2. While we were at the mall, Max somehow managed to lose his blanket. I can't tell how traumatic this would have been if that were the end of the story. Thankfully, a kind person returned it to the customer service desk, and our sanity was reclaimed! We found a similar blanket once that was the same brand and color, but they have different animals appliqued on them. The one Max loves has a dog on it. You can see it here: Max's Blanket. If anyone out there has an extra blanket like this, we will gladly take it off your hands as a spare! But remember... it must have the dog. There was time when this little boy didn't see a difference in monkeys and dogs, but that time is long gone!
3. The flu has hit our home for the first time. Jack woke up early Thursday on fire with fever, and the official diagnosis was followed by a very large purchase of Tamiflu. Everyone got a dose since our cruise is less than 10 days away. We didn't want to take any chances! I hope it leaves very quickly!
4. Have you heard of E-mealz? It's a site that plans your meals for you, gives you the grocery list, and it usually costs about $75 per week for a family of 4. The fee is $5/ month to join! Since we can NEVER think of anything to cook, it seemed perfect for us. We signed up for the Low-Fat meals from Wal-Mart, and the menus look great! We've actually eaten at home the last two nights! Next week's meals for our family will include Marinated Pork Tenderloin, Baked Spaghetti, and Gumbo! You should check it out!
5. I read a quote last week from a fellow photography friend last week, and I just had to share:
“Do something you really love that you would do anyway. Do it in the most adventurous place you can do it. And make sure that it helps other people.”
I think she said it was by Diane Sawyer's father (random, I know), but there is great truth in that quote! Why waste your life doing anything less?!?!
