Woes of the Week

-

Okay, well I haven't blogged in a long time - a week to be exact.  Truth be told it has been a hard week.  Just for reference, my work computer died, taking with it three (3) years of legal work.  Yes, I know that I should be backing up regularly - lesson learned.  Thankfully, the I.T. guys recovered my hard drive so I didn't actually lose anything.  Next my laptop was not compatible with my printer/scanner/fax.  After long phone calls with Brother I was able to get everything worked out.  My new computer came in Friday and I spent the bulk of the day loading all necessary  programs on it.  This meant tearing my house apart looking for Word disk - which turned out not to work.  Then I tore the house apart again looking for Michael's Word disk.  Thankfully everything works now, but it has been a stressful week.

On to more pressing matters - I will attempt to catch up on the past week.  On Saturday we took the boys to the park.  Finn and Sam both took a turn on the swing, but the part that Sam liked the best was walking up the slide.















I wish that I could remember more about the work week - but not a whole lot is coming to mind.  Deniece had surgery on Wednesday and is recovering well.  She also learned that she does not have cancer so that was an answered  prayer as well.

I had several court appearances this week so the boys were with Victoria Monday through Thursday.  On Friday, the boys were home with me.  We spent all day at home cleaning.  The boys were really well behaved until Michael got home and then Finn had to go to timeout.  Finn pitched a huge fit.  Sam was curious about his brother's predicament and decided to go check on him.   





Since was it was nice outside we ate our chicken noodle soup outside on the patio.

Today we woke up at 6:30 to prepare for our big day at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure. The shuttle from the hotel left for the park at 8:00 meaning that we had to be downstairs and ready to go at 7:45. At 7:30 we realized that we had to book our spot on the shuttle the night before. Oops. For two people with jobs requiring close attention to detail we completely fall apart in our personal life. Fortunately we were able to purchase a ticket and catch the 8:00 shuttle anyway. The shuttle ride was interesting; we ended up sitting behind a young couple that could have left about 90% of their PDA in their hotel room and it still would have been too much for my taste. When we got to the park we noticed our ticket required that we show I.D. Well, I didn't bring my purse with me. Oops. After reading and rereading the fine print, we lawyerly types figured out an interpretation that would allow me to get into the park without producing photo i.d. We geared up for the fight

Wednesday night I got a strange phone call from Michael; he asked if I could get an ice pack and a couple ibuprofen ready for him.  Check it out . . .   He went to the doctor Thursday morning and came home with a boot, a pressure sock and a pair of crutches.  Looks like he will be out of commission for approximately two months.

On Sunday morning we slept until 9:30!  Finn was up with the sun, of course, but Sam slept until a little after 9:00. When we got up the sun was shining so we decided to hang the boys gourd bird house from Mr. Gene.  So far we have really enjoyed going to church on Sunday night.  Finn specifically told me that he likes night church better because he can get up and play.  The boys had a pajama party at school today.  It was in honor of Ms. Jenn's last day before maternity leave.  Finn was very excited to show his friends his godzilla feet. Big morning for Finn.  Last night was the first night that we have not put a nighttime pull-up on Finn.  He woke up with a dry bed!
