Happy Father’s Day to all the dad’s out there. Today we are spending a relaxing afternoon at home. I picked up some steaks and lobsters for the grill and we just finished watching Winter’s Bone (which I’ve had from Netflix for 3 months). It was very good. It always amazes me how long I sit on a DVD from Netflix before I actually watch it. It’s just hard to work a non-kid movie into the mix. The timing has to be right, etc.

I know it’s Father’s Day weekend but my Blackberry was dying a slow death, so I ended up getting a new phone. Yeah, I know. It’s HIS day yet I end up with a new gadget.

So this is my new phone…the Droid Pro. It’s a touchscreen AND has a Qwerty keyboard. The perfect transition for this Blackberry user. I really liked my old Blackberry, but the new operating system leaves a lot to be desired. So far, I am loving my Droid Pro. If the iPhone had a keyboard like this, I’d go with an iPhone as I love Apple products but this has both the keyboard AND the virtual keyboard in landscape. Perfect.

The rest of the weekend is kind of all over the place. I trimmed The Boy’s hair, washed the dog, did a bunch of laundry, went shopping for the week and now I am just worn out. Hoping to unwind a bit over dinner.

If I get a chance to sit down, I plan to continue with The House of Tomorrow. I’m liking it so far, but I did what I can never do. I put it down for too long and now I don’t feel like reading it again. Does that ever happen to you? It has nothing to do with the book, it’s just the time away from it. I just can’t set a book aside for too long.

Anyway, Happy Father’s Day! Hope you are enjoying the weekend.
