In my all encompassing wisdom to replace the missing part from Babie's 'R Us I failed to notice that step 11 required another major part that we were missing. So we are once again stalled in our effort to assemble the Exersaucer. It looks like we are going to go with the government contractor route with the delivery of the replacement unit to Bedford later this week. Why build one when you can build two for twice the price?

In other news Jeremy is stuck at Emerson hospital after having tried to learn to snowboard at Nashoba Valley. Amazingly Emerson hospital has a large team of people dedicated to emergency head injuries, torn ACLs, and broken wrists. In Jeremy's case he fractured his wrist after falling on it instead of falling on his head like I told him to when he asked whether to go snowboarding or skiing. Snowboarding is not a very kind sport to the newbies. So he's getting repaired with pins tomorrow that should have his hand out of action for six months with an injury similar to the one that I had when I was playing basketball. Since us Jews tend not to tattoo he'll at least get a great scar out of it. He was probably just jealous of my scar.
