I'M BACK!!! Aren't you terribly excited? Feeling as if your life is just a little more complete now? I know I'm glad to have Internet and email capabilities again. Although, truthfully it was nice having that extra time that I normally would spend online. And I received a few more phone calls than normal.

A quick rundown of the past week:

- My birthday was last Monday (22nd), and the kids and I spent part of the day at my friend Amy's house having a playdate with her and our friends Sara and Karen and all of our kids, of course. When we returned home, we all went to the chiropractor (free adjustment for my birthday!) and went out to eat. My big gift from the family was a digital camera!

- The rest of the week was fairly uneventful, and then the kids and I left for Mankato on Friday to stay with my parents for a few days while Cory refinished the floors upstairs and downstairs. The floors look marvelous!

- In Mankato, I saw my friend Heather, who's feeling so much better now that she's closing in on the second trimester. Can't wait for a little belly to start popping out on her! Got to see my brother Jeremy and his wife Jessica's new house. They moved into it at the end of May, but I haven't had a chance to see it before now. Also got to see my cousin Rachel's new house that her husband built. Beautiful!

Now I'll have to get back to all of my responsibilities - both at home and online. Tomorrow Accalia has her first dance class. Hoping she enjoys it!
