Another Saturday



As usual I babysat the nephews this morning while my sister Lisa went grocery shopping. We watched some cartoons while we had pancakes. I tried to make them look like footballs. It’s hard to sculpture pancake mix as it falls on a hot skillet. After we ate, William got some of my scrap paper I keep by the phone to write messages on. He wanted to write letters to people. We wrote one to Harry Potter, asking him how to find the Quiddith game on the Harry Potter and Chamber of Secrets computer game. Then we wrote one to Santa, asking him if he found any more Christmas presents for us. Lastly, Ben and I wrote a letter to the Snowmen, asking them to take all the cold weather back to the North Pole, because we like warm weather. William declared that I had to put a PS on the end of that one—to leave a little cold weather because he likes it cold.

My Granny spent last night with me. She is here checking on her ornery brother who’s been sick. She’s going back home this afternoon. I had to bribe Ben to give her a hug. Isn’t that something… it cost me a quarter but…at least Granny left with a smile, all happy he hugged her so hard.

I’m at work now, wrestling with my printer. I wonder if I bribed it if it would work better?

Since my weekend plans were canceled I guess I’ll go have dinner with a friend tonight. Hopefully I’ll be home before the weather gets rough. I think we are going to mainly get rain—maybe some ice. No snow…I hope. Maybe the Snowmen will get mine and Ben’s letter today and ignore William’s PS.
