Pets. I swore I'd never let them watch it because I had seen it once
when Augie and Amanda were little and I hated it, but I caved. It's
kind of growing on me.
2) It also helps that Izzy very cutely sings along (in tune, I might
add) with one of their songs.
3) Cross your fingers that we're getting a new car this week. Matt is
pretty sold on the Nissan Versa - now we just need to shop around and
find a good used one and see about financing it. I will be a free
woman soon!
4) So far I've been out driving by myself twice now. Gotta say, I
don't know why it took me so long. Cross your fingers for me that
Chicagoland drivers don't kill me for going the speed limit.
5) Alice starts school in two weeks - yes TWO WEEKS! I'm not even
slightly sad about it. Her Father, on the other hand…
6) I still haven't started Alice's dress. I think I'm more concerned
that I'm gonna suck at it than I thought. My hope is to get it done by
the time she starts school. If it turns out nice I may just have her
wear it for her first day of school!
7) If not I'll proudly display it at the back of her closet.
8) I'm still dealing with bug bites from hell from The Tug. Oh I
haven't talked about The Tug yet? Someday I'll get around to it.
9) Alice and I have been having much better days lately. Honestly, I
think the problem was as much me as it was her. I've put in a huge
effort to be more patient with her and to walk away and calm down
instead of losing my cool and it's made for a MUCH more enjoyable
week. Time will tell, but hopefully this was the solution.
10) We got a survey from Days Inn about our stay this weekend. I had
to laugh because I was absolutely going to contact corporate about the
rediculousness that was that hotel and now I don't have to. Nah, I
will most definitely still be writing a complaint letter to make
absolute sure they are aware of the problems with this particular hotel.
It wasn't exactly Bates Motel bad, but it was bad enough that
corporate should know what their name is being affiliated with. It was
gross and had HORRID food just like any other place, but the big thing
that got me was that our door did not latch. And when we told
management upon check out their response, "oh yeah, we know." Uh,
what?! Needless to say Matt and I have already decided we will not
stay there again next year. Even if we end up paying twice as much to
stay at The Holiday Inn that we usually stay at.
