I have a nice family!

The abandoned people came to visit this weekend. It was fun! They arrived Friday evening after a day of shopping in the big city. They arrived a little early, which I believe was just a convenient excuse to come see me at work at Blockbuster in my goofy uniform complete with name tag and pester me about where to find videos and how funny it is that one of the videos they rented was behind the wrong display case, so it was the wrong video and obviously this must be due to my lack of diligence in correctly replacing videos. (for the record, if you ever rent any movie from the children's section, be diligent about checking to be sure it is correct. The little rugrats LOVE to shuffle the videos. oy!)

So, anywho... The reason for the visit was my impending birthday on Tuesday. I received many wonderful presents that will keep me busy and happy for quite awhile. Mommy gave me Gilmore Girls season 2 last time I visited them as an early gift. I spent quite a long time watching that while Fiance was at work. I look forward to the time it will take to watch every episode in the Third season I have now received. Along the purple theme (the DVD box was purple!) I got the most beautiful purple picture frame, and my lil sis, that darling girl, got me yet another thing I have desperately wanted but could not justify spending my own hard-earned money on... A second matching pillow sham to complete my purple quilt collection. YAY! I also got a belle marker and something as a joint gift for both me and Fiance which we haven't opened yet cuz he has not yet been awake for such opening. In fact, I don't think my family saw him at all in the 48 hours or so they were here!

So, now I am watching GG season 3 while making a detailed grocery list and typing this blog (not necessarily simultaneously). So, yay! I love my family. ;-)
