So yesterday was a busy day following a busy Tuesday and a weekend packed full of running around visiting and time zone shifting (one hour time difference messes with kids). Yesterday Fuller fell asleep on the floor of his room during quiet time. I know, I already told you this.

I just went into Fuller’s room, where he was being a super hero and spending his quiet time, to find Fuller asleep again. I guess he is still recovering from his weekend.

I’ve written before about Vista Print. They have supplied my husband with business cards before, and they were really great. We will definitely be using the cards next football season when Auburn Elvis makes his appearance at home games.

I will be heading to Orlando in September for a conference, and business cards with our updated URL is a must. When I traveled to Vegas last November, I had Moo cards, but they took such a long time to get to me.

At Vista Print they offer free business cards that look very nice. You have to stick with their designs and just put in your information, but the cards are still quality cards. (You still have to pay shipping, but it isn’t high.) The premium cards (the kind Auburn Elvis has) are really easy to create. You can pick from their designs or upload your own through the design wizard.

Also, the shipping is really fast. Damon ordered his cards and they arrived in a couple of days.

I would check out Vista Print. They have lots of products offered for free (self inking stamps, pens, magnets) and premium products like you can order checks for people who still do that (we don’t use checks any more).

On Tuesday Fuller and I went to play with Luke and Ben. We were “babysitting” but really it was just a chance for Luke and Fuller to catch up on their recent adventures without each other. Luke has a trampoline and his pool is getting ready for summer. Fuller took swim lessons and went to Lake Martin for the weekend.

The evening was ended with the little ones playing in the sprinkler. This was ok for Fuller, but he would have preferred swimming in the pool. This wasn’t an option because the pool wasn’t ready for visitors, so Aunt Esther told Fuller she would call him as soon as the pool was “open.”

Yesterday afternoon, Esther called with the great news. Except, I am keeping this information from Fuller since I know it is still too cold to really get some enjoyment from the pool. Maybe, if we hit 90 degrees tomorrow, we might head over there for a dip. And Fuller will be soooo happy. A little cold, but happy.

On Sundays we relax a lot, usually napping and watching TV. As the day moves to evening, the television is usually turned to the Food Network, since food is pretty much rated G and Fuller is running from room to room playing his imaginary games.

This Sunday, after Fuller goes to bed, I’ll be waiting for 10 p.m. so I can watch USA Network’s new original series In Plain Sight. It looks like an interesting cop-type drama. The main character, Mary Shannon, is in charge of watching over federal witnesses entering the witness protection program.

I really like Mary McCormack, who plays Mary Shannon. She was great fun to watch on The West Wing and I think she will be excellent in this role. In fact, I think it is because of her I am excited to see this show come on USA.

The show has some other interesting characters. The one who peaks my interest is Stan McQueen, Mary’s boss. Except the bio says he is more a father figure than a boss. And apparently he is boss in name only since Mary seems to run the show. I don’t really know anyone like that in real life, but in my TV dramas, it does add an interesting twist to see how much the employee can get away with when undermining her father-like boss.

If you have USA, think you will watch it?

It is 9:45 and Fuller is in bed, but not asleep. Today he was being an absolute angel. When he was sent to his room for quiet time (playing quietly in his room with the door closed) I went in to let him out and Fuller was asleep on the floor. I guess his weekend of fun caught up with him.

When we travel to The Lake as often as we do, I sometimes feel a bit dried up in my descriptions of what we do there, especially when it is as short as a weekend. The usual highlights were swimming, boating, riding the sea-doo, relaxing, and having eggs and bacon for breakfast. We mixed it up by swimming in a heated pool (thanks, Aunt Frankie) and going to church on Sunday (not something we normally do when at The Lake). And Albert has increased his breakfast menu to include pancakes for the kids.

I’m not complaining, I really like going to The Lake for get aways. The predictability of our visits is what makes it a comfort, relaxing, and something we always look forward to. And Fuller keeps talking about going to boating and playing with Albert, so I know he is already counting the days until we go back.
