Oh, Kaiya.
It’s been a rough evening. Neither child wants to settle down. I’ve made a few trips upstairs for some well-deserved discipline. Mostly for a certain little girl. After one such trip, I had just gotten comfortable on the couch so I could continue listening to this on my ipod, when I heard a massive thump, followed by wailing. So I drag myself upstairs again and find Kaiya laying in bed, under the covers, just slightly disheveled.
Me (as sternly as possible): What happened?
Kaiya (between sobs): The wall hit me!!!
Me (holding back laughter and trying unsuccessfully to conceal a smile): The wall hit you?
Kaiya (holding her arms out for a hug): Mmmm hmmmmm!
Oh, Kaiya.
My New Toy
Last night, Jarid came home and handed me a package. This is what was in it.
A Nike ipod armband. Without the ipod. Apparently, a customer came into the store and had this armband, but had bought another one and wasn’t going to use it. So he gave it to Jarid. Sweet.
Now we need the ipod. Which is awesome because I’ve started running in the mornings and it would be so much more enjoyable with music.
Oh, but wait. While I’m fixing dinner, Jarid walked around the corner and handed me another package. That’s right.
Of course, my immediate response is, “What did you do????”
Well, let me tell you what my wonderful husband has done. In typical Jarid-fashion, he has worked his tale off, shown his work ethic, and helped get a business off the ground and on it’s way to being very successful. For that, his boss is greatly appreciative. Thus the ipod.
And thus, I am very appreciative. Thanks, Kyle!
Being new to the ipod world, it took a little bit of doing, but I was able to run this morning with music in my ears! Yay.
Now I just have to burn all of my Napster tracks to cd, rip them back onto cd in mp3 format, find them again, and import them to my iTunes library.
(insert sarcasm here) Brilliantly orchestrated. Well done, Apple.
Either way, I am super pleased.
