Lacking

August 5, 2009 By Mindy

5 Aug

There's so much I want to write, and so little I want to say.  That doesn't make sense to probably anyone other than me, but so be it.  Our lives have been extraordinarily boring of late.  Here's an update anyway.

  • Liam had his favorite lunch today, "bish".  That would be salmon croquettes with ketchup to everyone else.
  • Juliana had sweet potatoes.
  • Juliana has a mean belly crawl.  She'll be up on all fours and crawling for real within weeks if not days.
  • We bought a double stroller.  How did I live without one?
  • We bought a recliner sofa and a recliner for our downstairs living room.  It'll be here on the 21st.
  • We're going to buy a new sofa and chair for our sun room once the other furniture arrives.
  • I'm planning on redoing our bedroom.
  • Liam throws a fantastic tantrum when he's pissed.  This morning he told me to "Go bye-bye! Go!" while pointing toward the door.  Think he wanted me to go away?
  • Juliana's laugh is beautiful.  At times, she sounds just like Liam.
  • Juliana loves her big brother.  She follows him around.  He's not so impressed and hit her in the head with a book this morning.  He pushes her over, too. 
  • Liam has become reacquainted with the time-out chair.
  • I reorganized my yarn "corner".  It's no longer a corner.
  • I need to buy a new answering machine.
  • I'm still knitting the Lace Ribbon Scarf.  It's boring me now.
  • I'm going to cast on for Gretel within the next couple of days.
  • We meet with the school district on the 20th.  I have a lot of paperwork to gather up beforehand.
  • I lost my car keys and house keys last week.  I've been using the valet key to drive my car.  I'm screwed if I lose that one.
  • I guess I should get a new key made from the dealer.

See?  We are so exciting around here.

    Your school district has good hours. Most of the schools here start around 730 or 8.

    Yay for furniture! (Except the time-out chair.)

    Gretel is lovely. What are you making it from?

    Dont knock boring – sometimes you need that. And a new couch that sounds like it’s perfect for knitting is very exciting in my book.
