Hard Day's Work

Yesterday I did my best to get out of work before it got too late. I ran to the store and bought some goods. Picked up a window air conditioning unit to try out. Also bought some weed-b-gone.

Spent a few hours in the yard. Cut the grass. Weeded. Watered. Spread out some mulch and fertilizer. The yard is looking better if I do say so myself.

Earlier yesterday I woke up quite early. Kit Kat had not even got up yet. She normally leaves the house before I wake up. I looked at the time and wondered whether she had gone to school. I peeked out the front door window, and saw Kit Kat walking down the street to her bus. She had her rainbow purse in tow, and her purple backpack on her back. All was well.

Alarming Situation

I recently got an iPod touch.  I am really not an avid ipod user.  When I got the gizmo, Little Kat and Kit had to show me how to use it.  I think Little knows more about it than I do.  Funny how that works.

Well, I decided to use my iPod as a back up alarm when I was out of town last week.  I found out that it does not work if the system is powered down.

Kit told me that she used her iPod as an alarm all the time and I figured I was doing something wrong.  As we were waiting for the kitten's flight at the airport yesterday, Kit set the alarm for me to show me how it worked.  We got to talking and forgot all about it.  It was suppose to go off at 7:45 am, the exact time their flight was leaving.  It did not work.

 However, this morning at the hotel it was working perfectly.  Seems that I had it plugged into my computer, "charging".  All I know is that is a heck of a way to be awaken.  Black and I thought the front desk was calling but no, it was my ipod alarm.  It nearly gave us a heart attack!  Thanks Kit for setting the ipod to go off at the crack of dawn (7:45 am) without our knowing!!  Either you are an evil genius or a lucky teenager.  I love you.  Don't worry I disabled the alarm and I hope to have a restful sleep tomorrow...or will I?
