Hello World!

I don't have a lot to report this week, as my son was home sick from school for three days so I really didn't get out much. We watched the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy on consecutive days (extended editions), had a lot of soup and played a lot of Monopoly. At this point we have The Simpsons, Lord of the Rings, Scooby-Doo and of course The Next Generation Monopoly as well as the original, so we always have to negotiate which one we want to use. What I like about the Lord of the Rings version is that there is a Ring that travels around the board based on dice rolls, so the game always ends at some point whether someone is clinging to life with one property left or not!

Our original plan for the next three days, which are a long holiday weekend in the US for Martin Luther King's birthday, was to visit my sister in New York, but she has unexpectedly decided to go to Florida with her family. So instead we are going to go to museums in Baltimore and watch the Redskins cling to life in the playoffs. And for Monday, we have managed to get tickets to go see the baby panda at the National Zoo! So everyone here will be close to home recuperating.
