Hi Everyone!

An ice cream store? A porn shop???

I bought Jessie and the family ANOTHER dog!

Here's the story, and I'm sticking to it!

Somebody offered me a little male yorkie who needed rehoming last week. I knew I should have kept my big mouth shut, but told Jessie since I didn't want to take him. Sadly, he was hit by a car thew very next day. I don't know if he made it through, but will call and find out this week. How tragic for the poor little puppy!

Jessie and the kids have always wanted a yorkie. I offered to find a little female for them, since that's what Jessie wants. I guess I'm a sucker for giving them what they want, but I do enjoy making them happy so much! I may not have anything to leave them when I die, but I sure will give them what I can while I'm alive!

To make a long story very short, we found a wonderful breeder close to us. She had a big puppy - probably couldn't sell her because people want them small. She only charged half of what she usually gets, and we went over that night and took her right home! Her name is Muffin Precious Wright, and she should be around 7 or 8 pounds fully grown. Her mom is 11 pounds, and her dad is about 4 pounds. She is such a sweetheart! A really affectionate sweet little baby girl!

Here she is, sleeping on top of Ginger, the Japanese Chin I got them last year.
(This is their Christmas present, just like Ginger was last year).

I have to save pictures in Paint to get JPEG. The thumbnails come out like this though. I haven't figured out a way to fix them yet.

Judy...she's a cute all right!!! Have you tried using Pixriser? I always resize to 33% or 50% and you can save it to whatever you want. Here is the link and it's really easy to use...

This being back at work thing really sucks. I wish I was rich and never had to work again lol. Somebody buy me a winning lottery ticket please

What a long week so far! We're really busy but kind of disorganized at work. Being out of the loop for a week means I'm a little unsure of what is going on with projects now, except they are due soon!

At home we have started putting everything back together after the painting spree. Scott put up a new ceiling fan in the living room, took the chandelier from over the kitchen island and moved it to the dining room (replacing another ceiling fan) and put up a new light over the island (not sure what it's called... it hangs low and is bowl-shaped lol). I got a chance to put the old ceiling fans up on internet classifieds this morning but haven't gotten any replies yet. We'd like them cleared from the dining room asap!

This weekend my parents are taking my brother and his girlfriend to a football game, so Scott and I are taking the girls for Friday night. He'll pick them up from daycare after work, since the football crew will be leaving in the afternoon. I'm excited to have them over again I just got word that on Saturday, everyone is coming out to our house for golf and supper again! I'll have to figure out something to make now. My uncle is also bringing out my treadmill in his truck so I need to clear a space for that! My brother kept it at his house when I moved into the condo.

It is getting cold here... we're starting to have frosty mornings, yellow leaves are falling off trees, and I'm sure we'll have snow in a month. I'm kind of glad for it though, because life slows down in the winter!

Lindsey...you know we need pictures of your home improvements. I just know everything you and Scott have done is lovely.

I had a great time at an auction yesterday. I posted about it on another thread. Today...I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I'm here alone for the day so I've not turned on the TV or radio and just enjoying the silence. Dogs are sleeping so no barking at the moment from them. I am trying to get laundry caught up, seems like a never ending battle.

Rick and I went out for supper last night while Ricky was at work. Of course....I paid mine and he paid his. We talked a bit, but nothing too deep. I was in the mood to drink, which doesn't happen very often so I had a Filet of Pork wrapped in bacon, potato wedges, cole slaw and 3 beers. They were sooo good and sooo cold. To be honest....I could have drank another, but my son will never see me in that kind of condition... ever!

Wish I could see you all today....

Well POOP! Gary and Bryan were going fishing this evening/night - but now there is rain coming so they can't go. Oh the rain is good, just not this evening. Gary has been soooo looking forward to going - he hasn't been fishing since we were in Alaska. He loves it so much. Bryan was taking off work tomorrow so they were going to fish from about 5:00PM to whenever..........

I feel so sorry for him - but then again, there will be another time!

Truthfully, I was looking forward to an evening alone too . I don't get many of those!

Ha Ha! Betsi! You are half right, and I won't say which half is right!

[gja1000]

[Blueyes]

DING DING DING! You are half right Betsi! It's a ice cream and cupcake shop. We were talking to the owners the other day and they said they were originally going to call it:

Licks & Bites

But then someone said that sounded like a vet clinic. LOL! It kinda DOES!

So, they came up with Lick It, Bite It or Both. You see, you can get ice cream (lick it) cupcakes (bite it) or BOTH!

[gja1000]

Janet, a few beers sounds good to me too. I don't ever drink either, and it usually because I'm the designated driver. Gary doesn't drink much, but he doesn't see well and doesn't like to drive too much, so I usually do all of it.

I'm like you though, I don't like to drink too much. I don't think I could drink even 3 beers!

[Janet]

I drove over, but since I knew I was going to enjoy my drink(s) he had to drive home, so he limits it to two. I was worried though....I thought he had more during the day and his driving proved it. I just made him drive the back roads and slow. I won't drive at all even with just one beer in my system....if I would ever get caught...I'd lose my job. Next time I need to take a non-drinker with me...lol


Can't they go fishing in the rain or are you expecting storms? We've done it many times especially when it's been so hot. Seems here the fish will bite at the drops...lol.
