they procrastinated - and over the weekend the whole thing went down. No more being able to pause live tv - - - how archaic! Tonight is the season finale of Greek and Kate works until 9 so she'll miss it. I'm going to try and exchange the box at our local Comcast office - but have set up a tech call on the box for tomorrow am in case they don't have one to exchange. How pathetic is that? Sarah had a great time at her sleepover - and no middle of the night call to mom!

First Sleep over




Sarah is at her first sleep over tonight. Wow - a "last" first for me! Weird to think about! She was excited, but nervous. I'm sure she'll do fine - but I'm still going to sleep with the phone beside the bed in case she calls to come home. I can't wait to get all the details in the morning.

Weekend

A thanks to the Turner girls for a nice weekend! Kelly made up a scavenger hunt for Rachel, Sarah, Emily and their friend, McKenzie. It was a great "dry run" for the one she'll be putting on next weekend for Rachel's 12th birthday party with about 20 kids! Good luck with it!! Amazing how fast they grow up! The three "bigs" went out and got hair cuts together -couldn't get them to stand still long enough to get a picture - but I'm sure they took some themselves. I'll try and get one from them to post this week. They really turned out great.
We tried to watch a number of movies - but I kept falling asleep by midnight! Sorry, Kelly!
