I'm home with the boy today. He woke up at 5:00 with tummy problems and he doesn't think he feels good enough to go to school. Right now, we're snuggled in watching cartoons. If he starts acting like he's ok, he might end up in school later today.
I wish I were all snuggled up watching cartoons! Um...not with you and the boy but in general! It's supposed to get to 41 tomorrow so it should feel like 80 here.

TGIF! This weekend we are planning on going to Snowfest in Frankenmuth. The weather has not cooperated the last few years so we have not gone but nothing should be melting this year. I'm not sure if that is a Sat or Sunday plan. We will see. My husband told the girl we were going, but didn't invite her just to see what she would say. She as usual just stated that she didn't know what she was doing yet- showing no interest. There are other things going on with her but it is clear that we are not apart of her life anymore. Ever since her Mom got a boyfriend, we are no longer involved in decisions. We are told after the fact. My husband is expecting her to go and raise the child support.
Well enough of that gloom- carry on

Although cold, that sounds like fun Woo! Good luck with the girl!
We took a look at some cars last night, and are thinking about a silver 2005 Pontiac Grand Am. They're asking something like $13,000, Blue Book says suggested retail is $11,800 in excellent condition and $9800 by a private seller. It has a couple cosmetic problems, a little wear on the liner and a tiny ding where someone probably hit it with a car door, but I can live with that. With all that considered, I think I can talk him down to $10,000. If not, well then, I'm not getting that car.
This morning I picked up a rental. It's gotten to the point where we need a car even if it's just for the weekend. I have to work at the tax office tonight and tomorrow, we need groceries, I need groceries from the co-op, we need to go to the pet store and do laundry (with some delicates, which means I have to take it to the laundry mat, not just use the washers at our property), and more general stuff. They have a weekend special going, I got a Ford Fusion for $20 a day and have to return it Monday morning. Hopefully I'll have a new car by then.
