After supper last night I took the kids for a ride in the bike cart. Stopped by Palmer Park, then took the long way home, over to Radisson, up to Cloud Drive and back over. It's amazing how you notice how many slopes and rises and hills there are in our neighborhood when you're on a bike pulling two kids, and you don't notice it when you're in a car.
When I got home last night, I was going to go out to the mailbox to get the mail, and Hanna wanted to go with. Except she didn't want to walk. She wanted to ride her new bike. So we did. And after I changed clothes she wanted to ride down to the dead end and back a few times before supper.
Lately she'll pretend she's "Baby Stephanie", the baby of a friend of Rhonda's. (Hanna will say "I'm Baby Stepanee!") She'll crawl, or pretend to fuss, etc... Don't know if she's "regressing" a bit to catch up on a babyhood she didn't have, or if she's just playing or what. She definitely loves babies.
We switched to a different cell phone plan with Qwest. It has more coverage around the country where we wouldn't be roaming, it would be our local area, so to speak. Our new phones came yesterday. (Same numbers) They're smaller than our old ones, more modern, more features, etc.. Once we get outside the metro area here, it looks like the "local coverage area" follows Interstates and major highways, and then around bigger cities. Qwest has partnered with Sprint, which is how these new plans are possible. Qwest tried to do wireless itself, but got out of it. I suppose because it was going to cost too much to really build up the network needed to compete nationwide. Not having wireless is really hurting Qwest though. As people get rid of land lines to use just cell phones, they leave Qwest, and that loss in lines and customers has really hurt the business.
I watched a little bit of badminton in the Olympics. Wow, talk about fast reflexes.
I got a DT booster shot last night. My left shoulder is a little sore today.
I'll see if I can finish off Anna Karenina today.
