Doomed by Dora

Last night we had to run over to the new house, check some things and then we were going to get something to eat. The pool is looking good, the counter tops are looking good, etc., etc...After we ate we headed to Lowe's to pick up some stuff. By this point, it's about 8:10. I love that it was still light at, but then it tricks you into thinking it's not as late as it really is. Know what I mean?
Savannah and I decided to stay in the van while Steve went in. She was watching a movie and I chatted away on the phone. 45 minutes later...the natives are getting restless and Steve still isn't back. If Savannah said, "Mommy?" one more time I was going to auction her off to the next passerby.
Finally, almost an hour after we had been there, Steve comes out with a buggy full (yeah, I said, "buggy." That's what we call them in the South). We go to leave but the van won't crank! Damn Dora! That's we we get for letting Savannah watch her movie the whole time.
Oh well. We get a jump from one of the guys working and THEN headed home. Whew!

I hate Dora out of principle. It's Good Enough for me but Just in Case I also keep a Genuine List of Reasons.
Thanks for Item # 17.

A pool, girl? Seriously? Please tell me it's inflatable. Or that I'm invited.

Dang I've missed a lot. Like wishing you a happy birthday. Happy Birthday! The cupcakes looked yummy. And telling you how jealous I am of being at the beach for 2 days. And I totally am digging all of the colors you've picked out for the house. It looks great! It's really coming along. Hope you had an awesome Spring Break!

How did we survive before in-car DVD players?
