Today (and yesterday)

I went on a little excursion today to Laughlin, NV (about 40 mins away) to buy movie tickets for Harry Potter on Saturday night. The theater in Kingman sucks so we thought it would be fun & a change of pace to go to a nicer theater with stadium seating. The theater didn't have online ticketing, at least not that I found, and it's in an outlet mall anyway so I thought I'd do a little window shopping. Okay, yeah right - there's no such thing for me! Anyway, turns out the theater isn't even showing Harry Potter! WTC?! The older theater in Laughlin is showing it, but why would I pay big theater prices for an old crappy theater in Laughlin when I can see it for $4.50 at the crappy theater in Kingman?! So now I spent a lot of money today for nothing! :)

It was 115 degrees in Bullhead/Laughlin (they're across the river from each other). I went to Sam's Club but forgot to bring my freezer bag so my frozen Pillsbury Buttermilk Biscuits (delish!) were mostly thawed when I got home & I'm sure my lettuce is a little wilty. Even though I started the car a couple of mins. before I put the kids in & had the A/C on full blast, poor little Jack still had sweat beads on his face & was red for at least 30 minutes! And my DP was not doing the trick - I was so thirsty for water! It was a good little trip anyway, even if I am poorer now! :)

Yesterday Callie pushed something off the ottoman and when I told her to pick it back up she said she didn't want to. I told her it didn't matter if she didn't want to - she had to and it's not okay to just knock stuff over because she feels like it. She said, "But I don't want to pick it up and I'm a princess so I don't have to!" Oh really! Yeah, well guess who picked it up after the Queen ordered her to?! :)
