A good weekend... at least mostly. The good news is that Michelle came home Friday night and was home all weekend. So far no contractions and all is well. We have another weekly checkup tomorrow morning, but we expect all is well.



The best news of the weekend is that I wore a suit to church on Sunday that I haven't worn in five years! It was a little big for me, but overall it was pretty close to right. I hope to undergrow it before the Spring! The suit I've been wearing the past 3-4 years looks like a clown suit on me. :-)



The bad news is that I spent way too much time installing a garage door opener this weekend (which still doesn't work right!). Matthew must have asked me at least 25 times if I was ready to play with him yet. How ridiculous that I would lose two days of playing with my kids (who won't want to play with me forever!) to save $99 of an installation charge. I'm a wienie. Of course, as I say this I'm picking out the paint that I'll use to waste my next block of free time splashing on the hallway. I'm a VERY slow learner.



Monday was a big Mr. Mom day. Madison had dance, then we had to run some errands at Target and such. Then a late lunch at Taco Bell, some more errands, checking on Michelle, and then the matinee of Jonah the Veggie Tales Movie with our good friend Jonathan (sp?) Crisp. We got home late, but still had to clean the house before the housecleaner comes tomorrow. (BTW - what kind of crazy world is it when you have to clean the house for the housecleaner!!!!).



The other bad news... struck me when I (finally!) logged onto my computer tonight at 11pm. Today is the day I was supposed to be in Boston interviewing at Northeastern University for a position in their b-school's IS dept. What a turnaround. From being in beautiful Boston interviewing for a coveted faculty position to cleaning up for the housecleaner. I hate to think of the direction my life is moving... (said with tongue firmly planted in cheek).



The other good news... 1) The Redskins won convincingly (almost) over the Colts. 2) I had a wonderful bike ride this morning for about 13 miles through the peak of fall foilage here in Southern Indiana. It's really beautiful. I'm going to try and capture some of it with my camera Wednesday morning when I'm out. For those of you who live in non-green environments (Stan and Susan!) you are really missing out.
