Weekend Recovery

Phew! Third busy weekend in a row! Every week I vow to spend at least 4 hours reading yet it never seems to happen.

This past weekend wasn't quite as driving-intensive as the previous two, but we did get our share of Jetta-bonding-time when we picked up the kids in Duluth. We had high hopes of hanging out around the harbour, but some cold, rainy weather thwarted our plans. We *did* get to eat at Sammy's Pizza, though. Good times.

Then home to a marathon cleaning session to get our house showroom ready for yesterday's showings. It sounds as though there are interested applicants, which is good, as this level of cleanliness is likely unsustainable.

Yesterday was church and then we headed over to Como Town which is basically like Tinkertown except a) the roller coaster banks so that riders don't rattle their bones around each corner and b) the play structure is open-air under some trees rather than a spaceship connected of heatstroke-inducing plastic tubes from which it is impossible to retrieve lost, crying children (not that that has ever happened to me).
