Our ticker says mom's bday is 16 days away. What are we doing for it? I haven't talked to mom for a while, so I guess I'll call her and ask.
Sarah - Chels and I bought her a Keurig coffee maker, some coffee and accessories. I'm still under the impression you want to go in on this gift with us. Let me know one way or the other.
So anyway, Chels, what should we do? Should we suggest taking her out to eat somewhere or maybe going to her house and cooking her dinner? chinese food? watching a movie? I don't really care. If I ask Rich to go, he probably will, but if I tell him it's only "the girls" then he'll be more than happy to stay home. What're your thoughts?

On other fronts, the basement reno is coming along. I'm so antsy for it to be done now though. We have all the paint colors decided and bought and now I need to get my butt in there and do some serious amount of painting. Though some I can't do yet because our contractor is dragging his feet with the finishing touches on what's been done so far. So annoying.
I'm taking River to beginner agility class every thurs night. It's really far away (read: an hour+ each way) but it's fun and he seems to like it ok - he needs more activity. I'm such a bad dog owner activity-wise. I need a really active friend to drag me out of the house every evening for a run or something.
I'm all out of dark chocolate covered pretzels and I'm trying to convince myself not to buy more...
loves to you both

i tried to call her over the weekend and she didnt answer or call back. i was busy yesterday and apparently went to bed super early. she called my cellphone from her cellphone, but i didnt get the "missed call" message til this morning. i'll call her again tonight.
id be fine with anything really. i think justin would be in the same boat as rich. in the past mom has had a general idea of what she wants to do for her birthday, its probably our best bet to ask her. we could offer to go out or stay in and ask if she has a preference... basically thats all ive got. i dont want to plan something if she has something specific in mind. i'll try again tonight to get her on the phone.
