Monday, Monday

We bought a new television in August 2011. Nathan wanted a plasma tv so we got a nice, big Panasonic. Monday morning we tried to turn it on and only got red blinks. Not good. We had to call a repair shop to come out and fix it for WAY too much money. But look at this thing - it's not like we could have fixed it ourselves! We contacted Panasonic because we thought 21 months was a little quick to have these big repairs and they did offer to pay us back a very small part of the bill. 

The good news about Monday was that a dear old friend from Lansing stopped by to see us. I've known Civa since the early 1990's. We got to know each other really well in 1994 when we both went on a Habitat for Humanity trip to Kentucky with our church.  Anyway, she'd made a quick trip home to see her mom and stopped to see us on the way to the airport. Chloe was still sleeping but Megan was up from her nap and had fun playing with Civa's phone.
