Porch crap removal - Still to go (10): camp bed (promised to etaine_pommier, old bed (WTF?), rug, shelves x 2, folding art table, my husband's tae kwon do pads, a suitcase with ? inside, nonfunctional chair destroyed by cat pee and in need of completely new canvas, chair arms pulled off our dining room set, tarp, etc.?

Ain't it COOL? - Just got a note from our landlords saying they want to reduce our rent by $30/month. Wow.

The week in review ()
Mon - job hunty day, plus stuff
Tues - forgettable (park / walking around apt)
Wed - Mom came! I got to go out ... Went to lunch - no Cyn, alas. Then to Peet's for job hunty stuff - mostly I just got organized and did a spot of networking, then off for errands and some cardio at the gym.
Thurs - forgettable except for our Ikea trip - I ate meatballs with the lad, bought a storage bin and let EM Jr run around in the child's furniture section, where he pushed a rainbow chair around. Later we went walking around the apartment complex, meeting a shy 17 month girl.

Baby has figured out how to put shaped blocks through the shapes in the lid. Not that he does it well, mind you. Also has figured out that buttons = noise = fun! Therefore the nursery rhyme book is now going to go in the "take a 2 week rest" box upstairs.
