Quick update

I'm having to take a 1/2 day off work today - sinus junk. I've had it for a week, and I think I will have to give in to an antibiotic. I hate taking those. OB stresses it's okay with the baby though.

Issa is in her big-girl bed! I will have to post pix when I get a sec (heh-heh), but she's doing fine. The problem is naptime - she gets out and can't get back in... thoughts?

We are hosting Poker Night at our house on Friday night, which will be a very late night for this PG girl... we've been so busy getting the house together for the shin-dig.

We had a handyman come over yesterday afternoon to switch out a chandelier. After hearing him in there, I heard a crash, and he said, "didn't do it"...

Nice morals there, guy. I went in, and looked ticked. He said, "this thing is cheap - the piece broke but I've got a part that will fix it" (#1 - it's not a cheap chandelier, #2 - first you say, "not my fault", but then say "it's cheap - that's why it broke - which is it?)

So anyway he finishes and gets the rock out of here. I won't be calling him again. His rate was incredibly cheap, which suited me fine. He had no pragmatic skills though.

Salt Lake City 2007

Sorry I haven't posted about our trip!
It was incredible. I was so sad to leave my Issa, but she was so excited to see her Nana, that it was all fine. Sally and Issa and I headed to Marta on Thursday afternoon.
I rode Marta to Jake's office and met him inside the Marta station.
We rode to Airport and flew out - got there around 8 SLC time. We had a blast! Saw so many movies, Jake did tons of skiing, it was incredible. We ate great food with lots of fun friends. The last night, we ate at the cutest bistro with 15 in our party! It was so fun.
So: getting home... with the rest of the Sundance crowd...
Our flight was to leave at 10 AM.
We left Tom’s house at 835ish?
Got there around 9. Awful. After 30 minutes to check in and 40 for security, we missed the plane by 1 minute. Literally. It was awful. I was so hormonal and crying – BOOHOOING – b/c I wanted to get home so bad to see Iss.
ALL FLIGHTS TO ATLANTA WERE BOOKED THE REST OF THE DAY. BOOKED!
Even the red-eye that left at 11:45 PM. So we tried standby for the 11:50 AM flight – and were bumped to #42 on the standby list b/c of Medallion members and first class members. So I cried more. And even more. Jake sent me to the bathroom b/c I was making a scene. He finally calls Delta and is like, “Get me to “Bham, Knoxville – any southern city” – b/c the next flight available to ATL was at 6AM on Monday morning. And I’d have to call in SICK AGAIN on Monday. Not good. So she says there’s a flight from SLC to Omaha (ever been there?) to Atlanta to Bham – “wait – where’s your final destination?” We were like- “book it.” We wouldn’t get back on the one to Bham and be okay. So after all day of terrible-ness, we finally get home at TEN pm.
I missed seeing Issa, and literally had to jump in running to the work week. It was crazy. No time to do laundry or anything, and I was playing catch-up every day this week.
This past weekend was nice too - just a relaxing one to enjoy together. I had a friend in town from Charlotte, who has an almost-two-year-old. He and Issa had a ball playing together!
Have a great week; pictures later,
