Road Trip To Moms

Early up and out of the house today so we can make the 2 hour drive down to see mom for an hour or so. Today our goal has been to get the trip done early compared to last week when there was a lot of traffic and it was right at her lunch time when we showed up. All things that lead to a longer travel day to visit her.

We did not hear much of anything this past week other than one phone all from her that I missed and then another she made to Kelly telling her that she cannot find her stuffed Nemo toy I bought her. I am sure that it is around there somewhere and she just misplaced it.

Back Home

Once back home it was time for lunch, leftover pizza from last night and then getting back into clearing out the baby room so I can start to build her furniture.

We stopped at Michael's Crafts last night and I had the idea to get some of those big wooden letters to spell out Zoey over her crib or on her wall somewhere for decoration. I know it is a fairly common thing that parents do but I was inspired to do so on my own which also surprised and excited Cicely.

Not that it's rare that I do things like this but more-so that I once again amazed her with my "softer side" I guess ha ha. I just thought it was a cool idea, a little bit of fun for us and something baby will probably hate and want to get rid of when she is an angry tween, teen or whatever her evil hate the parents stage ends up being.

Garage

Had another "great idea" on the way home to stop by Sears and order one more of the large floor to ceiling Craftsman cabinets for the garage since they were not only on sale but Sears only had one left. Usually this means they are not going to be carrying them much longer. I wanted to get one more while the getting was good because I want everything in the garage to match. So yea, on top of everything else I need to do I have managed to create yet another project that I need to get done. Oh well no biggie, I can always use the space and it will look great next to the other one as well.

Complete

That will have to do it for today. I want to work in the garage a little bit before calling it a night and watching some TV or parking my butt on the couch surfing the internet for the evening. The visit with mom went well today, she is looking so much healthier and rested. Her arms were a little bruised up but I guess it had something to do with an altercation with the lady that was sharing the room with her when she first got there.

Kelly and Dan showed up just a little while after we did so that was cool We all went in while mom had her lunch and then we walked around for some exercise after. By the time we were ready to head out, mom was laying down ready for a nice cozy after lunch, afternoon nap. I am sure that was a busy afternoon for her compared to most of the days.
