Daily Wrap-up - Bullet Style
I thought I would take a page out of Zoot's book and do a wrap up of the day Bullet Style. Not because my day was all that thrilling, but mostly because I am lazy.

  • I spent the morning leisurely reading blogs and attempting to comment on some of them. If you didn't get a comment it wasn't because I don't like you. It is more like I couldn't think of anything quippy to say. And god forbid I not be intelligent or funny when making comments.
  • Spent the early afternoon photo copying yet more paperwork. Cause we all know how much I love paperwork.
  • I then whipped myself into a manic frenzy and cleaned my kitchen. I bought one of those Mr. Clean Magic Reach things and my oh my how beautiful it is!!! I loves me a new cleanin' tool!
  • We drove down to Olympia to have dinner with CS's parents since his sister and our niece is in town from California. I spent the evening fielding questions such as, "Annie Missy (that's what she calls me) Annie Missy, what is work?" "Annie Missy, What is Christmas?" "Annie Missy, What are clues?" Did I mention she is 4 years old?
  • We got our court date of September 4th. We leave for Russia on August 28th.

So there you have. My wonderful fantastic very good day!!

Just for fun I will leave you with a B test. (B is my niece)

Where do squirrels live?
a. in a pond
b. in the tree
c. in a hole

Where do trees live?
a. outside
b. inside
c. outside in the sand

Where do candles live?
a. in Ernies window box
b. on a birthday cake
c. in the sink

Did you get the answers right?

Look at you sneaking in your court date just like you first snuck in Pickle's referral. Sneaky, a tad evil, but appropriate... kind of like book ends.

So yay. Yay. Yay. Yay. Yay. Yay.

And woohoo! Woohoo! Woohoo! Woohoo!

I'm so happy for you!

A Pickle Poem

Soon to hold your little pickle,
Snuggle, squeeze, kiss and tickle.
The best things come to those who wait,
So he must be Pickle the Great!

By the way I was so sure you were just going to let us casually know about court like the day before when you were already in Russia.
So so glad pickle is coming home.

Blogger Yeah So said...
I love how you just sneak that in there. Sneaky little sneak. Congratulations!!! Can you believe it, he will be home so SOON!!!! Inspired by Wendy, I offer my own prose:

Ode To Pickle

Pickle you're the cutest boy
the world has ever seen
I really hope despite your name
you really aren't green
