Waking up to a jackhammer is not a fun way to be woken up. Of course it was at about 8am but you know me, I hate getting up before 9am. Now that I was awake, Nate & I watched some PBS for about an hour and then headed downstairs. Half way down the steps, the doorbell rings. Nate freaks out from excitement and tries to run down the steps. He's a little too young to be doing that!! It was the jackhammer guy asking if I could back my car up a little. The city is fixing the water pipe or something to the rental house. Once back inside I made breakfast. Over-easy eggs, biscuits & gravy from a couple days ago (it froze/thawed out fine), and milk. Joe slept until breakfast was ready.
The previous owners had the utilities shut up yesterday (5-4-09) so we're going to go to the Board of Public Works and have the electricity turned on in our name. And since they had it turned off, we went over and finally were able to get the windows all open to start airing it out. Then we got to go outside and rake the yard. Well we got to rake the dirt where the yard will eventually be. I raked with no gloves and now I have calluses and blisters. Oh well. Dad came down with a firepit and burned some wood. I grilled some hotdogs on it. Joe & Dad worked in the yard while Nate took a nap and I read. Mom was on her way to our house when I went to work.
At work I was on nacho duty most of the night. Now that I'm on the Booster Committee I get to do all that fun stuff. (It gets me off the phones so that's cool!) I made some guacamole and took it in. Everyone that tried it, loved it!
I'm thankful for Cindy because she watches Nathan once or twice a week.
