Something is seriously wrong with our VCR and we’re thinking of having it put down. I’ve noticed it mostly with the American kid’s videos, but apparently it happens with European ones as well, as we just tried to watch a rental tape (Two Weeks Notice*) and the screen flickered annoyingly through the majority of it. It only stopped when Anders sat on the floor in front of it and stuck his hand inside (petting it soothingly, I assume). Maybe we should chuck it and buy a DVD, you say? Ummm…well, that would be a good idea except for the GAZILLION...

Karin was up most of the night, crying out in her sleep and ended up in our bed early this a.m. Turns out this morning she’s running a temp so I’m home with her. But we’ll be out and about anyway, as she’s not deathly ill, so she’s going to accompany me to lunch and grocery shopping, and perhaps into the office for an hour. Am I a bad mom? LOL Martin also has a growly cough coming on and is sounding very hoarse, but since he had school pictures today, we sent him off. Definitely a bad mom. 🙂...
