eh… May 11, 2008

We spent most of today at the house.  We went to super walmart for a little while.  Returned the crazy keyboard and ended up spending a lot more than we expected to.  I have been spending a lot of money the past little while.  Each year we get some money back on taxes and I will put some of it away and then end up spending it.  I was going through our bank account trying to figure out why the balance was a little less than it should be.  After double and tripple checking I found that Scott didn’t get paid on the first.  Usually I would know right away, but there is still some extra money floating around so it didn’t hit me right away.  We also got our tax rebate, or whatever they are calling it now.  I guess I just figured, oh there is money there so it must be pay, but nope.  He has to wait until Monday to go ask someone about it.  I’m glad this isn’t one of those times when we are waiting for the money to pay bills.  It came at a good time because we need to put some money away to pay a speeding ticket Scott got a few days ago.  I will not say how much it was, but it was really bad.  Usually I would say just pay it and get over it, but they could suspend his licence and I’m sure our insurance will go up.  I hope he can go to court and work off the points.  Even if we have to pay the full amount (oh please no!)

So Scott just went to let Gizmo in and saw that he had gotten out of our temp. fence.  Crazy dog.  I guess its good its night time and he doesn’t want to run and play.  I have found that when he is loose and I want him to come to me its best to just tell him to sit and go pick him up.  It works better than calling him.  Crazy animal. 

Serena didn’t cry but for maybe two minutes tonight before she went to sleep.  I’m really glad for that.  Her new room is set up almost like her old one was.  Its a bigger room and all of her toys are in there rather than being in the living room too.  I guess we should open her door up tonight because I’m not sure if we will hear her calling us in the morning or not.  When we were sharing a room with her sometimes I would wake up to see her standing there looking at me.  That is a picture of her in her easter basket.  She has a thing for getting inside of things.  She likes baskets and boxes.  Today she was sitting in Gizmo’s dog bed.  She fell back out of it and then got up and right back in it.  Gizmo and Yummy like to lay on pillows in the bottom of a small book shelf.  She thinks its fun to kick them out and get under there herself.  She is quite the character. 

Well Scott just turned on the TV and before he gets hooked on anything I want to go to bed.  Becca, thanks for the birthday card (and thanks Nate for the picture) it really reminds me of us.  I got the little letter from Jackie too, hehe.  Scott says ”thats all that was in there?” haha it was cute.  Aunt Linda I will get online in the morning before we go to Mom’s and send you some pictures!  Here is one to tide you over.  Nite!
