That woman doesn't know what she's blogging about.

Hello again! Thanks for the comments Garth and Liz (as just the most recent examples). We love reading them. (And Garth, as you can see I have not given up the blog just yet).

Well, what has happened since Thursday?

FRIDAY: We forgot already. (We may have had 'marital relations'. It's just not that memorable! :) )

SATURDAY: We were planning to go to Minneapolis next weekend to check out our potential new kitchen at IKEA. We decided, however, that it was a little extravagant to travel that far to just look at a kitchen that we could look at in Carrie's cousin's house in Fort Garry. SO, as a bit of a comprimise we went to Grand Forks for the day today.

We had a nice day, just shopping and wandering around. I got three computer games on the cheap (one for $5, and 2 for $1 each). We also got our hands on the Saturday Night Live Trivial Pursuit DVD edition for only $10! SCORE! (Now if we only knew anything about SNL...) We picked up some cute clothes for Ben, and a blanket that has a picture of a dog named 'Charlie' on it. I also bought some neproxin (sp? Is there a doctor in the blog?) for my back, but that was promptly confiscated at the border. Oh well. Speaking of the border, it was the first time that either Carrie or I had to pay tax in a long time! I didn't know you paid PST AND GST on the items you are bringing in. (I thought it was just GST). And, of course, all of Ben's clothes were made by children in some poor Asian country, so we had to pay duty on those too! We didn't mind too much though, it was a fun day anyway. Thanks to Grandma Susan for watching the dog so we could go!

SUNDAY: The highlight on Sunday was Ben's first bike ride! We went all the way to Canadian Tire and back. That is what the pictures above show. Mommy rode back home directly while I took a longer route so that she could grab a camera and catch a couple of pics. It was a big TV night last night with the season finale of the Simpsons (VERY funny), and the finale of Survivor 10. Big veg-out night. In other Sunday news, I tried Jambalaya for the first time and...actually...liked...it. A little hot, tho.

TODAY: Well, work. Then Ben's swimming lesson where he got all excited playing 'Motorboats'. This is something worth a video, but as I mentioned in a previous blog, videos aint allowed.

Well, I'll sign off. Continual good luck and love to Liz - you're in for the time of your life! (And I DO mean that in a good way!) Keep us all posted!
