nerdy?

Interesting reading

I don't know how he came across this site, but Bob printed this out and I thought it was rather interesting...maybe even a little frightening at how acurate it is.

This is my dog, Jasper. He's a very good dog most of the time. We got him the beginning of January. He's a lab mix, but mixed with what we don't really know. So far he has gained about 10 pounds since he came to live with us (he was a shelter dog). Isn't he handsome?

saw this on my porch, couldn't help but take a picture 

The birds!

I saw the strangest thing today as I was coming home from work. I pulled up into the road that leads to my house and there was a huge flock of birds flying in a spherical pattern above the woods at the end of the road. There was another of the same a little farther away, but not very. I ran inside to get the camera or the video camera, but when I came back out (less than 2 minutes later) they were gone! not a bird in sight! I'm not sure what kind of birds they were, but they looked like gulls. I've never seen birds fly in a sphere before. it was very odd.

Various stuff

Over the years I've started collecting various things like salt and pepper shakers, postcards, squished pennies, monkeys, etc. Well I suppose the latest thing is patches. When Bob was in Texas he got a bunch of patches from the state parks there, and I have gotten some from around here. Museums and aquariums and zoos usually have them too. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with them but I have quite a few now. Maybe I will sew them all to something and hang it on the wall when we move to our new house. Eventually maybe I'll have a whole room covered with patches from all over the place!

That reminds me, I will be moving into a townhome in April. The rent is going up, but so is the square footage! There are three bathrooms and we will have a guest bedroom finally! and a garage! We definately don't have enough furniture to fill the thing, but that's ok, we'll figure something out. I'm really excited because we'll have space to have dinner parties and things. Also, the closet in the master bedroom is huge! It's almost like another whole room. I can't wait to get in there and get organized.

The puppy has to go to the vet today to get his booster shot for some doggy disease. He had a tick the other day. It was nasty! Bob had me hold him down and he pulled it out with some pliers. Ticks are disgusting! I guess it's warm enough now to put him on flea and tick meds.

I had a very pleasant dream about a picnic and opening a library last nite. I was wearing a red dress, and when I went in to check on everything there was a bunch of mail for me. When I opened it there was a bunch of packets of seeds. I was very excited in the dream and woke up feeling very happy and energetic. According to www.dreammoods.com a picnic means a joyful and tranquil domestic life. red is the color of energy and passion, a library symbolizes the search for knowledge and hunger for ideas, and seeds mean new ideas and new experiences. Sounds like a very positive dream!

Ok so I'm off to spend a few hours with my hubby before I have to go to work.

Hitch

ok so we went to see Hitch and it was hilarious! I could not stop laughing when Will Smith was teaching Kevin James how to dance. The parts with Will Smith's love interest weren't that good, but Kevin James is the funniest guy! If you haven't seen it already, you definately should.

Me and my hubby 

Chain Story #1

Deep in the forest he sat. A lone figure huddled beneath a tree, shivering. The rain was pouring steadily now, but he no longer noticed. He was soaked through and there was nothing else he could do about it. He pulled the blanket a little tighter around his shoulders and scooted closer to the trunk of the tree. "Why did I ever leave home?" He wondered to himself. "Well, I guess there's nothing to be done about it now. I can't go back." With this thought he drifted off into sleep. When he woke up the sun was shining. He ate a meager breakfast of dried fruit for he could build no fire with the soggy wood that was laying about. When he had finished he repacked his blanket, shouldered his pack and continued through the dense trees that surrounded him.

Bob is enjoying his new job with Rooms To Go. So far he hasn't had any horrible experiences. The worst thing is getting up so early!

I've started to learn how to crochet. I'm learning very slowly, but I think I'm getting better. I am thinking of trying something a little more challenging as soon as I finish the project I'm working on now, which is a blanket for Delilah. That is IF I ever finish it. I'm not sure I have the patience.

We got a dog. His name is Jasper and so far he's been pretty well behaved. He does NOT know how to walk on a leash without choking himself to the point of wheezing terribly. But so far he's only ruined one pair of shoes, two blankets and about 4 of his toys. I guess that's what dogs do, and I don't suppose I could ask for a better one. He hasn't messed the house and he hardly ever barks!

I've been getting into cooking a lot lately and eating healthy, too. We are only buying organic milk and eggs, and soon we are only going to eat free range meat. no hormones or pesticides for us, thanks!

Thanks to Rachael I've been keeping the house spick and span! She set me up with a program where I have a few chores each day instead of trying to get everything done on my day off. It makes it much easier to keep up with things! Bob even helps out with stuff, even without being asked! It's nice to know that people can stop by without me having to worry about how messy the house might be.
