yesterday i was straightening my hair. emma was tinkering around, and bumped her head on something. it was kind of a bad bump, and she was tired, so it was an ordeal. i jumped up and we walked around, and she settled down. i laid her down for a nap. i think i came downstairs to get some water. i went back up and as i approached my vanity saw that the straightener had fallen against our camera. as it is plastic, there is a little gouge melted away :( it still works fine, but it's one of those moments that i wish i could redo. if only i would have double checked to make sure it was sitting up before i walked away. oh well. it's a bummer.

two days ago i cleaned out the garage. i parked on the street anyway, so i just carried the few things out and got the hose hooked up and sprayed it down and swept it out. it's nice to have it clean again. i tried to wash the van yesterday, but the car wash was horrible. it seemed like the foam brush was out of soap or something, because it wasn't all that soapy. it is really streaky and looks dumb, but it will get dirty this weekend anyway, so i am not going to worry about it. although it is kind of hard for me to let it go when i look at the bad spots. even the windows are streaky.

the battle of battleship continues between the mr and i. we are tied...but only due to luck. ;)
