I know it's been a shortened 4-day work week, but MAN, it felt like 10 days to me! I am SO glad it is Friday night!
The twins came down to work today and I took them to lunch at Schlotzsky's.
We love that place, and very rarely have a chance to go there. They are a bit pricey for a sandwich shop, but yum, yum, good! We traded vehicles - Kaitlin left her truck for me so I could get some cabinets from work. When I went out with our building manager around 3:45 to load up the truck, it wouldn't start! We had to jump start it. Fortunately, when I finally left work about 5:15, it started right up. I was worried I was going to have to get it "jumped" again. We will replace the battery tomorrow.
Brandon is disappointed tonight. He was unable to get off work next Saturday for the Rockfest concert in Kansas City.
He had already bought tickets for him and Kaleb, and his friend Owen was going too. Kaitlin and I were going to drop them off at the all day concert and do some shopping. At his old Dillons he just had to ask before the schedule was made up for the next week, but this Dillons requires 2 weeks notice. Since he just started on Tuesday, he doesn't want to do anything to "rock the boat". (I'm proud of him for that!) Fortunately, one of the girls at work wants to buy the tickets, so at least he will get his money back. He's now decided he'd like to go to the Foo Fighters concert in OKC in late July. I'll take him to that since he won't get to go to Rockfest.
Corby and Kaitlin went fishing tonight. Some daddy / daughter time! Brandon and I are hanging out together (Kaleb is working).
HAPPY 54th birthday to my sister RHONDA! We will celebrate with a family gathering at On The Border this Sunday.
I am listening to the newest Annie Lennox CD - Songs of Mass Destruction. AWESOME CD!
I've started keeping a list of books I've read. My niece Lenore has done this. I've read 1000's of books over the years, so I can only go back so far. I wish my kids would read more. Brandon will read books here and there, but the twins really only read Harry Potter books. I read to them from the time they were born, but I don't think any of them got my intense love of reading!
