Basement stress

L is enjoying her lifeguard course. It sounds challenging and it's fun with a group of about 16 kids. Let's hope most of them make the grade.

K is having a friend over for the afternoon, they'll probably play Wii games.

I'm stressing about the basement, hope they get all the framing right. It does look good so far, but all it takes is a slight misunderstanding to go off track. The walls have come in about 12 inches due to all the pipes they have to cover, we'll have a bit less space than what I imagined.

I'm doing breaded pork loin chops today. I made some shrimp fried rice last night, I usually use ham in it, but there is a recall on a lot of deli meat due a listeriosis outbreak in the area.

Construction is always stressful. I say you're holding up rather well!

We love the Wii (and PS2) over here too. Have you tried Wii fit? I was thinking that might be fun.

No, haven't tried Wii fit yet, when it first came out, it was so hard to get.
