Sunday, Corpse Bride!

X was kind enough to bring the kids over to me on Sunday.  She's always been really good about that since my car has been running not-so-well.  I give her money for gas to make it fair.  Also, through the week on Mondays and Tuesdays she brings them close to my work.  That's REALLY nice because I get to spend more time with them.  Well, she brought them over, and we went to lunch with Theresia.  It was Cracker Barrel, which was a 40 minute wait, but we had a good time rocking in the chairs out front, playing checkers, and also playing with the toys in the gift shop area.  After lunch, we split up and the kids and I went back to the apartment while Theresia got some stuff done.  Later, we met up with her and Rachael at the Village 8 to see Corpse Bride!  It was soooo cute and such a sweet movie.  I was worried that it might be too scary for Logan, but he really liked it.  And he slept fine with no nightmares or anything.  I mean, the "scariness" level was about like "The Emperor's New Groove", or "A Bug's Life".  It was really good.  My favorite part was the singing skeleton.  He only had one eye, and when he tilted his head the right way, it would roll from one socket to the other!

After that, we said good night to Theresia and Rachael, and we went to Wal-Mart.  Lexie has told me every time she comes over that her mother says she needs to bring home her training bras *sigh*.  I'm not happy  or comfortable about the WHOLE ISSUE of training bras at 7 years old, but...after some fits and grumping, I deferred to her mother about it earlier this year.  So, seeing as we could not find but one, and she was saying that she can't find ANY of them at her place, I decided to take her to get a couple more.  Man, that totally sucked.  I got her two, and I hope they work.  They were the same size as the one she had on, but...  Also I had to get some athletic socks.  Mine have all come up missing.  And I THOUGHT I was DONE spending money on clothes the other DAY!  By the time we got done, I knew I had to get them something to eat because it was late and I wouldn't have time to cook.  We got KFC, and ate at the restaurant, but took most of it home.  By the time we got home, it was wash-up-and-get-ready-for-bed time.
