good weekend
sorry i've been MIA a bit around here lately. i had some cold or virus that made me feel like i'd been hit by a mack truck. at least i missed the LJ blackout lol.
. saturday my parents came over to help dave put together the swing set they got for the kids. it's a really nice wooden one with a slide, mini rock wall, swing, glider swing, and monkey bars. the kids LOVE it.
a *little* problem though...it's not the one we ordered. they delivered 2 boxes. a little while after the girl called me saying they thought they delivered 2 sets. i went out, read her the numbers said "one box says 1 of 1, the other says 1 of 2". okay, that's right, you're all set. DUH, i call back "shouldn't they say 1 of 2 and 2 of 2??". nope, you're fine.
okay, so it took over 2 weeks for us to put it together. michael went out and started sorting stuff...yeah, totally wrong. the 1 of 1 box had everything so we put that one together, BUT michael said the one he saw (that we bought) had a rope ladder instead of a climbing wall and it was just pressure treated wood, not the nice dark wood the other one is. OHHHHH WELLLLL! lol. i dunno, i think my mom is supposed to call today to see what they want to do about the box for the other set. my fear is that the set we put together was more expensive than the one we actually bought. michael said he didn't care though, he'd pay the difference if they want.
i felt bad for dave through all of it though because he had duty the night before so he'd gotten NO sleep and it was hot as balls on saturday. humid and gross. he was a trooper though.
dave and i managed to have quite a bit of *ahem* "quality time" this weekend. verrrry nice, since i usually have no interest, hopefully the pill change is finally making a difference in that area.
it was nice too to just wake up yesterday and snuggle for a little bit. plus, he let me take a nap yesterday!! woohoo! i love naps lol.
oh, he bought WoW the other day. bad enough we have 2 everquest accounts. luckily, he just bought a 60 day game card to see if he likes it. if he does, we may cancel one or both of the EQ accounts. i just have a hard time doing that because he has 2 level 75 characters that he's spent the last 7 years working on. however, i'm starting to like WoW so we'll see what happens lol.
anywhoooo, that's about it from here, time to feed the kiddos. hope everyone had a nice weekend!
