I woke up feeling like myself yesterday so I guess I am back to being 'ab' normal. 
I am waiting for the water heater installer to get here. On top of being so very darned sick on Monday when I finally was able to get up a bit I found that I did not have any hot water for a shower. Insult to injury.
TB, I have over 3,000 songs on my computers. What kind of music do you like? Kids like repetition cause that is how they learn. It comforts them. Kids memorize books and then like to think they are reading. It is a first step. My rule is one new thing for one old favorite. Variety is the spice of life. I also quote Auntie Mame, clean version.
Ang, please tell Will that I got pinched yesterday even though I had a green frog watch on my purse. If I had tried the underwear things my friends would have asked me to 'prove' it.
I believe that this is the first time I have ever heard of a father getting blame for anything. I think it is worth the risk for Will and his dad to have time together. I love the fact that his dad is not only willing but wants to have him with him. 
JM, folks are odd. They move to different climes and countries and insist on living as they always have, no matter the inconvenience and stupidity. I am with you on the zeroscape, less work as well. If I were planning on staying in this house the rest of my life I would shell out the bucks to have my backyard (small) paved. I agree with Ants on putting the table out in the yard to get rain. I once bought a new winter coat and boots and gloves and it did not snow a bit that year. The cost of those items versus the cost of heating the house would mean that I should buy such each and every year.
Consumer Reports says that refrigerators with ice makers break more often than ones without by many times. I use old fashioned ice cube trays when my ice maker breaks. I have also found that I can put a bit of water in the bottom of my cups, color coded, and avoid ice cubes altogether. I hope the dentist trip goes well. Have you thought to look for a dentist that works especially with children?
Ants, I hope you did not have a whole lot of green 'stuff' to clean up. Surely they would not waste your talents on such?
Diva K, I was talking about you the other day and most of it (okay, all of it) was good.
If the water heater guy gets here pretty soon I might have time to paint the doors, some a second coat. Burgundy. Beautiful. I cannot do anything until he gets here because I do not hear and have to be right by the door.

Do you ever want to see the color green again? 
According to the pharmacy that they are seeing alot of OTC pills are being bought ... so alot have been trying to fix themselves athome rather than going to the hospital...
for everything!!!!
We broke records today and got 75 degree weather. I am so happy to see DS outside running around. 
for multitasking! We probably will go to TL, but I'm not sure when, especially since it looks like they pushed the re-opening date. Are you hearing March 28? I don't think we'd make it that early in our trip, since it's our first day, but you never know. . . . 
for your table turning out okay, and 
Now to figure out what to use the rest of the Walgreen cards and Target cards on. Life is good!
I think an involved father is very important, even if imperfect. Do you ever go on the road with them? Bet your husband does not get lost in parking lots though. 
Will you post a picture of your table when it is done? I'll show you mine if you show me yours. 
BTW, those tiny crockpots are more for a bit of fondue etc than real cooking. Might I suggest that you visit a local buffet restaurant that offers "Buy by the pound" and load up on a variety of things. It is about $4 a pound here at some times of the day and while it might seem a bit pricey you can get a wide selection of salad stuffs, fruits and entrees without the work, waste or shopping. Heck, if I were you, young and single, I would eat out most every meal and just keep a bit of cereal and some soups on the shelf. 
dust flowing!
