I am sure you have all heard about Ed McMahon and his wife hitting every talk show out there telling their sad story about how they are going to have to move out of their $6.4 million home because they cannot afford it, and he cannot get a job, etc. Well, Andrew and I might be right there with them with everything that is breaking down and malfunctioning in our lives.
The latest is Andrew's car. It is going to be $2500 to fix that. It is not even worth that much and we hardly paid that much for it. The cable and internet also broke on Thursday, although they did get that fixed on Saturday (loose wire) and we found a mouse in our house on Saturday (it is finally nice outside - live there!) .
Other than all that drama, the weekend was fine. With no car, cable or computer (or money for that matter), we thought it would be interesting to see how many things we could do without having to pay. We did pretty good. Went to the dog park, took Reagan to the park, went to the Eagan Art Festival, went to the Lynx game, went to church, went swimming and played tennis twice. Not bad. We also managed to get free lunch when we stopped at Home Depot to get foam to plug up the holes we thought the mouse (and I am sure his many friends) might be living in.
Nothing too exciting this week. Andrew has a hockey game and a Lynx game and I am going to the US Women's Golf Championship - all for free. Reagan has her first birthday party on Saturday for her "boyfriend" Dominick. He is 5 - going for the older men already. Way to go!
Here is a photo of Reagan and daddy from the Art Festival.
