I got the Wii back up and run­ning last night.  Bowled a per­sonal best…  I think I might be replac­ing my nightly movie with Wii again for awhile.
It’s a shame really, being some­what active and stuff…what’s next skip­ping dessert?

It was a beau­ti­ful day so on the way home from cof­fee we mean­dered a bit and were treated to a smat­ter­ing of fan­tas­tic lit­tle details that we would have missed if we went straight home.
