Cruising around town

The kids and I spent most of the day out running around. It poured rain nearly the entire day yesterday so we were stuck inside. I still can't believe how much rain we've been getting! And I really can't beleive it's almost July and it hasn't reached 100 yet! I'm really glad but surprised! It's only in the 80's today :). We stopped by Mike's work this morning and took him doughnuts. He forgot his coffee when he went to work so we were gonna take it to him and figured we'd might as well get him doughnuts to go along with it :). After we left the post office, we headed for the library. The kids have been wanting to check out some books and I found a couple that I needed. See my previous post for the subject I was looking for...lol. I found some really great books. One of which was very age appropriate for Cassie and we can read it together. There are some very inappropriate books out there in my opinion!! They say this book is for ages 4-8 and Cassie's 9 1/2..BULL! LOL! I don't recommend this book...I know...I read most of the book at the library with what I'm sure was a sheer look of terror on my face....a woman that worked at the library even asked me if I was doing ok. No....no I'm not doing ok...lol. http://www.amazon.com/Where-Did-Come-Peter-Mayle/dp/0818402539/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-0363963-2632114?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1182982085&sr=1-1

They had this at the library and OMG! LOL! It's illustrated like a kids book with cartoonish looking illustrations and goes in to explicit detail (and pictures!) of where you came from and how you got there....not good! LOL! It had the mom and dad in the bath tub, in the bed, said what they were doing in the bed, and excuse me I have a problem with this one....it described feelings while having sex...even an orgasm...what?!?!?!?!?. They don't need to know that! In fact, if they must know anything they need to think it's horrible so they won't want to do it! Ever! LOL! Crazy book/author/illustrator...LOL! I felt like the book encouraged sex. I thought it was gonna give general information...sheesh...lol. After we left the library I took them to McDonald's for lunch. After that we went to rent a movie for them and then we went to the bookstore. I was emailing a friend of mine the other day and she reminded me of the Judy Blume books most of us read when were younger. In particular a book called "Are you there God? It's me Margaret". I had completly forgotten about that book but remembered how much I loved Judy Blume's books. I picked it up for Cassie while we were at the bookstore. I guess I could have checked it out but the only copy they had at the library was falling apart and I thought this would be a good book to keep. I got Joshua a new phonics book to help with his reading. We had a couple of other errands to run and then came back home a bit ago.

I've decided that I need to learn how to either knit or crochet. Some of my stitching friends knit and have been talking about it quite a bit lately and it's driving me nuts that I don't know how. I don't know why...lol. We have a yarn shop here called The Yarn Palette. I called them a few minutes ago and they offer classes. I'm thinking I just may have to sign up for one. I want to learn to make some scarves and ponchos. It just looks so darn complicated.

I'm off to figure out what we're having for dinner...
