My phone lines, and thus internet, have been down again. It’s actually happened several times in the last couple of weeks. Until we have things all straightened out, I guess you can expect me to disappear for a bit whenever it rains.
I wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who posted in my little blog roll call. It was so nice to hear from everyone. Sometimes I feel a little weird about this whole blog thing. It’s kind of like giving a speech where you can’t see the audience, a little odd. It was especially pleasant to see some old friends out there reading and I’m glad to have the chance to get to ‘meet’ some new people too! I really love it when people post comments. I like hearing what everyone has to say, so please feel free to speak up more often! Oh, and for those of you who invited me to check out your blogs, I’ve already been to them all sillies! I guess I should get better about posting comments.
We’ve been doing lots of working in the garden this weekend. We’re working on building raised beds and distributing the 2 tons of top soil that’s currently sitting in a big mound just outside my front door. Highly satisfying work (that is when I’m not smushing my fingers between large rocks).
Tomorrow night is a momentous occasion for us….**drum roll please**….my husband and I…are going on a date! Yes, by ourselves. Alone. With no little people. None. Very exciting. Wish us peaceful, happy baby thoughts! I suspect the little bub isn’t going to be very fond of our plans…
oh, do let us know how the date went! My husband and I have yet to go for the first big date and my boy is just a little younger than your youngest, so I’ll be excited to hear how he did!
It actually went really well. We stayed close to home and weren’t gone long, but he did great! He was starting to feel out of sorts and loose it just as we were ready to come home. We were only about a mile away so when the sitter called we were basically right there. We were also blessed in that we were able to have our wonderful neighbor (who he knows pretty well) stay with him. It also helped that he had his big brothers with him. All in all I think it was a success and we plan on trying again soon! Good luck to you!!
