Neighbors just being loud post-teen males who fucking burn a newspaper on the step. And I don't know how the door glass got shattered. We have those guardian angels or whatever involved in the complex. I'm calling them soon.

I think it is just a couple of new move-ins but I AM SO OVER IT.

Noah and Tyler need to bond over ball obsessiveness! 100 balls at walmart from aunty sara! Love how Noah is all buh! over getting clobbered by the big kid.

Woohoo bedtime, msbelle. That's huge.

sara, you holler when you are ready for an open house weekend. We can do long weekends in Feb when mac has winter break.

Plan is to get the finances rolling this month. Possibly as early as tuesday when my dang face is numb from crown-prep. Then... I have a couple of realtors I like so far, and are web literate. Will be contacting them.

...if of course it doesn't prove I am too damn poor to afford the hoods I like.

And I just burned the fuck out of myself when a thing of pasta fell out of the cabinet onto the pot of water I was boiling for tea. Hot water on toe and then brilliant me grabbed the burner for some idiotic reason. I think yanked the sock off fast enough to avoid bad toe burns. Not too bad, but dear god, I need a keeper.

I laughed out loud when the other kid knocked him over, I confess.

(I did too.) ((I mean, clearly, he was fine. Just confused when gravity suddenly came into play.))

sara, ouch!

Do *not* make me send you bubblewrap. I have no idea how I'd package it for shipping.

re: Noah learning gravity lessons:

Did you guys see him almost tip over in slow-motion part-way through, when Kat tossed the pink ball at him? Caught him just a biiiit off-balance.

My mom is making me watch the Ghost Whisperer and Amy Acker is on. @@.

Noah meets up with gravity way more often than you'd think. He shouldn't be surprised by it at this point.

And yes, I throw things at my kid.

((I mean, clearly, he was fine. Just confused when gravity suddenly came into play.))

Yes! For the record, I would have laughed in person as well.
