When No Adventures Can Be Found

Nick and I have had a pretty low-key week. On Sunday night, the power went out in the middle of our dinner, right around 8 pm. By 8:20 it still wasn't back (and the entire street was dark so it wasn't just us) so we left to go see Bee Movie. It was cute, we got our private showing, but it would have been better to see it at the discount theatre in a month or so. But the power was back on when we got home, which is really the important thing, right?

Monday night we played a hard-fought tennis match - in an hour and a half we were unable to finish two sets. Tuesday we kept it simple, wrapping Christmas presents as we watched The Biggest Loser on TV.

Last night was probably the most exciting night of the week. We played volleyball and only won our 3rd game (but did lead in the second game 24-23 so we could have had it), then headed over to Granite City to celebrate Dave's birthday a week early (but the last night he's planning on being in Minnesota for a while). We had a very good turnout for a Wednesday night - 16 people. We had to split up between two tables, but it all worked out pretty well. It was great to finally get back there to eat again. Happy Birthday Dave!

Karin, if you're into bees, check out this book: The Secrect Lives of Bees. It's excellent!! It's more about women than bees, though . . .

Happy Bee-Day Dave. :)

Sorry for the lameness of my comment. I need a vacation.
