Finally...new beds

for the boys' room. The boys have been sleeping on air mattresses and couches since they left for college. We finally broke down and bought new beds and bedding!


Kaitlin loves helping her dad put together things, so they had fun this morning.

Kaleb will be home early this evening for Thanksgiving week. He originally planned on coming Tuesday afternoon after work, but managed to get Monday and Tuesday off too.

Brandon will be here sometime on Wednesday. He's working on a big project at work, and it just depends on when they get it done. Hopefully he'll be here Wednesday afternoon.

My best friend, Melody, took me to the .38 Special concert Friday night at Hartman Arena.

We danced the night away and had a great time. It was pretty late when we got home, so she crashed at our house before heading home yesterday morning.

Yesterday was another busy day for us. We grabbed breakfast at McDonald's drive-thru and then headed out to visit mom. She was in a good mood and we had a really good visit. We went to Target to pick up a few necessities, and it was very crowded. People are already out in droves Christmas shopping! It was the same story at Sam's. Fortunately we only picked up a few things there, and were then on our way to Dillons. Yes, they were packed with everyone out shopping for Thanksgiving dinner - just like us! $120 later (just @ Dillons) we made it home. Late in the afternoon we met our friends Cindy and Jerry at El Rodeo for dinner. We had a good visit, and then came home and crashed. I was pretty tired.

Today is a typical Sunday. Corby fixed egg & cheese bagels for breakfast, read the paper, clipped coupons and got laundry started. Now it's time for Chief's FOOTBALL! They're at home against the Arizona Cardinals. C'mon Chiefs. Let's win this thing!

VACATION

On vacation for a few days (return to work on Thursday)...here's where I wish I was... I plan on enjoying some peace and quiet...and possibly, if I get motivated, getting some cleaning and organizing done in the office area of the basement. We'll see if that motivation arrives (it's not here yet)... Good news for Park City residents...recycling came to town the first of January. We are charged $4.00 month (added onto our already high water bill); but it has lowered the price of our trash pickup. The company P.C. contracted with has a much lower price than the company we use. Our company matched the price, so our trash bills went down (considerably) AND we get to recycle. We can recycle almost all our plastics, newspapers, cardboard, aluminum cans, cereal boxes, glass, motor oil, etc. We've got two big bags to set out tomorrow. Just doin' our part for the environment. We are without hot water right now...our hot water heater needs a new thermo-couple? It's a fair

Fun times with Lenore

While Lenore and Daniel were here, she had a library book panel at the Johnson County Library in Overland Park. So, on Tuesday afternoon, November 27th, Lenore, her friend Rachelle and I took off for KC. We had a great time visiting on the way up and back, and I didn't get tired at all driving! We stopped for a quick bite to eat at Arby's and filled up with gas at QT before heading to the library. It was an interesting panel featuring Bethany Hagen, author of Landry Park, which comes out next year; Gennifer Albin, author of Crewel, which was released a few months ago; and Lenore, whose book will be released on January 15. Here's the panel: Me & Lenore: Lenore & Rachelle: Gennifer, Bethany and Lenore
