Calvin woke up at 5:00 PST today. I’m hoping this means he’ll transition back to MST easily though the timing is suspicious.

Calvin wore out himself and Grandma so both are now down for a nap.

I’m starting the herculean task of trying to fit all of Calvin’s presents in our luggage.

*Finally* finished packing. The large suitcase is 49 lbs so I hope my scale is the same as Southwest.

Got through security ok.

Calvin slept well last night and is still sleeping I think I have to wake him up soon . . .

I have an appointment to see a doctor!

Time to start slogging through the massive amount of receipts that have piled up over vacation.

Calvin has graduate to his high chair being at the family dinner table instead of exiled in the kitchen.

From daycare: “Calvin had lots of fun exploring the room and playing in the kitchen area.”

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 3, 2011 8:18 PM
After daycare, we went to the library and then did some grocery shopping before coming home.

Calvin is playing Mr. Potato Head on a real computer! (I’m slightly worried the iPad is too easy :) )

I’m now shopping at the bookshop of mom. This could be dangerous.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 3, 2016 11:20 AM
I’m bringing home 17 lbs of books because what we need right before moving is more books.

I’m multitasking: watching Julian take a bath, listening to Calvin read, and packing up the bathroom.

I just found a pacifier inside a couch cushion. I sat down and the cushion was oddly lumpy.

Calvin is proselytizing goggle wearing and gave Julian a pair for Christmas. (He’s wearing a mask because we’re getting a furnace today (!!!) and have people in the house.)
Julian wears a cloth space mask with chrome goggles pushed up on his forehead.

Hm, finally took the time to try to put my treadmill back together after the move. I thought I was just missing screws. It turns out that part of the panel was torn off instead of unscrewed. I think I can get it stable enough to use . . .

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 3, 2022 3:02 PM
Our furnace installers are here right now which makes me particularly reluctant to spend the money more a new treadmill.

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 3, 2022 3:02 PM
(Craigslist often has oodles of treadmills but we don’t have a truck for transport and renting a uhaul always feels overkill.)

Kiesa @spreadsheetmom Jan 3, 2022 3:06 PM
Um, there’s only one screw that wasn’t ripped out so I think this is a write off :( Too basic didn’t figure that out before it spent 5 months cluttering the living room.

[This problem was later solved with zip ties so, as of 2024, we still have the original treadmill.]
