Went to Cub Foods and Walmart last night, and took along the kiddies (John says "Cub Foods" now when we go in). At Walmart John made a beeline for the little kiddie rides they have out front. On the way out I put quarters in the helicopter, but I didn't have any for the little car, which dismayed John greatly. John walked on his own in Walmart (Hanna was in the cart), and John likes the freedom. He stays close for the most part, but once in awhile the temptation to mess with things on the shelves becomes too great. Once he messed with some sunglasses, so we put him in the cart for a short timeout, and he wailed, and pointed to the floor and said "get down, walk in store", and started climbing over the side of the cart.
And of course, when Hanna sees John walking, she immediately puts up her hands and says her "aaaahh, aaaah", and wants to walk to.
She's so funny when she sees John doing something. Last night I tossed John on the bed so he could jump a bit, and Hanna had come up the stairs on her own, and immediately walked up to the bed, looked at me, and said "aaaaah, aaaah". Yes, I could tell what she wanted! So I tossed her up to and tickled her. John doesn't always like it when his time on the bed is shared with Hanna.
I'm starting to look at going to another group here in the building. This would be more of a programming job, which would be good for me. I'm not doing a whole lot of actual coding right now, and probably won't be in the near future in my current group, so I'd like the chance to improve my skills. This would be mostly in java, which I haven't done a lot of, so again it would be a chance to add some marketable skills. I like my current group, and if I did go to this group, I hope easing out of my current group wouldn't be awkward. I know it might leave them kind of short, as there is a lot of work to do, and we're not exactly swimming in bodies right now, as we're about down to a skeleton crew after laying off so many. So, we'll see what happens. May know more today or in the next few days.
happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me, happy birthday dear me-eeee, happy birthday to me...
