Random Thoughts

Ralphie has surgery tomorrow. :( Hopefully it will go okay, and he'll come home pain-free. I feel a little guilty getting him neutered, but I guess it is the right thing to do.

The kids have changed their costumes yet again. Mimi is going to go as a ballerina/princess. You can be both, you know. Moe is going as a Wiggle. I am hoping he sticks with this because all I have to do is put him in the appropriate color and off he goes. He vacillates between a Wiggle and Oscar the Grouch. I have a lot of green fur. I guess I will make little monsters out of it.

Kevin fixed my sewing machine. I somehow bent the needle and it scratched the bobbin case. So after replacing the needle, it still kept breaking the thread. I guess that little bur was enough to do it. So, Kevin used the dremel and polished it right out. Thanks Kevin!! I was worried for a bit that it might be the end of my machine. I couldn't figure it out. He is good at troubleshooting.

This week has dragged on and on. Every day has felt like Friday. I think it has been because of the weather. It is very "bleh" here. The sun isn't shining on us. It is cooler, and very wet out. The kids still manage to get some swingset time in, but they also manage to get pretty muddy.

I am crocheting up a storm trying to get enough to open an etsy store. Kevin said he'd do all the setting up, so all I have to do is make and write up a description. I can handle this, I think.

I started reading a great book. It is a great read. I am hooked. In fact, I must go read some more now. I love reading while the kids nap. :)
