TV and tales of weekends past

Well, finally I feel like posting. I've been trying to the past week or so, but never had the drive to actually type one out. So finally, here I am.

First... I must let the dogs out... of course, when I actually sit down...

Ok, back. Now for the hopefully quick TV wrap up.

THE OFFICE - wow! I loved it. The only thing that I didn't like was that I thought they could have done more with Dwight taking over, although the Schrutebucks were pretty cool. Along with the Stanley nickels of course. I was so surprised that Pam actually spoke her true feelings. And the ending..sigh. Laura said it right "that ending was so for girls." :) Now the surprise of the evening was in the final seconds when Ryan gets the corporate job. So where does that leave Karen. I can't wait until next season!!

SCRUBS - I was disappointed. There were some laughs, but ugh, I almost wish it would have ended. And then to end it where it seems that JD and Elliot are going to throw everything away. Personally I think that they are going to stop themselves before they actually kiss and they will stick with their current person, but then again, who knows. So aggravating in my opinion.

GILMORE GIRLS - I thought they did good with this finale. They showed most all of the town characters. There was no blaring Luke and Lorelai are getting married moment, but I thought it definitely hinted in that direction. I love that the series ended with them at Luke's. I was also happy in the first couple minutes. Lorelai and Rory were discussing taking a Roller coaster trip and they said they were going to go ride the Millennium Force in Ohio. It made my night. :)

7th HEAVEN - I actually got to watch this one. I thought it was a kinda strange way to end the show. 10+ of the characters all piling into an RV for a trip across country.... I thought there would be appearances by some of the other "kids" but there wasn't. The show had a nice long run.

And lastly a quick note about Survivor. I was really glad that Earl won! And unanimously! Wow. I really wasn't expecting that. Overall a fairly good season. Australia is still my favorite though.

OK now to reality. Two weekends ago was a great weekend. We spent some time in Ashland. Jason graduated, so we went to see that. While we were there we got to check out the new buildings and additions. Absolutely amazing. Especially the new sports complex. There is a huge new pool that can be used by students pretty much whenever and a HUGE fitness center. Too bad we didn't wait a couple of years. We just missed that stuff. I made an album with pictures, check it out.

Then we went to a co-ed baby shower for the McGrady's. It was great seeing everyone! Unfortunately we had to leave before the Mexican Restaurant so we could pick up Ohlen and get home at a semi decent time. We had a lot of fun at the party, and I think that Jon's mom had a ton of fun watching Ohlen.

Then this past weekend Jon, Jon's dad, and Royce (Jon's Uncle) put up our deck! They aren't quite finished with the railing- so I can't take Ohlen out there yet, but it is super awesome. I can't wait to have people over and have supper out on the deck. Or to sit out on the deck with a cup of tea and a good book. :)

Ohlen is doing great. He had his first taste of cheese today, he enjoyed it. He can pull himself to a stand and can move around between the furniture. It's just a matter of time now before he will be toddling all over the place. Then no more calm days for me. :)

Well I think that is enough of an update for now. :) Everyone have a great week.
