Eeny is a girl.

Ultrasound pics to follow soon. It's such an odd world in which we live when parents can be able to see their unborn children's hearts in action. Even more so when we get all excited and happy to see stomachs and bladders and hearts and kidneys.

I was hoping for a prehensile tail but I guess it'll be my grandchildren that take the next leaps forward in human intelligent design.

Pumpkins and Poop

It's been a perfect day. The weather is a gorgeous 76 and sunny with a light breeze and a hint of autumn crispness. We took Teh Is to the Huber Orchard/Winery/Farm facilities over in southern Indiana so we could explore the pumpkin patches and stock up on apple butter. She enjoyed the wagon ride out to the pumpkins and had fun sitting on some of them and trying to pick them up (photos to come later). She had some of our pumpkin ice cream (yum!) and then we sang silly songs and fed her teddy bear on the drive home.

When we got home, she said "Poo Poo?" I put her on the potty and she actually did it! We sang a celebratory potty song, danced around, and gave her some Halloween candy (after washing her hands, of course!). Who would've thought Webhamster and I would ever be so excited about poop? But those of you who've had to change diapers and have spent thousands of dollars on them know what I'm saying.

Dry clean me a river

I have a huge pile of shirts to iron. I thought washing dishes was my least favorite chore, but now that I think about it, it's definitely ironing. For one, I'm not very good at ironing. I can work on one shirt for over five minutes, and there are still a few little wrinkles in it. When I go over those, more seem to pop up somewhere else.

Some people just take wrinkle-prone clothes, particularly shirts, to the dry cleaners. Have you seen how expensive dry cleaners are now? It's outrageous! There used to be a place on Eastern Parkway and Bardstown Road here in Louisville called $1.75 Cleaners. Now it's called $3.25 Cleaners. The price nearly doubled in under four years. Why is hyperinflation occurring in the dry cleaning market? Have all of those home dry cleaning products, e.g., Dry Cleaners Secret, put the pinch on business at the cleaners'?

So I'm stuck at home ironing because I refuse to pay $3.25 or more to basically have a shirt pressed. There's no need for them to "clean" these things that can be washed at home but they just look somewhat sloppy without a professional pressing and starching.
