No more stranger danger and shoelaces

Well our babysitter who's temping for our babysitter who is on maternity leave had to go to court on Monday and then Tuesday, so we had to drop little one off at Grandma's. This worried the both of us, because Nora has this habit of wailing when she's not with Mom, Dad or Jami.

Well, after the initial "MOMMY DON'T LEAVE" cryfest, she settled down and had a grand ol' time with Grandma. So much so that she got to go there again today even though the new babysitter didn't have jury duty.

Mom has a physical tomorrow so she'll go back, but still it's good to see her laugh and babble and talk with people other than the 3 of us.


This morning I was getting ready to tie my shoes, when the lace snapped off. I've had these shoes 8 years now, so i guess it's time SOMETHING on them started to fail (Dr. Marten's may be an expensive shoe, but by God, they have proven to be a very decent investment). So now I have to figure out how to buy a pair of shoelaces that aren't too short. That's been my problem in the past, buy a pair of laces, come home, and they barely go 1/2way up the shoe... So looks like I'll be searching on Saturday.


Gotta clean house this weekend too, since next weekend is Nora's 1st Birthday party :)
