Weekend Highlights

November 30, 2008 by Amy

  • One last update on the iPhone.  AT&T somehow removed my data and text plan from my phone and I couldn’t do much on the phone until Saturday so basically I was without my phone for 48 hours.
  • Went to a craft fair Saturday morning and got a cute necklace.  I also ran into one of my 8th grade teachers and she stilled recognized my by name 17 years later although I did not her.  She was selling prints of pictures she had taken around her town.  I wonder if she teaches anymore.
  • I cooked a turkey for the first time Saturday night.  You know, that one I won?  It showed up on my door step on Wednesday.  It was too late to fix for Thursday so I was so excited to provide a turkey for our Sunday School dinner except after spending three days thawing the turkey out and asking multiple people how to cook the thing, the EXACT minute I was putting it into the oven, I found out our Christmas dinner is not until NEXT week.  Yeah, I laughed too.  In good news, it turned out really well and I ended up freezing the meat for next week.
  • Heather, Mom and I laughed about as hard as I’ve laughed in recent years WHILE I WAS DRIVING IN THE RAIN ON THE INTERSTATE.  We were laughing at my two or three of my most embarrassing stories that I have yet to share on here.  Maybe one day I’ll admit to peeing on my Mom’s front porch fully clothed.
  • Saturday Melissa and I met up again to work on our books.  She has technically finished hers and I was able to start reading it from the start but she read only a scene or two from mine.  But she cried at one my scenes!  Yay!  That has to mean I’m doing something right!
  • Today I didn’t do a thing but church, choir and a nap.  I didn’t even make it to CVS.
  • I just ate a King Size KitKat by myself.  Good thing I’m cleansing tomorrow.

    I’m so glad you made me cry. And do I know this story about you peeing? (hoping I wasn’t a catalyst)

    I was standing in my childhood bedroom holding newborn Matthew and a sneeze caught me by surprise…I peed while Raouf stood there staring at me. Just one of those wonderful moments after delivering a 9.5 lb baby with a big head! The kids still joke about Mommy peeing her pants.

    Melissa, no, you weren’t the catalyst. I might just have to tell the story soon…

    Carolyn, thanks for sharing. I feel a bit better although I can’t blame mine on my babies.

    So, I see that this comment may come too late…but a similar situation happened with my iPhone, except a washing machine and soap were involved.

    To make a long story short, we just gave the phone enough time to air dry on its own (about 4 days) and it came on perfectly normal.

    I realize 4 days is a long time to go without a phone, but it saved me that extra $400 (at the time). But I hope you enjoy your new phone!
