It's Monday

Carson is a fan of football and the Bears were his team of choice, that was until they lost. So now his favorite team is the Patriots, go figure. During the games that were on yesterday he walked in the room and said, "Hey, is the thunderstorm team winning?" I was a bit confused at what he was talking about, but then it clicked. The San Diego Chargers have a lightening bolt on their helmets and Carson came up with the practical name of the Thunderstorm team. Makes sense from the eyes of a 4 year old.

Speaking of 4, Carson will be celebrating his 5th birthday on Friday. We're having a kid party on Thursday and then the family party on Saturday. So there is much to do to prepare for the festivities. First on the list is trying to clean the red stain out of the carpet. We've already gone through several methods of which none have succeeded. I went and priced new carpet this morning and must say it will be a last resort. We are having a carpet cleaning company come out on Wednesday to see what they can do. Note to self, never again buy red Gatorade or any red beverage for that matter. The dye in it is resilient once it gets into fabric or carpet!

That is my big word for the day, resilient. I did an internet search on Thesaurus.com and noticed the sponsored link advertisement right above the definition was for new carpet. Is that not ironic? I am surprised I didn't see a Gatorade advertisement listed as well.
