When about all I have to post is a Calvin cartoon.

The baby is doing better – I want to say thanks to everyone who expressed concern. I’m home with her today “just in case” since basically all she did yesterday was poop (and not in a pretty way, but I told myself I would not divulge TMI about this so that’s all I’ll say)

Random nonsense:

Our new DSL should be on tonite, after we get the kids in bed I may try it. We’re about two miles from the CO so I’m hoping for pretty high speeds, but with our town you never know (phone lines are older than I am, probably).

I’m eating too much ice cream (Leon is getting laaarger, if you know what I mean) but the good news is I’ve virtually stopped drinking alcohol. So that’s why you haven’t seen any drunken posts in a while. Of course, now what’s my excuse for my crappy writing? Dunno. I’ll blame it on the flu bugs in our house.

It’s been over a week and I still loave our new washing machine. This puppy cleans quickly, and spins so much water out that the dryer is working about 50% faster (what used to take 90 minutes now takes less than an hour). Of course there are a zillion variables to that but I really don’t dread washing blankets anymore.

And tell me, what is it with you women and zippers? The baby is in a sweatshirt that zips up (easy access in case of, you know, hurlage) and she will not leave it zipped up. She goes all J-Lo and has it about halfway down, then Goes Wild and it is all the way open, at which point she comes over and insists that I zip it back up for her (she can’t do that at all) and the process starts all over. Hmmph.
