Today is not my favorite day. I figured I have a lot to get done today, and I was sure I could get them done, class gets out at 1:00, and that leaves plenty of time. Better yet I skipped math (shhh...don't tell my sisters) so I would have more time to get them done without causing Jessica to have to babysit too much longer. So these are the things I needed to get done today: Go to General Electric Company and get the trailer power in our name, go to DMV to get the trailers title switched over to us, go to Post office to get P.O. box (for the second time. See Megan, I do try), go to Towanda City office to finally get the power turned off at the old house, and go to the auto parts store to get brake pads (because my car is making funny noises and has that hot smell to it...). You want to know what I actually got to work out for me? I got the brake pads...and I can only hope that they are the right ones. I went to the DMV with the signed title in hand, but the lady tells me I need a bill of sale from Don...so on to the next thing. I went to the auto parts store -- success. Then I go to the post office in towanda and the lady tells me that I need two I.D.'s : drivers license and one of the following: Vehicle registration/insurance, morgage papers, or voters registration I.D....I don't have any -- the vihicle registration is still in my parents name, I don't have auto insurance (i know, tsktsk), and i have no morgage, and I am not registered to vote ( i know, tsktsk)...so I can't do that either....on to the next task: I go to the city office and turn off the power...somehow between when we moved out and now our bill became $140.00...but the guy got it down to $97 somehow ( I guess that's a small success). Then I come home....what did I forget to do? do you know? I forgot to go to the General electric...I'm just calling it a loss for a different day....
so, yeah...i'm a little peeved...oh well...I brought it all on myself.
I love all of you...I'm so glad emily got a blog!! yay!

Stranger Danger

Ok. So, we've talked to M about strangers a bit, telling her to be safe and what not. A couple of times she brings it up when we say no she can't do something and she says "because there are stangers?" or some such. We haven't talked about it recently, but apparently the message stuck: We were at Wal-Mart, had just finised checking out and J went to use the restroom and M wanted to get a drink from the water fountain -I was still a few steps behind, so M said "Mom will you come a little bit closer?" and I said yes, and she continued "because you wouldn't want a stranger to grab me." I smiled and said "No I wouldn't like that." And she said "You would say 'oh no! someone has taken my child!" At which point I couldn't help but laugh and tell her how much I loved her.

back to school

We had a great trip up to Idaho for a family reunion (J's side of the family) after a short camping trip with some of my family in Iowa (not family from Iowa, just where we met up). We've been pretty busy and summer has disappeared. It didn't help that I had summer classes,and only 3 weeks off. We got to do some rough scouting in Colorado, to see where we might likely live when we finally move. Quite a few good stories, but I split them up. When we were in Colorado Springs we decided to go to Seven Falls - where they told us the Mountain elevator is broken, so they will take $1 off our admissions. We agreed, not minding 185 steps....wait, what did J just agree to? So we went to climb said stairs, which were small, and steep and seemed to go on forever; about half way up - the first set of stairs - M gets tired of climbing (we saw this coming,and I didn't blame her, I was tired too!) so I take E from J and J picks up M (he's stronger after all). We push ourselves th...

halloween was lots of fun. we went to the Family Fall Festival at Aunt N's. M had lots of fun being dressed up...as a witch! She was adorable, and I appologize, but I have no pics. I completely forgot to bring my camera. Hopefully I can steal some from Aunt N. M had a skirt with fiber optics on it that lit up different colors, and she wore glow sticks as well. She had a cute witch hat, orange tights with bats, and a black shirt that says "my magic power is being cute." She even won the costume contest and got delicious Choxie chocolates as a prize. The chocolates were really cool actually because they were little cups of chocolate, made out of chocolate, with different flavors of soft chocolate in the middle...like caramel, pistachio, milk choco...etc. CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE!! We are really enjoying them. there is only one left actually. Oh, and I finally got everything finalized on the Buick my mom sold me, so now it is officially mine, tags and title!...
