DAY 3
The carpets have been professionally cleaned and the nursery is ready to be furnished. A quick trip to Ikea to buy a rocking chair and to Jysk for some baskets and it looks like our nursery will be complete. Ring ring!!! Sears calling: "Your furniture won't be shipped from the manufacturer for a while. It could be two weeks, it could be two months." Just great, with ten and a half weeks till baby, we might not have our furniture in time. Olive Garden's all you can eat pasta will have to mask the anger for now, SO YUMMY!
DAY 4
R&R is to only thing on the agenda today, not gonna go anywhere, not gonna do anything strenuous. Spent some time on the new Pottermore website. I must say I am impressed. Here is the low down on the site:
You go through main scenes of the books chapter by chapter finding items which can be given to friends on the site or kept for later use. Lots of background info is available on each page where you can learn everything you never wanted to know about every character, location, spell, etc. When you get to Diagon Alley you are given money and a shopping list which you must use before you can go to Hogwarts. Once the list is fulfilled you get your wand by answering seven questions and then the wand chooses you. You arrive at school and must be sorted into your house. Answering several question will determine where you belong, I got put into Slytherin :) Finding items such as potion ingredients and text books will earn you house points and the house with the most points will win the House Cup. If you have read the books you will know what this is. Other parts of the site include potion brewing, spells, and duels. (All of which earn you house point when completed.) Great site so far considering it is still in Beta testing mode, but as of next month it will be in full force and anyone can log on and have fun with Harry Potter and Friends.
