Beautiful Saturday

Wow it was beautiful here today. Sunny and around 70 all day. Perfect. I can't say I went bike riding though. I did work out for 35 minutes this morning on the ellipitcal which wore me out. Ran a lot of errands and such things. It was nice to just be outside though. Still not much organizing or cleaning done. Oh well.
I came to a realization today. I hate it when something that's good changes and then it sucks. Last year my bank that I had been with for 11 years was bought out be one of the BIG banks. I didn't have much of an opinion on that then but I sure do now. Today I deposited $1600 in my checking account, half of which was a cashiers check. They put the funds on hold anyways and this afternoon when I tried to withdraw cash I wasn't able to. Hmm. Looks like I will be looking for a new bank as this along with other minor annoyances isn't making big bank look all that great. What a pain in the ass.
I also went today and bought the book that I'm going to read for a book tour for the Open Adoption Examiner page. I read about the book tour on Weebles Wobblog and it sounds interesting. Lavender always has all these great posts about open adoption and while I'm not really in the place where I'm looking at adoption, being adopted myself still makes me interested in her posts. I've read the first two chapters so far and I'm not sure what I think. But I'll be posting eventually about it.
Not much else going on. I have a bunch of little projects to work on around the house. I might do them tomorrow and I might not. Someday though it would be nice if I could walk through my second bedroom.
I hope everyone else is having a good weekend.

Sounds like an annoying bank. :(

Hope you're able to get some projects done. I have a few myself.

Hope you can find a bank that leaves you satisfied. Is there any way you qualify for a credit union? They beat banks hands down.

We're probably one of the few who has a closed adoption because that was her bio mother's choice. Lovey Girls bio mother told the agency that it would be too painful and she didn't want to pick us or know anything about us. Lovey Girls bio grandmother is the one who want to see any pictures and updates. LG's bio grandmother was also adopted. The fact that her bio mom didn't want anything to do with her makes me very very sad because she is so fantastic. I'll keep submitting the pictures with the hope that someday she'll want to meet Lovey Girl.
