and Pie!

Heidi and I just love Gilmore Girls. I remember when we discovered it. It was entertaining and funny and moved quite fast with their super quick dialogue and then we noticed something; Lorelai and Rory were freakishly a lot like Kimberly and Heidi! Cool! I honestly don't know how many times we have worked our way through this show beginning with disc 1 of the first season and ending with the last disc of the latest season that we have to date. Then, we start all over again. One of the things that we like is how they eat. Very similar to our eating habits and Lorelai and I share the same lack of domestic culinary abilities. Here is a list of regularly consumed items by both the Gilmore Girls and us.

She's Home!

My girl is home! I'm so happy. She also brought home her future roommate who is a super great girl. She's not from this area and I don't think has ever been up here before so she had some new experiences while she was visiting.  She got to be a Yooper for a week.

These last two weeks haven't been as fun as I would have liked. The first week they were home they spent it out in the woods with the grandparents. On the lake, 4 wheeling, and running around in the woods. The second week they both spent with me, and if you follow my other blog, you know that I have not been that much fun lately. I have a knee injury, which in turn has caused me to have my back go out so I'm confined to the chair and my bed and in constant pain. Heidi and her roommate have been doing the dishes, cooking my meals, helping me stand up, helping me go to bed and bringing things to me when I need them. They also ran to the grocery store since I can't really walk or move. Not exactly a fun week for them, but they were both great. I'm hoping Heidi's friend wants to come back because I really am a fun person.

The girls and I watched a lot of Gilmore Girls.  We also watched the latest Harry Potter movie...uh... the Deathly Hallows Pt. 1. Heidi's friend was super impressed at how I understood what was going on considering I don't read the books. I got Heidi the 3 disc special feature dvd/blu ray/digital copy as a surprise and it turns out she got it for herself already. Boy was I mad. She figured I forgot about it since she wasn't here. When is she going to realize I think about her constantly? Stinker! I can't wait for Heidi to get back from her trip to Madison because I want to watch more with her. She is seeing off her friend so she's been gone since this morning and wont be back until Tuesday. I miss her so much already.

I'm really looking forward to having an awesome summer with my girl!

Packing

We are packing her belongings, old, new, borrowed, blue.. wait, that's for something else, anyway... we're packing up all of Heidi's crap. Check out the new trunk. Made that purchase from http://www.trunksusa.com well, it's more of an investment. This should last her through college, her first home, marriage, and maybe her kids will take it to college. Anyway, I'm really happy with it and it will go nicely in her dorm.

I've only cried once today. Gilmore girls is "our show" and Heidi put it in the dvd player as I was getting our breakfast today and the theme song came on and I started to cry. I had to pull it together before I came into the living room. So far, for the remainder of the day I have been pretty good. Mom is here to lend me moral support and her car... we are taking that to Kalamazoo, MI so I'll need to start loading that puppy up tonight. I have a scary feeling that we are going to run out of room. I really hope not.

I plan on recording the process with my new flip camera. I warned Heidi ahead of time and I told her not to be a brat about it. I'm going to film whether she likes it or not. I think she'll be cooperative. I'll be doing this for myself and for Vernon, who will be interested in this process. He'd be here if he could so I thought recording it would be the next best thing.

 I had better get back to work before I get into trouble for slacking off.
