Not much today

Not much "doin" around here for Labor Day weekend. I'd thought about taking the boys to the pool for one last "hurrah" before it closes, but the weather is so incedible (in the 80's) that I think it'd be too cool for the water anyway.
Today we are stuck at home waiting on the Sears repair guy to show up (sometime between 8am and 5pm how convienent)to take a look at our washer. The darn thing quit on me on Tuesday morning. The motor runs but the tub won't turn so hopefully it's just a belt or something simple b/c I don't want to have to spend big bucks to repair it or buy a new one.
The wind blew our outside patio umbrella over last week and I'm hoping to find one on clearance at Garden Ridge or somewhere of the "likes" to replace it. This is the second brella we've lost to a little high winds this season - I often fail to remember to go outside and put it down in time and then the wind picks it (along w/the patio table) and heaves it into our bbq grill and the side of the deck and "wammo" the wooden ribs break and the fabric usually gets a big tear. Not really worth the trouble of trying to repair as a new brella is usually only $25.
Guess I'll be watching the Razorbacks this weekend as my main form of entertainment for the holiday weekend. I am seriously hoping we don't get spanked by USC as bad as last year. Wishing I could go to the game b/c the weather in Fayetteville would be awesome this weekend!
I suppose not much else to say today - sorry no pics - hopefully I'll have something after the weekend is over.
Peace Out!
