The day came and went…

Sunday was my baby girl’s birthday. It was a typical fall Seattle day which means it was chilly, gray, and rainy. Quite appropriate for the day I think. The SU and I spent the morning taking a nap and then we headed off to Cello lessons. The SU has taken up the Cello and is picking it up extremely fast. After the Cello lessons, we went over to see Amy. We couldn’t bear to buy her flowers because as the the SU said, “They’ll just die anyway and then I’ll be sad all over again.” We couldn’t stay very long because it was cold, raining, the ground was wet, and we didn’t have anything to sit on. Next time we’ll be prepared. We cried, hugged, said a few things about how in a perfect world she would have been giving us a run for our money, jabbering non stop (ma-ma of course! ), walking, and doing whatever else she could to challenge us.

The crumbsnatchers knew it was Amy’s birthday and yet for them they wanted business as usual. A fried of ours took them to church and then took them for the afternoon for us and they enjoyed themselves. We thought it was important for them to have a sense of normalcy.

On Saturday, the SU and I went to the Sonics-Rockets game in the company sponsored Luxury Suite. We had a good time but man, the Sonics suck the big one. A co-worker said they should rename the Super Sonics to the Suck-A-Sonics. For as much as Kevin Durant was hyped I wasn’t really impressed. I never was that good at basketball and don’t claim to be an expert but I do know that you can’t just stand on the wing at the 3 point line and stay there and expect to be passed the ball. It looks like its going to be a long season the soon to be Oklahoma City Sonics.
