Mike's Happy!!

Well, my husband is happy now. We had put off completing the rec room. We didn't have a proper entertainment unit that would fit his big tv and components so we had it sitting on the coffee table with nothing hooked up. We finally got a proper stand to fit it and we hooked up the components and hooked up the tv to the stereo. He can watch his movies now in stereo in the basement where it's cool so he's happy. Plus we also got a giant umbrella to put on the back deck. We used to have one of those canopy things on our old deck but this deck is just a little too narrow for one. When the sun would hit the deck in the afternoon it was stinking hot on the deck and Mike would bake when he BBQ'ed. The umbrella we bought is huge and covers most of the deck. So all in all I think Mike had a good day.
Took Graham to his baseball practice last night. He is getting much better at hitting, he cracked a couple just outside the infield, as he says...he's a ringer...never one to let you think he's not doing well.
Elysia is still not feeling well. She's certainly better than Sunday. She skipped her soccer practice last night but has a game on Wed and the tournament this weekend. Her schedule on Sat coincides with one of her friends from Halifax so we should be able to see one of her games as well so Elysia is happy.
