An L & P Update.

With nothing major to write about, I'll leave you with some small talk...

1) My sister Dana was supposed to be here last night. Unfortunately, that darn volcano has pushed her arrival date back to this weekend! What a disappointment! She was coming with treats (tea, magazines, peanut butter) and lots of cheer (for the baseball park, of course)! We are excited to show her a country that never fails to have a dull moment.

2) We are back at the gym from an extended hiatus! We were able to squeeze in some treadmill cardio and three muscle groups before calling it quits. Tonight we hope to show greater persistance!

3) Phil's training continues this week as he analyzes and enjoys Survivor: Fiji. It is reaching a critical point if you ask me. Last night, he practiced kung-fu-like moves and snacked on complex carbs to keep his energy up. If he gets out the war paint I expect some back-up.

4) Although I don't share the same passion for Survivor, the show tends to inspire new travel ideas and adventures. "TP - LINK" served as a reliable internet connection last night and I was able to plan our christmas vacation while Phil was taking a game (or "THE" game) too seriously. Our potential destination is Sri Lanka!

5) A kennel, or "jail cell", has been purchased for Oscar. It came with a doggy beer that squeeks worse than his yellow donut or doggy news newspaper. In terms of appropriateness, I am only packing the latter for Canada. Haha - current events and literacy always receive my support!

6) Freezies. My goodness - we have been through boxes. Phil eats them in reps of four to five, in sets of two to three. It is his "this makes me happy" trick. I have stuck to the beanie for comfort :)

7) Things have been a little frustrating at school this week. Yesterday was certainly an "only two more months" day. We fly home on July 2nd. Can't wait to see all of you!
