Four things I've learned today
1. If you're at the post office trying to send a package to Iraq, the people behind the counter are a lot nicer to you.
2. If you're buying a sandbox for your kid with your kid, salesmen are really helpful, especially when it takes forever for one of the other employees to figure out what the price is, because that means the aforementioned salesman gets to sit at one of the picnic tables, relax, and chat. With a cute mom no less! Lucky guy.
3. The local butcher sells prepackaged 3.5 pound bags of frozen bones for $1.99.
4. My kid is always, always, better behaved than I expect him to be when we have to run lots of errands. I need to give him more credit.

Thomas is going to be so jealous, he's been angling for a sandbox for over a year now. Once we get to Ohio, I'm planning on it, but for now ...

It was the first thing Henry asked to do when he got up from his nap a few minutes ago. You guys'll have to come over and help us break it in.

We're so going to take you up on that; we went to Wallyworld earlier for flowers and they (of course) have the kids pools in the same area, so Thomas was convinced we needed to take one home. Thank goodness we already have one!

What do you do with pre-packaged frozen bones?
