Monday: Leonora cut her hair. No she did not get a haircut, she cut her own hair. She told me later that it was in her way.
Tuesday: Leonora had ballet and asked for a pony on the way home. I find this hilarious.
Wednesday: I did laundry. Exciting, huh?
Thursday: Went tux shopping for Aaron (for performances) and camera shopping for me (for my birthday!)
Friday: I pruned some of the overgrown bushes around my kitchen window. I couldn't fit all the trimmings in the garbage can, but you can hardly tell I did anything from outside. It does let a little more light in though, which was my goal!
Saturday: I turned 30! Wow... scary... Aaron and I went out to celebrate! We saw Tron (for free!) and stopped at Red Robin on the way home. We split a burger and an appetizer, and couldn't eat it all!
Sunday: We ate my marvelous birthday cake that my mom bought from the Schwan's man! I highly recommend their chocolate cake! Mmmmmm!

Someday I'll have a table and be able to eat at it too
I have been living in my parent's basement since the end of May 2010. Can I just say, this is not the most comfortable nor pleasant of living arrangements? Don't get me wrong, I am grateful for a place to live and I know it's not the best of worlds for my parents or siblings either. And we all try to deal with the situation.
Today, I tried once more to move things around in the room we call the Rumpus Room. It is the room where the kids go to make a rumpus I guess. It is also supposed to be my kitchen, dining and living room. Now this room is not a small room, but it is also not really large enough to fulfill all of those requirements. And it also has become a storage area for some things that have been kicked out of bedrooms and what not. What I'm getting at is, it's crowded. So occasionally I spend my day moving things around in attempt to make something work. Today was one of those days. I'm still trying to decide if my attempt did much to improve things. I think mostly what I did was make more room to play for the kids. Not my primary objective, but I suppose it's something. Maybe next time, I'll be able to use the dining table... maybe.
