Mabel has waited long enough. She has suffered with regular television for over three months now and she could no longer avoid the pull of high definition television. So, to reward her for how hard she has been working on her physical therapy, we purchased a new TV. And just in time for Packer football. Mabel's request, of course.
School started for mama on Wed. and we had NO SCHOOL on Friday due to power outages from big storms that came through. The first storm hit around 3:30 on Thurs. Mabel was home safe and sound with Gammy, thank goodness, and Nathan was caught in his car for part of the storm. I was still at school and it was pretty scary. We all had to go downstairs in the office and there was no power. The rain finally let up and I drove home through lots of down trees/branches, etc. I must have seen 25 emergency vehicles. Then, at the end of my 2 hour drive home, another storm started. We had flash flooding, even in the city. Of course, I was exhausted after the long drive and the first few days of school, so I was headed off to bed early, around 9, and I thought I'd check the district website in the slim chance that school was canceled and it was! I was so excited because Nathan already had the day off to take care of Mabel so we all got to stay home together. Plus, I went scrapping last night so I actually had some time to prepare. I finally got going on Mabel's baby book. I'm only up to her baby shower, but it's a start!
