Skating....

Today I took Kara roller skating for the first time. Wow talk about walking into a time capsule. It hasn't changed in the past 20 years since I went there as a kid. Including the prices. Kids skate for $3! Parents just $1!. So sweet!. Anyway. I strapped on Kara's skates and off we went. She did pretty well on the carpet, but once we hit the rink it was so much more slick she had a harder time. But we did make progress and make it around the rink then took a break and made a couple more loops. I did wish that I had worn steel toe boots because my feet may have been a little banged up due to skates hitting them. By the time we were done Kara was tired, and me too. But it was fun!

My life as a movie in Itunes

So, here's how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
7. No cheating and doctoring your list to make yourself look cooler than the person you took this from

this sounds like fun...

Over exaggerated?

Did anyone else think that the Bob and the former blue teams exaggeration last night about switching trainers was a little much? Jeez it's not like some on died!
I must admit I was quite mad because they changed the time of the show and my dvr didn't record it! It recorded an hour of who wants to be a millionaire. But lucky for me my awesome husband downloaded it onto his playstation for me! It was even better with out commercials!

Scavenger hunting

So last night we went on a scavenger hunt. The list included getting pictures on the sundial bridge, in the mall and with a police officer and in a firetruck. I am happy to say that my team got them all! Just barely. Poor Jen was stuck with all the "rule followers" but at least we let our "rebel" get in the police car.

To prevent a heartattack....

I am warning you all that I am coming to woman's group tonight....
Can someone tell me where Jamie' s house is? I know the area that the subdivision is in but not which street.....

I'm bored why not....

1. Vacuuming – Run it through the house hitting the heavy-track areas; or, move most of your furniture to get as much carpet as possible? (get the heavy traffic area. I mostly sweep though do to the wood floors. I only move the coach to sweep under like once a week.)

2. Milk – Use well past the date on the carton, until it smells funny; or throw it out the day after the date on the carton? (between Tim and Jason this is not an issue. We go through 4-5 gallons a week.)

3. Childhood – What do you do as an adult that you weren't allowed as a child? (leave my stuff everywhere!)

4. Toilet Paper – Roll the paper over the top, or roll it under? (to me it doesnt matter. but I know so many people who have to have it the other way I put it over the top...)

5. Bed-Making – It's made every morning, occasionally, or not at all? (make a bed? maybe if company is coming.)

6. Most Hated Household Chore – Cleaning bathrooms; doing laundry; or dusting/vacuuming? (laundry never ends!).

7. Favorite Type of Vacation – Each day planned out with reservations; or, hit the road and go wherever you end up? (not planned. If we know where we are going I like to make reservations because they are generally cheaper on line but otherwise...)

8. Butter – Stored in the fridge, or in the pantry? (fidge....I don't have a pantry....I buy the spreadable butter for things like bagels)

9. Bathing – Shower or bath; and once or twice daily? (once normally.)

10. Handling Life's Curveballs – When life hands you a big lemon, which way do you tend to handle it: get upset then make lemonade out of the lemons; or smile and make lemon creme pie and figure you may as well enjoy the lemons you were handed? (be upset then try to see the bright side!)

Looooooooooong day
