Tanya - I totally forgot all the clothes you had along with you on Saturday to return to me. Sorry! This just means we need to get together again soon so I can take them off your hands.
I got a Wii Fit! Finally. This was actually my Mother's Day gift but we couldn't find one. I got the last one at SuperStore, so quite happy. Now I need to pull it out of the box and, gasp, use it.
Yesterday afternoon we put Duncan down for a nap and so I thought "ah ha, I'll have a few hours to quilt for once!" Yeah, not so much. He did not want to sleep, so I had everything pulled out, iron warmed up, even cut 5 whole strips of fabric, and had to pack it all away b/c there is no quilting when little boys are up.
Speaking of little boys, he was such a trooper this morning. He's been having a hard time adjusting going back to day care after vacation, so when we were ready to go he started to cry. I just said to him "You need to be a big boy and stop crying." And he did! I had to remind him a few times going over there, but with tears in his eyes, and a trembling lip I handed him over with no crying at all. He is such a sweet soul.

Random things
Nancy - I've been finding that with Facebook too - a new sudden influx of people. It seems to go in waves. Even my Dad joined!!
Tanya - I meant to tell you how awesome I thought it was that you left Warren with Tara overnight. We never would have done that! I told Bill and he said "I don't think it even occurred to us to do that". You guys rock. I'm glad you didn't have kids today - I know you would have done fine, but much easier without.
Jennifer - yay on new (to you) van. I hope Six is doing well.
Theresa came home to a pipe that had burst upstairs - leaking through the ceiling into the living room... it's pretty nasty. Please pray for her b/c it's going to take a bit to get it all sorted out and floors replaced and ceiling pulled and fixed etc... We've offered her to come over and use shower/toilet facilities as needed, but I hope she's not out of home for a while.
How sweet is this? Following my annoyed post about the Wii Fit Bill went on a hunt to see if he could find one from somewhere else so we could "show them". He didn't find one, but what a sweetie for looking. It's stuff like that which makes him the best man in the world to me.
Tee hee hee...I got two random hits on my blog for putting Gerard Butler in there. He's yummy. So is Ben Browder. I'm just putting that out there.
And finally an update on my Oma - she's still hanging in there! The doctor can't even explain it and says "I still stand by what I said a week ago - 24-48 hours". We've been by to visit on Sunday and Monday. Mom had the day "off" while Auntie Elizabeth (Mom's sister) came out to be with Oma. It really won't be long now - days, who knows... but please pray for an ease of passing when it comes.

Annoyed
Today I'm annoyed. Theresa and I have been trying to track down Wii Fits for quite some time now, and while at Rogers Video a few weeks ago I asked if they had any - no but you can put your name on a list and they will give you one when it comes in. On Saturday I checked "where am I on the list?" 6th they said. Today Theresa emails "hey I got mine! Did you get yours?" What? She was after me on the list. So I called Rogers (loyal cell phone customer for 12 years now)
Me: "Umm... what's going on?" (okay I didn't ask that way - I explained the situation)
Rogers: "Oh you must not have responded when we called."
Me: "Do your normally leave messages?"
Rogers: "normally"
Me: "Well you didn't. So do you have one for me?"
Rogers: "Let me check... no we don't, sorry."
Me: "Okay well would you please make a note beside my name to leave a message next time?"
Rogers: "Yes, I'll put a note beside your name."
I'm totally razzing Theresa "You >beep< I can't believe you stole my Wii Fit... " and she's totally having fun rubbing it in "ha ha I jumped the line and got it 1st..."
But all kidding aside - I'm glad she got hers b/c she also really wanted one, but I'm annoyed with Rogers! I need to go check my call display tonight and see if they did even call.
