Overheard at the Maki House...

Chris: Emilia, Do you know the best way to eat an elephant?
Emmy: No, How?
Chris: One bite at a time.
Emmy: Oh. (giggles)
Chris: So, what do you think is the best way to clean up your room?
Emmy: Ummmmm, One piece of crap at a time?

I'm a baaaaaadddd blogger...

So it's been a long time since my last post. I think of stuff to post everyday but somehow just haven't made to the computer to actually get it done.

Here are some of the things that have happened in our world...

Isaac got the green cast off and had a smaller red cast put on, got the red one off and is now in a brace for 2 weeks. He's back on the skateboard and loving it!

Emilia has also decided to take up skateboarding and, as usual, has caught on to it really fast. Isaac is not loving that.

Chris got a promotion to Assistant Produce Manager and transferred to the Hillsboro store.

R2D2, the rat, got loose. I found her. In the laundry basket.

Isaac helped me by washing dishes and somehow flooded the kitchen. I cleaned it. After I slipped and fell.

Finn, the cat, knocked a glass off the counter and broke it. I cleaned it. After I pulled glass out of my left foot.

Emilia dropped 3 plates, broke 1. I cleaned that too. After I cut my right foot.

My best bud, Beth, is in Africa and I miss her. A lot. I actually called her cell phone today just to hear her voice. (It was the computer lady instead.) Did I tell you I miss her? If I'm ever arrested, it will be with Beth.

Lauren is studying to get her drivers permit. Yikes!

Chris is taking vicodin and antibiotics. A wisdom tooth broke through, split another tooth and knocked a filling loose. He's going Monday morning to have them pulled.

I registered for the fall term at school. I'm taking 14 credits. Making up for lost time!

So that's about it...

for now.
