A Day in the Life of London

Mike likes these frozen soft pretzels that you just pop into the microwave for 30 seconds and enjoy so we always have them and a little container of cream cheese handy. Well the other night Mike fixed himself one but only ate half of it so he gave the other half to London. Upon receiving the pretzel, gently taking it out of Mike’s hand, London proceeded to toss it up in the air and then once it landed, bounce at it. He did this I know for a good 10 minutes. I kept telling him to eat the pretzel but that just made him more playful. He ran around the living room with the pretzel sticking out of his mouth, occasionally tossing it in the air. He would stand there, with the half eaten pretzel in his mouth, starring at us until we would say “Eat the pretzel London” and then he would repeat the behavior I mentioned above. After about 45 minutes of this, he brought the pretzel over to me. I told him I did not want it, for him to eat it. He tossed the pretzel and it landed by the Christmas tree and London left it there and went into the kitchen to get a drink of water. All that playing must of made him thirsty. When he came back into the living room he went under the desk and fell asleep. He snoozed for a couple of minutes. When he awoke from his short catnap he went over by Mike, who was playing a game on the Xbox. Mike patted the bed beside him and told London to come lay down. London started to get on the bed and then must of remembered the pretzel that he had previously been playing with. He back away from the bed and trotted over to the pretzel which was still laying where it had landed when he tossed it. He picked it up. And with the pretzel sticking half way out of his mouth, he trotted back over to the bed and laid down beside Mike and feel asleep.

Short Entry

Well, Mike and I celebrated our 4 year wedding anniversary this past Friday and Saturday. He went a head and gave me my early Christmas / Anniversary present. It was a 60 GB Ipod. He had the back inscribe “UR the beat of my heart iLove you”. I absolutely love it!

Snowing? It’s Not Even Halloween Yet!

Well, the other day Heather (the long lost friend I tried to find and mailed her a letter) emailed me. We have been talking through Yahoo Messenger. I am so happy to finally be in contact with her again. It’s great! She was the last close female friend I had. It would be nice if she lived closer to me so we could get together and hang out like we use to.

Well, Monday night it started snowing like crazy and we got about 2 inches. Tree limbs where breaking, power, cable & phone lines where going down and schools where closing. We hadn’t even had our first good frost of the year yet. Our flowers still had blooms on them! Trees still had their leaves and the branches couldn’t handle the extra weight of the snow so they just snapped and blocked roads and driveways. There are still over 47,000 people in Harrison County (and other surrounding counties) without power. My mom, Nan, Aunt Lois, Uncle Jerry, Aunt Janie and Uncle Boone are some of the people without power. Originally the power company said the power would be back on by Friday (today) now they are saying it won’t be until Monday. They have been without power since Tuesday evening! Needless to say my Mom is not handling no TV very well. So I charged up the battery for our portable DVD player and took it down to her Wednesday with some DVDs to try to hold her over until the power comes back on.
