Guess what I have. Did you guess? Did you? Well...did you guess New Windsheild? If you did, you would be correct. It even has a rear-view mirror affixed to it. Soon, the truck will be inspected and the license renewed. Ta-da!
I also read a book called The Forgotten Garden, by Kate Morton. I liked it much better than the Stieg Larsson book, but it was sad. It was sad the whole way through, pretty much.
I wonder if my mom is enjoying her trip in Canada. I miss her.
And also, also, I watched a really old Alfred Hitchcock film called The Lady Vanishes. It was kinda...inconsistant. Too slow in the beginning, some supporting characters can't act, a couple of entirely pointless scenes... But I did think it was funny how they made fun of the British pretty much beginning to end. Not that I think anything negative about Brits. I like them. But the jokes were funny, and told by British actors, so I figured I was allowed to be amused.
I made a jambalaya on Sunday for Josh to take to work, and I'm making another one tonight.
I also might be getting a cold, but I took vitamins and am going to try and get lots of rest. I'm ignoring my headache and sneezes. I am officially NOT sick.
And there is some other fantastic news, too: I can stop having a complex about Abbie and the potty training! She has made real progress. On Saturday, it was still as it had been before: we put her in underwear but spent most of the day cleaning up after her. And I talked to her. I said everything I could think of. I reminded her that her younger friends had already figured this out. I reminded her of all the bribes we'd made. I told her how big she was. I asked her if there was a problem. She told me she was worried that she would get splashed, so I assured her that we would just clean her right up. Sunday I went to taiko, and when I got there, Josh sent me a text that she used the bathroom correctly. And she has been ever since! Well, at home. And I still put diapers on her at night, but that's mostly because I don't have anyone to give them to. So - amazing and sudden progress. But that's typical Abbie. Everything she acheives is sudden.
Grant has been very sweet and nice lately, too. Life is good. Except that I have a sore throat. But I'm not sick!! Anyway, I'm trying to start planning his birthday party. It's so close! And so is the start of his kindergarten! Ack! If it weren't so darned hot, I'd be wishing for a few more weeks before August.
Anyway, now I want to hear how YOU are. How are you?? I hope you are having a happy Monday
