*laughs* Oh, the irony... Guess what I did from 1pm-9pm today? Impromptu babysitting! (for which we didn't get paid 'cuz it's informal --.-- but that's alright, I still like seeing the two boys ^.^ Joe's a real sweetheart) Yep.. 9 hours straight, 2 boys and for the last 3 hours, nearly nothing to do o.o

I am really, really sorry to everybody I missed ^.^; Dad wanted to talk with Bob, who in turn needed help with a moving boat ramp thingy at their up and coming new house... So Cat and I got drug along to keep John and Joe occupied <.<; Cat was still a bit under the weather and I wasn't feeling so hot either, so we extracted a promise it would only be for three hours at most, then he would take us home and go back if he wanted, but as I'm sure most of you have experienced, with one parent or another, that's not how it went...

Since Cat was a bit sick, I pretty much had both boys all day. (we usually split them up or watch them together) It also helped that there was a neighbor boy who's house we went over to (the inside of John and Joe's new house still isn't done and at the moment, there was wet paint..) and he had lots of junk to play with. Then, after a slight mix up about getting lunch, we ended up taking the boys all the way back to our house, where Cat went to sleep and I watched them for another 3 hours <.<; Our house is pretty much devoid of things for nine year old boys to do, but we managed ^.^ John found these two papier-mache (sp? o.O) semi-sphere things Cat and I had made before and turned them into a helmet covered with duck tape whee since I said we weren't gonna do anything with it anyway.

I'm just very, very glad it was John and Joe instead of Jonathan and Robert... Much nicer ^.^ almost to the point of being clingy o.o They honestly never want to leave... *giggles* Like this one thanksgiving, my whole family was there literally 24 hours a day for 5 days and they still didn't want Cat and I to leave ^.^;

Speaking of which, Dad's gotta go back to help finish the job tomorrow (plus cut some tree limbs for somebody) so if ya don't hear from me, I got drafted into another all day-er whee sweatdrop

Well... I'm off to nurse a slight sunburn and get some sleep, hope you all got a good start on your weekends!! ^.^
