The clouds finally parted and out came the sun along with a double rainbow. Andy did a mini-geek out and I just rolled my eyes.
Apparently I'm not one of the 7 million people that have seen the "double rainbow guy" on YouTube.
Here you go if you haven't:
Double Rainbow Guy
I obviously was not as high as this guy when I saw the rainbow.

On Call
Andy has been on call the past two weekends, once because it’s was his turn and the other because a co-worker did not want to be on call so badly, that he paid Andy $150 to carry the on-call phone.
Let me explain the on-call bit for a non-doctor. The “super duper important” customers that Andy helps sometimes need assistance on the weekend and in the two years Andy has worked at Microsoft, I think he’s actually helped someone twice on the weekend. So basically, he just hangs out with an extra cell phone in his pocket all weekend.
Now, let me say that Andy being on call is a huge WIN WIN for me! I know, it sucks maybe having to work on the weekend, but Andy can’t even commit to a round of golf when he’s on call. I’m totally selfish, I know, but having him stuck at home for the weekend isn’t so bad in my eyes!
The past two weekends of being on-call have proved successful for Project Nursery. Andy primed and put up the wainscoting in the baby’s room. And today we finished it up with nice coat of gleaming white paint.
It looks a little silly now without the chair rail, but that will be installed after we paint the rest of the room. And that will be done when we decide on a paint color. And that will be done once we find bedding. And that will be done once we figure out what we’re having!
So until then, 90% complete will do!

I want to be a billionaire so effing bad
I don’t really…but that song has been stuck in my head all week. Well the first part is a lie, I think we’d all want to be billionaires if we had the option. Note to self: work on becoming a billionaire.
Travie McCoy - Billionaire
I’ve been on a bit of a blogging hiatus this week…and let me tell you, it feels amazing. Not having to think of a quipy one liner, not whipping out the camera to take a photo of everything or anything that might prove funny at some point, and of course this also means Tucker hasn’t been acting up which is always great.
But now, the guilt is setting in. Not that I’m leaving a massive amount of people lying in wait for my next post…but hopefully there are a handful of you I can entertain and I made a commitment to blogging so damnit, I’m going to blog…whether or not there’s a story to tell.
And sadly, I have no story to tell. It’s been project central at the Fellows’ – I’ll post some pics once they’re completed. Andy’s working super hard in the garage and I’m diligently surfing the internet. Do you know how much baby stuff is out there? Good lord it’s insane. So obviously, I’ve got my own work to do. And my Gap card is offering triple points right now…so I have to maximize that, right?!

long weekend!
I haven't been at work since Wednesday afternoon and it feels amazing! It was a fun filled weekend with too many stories to blog about - so some photos will have to do. We hit up an engagement party, Alicia's cabin on lake Sallie, Laura's cabin on lake Isabelle and followed it up with a little adventure to the Biz.
Me, Kris, Trisha and the bride-to-be Ang
Swerving Gerving messing with Andy
Yes, that's me in the water...don't worry, I didn't get wet getting on the floaty.
One last photo with my Phase 3 friend.

the 4th
It was a fun filled 4th of July weekend for the Fellows – and by weekend I mean just that – Andy and I both had to work Monday. I mean honestly, who has to work the day after the 4th of July? So sad.
Saturday morning we packed up and headed to the Deere’s cabin on Cass Lake. The Natwicks were already there to get the party started. It was a beautiful day on the lake so we took out the pontoon and soaked in the sun. Well, that’s a lie. I’m a really big talker when it comes to the sun…I got too hot within a couple of hours and sat in the shade the rest of day. I’m nervous about burning this bun in the oven!
Tucker got to spend the weekend at the lake too – he made a new buddy, Boone. They fetched the ball a hundred times, or however long the biggest sucker would stand there and throw it.
We had an awesome fish fry and then Josh tried for hours, literally, to get the UFC fight. It’s a you had to be there kind of story, but trust me when I say he kept us fully entertained while on the phone with customer service (yes there were a few cocktails involved).
And of course there was Olivia to amuse us for hours. She hammed it up for the camera and hung out with the big kids all weekend. She was also very concerned with Tucker’s whereabouts throughout the weekend …because he was usually in a time out.
