My big toes hurt.

Today, we upgraded our electrical service to 100 amps.  I feel all adulty doing all of these adult homeowner type things.  Painting walls, tiling floors, purchasing appliances, calling in an electrician, having a baby...

I went for a walk today with my friend Nicole.  Her daycare was sick so she had to stay home with her super cute daughter.  They came over to see the new pad and we walked up to Lake Nokomis.  We stopped at the park to play and Amelie took her first ride in a swing that does not run on batteries.  I don't know who had more fun, her or I.   My big toes hurt from the walk.   Is that weird?

We got Papa Murphy's for dinner and it was in the oven when we heard this strange sound.  Like a muffled thud.  We couldn't figure out what it was until I went into the kitchen and noticed milk leaking out the side of the fridge door.  Yeah, the temp in the fridge was too cold, probably from when the power had to be turned off then back on again when the electricity got shut off today.  One of the bottles of milk (the full one) froze and exploded.  It was super.  Unpasturized organic skim milk was all over the place.  We had to take out all the food, drawers, and shelves and scrub the whole thing clean.  Just when the pizza was finished cooking too.   I wish I would have gotten a photo of that.  

Now that I think about it, that's the 2nd milk incident that I have had this year.  Remember the first one, I dropped it on the floor after making myself a gourmet lunch, woke up the baby, ended up eating a cold lunch.  Actually, when we moved out of our old house, I kept finding milk drop stains all over the kitchen.

I loathe football.  I think it is by far my least favorite sport.  I hate watching it, I hate seeing it on the news, I especially hate fantasy football.  I'm already tired of watching all the Farve/Vikings hoopla.  It would be great to see some news on the News.  Not sports news, not entertainment news, and not so much negative news.  Good news.  Happy stories.  Helpful tidbits of information.  Thats what I want to see on the news.  

Hooray, my friend Beth is coming to town tomorrow.  I get to spend the day with her on Thursday.  Then I get to see Amber and Cassie too.  We are all going to go to dinner and have a couple of drinks afterwards.  I'm really excited to see them all again.

That's pretty much it for now.  Except for this very very cute photo.
