Monday Update

Yesterday we had a very good Soup Sunday. Doug made potato soup and creole summer squash over rice. Deb brought bacon wrapped chestnuts and a very nice white wine. Jacob & Sara brought rolls with honey butter. Wanda brought apple pie and white wine. Lauren & Jamie brought cookies, chips and Kahula flavored chocolates. After eating we played Apples to Apples. It was a very fun game and lots of laughs were had by all. Chloe got home from work towards the end of the game and joined in. It is so funny the hear people defend thier card and think they have the winner. Sometimes you have to do a card dump and get suprised by winning with the dumped card. This happened to me last night. It all depends on the judge in the end.

In the middle of the night I felt Mao bouncing all over the bed. He had his new mouse baby on the bed and he was flipping it around. Doug said that when he came into bed, Mao was sleeping up near my waist level and he stayed on the bed even after Doug got in. He doesn't usually do that.

This morning I went to the front part of the house and could tell something was not right. It was quite cold (57 degrees). I felt the heat register and cold air was blasting out. I had to wake Doug because for the second time this week, the pilot light went out on the furnace. We are not sure what is causing this to happen. Thankfully he got it lit and it is now getting warmer in here.
