I came down with a cold on Monday night. I think that was the last time this week I had a decent nights sleep. Unfortunately when I get sick I get super sensitive..and so any lil' noise will wake me. Kind of like tonight...I got to bed at midnight and a bird started signing outside our window at 3:00 am and didn't stop until 5:30. ARG! So, ( Read more... )

My whole intention Sunday was to get our new garbage disposal installed quickly and then get Goober to the park for the day..  Unfortunately, I should have realized that I was working with water, and EVERYTHING water related around here was done incorrectly by the owner..  So, I got under the kitchen sink yesterday and took out the old garbage ( Read more... )

Thought I would post a brief update on what we did during the weekend ( Read more... )

So, we've been here for almost a year and we still are without a doctor and dentist. I figured I needed to go ahead and try to at lesat find the dentist since Bear tried one a few months ago and that person sucked. So, today was my time to try a dentist out. Of course, being a shut-in, I still totally clueless when it comes to roads around here ( Read more... )

We started the weekend off with some giggles and cuddling. I knew Bear wanted to get started replacing the water softener and I wanted him to start it early. He sat down and started watching Austin Powers though. I tried to get him up a few times and then finally said, "screw it" and cuddled up besides him. The movie was over by 11:00 am and we ( Read more... )

Friday didn't start out the best...it was my day off and I had a meeting scheduled in the morning. While waiting for the meeting, I found out that one of my Purchase Order's had been cancelled because it was sent to the wrong person via SAP. When I started to dig even further into this issue, I then found out that I would have to request a new ( Read more... )

Weather has been *gorgeous* today. Bear decided to stay home today and work from home and get a few things done during his beaks that could only be done during the weekday ( Read more... )

It's been a good weekend for the most part. I took the day off o Friday (it was my scheduled Friday off, so I really did use it), and I painted our staircase hallway. The paint we picked was suppose to be a "peach blossom" color, which meant it was a lighter color peach. When I opened the can though, it appeared to be *much* lighter than what I ( Read more... )

Ok, I don't normally feel this way, but this really is getting ridiculous.. I was on a teleconference call and the doorbell rang. It was the County Code Enforcer. She got a call indicating that one of our neighbors believed our fence was too tall for its placement. She came by and said that we abided by all of the rules and everything looks ( Read more... )

So, I know I've been wasting money out the wazoo because our dog likes to have the ability to run outside to the backyard when she wants to and will pick the most inopportune times to come bark at me while I'm working at home. If I'm teleconferencing all day, I'll often times just leave the sliding back door ajar so that she can go in and out. It ( Read more... )
