Sunday Roundup

--I got my final grade in college algebra yesterday via e-mail, a fairly respectable "B". Not too bad for an old lady who hasn't been in an algebra class since 1978.

--Mike & I had a delightful lunch yesterday with Adam H....who is even nicer in person. (I took pictures but screwed up posting them, so Mike has to fix that before I try it again.) We could've talked all afternoon I think, but we had to leave to go.....

--Buy fireworks for Bubs, who spent the night last night. He thought the firecrackers were pretty cool until Pa set off a whole string at once....too much noise for a little guy. But he liked the sparkling fountain things and then we came inside & watched "Charlotte's Web" until he fell asleep. He slept like a rock until....

--the dogs woke him at 5:50 am. I could've killed both of them (the dogs, not the kid). Sollie had woke me at 4:47 am, which didn't help any. Until a few minutes ago, Bubs was sitting in my lap while I was reading my blogroll...he was critiquing everyone's site design. He especially liked the dancing pickle at Steve's and the "b'oons'" at Natalie's. Now he's watching Sesame Street in Spanish, clutching a cereal bar that he insisted on having but won't let me open for him. "NO! MINE!"

It's starting out to be a very long day.

It was great seeing you two, too! Hope Bubs had a blast with Sollie. Sparklers--my gateway pyrotechnic!

Great going in Algebra!

Yep, they've been pretty inseparable the whole time...which isn't as cool as it sounds at 4 am. We decided he was still a little too young for sparklers, but he enjoyed watching Pa set off the fountain ones....as long as he was sitting in my lap.

Thanks, Bogie, it was a tough class for me and I'm really glad it's over.

Congrats on the B! Wow. I'm impressed! I think I'd be thanking my lucky stars to nail a C in algebra.

Hmm...no comment from Bubs on my site, eh? I'll have to put up lollipops, cotton candy, and Sollie.

Thanks Goddess. I was thanking my lucky stars that I passed, a B was just icing on the cake.

You could always put up more flowers. He loves those. Heh heh.
