It’s good to have friends.

Mom’s Family Calendar
Here are all the pictures from Mom’s calendar for the year. I’ll transcribe and get it into a google calendar for everyone to share.
365 Day 149
Helped dad out this evening. I took pictures of Mom’s calendar pages so we’d have a record.

- Had a really nice run this morning. It wont help my standings in the Nike+ but it felt good none the less. #

Followup on Flippy
Well, Parker did well last night after the getting him the medicine. He slept well and didn’t have any more boils in the morning nor any more throughout the day. He had some phantom scratching (or just dry skin) tonight, but it didn’t get him out of doing his homework (he tried).
Regardless, he is doing better and is back to his normal flippy self.

365 Day 147
Flippy at the kids-care IHC. Parker has an allergic reaction to something. Got some steroids from the doctor to help out. The doctor was seriously named Dr. Woody – a pleasantly plump Asian doctor.

Date Night With Kris
Kris and I were able to go out on Friday night. Tanner volunteered to babysit for us and off we went. Kris had a restaurant.com $25 gift certificate that she bought on-line for $3. We thought we were going to get a decent deal. Unfortunately when we got to the BBQ restaurant it looked like it had been closed down for a couple of months. You could barely make out the name on door if you squinted and looked just right.
With a hankerin’ for BBQ we drove over to a place called Q4U. We had never been there before and thought that we’d be a bit adventurous. As we were being seated by our stoned waitress we walked past a full on kalua pig. They had put oranges and cherry tomatos for its eyes and had it laying on a bed of lettuce. It was a bit of a shocker. We made it to our table in the back next to the emergency exit and got our menus. They had a menu item named “BBQ Shake” subtitled as “A cup-o-fun”. It was a 16 ounce cup with mashed potatoes at the bottom, followed by some pulled pork, topped with a generous helping of coleslaw. Yummmm. Welcome to Kearns!
Given the pig, the stoner, the sticky table (forgot to mention that), the emergency exit seats, and the cup-o-fun were enough to convince us that ordering would be unwise so we got up and politely left before ordering.
This is why we are hesitant to try new things, we don’t do so well. Usually it is me that makes the horrible decisions around foods and activities, but this time it was all on Kris. She is usually pretty spot on, but on this day she crashed and burned.
Leaving the BBQ far behind us we ended up at “Smash Burger” and it was pretty decent. After the burger we went over to the show “Eat, Pray, Love”. It was slow and we got bored, leaving before the movie was finished. We are so ADD.
Overall – Kris and I had a great time. I love her so much and was glad that we were able to get away for an evening. Life is good.
Namaste!
