Worst Part of the Day - Each time that Wes needed to be put in his car seat today was a complete struggle.  And it's to the point that it is hard to get him strapped in if he doesn't want to.  So I try to get him to "buy in" with waiting him out, threats, treats ... it's so annoying.  It's become this complete power struggle and I just want him to GET IN THE FREAKIN' SEAT.

Also Erik made it to Jacksonville with the dog (bringing him down there so we can leave for Michigan this week).  The dog has already chewed up the frame of the downstairs door (really finished the job he started in 2005.  Bad Dog Clarence!)

Best Part of the Day - Tree removal dudes showed up on time (!) and got straight to work.  They worked the entire day ... I was muy impressed.  Also scheduled the fridge to be fixed (there was a recall on the door), the security system peeps to come over, called Am Ex about the fact that while my points were deducted I was charged full price for my computer, got the upstairs computer working again, did laundry, steam cleaned the rug, cleaned out the laundry room ... and more, more, more.  

Nice - At the playground today this young lad came up to me (about 9) and asked "what is his name, we couldn't get it."  So I say "oh that's Quinn."  "Okay, Quinn," he says.  "Come on Quinn!"  And then this lad proceeds to hang out and totally entertain Q.  So cool.
