Maisie is still really cute.
I was able to ride my bicycle to work yesterday from the bike shop. It was a little hot, but it is so nice not to have to be stuck in the UK/BCTC traffic. Besides, it's a pain to find a parking space in our lot at 10:30 am. Using the panniers really cools down the ride.
The transportation department finally gave L his harness to wear on the bus.
I cast on for the second kilt hose stocking and for a sock for M, just like B's socks.
My 8:00 class is fun--they ask questions, make comments, and crack jokes. It really helps at 8:00 in the morning.
Choir started last night.
It's not raining (yet!) so maybe we will get soccer practices in today.
The Funny:
Maisie seems to think it is her job to herd Murfy into the crate. Then, she runs out, as she's not a sheep, you know.
M has begun referring to her at the Maisinator.
L is always funny. His latest idea was that we (the whole family) should go to the Chinese buffet, and the boys will have Chinese food and I will just eat ice cream. He couldn't understand why Daddy thought that it might not be such a great plan. (Ice cream is good--but it would be hard to resist the Chinese food!)
The Annoying:
My stupid car now won't unlock on the driver's side door with the key. So, I can't lock it, because the passenger side front door won't open from the outside. It will lock and unlock, though. The two rear doors have to be manually locked and unlocked, so that doesn't help. I could crawl through the hatch, but that's just ridiculous. So what I really want to drive is one of these, but in red, of course. Not that it is going to happen, but I can wish.
Even more annoying is the fact that B had another wreck. This is the third one since we've moved here, the second one in front of our house, and the second one for his beloved Montero. None of these have been his fault. In fact, the police reports all basically say that driver 2 was minding his own business when driver 1 hit him. The first wreck was the crazy spider lady hitting B's parked car and totalling it. The second was the fender bender when the lady behind him failed to notice the big green SUV in front of her stopped at the stop light. This one was because the lady (in a hurry to buy her POODLE an Arby's roast beef sandwich) decided to save 2 seconds and come around B on the left as he was turning into our driveway. We have some really conscientious drivers around here. We just want to know why it's always B's car, and not the one that we wouldn't be so upset about.

Of course it is the nicer car. Even though my car was a 93 with a ton of mileage on it, it still was in great shape. But I did get a nice new car out of it. That I have to pay on.
hey! SOrry to hear about the wrecks...ugh...... and the locks. We're still stuck in Dayton with car problems. The suburban's (1999) security system went nuts and thought we were using the wrong key-- and once it starts it kills the gas.... can't get anywhere with no gas. The dealer got a new module and is putting it on now..... said it would be done by 11am...and then moved it to 2pm...it's 2 pm and still no call.
