Persuasion
I wanted to mention to all of you who might be Jane Austen fans that the movie Persuasion will be on Saturday night on BBC America. I looked at the movie on IMDB and decided that it is definitely worth watching…or taping. Which reminds me that I need to get a new tape today. All of our vhs tapes are so old that when you fast forward or rewind them it sounds like a small helicopter is taking off.

Other things I’ll be up to this weekend…..
— hopefully not getting the cold virus that has claimed all but one boy and kept my oldest home from school 4 days this week.
— hopefully making cream cheese braids for the teachers at school.
— hopefully wrapping up my Christmas shopping. This is not as hard as it sounds since I buy all of like 5 gifts every year.
— hopefully figuring out what we’ll do with Sprugeon while we are gone…..too bad you can’t cryogenically store pets for a week. That would be soooo convenient.
— hopefully cleaning up around here before I lose my sanity.

Have a good weekend, everybody!
