Week Three of 4/10


It's now week three of working 4/10 schedule. I'm looking forward to having tomorrow off - I do feel a bit tired - part of that is because I didn't sleep well the other night and haven't caught up. So far, the last two Fridays have been very busy ones - both days I had to stay home in the morning because we had the garage door people here. I'm looking forward to getting an earlier start on errands tomorrow - maybe I'll have time for a nap later in the day.

No guitar lessons again until September - we're on summer hiatus now. Actually, it works out fine for me. I think I needed a break.

Since I hadn't posted one before, I decided to post a picture of our fence.

The Fence is Up

For those of you in the know, our new fence is up - tomorrow they come to finish up and work on a short punch list we have put together.

It is such a relief to know that we can let the dogs out and not worry that they have to contend with the little terrors next door or that Peanut is going to climb the fence. We spent the entire weekend cleaning things up and putting down some new mulch. We hope to have a "fence party" sometime soon to celebrate the fortress!

I want to get more into this blogging thing - but, man, it's sometimes hard to find something interesting to talk about. So, I need to take a page out of Carrie Bradshaw's work - find a theme and write about it. So, I will think about a theme and when I come up with one I will write about it.

That's all for now. Bye.

We're in pre-vacation mode. Created a long list of things we need to do before June 7 - we spent most of the day running around and only really completed one item on the list. But, we did get Father's Day cards - at least we're ready for that. Had lunch at Outback - burger and beer! Yummo!

This evening we spend several hours watching Sex and the City - into season 3 - but the darn dvd player started acting up - I'm thinking that after about 3 hours of running it gets hot and starts to malfunction. The player cost about $40 - sometimes buying cheap isn't a good idea. So, no more tonight.


In the meantime, Peanut crawled into Mir's lap. Ain't she precious?

Sydney Marie

I started feeling guilty having left Sydney out. Here she is - she used to be our problem child -but with a good shrink and pills she's come a long way.

Boxer, aka "The Prince"


Boxer is the love of my life - except for Mir, of course. He's my sweetie, my prince, and my boy. Just wanted to share him with you.

Sex and the City

Our friend has loaned us the dvd set of Sex and the City and our plan is to watch every episode prior to opening night of the movie. We're going to have Cosmopolitans before heading to the film. Should be lots of fun.

Peanut Needs a Home


This is our special needs dog, Peanut. She has been traumatized by an evil older stepsister and needs a new home. Please find it in your heart to welcome this wonderful doggie into your life.

First Post

Hi, not sure what I'm going to be posting - but wanted to give this a try.
