After being up late again last night, I was slow getting up. Rainbow Slick had to go to work today. Goosebump The Snow Princess made an unusual early morning {before 9:30am} appearance just long enough to say she wasn't ready to get up yet. Anyone could tell that just by looking at her. I looked over to see if BearBait was up yet and all I saw on the couch was a sheet completely covering her. I guess she wasn't ready to get up either. I needed my coffee so I got my stuff together and brewed up a cup and heated up leftover blueberry pancakes from yesterday. I went back in on my air matress and layed down while they got up and had their breakfast. We took turns on the computer and before long it was lunch time. I emailed Moosie...my next planned hostel stop on the way to Maine to see about coming up there to Ct. He emailed me back and said it would be better to come the next day, so I told Goosebump The Snow Princess and Rainbow Slick the good news...they get me for another day!!! Rainbow Slick was home for lunch. They seemed overjoyed, and there is still enough food in the fridge to last that long.After Rainbow Slick went back to work we decided we needed to do something, so we watched a movie. Bearbait brought out a few movies and I chose "Office Space." Brian, the plumber came over and fixed a leak in the bathroom and we got him to take our picture. It was about 2pm and we were eating junk food, sitting on the couch and were holding up signs to different destinations. He probably thought we were crazy. He took our picture and told us we should keep the door locked because there are some strange people around here. We finished watching our movie and Goosebump The Snow Princess said that she wanted to make chili, but needed some stuff at the grocery. We went outside for the first time today and picked up the items she needed and got back just before Rainbow Slick got home from work. It's amazing how fast some days go by. Goosebump The Snow Princess made another delicious meal and then got on the computer and booked a flight for BearBait. She has to go home to Houston for a few weeks, so we are taking her to Philly in the morning to catch a plane. Rainbow Slick helped me upload some more pictures onto my journal photo section. It really seems easy when you know what you're doing. He's been a great help. If I would have known I would be able to post some pictures, I would have brought more with me. These pictures were just a few I already had in the truck.I understand that Moosie's Hostel in New Milford, Ct has a cleaning lady come in and tidy things up so I think it's time to go over there and visit for a while. I sure hope those were the correct directions that Moosie sent earlier.I really appreciate all the extra hits everyone is giving me on my journal, but the way I figure it, we are going to need to do it more often if I'm going to catch Liteshoe.(Transciber's reminder:http://www.trailjournals.com/liteshoe/)I got to see Goosebump The Snow Princess' tape of a balarina recital she was in last year. She was really good...much better than the others, but I wonder what she'll look like in a tutu in about 7 months with a baby in her belly.
