Indeed.  And she couldn't be more specific on when it would arrive in a particular state.  I asked if they had that info on their website and they don't.</p>

<p>Sleepy here too.  My 7 YO wanted to know why can't every Monday be a holiday.<br><br>
Good weekend.  Had a nice CSA pickup Saturday morning, then went to see my Dad and my in laws. I went to the cemetery where my mom is buried on Sat.  The cemetery is doen the road from a great bakery - you can not drive near it without smelling all of this bready goodness.  Mom used to always cook up bacon, egg, and cheese sandwiches for the family on football Sundays, so I stopped by the bakery and picked up some rolls for the next day.<br><br>
Had a nice LR in cool overcast conditions yesterday, showered, and then cooked up some bacon, egg and cheese sandwiches .  After breakfast, mowed the lawn, hung some new shutters, then plopped on the couch for the Giant game.  My wife made some kick-ass minestrone soup for dinner, and we had some home made apple cake for desert.  Pretty darn nice day, even if I am sore from my run.<br><br>

<p>howdy peeps.</p>

<p>Dropped Ann off at the airport this morning, we had a really great weekend!  Did some touristy stuff, walked miles (including the entire parade route of a neighborhood parade yesterday that my nephew was marching in with his pipe and drum corps) and had lots of great food. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Today, however, I'm exhausted...oof. <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/rolleyes.gif" title=""></p>

<p>Hey kids,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Travel day for Mila and me today.  Detroit, Memphis, SLC and Eugene.  I'm just killing time right now while I wait for Mila to get delivered back to me at DTW by her Aunt.</p>
<p> </p>

<p><strong>Kath</strong> - Gus looks very optimistic that he'll score some goods whereas Jack looks like he's figuring out the calculation needed to score some of the goods should you not provide them to him willingly.  <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/lol.gif" title=""></p>

<p><strong>Kath</strong>:  They might not be beggar-dogs, but they sure can hope you drop something accidentally!!  </p>

<p>I never post pix of my nie-phews since my sis is really cautious, but since you can't really see what my nephew looks like here, I'm posting this one...he marched with his pipe and drum corp yesterday for the first time (he just started taking bagpipe lessons):</p>

<p>Love the pics, everyone!</p>

<p>I've not much new to report.  Oh, except Evelyn has a new tooth.  This one is on top, opposite the first one she got down below.  I can't help but think the first one helped bring the second one out.</p>

He might be trying to work up enough brain power to attempt to make that calculation. Not the brightest bulb, our Jack. He is snuggly though. So he's got that going for him. Which is nice.<br><br>

Even with the dropped stuff though, 9x out of 10 they don't go for it. Even when they're laying around me.<br><br>

Dh is SOFA KING jealous. He got a practice chanter years ago so he could learn, but didn't keep up with it.</p>

<p>Back from my errands, and I timed it just right to miss FIL. And now I feel kind of bad, because his wife (step-MIL? that just sounds weird) bought some pots. Stupid catholic guilt. But ack, I just don't need the lectures or negative stories right now. </p>

<p>Fun: Old co-worker Geoff's wedding bowl came out perfectly so I'm going to wrap that and deliver it in the next couple days. I'm almost done with the last Stephanie Plum book, which is making me laugh out loud. Annnnnnnnnnd.... darnit, there was something else. Brain fart.</p>

<p>Hey folks.  Busy weekend, busy day all leads to a wiped out Beaker!!  I need to make sure this weekend is low key.  We have something going on every night this week so I am sure by the time Fri rolls around I will be a zombie!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Love all the pics!!  Keep 'em coming folks! </p>
