Labor Day weekend

Well, it was a fast weekend.

Bruno drove home early, what a great surprise. He was home for dinner, and the kids we so happy to see him. (As was I!)

Saturday and Sunday were spent getting the house back in order, doing some projects. Our computer desk literally fell apart while he was gone, so he stopped in NH and found one he liked, took a day to put it together, it's huge. Then we hd to do the standard "argue about how the room should be laid out" thing, then we finally got it all done Sunday night.

Monday we spent at the beach.

Monday night, tired and worn out from the beach, I went to pop my iPod into my iHome in the kitchen so I could listen as I made dinner, and my iPod just died. A complete and total death. We spent ~3 hours troubleshooting it, and finally realized the hard drive was toast. It's 1 month from being out of warranty, so we are shipping it back and having them repair/replace. We have to pay shipping, so it looks like it's just a $30 cost. That's better than $300 to replace. But ow, to have to go a week or two without it. And to top it off, Bruno bought me a TomTom GPS so that I could play my iPod through the TomTom and now my iPod is dead. Fate, you are a cruel mistress at times.

Bruno got to see the kids get off this morning. Darby must have known something was up, as she wouldn't let Bruno put her down and hung on for dear life until her bus pulled up. He flies out this morning and isn't back until very late Saturday night. So, another week of single-mom'ing it.

I miss him already.

Off to Jazzercise (good grief, I love Jazzercise) and then to my governor's autism plan sub-committee meeting.
