Oh my -- is it really almost 1:00 p.m.? We were up really, really late last night and I am moving really, really slowly this morning.
Happy anniversary, Mr. & Mrs. MT!!! (((
OKay & family))) So sweet to hear of dLO's compassion and concern for your dparents.
You know, LO's maturity, sensitivity, and kindness are certainly a testimony to his upbringing. There is truly no way to predict where your influence will reach, simply because of the influence you have had on him. He is blessed beyond words to have you & your dh in his life.
We went to see
We Bought a Zoo last night. (Yes, we do spend money like drunken sailors when I'm out of school.
) But the movie was very good. It is a true story, and very heartwarming. DS & ddil went with us and we all enjoyed it.
Also, found out @ Best Buy last night that the free 3G connection w/Kindle does NOT allow for total web browsing -- apparently it only allows for downloading books? I don't really understand how that can be. How can they block everything from 3G but allow everything for wi-fi??? But two different salesmen @ BB told me that same thing. Soooo... guess there's no such thing as a free lunch, huh? If I want to be "connected" to the internet 24/7, on the road, in the football stadium, etc... then looks like I'm just going to have to bite the bullet and get the iPhone. * sigh *
I really don't think I
need to be connected 24/7. I am much too addicted to the internet as is -- mainly to this site, though -- and it probably not a good thing for my marriage for dh to have to see me w/my head buried in the screen 24/7.
OH!!! And good news -- MAYBE -- for ddil!!! She unexpectedly was called in for an interview yesterday @ largest hospital near us, and she was very honest about the situation @ nursing home, and interviewer said their absence policy seemed a bit strict, and that they did not treat her courteously in the manner that it all ended, anyway. Interviewer told ddil to call her back next week if she had not heard from her by then... but ddil feels very hopeful.
