Fool's Gold

I love to watch movies, especially funny happy movies. I'm not into scary movies, my mom and I watched too many when I was in high school! I really like movies that I don't have to think about too much. I guess it's my way of having no responsibility for a couple of hours. Keith and I rented Fool's Gold yesterday. Okay, I rented it and Keith agreed to watch it with me because he knows how much I love to watch movies. I was so excited about this movie. It totally let me down. First of all, it's rated PG-13, which I thought was okay, but it had a lot of language. It's hard to find any movies that don't have bad language. Second, the movie was just so slow. It doesn't hold your attention very well. I could have easily gone to sleep. We ended up fast forwarding through the end just to see how it turned out. I really think it was more interesting in fast forward. It was funnier too. I'm saying all this to say that I was so bummed. It wasn't worth the dollar we spent on renting it. Keith says it's now his turn to pick the movie, but I'm not sure I'm ready for that!! It will definitely be a movie that I have to think about.

On a good note, I love dollar movie rentals! We've used Redbox once, and this time we rented from one in Kroger. It's such an awesome idea.

Someone's happy to have her boys home!

Bronchial pneumonia

That's what Chloe has. She's not been feeling well for about a week and a half, but she was starting to sound worse instead of better. Her cough was waking her up at night even with cough medicine. We've been trying to decide whether or not to take her to the doctor for a couple of days. It's hard to decide because nights are always the worst, but then she seems fine during the day, other than the cough. Finally we decided to pay the co-pay just for a little piece of mind. I'm very thankful that I took her today. She really hates going to the doctor. I mean REALLY hates it. I know I'm being paid back with this because I once ran from the doctor over a flu shot. Anyway, she did really great today. We came home with an antibiotic, cough medicine and an inhaler. We have to do the inhaler every six hours, day and night, for a couple of days, so it's going to be like having a baby again. Hopefully she'll be much better in a couple of days. It's such a helpless feeling when you have sick kids.

Alone at the park

We took Chloe to the park yesterday evening. It was the perfect time, or so I thought, because there was almost no one there. I guess it was the perfect time for me, but I don't think Chloe thought so. The only other people there were boys on a baseball team, so there was no one to play with her. I don't think she knew what to do with herself. Keith and I tried to play with her a little bit, but she seemed pretty bored most of the time. I guess she's not used to being by herself. Even when we go to the park with the boys, she usually finds a little girl to play with. I guess maybe next time we'll go when there might be other people there.

Nashville Star

I don't know what bothers me more, Billy Ray Cyrus' hair or the fact that Danity Kane was on there. I'm not a fan of any talent search shows, but I was bored tonight. Keith was watching some terribly fascinating (NOT!) show about Apollo something or other going to the moon. I think next time I'll watch the show about going to the moon.

Wall-E

All together again...for now!

Chloe came home today from her trip with Minima and Bitiba. She had a great time with them and Emma and Tessa. We were all anxious to see her, but I think the boys were the most excited about it. They came home from camp yesterday. They had a great time as well. They forgot that Chloe wouldn't be here when they got home, so they were a little bummed. We had a great week, but it's nice to have everyone home again. It's not for long though. The boys leave tomorrow to go on their trip with Minima and Bitiba. I know they're excited, but I'm not sure they've had much time to really think about it. We've had a fun day with Granny and Pops, Lacey and Craig. Then tonight we had some more family over, so it's been a busy, but fun day. On top of everything I'm trying to get all the boys' clothes clean so we can pack it back up. I think I'll be working on that until tomorrow!! I'll hopefully have some pictures to post soon.
