Sunday: kitty

Travis and Allison came over briefly after church. Scarlet got to see the kitty. She got to pet the kitty too as long as Flurry was looking the other way. Needless to say, Flurry is not fond of small people. (She's been doing much better with big people lately though!) So she would hiss at Scarlet and Scarlet would just laugh like it was the best thing. Phew. I'd rather have her laugh than be scared of Flurry.

Uncle Ben also helped her play the drums for a bit.

Saturday: something I like about Michigan

I like that when you go to the gas pump, you can use the little lever thing in the handle so that you don't actually have to squeeze the handle the whole time you're getting gas. That was definitely something I missed in New York.

Friday: windows

Today we got new windows installed. It is rather exciting because the old ones didn't really move anymore and one had a large hole in it into which I stuck a sock to prevent a draft. However, because of this I ended up staying in the basement with Flurry most of the day. I put a box at the top of the stairs to prevent her from getting out, but if she really wanted to she could get out. She just didn't really want to as long as I was in sight.

Thursday: tornadoes

This morning I sat in a waiting room for two hours while mechanics worked on making the car feel better. A news show was on...I think FOX news, but I wasn't paying much attention. During that two hours, I feel like I heard the same thing over and over and over about the tornadoes..."This is a terrible disaster that will never be forgotten."

Needless to say, by the end of the two hours I was glad to get out of there. And that made me feel bad, because I was so sick of hearing about the tornadoes, but there are lots of people that are affected by them.

Dusty and Laura are OK, but have left for a little bit. Here's a fun conversation about meat in a cooler...

Tuesday: girls' night out

Tonight I went to a girls' night out. It was fun...we stood in line for quite a while for a massage, but it was worth it.

Besides that, today felt rather busy. But since I took a long nap in the middle of it I'm not sure that was actually busy.

Monday: lost lost found lost

Lost: 2 phone chargers, although 1 might be in storage. One is very lost.

Lost: the top sheet of our white sheets. How did it get separated from the rest of the set?

Found: one phone charger! It was in a bag with the signed Frisbee and was the very last thing I unpacked.

Lost: one recipe for a bisquick/salsa/chicken/cheese meal. It had been lost in NY, found while the movers were packing, and is now lost again. I haven't looked on the internet for it.

Monday: +

I took a pregnancy test today. I almost waited to take it because we only have one left and I didn't want to get a negative result and have to buy more. But I also have been feeling rather weird the last few days and our curiosity got the better of us. So I took the test. And it was positive.

Yay!

But it's also a bit scary.
