dyk I really should take a shower

dyk but I am having a very lazy day

dyk and lately I've been wishing we had a game room -- where we could set up a TV with the Wii --- and I just had an idea -- I could hook it up to the smaller TV -- they don't care the size of TV -- that is currently in Abi's room but now that her mania is subsiding she doesn't really need it since she's sleeping more

Dyk ooh, what did you get her?

Dyk Isabelle needs a Christmas dress and a birthday dress, and a dress for the wedding we're going to NY for.

Dyk oh darn, guess I have to go shopping!

Dyk Jaimie, what are the next steps for your friend? Or are there even next steps?

Dyk I'm sorry you and John are having troubles. I imagine all that travel and separation would be hard on anyone!

Dyk no wonder you couldn't post, but we missed you! I'm so glad you checked in!

dyk ok the Wii center is set up in the "game room" which is the area behind the couch

dyk and I had the perfect extension cord that holds 3 plugs so the entire thing is plugged into that and then only ONE cord is into the wall and I scooted dresser over and it's hidden and everything is all up out of Ellie's reach

dyk Dek while I was hooking it up got all the games and remotes and cleared out the top two drawers of the dresser for the game paraphanalia

dyk it's a good system!

dyk I don't do well when Sean is gone -- even just when he works late several days in a row

dyk we set up this life together --- one left to "run it" simply doesn't work

Dyk it was 34 degrees this morning.

Dyk my friend texted me at 7 to see if we wanted to walk to Starbucks. Sure, why not!

Dyk so Iz was bundled in knee high socks, a thick pair of socks over that, leg warmers, thick sweatpants, a t shirt, a long sleeved shirt, mittens, and a hooded sweatshirt.

Dyk and I wrapped a thick blanket around her in the stroller.

Dyk I think we walked about 3 miles total.

Dyk I thought it would be nice to stretch my muscles after my workout last night, but it just made me more sore lol.

Dyk I hope I make it to zumba tonight. Pete's been really busy at work, so he's not sure when he'll be home.
