- No doubt that the Pittsburgh Penguins had a great game last night, but they were lucky that the Washington Capitals forgot to bring their A game. Game 7 of the playoffs is not really the time to have a complete meltdown, but it worked out great for us, so who cares.
- In the category of "they grow up so fast"....
(a) The other morning I got up for work and when I went into the main bathroom I saw that Kate's pj bottoms were on the floor along with her underwear. I figured that Bob got up with her due to an accident in the middle of the night. Not the case. When Kate work up after I had left for work, she told my mum the story of how she thought she had an accident, got up and went into the bathroom where she took off her pj bottoms, went to the potty, went back into her room to get new pj bottoms and climbed back into bed and fell back asleep. And to quote Kate "And I didn't wake Mommy or Daddy up at all". I am amazed that she did this by herself without calling out to one of us but then I recall the few times that Bob has found her sitting in the hallway by herself around 4:00am and asking him what he was doing up.
(b) The kids has just been put into their beds when Kate, as usual, starting singing and talking to herself. Adam called out across the hallway "Kate could I just have one night without your singing?". In a completely unrelated issue, I was heard earlier in the day asking the kids if I "could have just one day without you two fighting".
- With all the news about how everyone should spend money to help jump start the economy I figured I would go out to get new additions to my spring wardrobe. Sadly, I came home empty handed. I have apparently exceeded the age range for most of the stores at Ross Park Mall, and even on the things that I might have considered buying, the quality was lacking. I am not going to spend $50 on a t-shirt that looks as if it is going to fall apart after the first wash. Plus although I have casual dress at work, most of the items on the racks are way too casual for work. Hopefully a clothing chain will realize that there is a market for people in my age range with some money to spend.
