• Oy, with the poodles already!

  Well, it's official.  I'm hooked on Gilmore girls - the characters, the dynamics, the humor, the satire.  It's my sister-in-law's fault, really.  I watch reruns M-F...and I look forward to the sarcasm & irony played out in someone else's life.  I see glimpses of myself & my relationships with...others.  So the secret is out.  My guilty pleasure. 

  I could sit & analyze for you, but I'll leave that to private conversations.  On another note, I have been inspired to start reading again.  I bought Randy Alcorn's book Heaven, borrowed Kite Runner from the library & bought a paperback copy of Atonement for a good price.  Plus I'm reading an "oldie, but goodie" - Chuck Swindoll's book, Laugh Again & finishing our Bible study book, A Beautiful Offering by Angela Thomas.  I know I'm a multi-tasker and all, but I'm a little worried that juggling 5 books will be a challenge.

  We had a fun day today.  Our last day with Grandpa Debelak.  We went to the train museum & the kids had fun exploring a dining car & caboose, watching model trains, ringing the bell on a steam engine, running around a train yard, & hearing stories from the old men that volunteer there.  We had lunch at the Next Door Restaurant, a Mom & Pop joint where you call in your order from a phone at your table.  We walked around the Mall & borrowed books from the Library (relocated in the Mall while the roof that caved in during a wind storm is being repaired).  Then it was off to Freddy's for yummy custard & sundaes.  And we ended the day @ Meadowlake Park, feeding geese & playing on the playground.  I for one, am exhausted & I can't understand why my children are not!  All in all, it was a fun day.  After a busy week and another crazy week ahead, it was good to be out of the house.
