A slow return to normalcy

Since yesterday was Jen's upper GI, we didn't really get a lot done around the house. I brought her home around 5:00 and she slept for a couple of hours before we decided to try the new dim sum place down the street, which JOY OF JOYS is just a sister restaurant of our favorite dim sum place in Chinatown (Chau Chow City) which is exponentially more convenient and fantastic. (And there is parking! Glorious parking!) The dinner food was pretty yum (Jen had some sort of pan-fried noodles and I had this tempura-fried tofu stuffed with shrimp. Yay! Then I tried to make my Sims fall in love and went to bed.

I made berry pancakes for breakfast and they were quite tasty. I am the queen of pancakes.

Today we have started putting the house back together, which is a chore. We have ripped open about 20 garbage bags and have been putting clothes away like madwomen. Jen's closet has NEVER looked so clean, I just want to look at it all the time. I re-covered the futon and pillows and we slapped a sheet down on the guest bed. We're not going to continue washing all of the clothes but decided that we will take all of the bedding and blankets to the laundromat someday soon. The blankets/comforters could all use a good hot wash anyway.

Cookout today and the rain seems to be holding out for the most part. That makes me happy!
