Library Visit (192/366)

“I must say I find television very educational. The minute somebody turns it on, I go to the library and read a good book.”

To the library this evening to restock our reading material.  StellaDella and I also dropped off our reading slips for the summer reading program.  She wants to win a giant Hershey’s chocolate bar.  One of the prizes in the adult program is a Nook - that’s what I’m going for.

HH was out of town at a meeting so for supper tonight, I did the lazy mom thing and purchased fast food for the munchkins.  Arby’s for DQ and MB and Wendy’s for SD.  SD had a cheeseburger kid’s meal – the theme of the meal was “Unleash Your Family’s Talents”.  The toy she received inside was these funny face glasses and some joke cards.  Here’s an example of one of the jokes ~
”Knock, knock. 
Who’s there? 
Isabelle. 
Isabelle who? 
Isabelle broken?…I had to knock.”
*rimshot*  Thank you, thank you!  I’ll be here all week.

Oy, what a day.  At work today, my PC froze up, then the monitor would not work.  So I switched out the monitor…still didn’t work.  Called the outside computer vendor we use and they came by the office and took the unit in to see what’s up.  Here’s hoping it’s just the video card.  Apparently, 2010 is not looking to be a good year for me and computers. ~ This evening was the wake for my Aunt.  I just hoped I could get through it without falling apart and I did fine.  I arrived at the funeral home about 4:30ish.  HH brought the kids with him in a seperate car.  DQ, MB and SD found the food spread in the lounge area and were thus occupied.  HH took the two younger ones home a little after 6 and DQ stayed with me until 8pm.  I will be going back tomorrow for the procession to church for mass and then to the cemetery.  It will just be me, the kids are going to school and HH will be going to work. ~ When I returned home tonight, I changed into a huge sweatshirt and my comfy PJ pants.  I put my feet up and am sitting at the computer to relax a bit before I head off to bed.  Goodnight.
