March 22, 2007

No pictures to post because the camera is not working. Cinnamon and I have gone on a little vacation. We left this afternoon and it was cloudy but no rain and the perfect temperature. We went to the dance store and Cinnamon is set for the recital. Than on to a knitting store, Cinnamon was not has thrilled, but quickly changed her mind as a fire truck and ambulance pulled up outside. We were able to catch up briefly with Lavender than on to Mommy Gabs house. Tomorrow is a full day of Science City, The Toy Museum and whatever else we choose.

Nutmeg is home.....She came home Sunday night....had a nice dinner....Monday we went to lunch and went shopping for plant containers for her apartment.....Monday night we took Mandrake and his friends snacks and Dr. Pepper (they were out fishing).....we watched the first two Harry Potter movies Sunday night and the last two Monday night...up way to late both nights.....this morning I got up with a stomach virus.....so since it is raining out I think I will not be leaving my bed..... Friday I was so tired of knitting on the pie shawl so I started on a baby sweater......It has cables and I thought it would be a quick project to try a sweater and learn how to do cables....I have the front and back finished and have started the sleeves....

Where does the time go.....last Friday I got a phone call and we had visitors for the weekend....so our guests would not be bored we decided to take a little trip....someone(not me) bought a new laptop.....since two of my sisters in the past six months have had serious computer problems I did buy an external hard drive......than a little lunch...back home to play with new electronic toys....we had a great time....next weekend we will be visiting them....parent teacher conference went well this week.....I worked moms morning out this morning for another mom......beautiful weather this week for the most part so we have spent alot of time outside......made hotel reservations for summer vacation......we need to find something fun to do in June.......suggestions welcome.......

We have a new guest for mealtime....Not an exciting week....trying to get all errards and cleaning done so we can have fun over spring break.....Mandrake will be home today and tomorrow so I should be able to get alot done.....
