08.26.03 HAPPY
BIRTHDAY to James! Also, HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY to Lil' Audrey! I
know I've been soooooo lagging on my journals. *sorry*
I just haven't had the time. Since returning from NorCal,
I've been pretty busy. Besides the usual cleaning house, doing laundry,
caring for my neglected garden, grocery shopping, downloading pictures
from my camera, and basically settling in...Aric and I have also taken
on some home improvements and sewing projects. The
pilot went out in our water heater yesterday.
Unfortunately, the discovery came at Ashlyn's expense. Ashlyn had one
of those exploding poopy diapers. The horrible ones where poop squished
out from the back and soiled her back and clothes. *Ugh!*...thought
those days were over. Last night, after Aric got home from work and went to re-light the pilot, he found out that our water heater was leaking. It must have been leaking for quite some time because we found water damage to the walls, mold, and corrosion to the pipes. Time for a new water heater. Sucks! I just hope the water damage wasn't too extensive. *sigh* Today I spent the day with Grace and the kiddies. We had lunch and went to the market for groceries. I spent the whole afternoon at Grace's...and tonight, we celebrated James' birthday (again) with a fancy home-cooked feast and a bunch of close friends. It was really fun. And I'm still stuffed. *burp!* We got back pretty late. I'm tired. G'Nite! Pictures from tonight:
