I got kicked off the couch
Someone decided that my spot was hers. All I did was go down into the basement to fold clothes and returned to find Lucy had not only moved over into my spot, but she had commandeered my pillow too.
Brat.
And she has the nerve to give the stink eye when I snap a few pictures.
Theraputic dog snuggling
I had plans to get some housework done this weekend. As usual, with any plans I make, that fell through. Instead I spent all day yesterday spoiling the dogs and reading.
Why did I do that? Well, I woke up with a cranky back so I figured rather than cause it more strain I’d put the Tens machine on it and relax. By night-time, my back felt pretty darned good.
I do love my little Tens machine. http://therapulse.com/
You all have a good one. I’m going to go back to cuddling with Lucy.
Looking forward to a quiet weekend.
Lots of running around yesterday. Damned tiring.
G and I stopped at one mall, then ran to Target, then the farmers market. At least, through the use of a recently found on my desk amongst the piles of crap Starbucks gift card, we got to enjoy large salted caramel mocha cappuccinos on our travels.
I think I’ll spend the weekend at home. There are many things I need to get caught up with.
You all have a good one. I think I’ll join Lucy on the couch.
Busy day yesterday and sad day today.
Yesterday I took Gavin to the vet for his yearly check up. All things taken into account (such as his age) he is in good health. The appointment with all the tests cleaned out any extra cash I may have had this month.
So much for a big Thanksgiving dinner. We didn’t need it anyway. I’ll make a simple chicken dinner with Stove Top Stuffing, gravy, a veggie, and some cranberry sauce. The Curmudgeon will be happy. I won’t be stressed…yep, it’s perfect.
Last but not least, Today would’ve been Mary’s 57th birthday, she was born on my parent’s anniversary. Love you kiddo, I will always miss you. Happy 78th anniversary Mom and Dad. I miss you both every day.
You all have a good one.
Sometimes it pays to do a bit of desk cleaning
Some days it pays to tidy your desk. I found a $15.00 Starbucks gift card I forgot I had. I went online to check and see the balance and it is all there and available.
Dang, had I’d known this the other day G and I would’ve enjoyed a nice cappuccino.
Now we have this to look forward to next time we go to Target or the mall again. Whoohoo!
G pointed out this pillow to me when we were in a little store in the mall. Yes, it had to come home with me.
You all have a good one and I hope you get a pleasant surprise today too.
Keep Momma away from Halloween stuff sales.
OMD! The Momma should never be allowed to go shopping without supervision!
Sir. Yes, you sir. I need to inspect your candy.
Show me the candy and no one gets hurt.
Such a serious paw shaker.
Yes, little one. I see it.
The leaves are getting deep around here.
I am so glad I snapped this picture the other day before the tree lost any more leaves. This is our sweet gum tree.
The magnolia and tulip tree are dropping their leaves like crazy. Yep, it is fall for sure.
Then out front we have a street full of maple trees and they are all rapidly dropping their colorful clothes. Every time I open the front door I have to sweep the porch clear of leaves or they track in.
You all have a good one!
So windy!
I hadn’t planned to take down the background yet. However, with the winds we had, the background almost took itself down. The furring strip I’d stapled it to was standing on end and wedged between roof and porch floor.
Yep, I took it all down. Then I brought all the fabric inside and folded it to put away in one of the large storage containers with the rest of the Halloween things. I even dragged the bins down to the living room.
There you have it, the decorations were going to stay up a few more days because I am basically a lazy person. Now, due to the weather, most of them are ready to pack away. I’m not sure if I should thank the weather gods or not. *Giggle*
Happy Birthday to our Gavin!
He’s a whole thirteen years old now. Hard to believe that much time has passed since Linda and I picked him up at the airport customs office.
He was eight weeks old and such a cute little guy that everyone in the customs office fell in love with him.
The Curmudgeon didn’t know we were picking him up, he thought Gavin was coming two weeks from then. We fooled him and showed up at his work with Gavin. The dispatcher called him into the office to see someone who stopped in to see him.
I loved the look on his face when he saw me with little Gavin. Priceless!
This is Gavin at 10 weeks.
This is him on his birthday yesterday.
Mwahahahaha!
Daddy, she was just kidding about making me into witch’s brew…wasn’t she?
Dis is just for photography purposes right?
Momma has to build her prop tomorrow. Right after she staples the background to a board so it doesn’t fly about.
