Grounded

I hate getting behind on here because then I feel like I have to catch everyone up and it stresses me out and then I put it off even further. I had a great birthday, thanks to all of you that sent such nice birthday wishes, cards, gifts, emails, calls...!!! I am so blessed.

The BIG thing that has happened from the last post is well, I did something really stupid. I always get the kids in the car before I open the garage door because I don't want to expose them to the cold unnecessarily. Well, yesterday we were all loaded in, I jumped in the car, pushed the button, started the car and started to back out...and heard a loud crunch. Evidently the door wasn't completely up. I had no idea what it was, I didn't even think that it was the garage door, I thought maybe a neighbor kid left his bike behind my car. I figured it out though and went inside to confess my sin. Brian handled it well, my man of few words became a man of one word, "okay". I know he was pretty upset though. I had to leave to pick Kendall up so Kate and I left and before I got home Brian had gotten the door back on its tracks and it looks fine. I don't think that the 'untrained' eye would even spot the bent part. My car however didn't fair as well and has some pretty nasty scratches on top. I'm hoping that a good wash/buffing will help, but we'll see. So that's it folks, I've been grounded from the computer. Well, not really but I've been a little gloomy.

Kendall has picked up on another thing that I say, more then once she has said to Brian, "How are you doing, honey?" She called him HONEY! We really crack up over that.
