pinochle

learned a new game last night. actually, i was told i was taught it once before. i honestly don't remember. but that is usually how it goes when i'm being stubborn. i just block it out of my mind!
jas and chris came over after they and nick played soccer. it was cold and i'm not a big fan of running! :) we had some schoops and watched chicken little. it was cute. jas made us rewind a few times. so did nick. they have a tendency to do that on the funny parts! not what i expected, but good nonetheless.
then it was on to double solitaire. gosh, i do love that game. i will have to post the rules so you kids can give it a go. after three rounds of that, jas decided we should play pinochle. boys vs girls of course. kinda fun. i have to admit i was a wee bit tired but it was really fun to play. i'm thinking that is going to move up on our list of favorite card games: boston, spades, pinochle, double solitaire. and that listing was in no particular order. if nick is reading this, i totally need a disclaimer!
went to bed way late. darn time change it was past 3 am. woke up to a lazy rainy day. nick and i have just been hanging out: playing games, watching shows we had tivo'd, did laundry, and now he's making dinner.
ah, i love lazy days.
