This weekend was mostly about attic work and other errands. I'm still digging around in the attic and trying to get everything put in place with the new recessed lighting. The insulation makes it so hard to get the lamps in place. So I spent a good chunk of Saturday up there with a respirator and coveralls on. The van, I was told, also was slipping and sliding on the slick roads quite a bit lately, so now it has two new tires from Discount Tire which was just built across from Menard's fairly recently. No throwing the tires through the window. The good news about that is that gas has been so cheap lately that there was enough cash in our automotive envelope that we could pay cash for the tires. That was $367.41, too, and there's still some left over. The kids also had free passes to the Warsaw varsity basketball game Saturday night, vs. Elkhart Central, which Warsaw won easily. The free passes just happened to be for being on high honor roll :) Friday was Jacob's birthday party, which both the kids were invited to, so Beth and I had a mini-date and went to the Boathouse. First time going there in a while, and neither one of us were all that impressed...seems even more overpriced since last time we were there.
