Woo-hoo, it's the weekend!

It's the end of a long week, the kids are in bed, and we are kicking back and having a few drinks!
The kids both have colds and have been a little fussy. Yesterday Xavier fell and hit his head on the edge of a wooden stool. He got a huge knot and it was bleeding a little bit. Didn't look bad enough for stiches, but he cried forever and after he went to bed last night, he woke up puking. I kind of wonder if he had a concussion. He seems fine today though.

Our dishwasher broke this week. We bought it only 2 years ago right when we moved in here. Not sure what's wrong with it. The lights all light up, it just won't turn on. We aren't even going to bother trying to have it fixed because it has never really cleaned the dishes very well and has been progressively getting worse. We've never been happy with it but didn't buy the warranty. It's a brand name dishwasher, and not cheap so I think we just got a lemon. Anyway, we just had to get a new oven a couple months ago too. I really wanted to upgrade to stainless appliances at that time, but since we thought the rest of our appliances would hold out, we just went with white again. If we would have known we'd be getting a new dishwasher too, we would have just gone ahead and upgraded to the stainless. Not that any of this is in the budget. Ha....budget! What's that??

Which brings me to our other news. Kendall had 2 jobs that he was really hoping for, and he got denial emails today for both. Happy Friday. The one he really wanted was with a credit union in Roseville, the other was a branch manager in Duluth. He has absolutely no other prospects now and we are both pretty much freaking out about what's going to happen to us.

Well, tomorrow Amayah starts swimming lessons again (Xavier was supposed to start too but there weren't enough kids for his class so it got cancelled), then she has a birthday party to go to for her friend Ripley. Then, we'll go dishwasher shopping.

I have to remember to buy a Powerball for Saturday :)
