Karrie's Box of Thoughts

Well $350 later…. I have a new alternator and my car is running again. Yeah! Can you guess how excited I am? Crap! Like I needed this right now. Oh yes, what a lovely evening last night was! Well, parts of it were – Since I was stopped dead in my tracks, I was able have a nice long chat with Jules. A nice silver lining to a rather dismal evening.

My oh my! Are my kidlets beat this week. And it’s only Wednesday. Em started dance classes again this week and she has come out red-faced and panting like a dog. I have NO sympathy! I told her practically everyday over summer vacation to keep up with her stretching and at least do the Pilates video a few times a week. But NOPE she didn’t.

Glenn has been in squirt-rep tryouts since Saturday. Everyday he’s had to battle it out. Last night when Dad and Glenn picked me up from my poor dead vehicle, the little guy was wilting. He’s totally beat and he has possibly two more days of this, if he makes the cut. If he doesn’t make the cut, he has to go back this Saturday and Sunday for “C” evaluations for the “in-house” hockey teams. I would like to feel bad, but there’s hubby telling him “I told you so”. Because while I was warning Em not to just sit around all summer, Hubby was warning Glenn he had better do some “dry-land” work to keep in shape. Neither one of them did squat! So now they SUFFER! HaHa! I know, we’re evil. But, we’re also right.

And now I must be off. Had to hitch a ride to work with Dede and came in late. Oh and while we’re driving in I checked messages on my phone thinking it might be the dude about my car. Wrong! It’s my mother saying she just wanted to check in and btw dad’s going in tomorrow for a “procedure”. Something to do with the arthritis in his back. Great! So I guess my lunch will be spent trying to find out about this “procedure”.

Chat later.
