Thursday the only semi-wild thing was the amusement of using the read-aloud feature on Word to read Badmoon Rising. I was just kind of curious how it would handle it. For the short passage, the auto-narrate function didn’t do too bad. Although I found it amusing when it read HK45 and "forty-five Hong Kong dollars."

Friday was the due date for one of my big monthly reports. This was the first month I got to use the new acronym for my team. My team went from Business Intelligence and System Improvement Service to Joint Enterprise Data Improvement Service. You do the acronyms.

Also on Friday, I got all excited to take the Xterra to go pick up the groceries. I love my Xterra, but I just don’t get to drive it very often. As I’m going down my street, I notice a crack in the windshield. I hit a bump. Crack extends. Quick turnaround and switch out for The Wife’s car. Schedule for windshield folks to come out next weekend.

Saturday was The Wife and MIL doing a lot of work for Easter dinner. The Wife planned to go all out since this will be the first time her whole side of the family will be in attendance, as well as my mom and The Brother.

Also on Saturday, we scheduled the final payment on The Wife’s car. According to FB memories, it’s been four years since I paid off the Xterra. Now, we’ll have her car paid off in twenty-three months. Good feelings.

Sunday started with The Wife’s niece and great niece coming over early. While the niece studied, The Wife and I took the toddler down to the local park. Fun was had. Then there was an abbreviated Easter Egg hunt. Lots of the family came over for Easter dinner. The Wife and her mother got rave reviews on the decorations as well as the cute bunny cupcakes. Which they deserved.

All in all, a great weekend at Ward Manor.
