Funny Conversation

Here's one that made me giggle:

N: Mommy can I see your painted toes?
H: Yes.
N: Did you paint them with a paintbrush? (Here I'm sure he's picturing his watercolor paintbrush.)
H: Yes.
N: There black.
H: Well, actually they're plum.
N: Can I have painted toes?
B: No. Painted toes are only for girls.
N: I could have blue. Blue is for boys.

(Later that evening, when I recounted the story to Brian he was quite firm that no blue painted toes are not for boys.)

Neglecting the Blog

Bri at the Polish Restaurant, Szalas.

My 20 year reunion with some of my high school friends.

Feet are in midair as if he just collapsed there.

Our new patio door which we hope will stop that pesky water problem.
Also fixed the floorboards and drywall, but it's really hard to get a picture
from inside to come out with all the light shining in. Additional bonus:
the in-window blinds do a beautiful job of hiding all the grubby handprints.
