The sometimes amusing and boring life of being parents.

Roundup

I tried to post this week, but it is just so very hard to find the time. After Madison goes to bed, the last thing that I or Jeff want to do is get back on a computer. Again, we're going to try and do better this week.

We had HORRIBLE weather here this week. It hailed one early morning for 15 minutes, and it was quarter sized!! I think that damaged part of our roof, because a few days later when the wind was blowing 30 to 40mph, part of our roof blew off!! It wasn't much. It was a long the ridge row, and the roofing company actually came this morning and fixed it. I'm glad. I kept thinking that we were going to have more storms. We also had some flooding around here. I actually did something very stupid that I won't be repeating. There are several creeks around our house, and it's nearly impossible not to cross one when I leave to take Madison to daycare and go to work. Well, one of them had come out of it's banks and was way over the road. I thought it didn't look too bad, but I was wrong. It came halfway up my car door!! I was very lucky to get through it. Next time, I will be turning around.

Friday night we went over to some friend's house for dinner and to play some Wii. We had never played it before, and it was a blast. Jeff is of course wanting one now!! My friend's fiance said that he has been known to stay up until 4am playing it. I can see how it would become addicting. If it hadn't had been Madison's bedtime, I would have stayed awhile!! I liked Guitar Hero!!

We ran some errands yesterday. I had some Gymbucks from Gymboree, and so we went to the mall. Boy, that was a mistake!! They were auditioning for Gimme the Mike!! In case you aren't from around here, it's Tulsa version of American Idol. So, the mall was packed, and they had two areas where you could audition. Needless to say, we went to Gymboree, Baby Gap, and got the heck out of there. Today, Jeff went to the grocery store for us, and Madison and I snuggled on the couch. It was great. Then after Jeff got home we did some cleaning. It wasn't a very exciting weekend, but that's okay with me!
