I Hardly Hate People Who Buy Me Stuff

quote by happy bunny.

Friday was cold & dreary. Clouds in the sky. Took Harriet out to the park in the morning for a run while hubby & I biked. Kids came over in the afternoon to pack up all their stuff in the basement. Bravo toyed with a mouse while they were here.

Kelsey proudly showed us the keys to their home. They had signed the paperwork for the mortgage that morning.

We loaded up the trailer around 6pm and headed over to the kids' new house. After stopping off mid-way through Spoky-Jo to potty Bravo & 'Lil Bit, I found a lucky penny (heads up) on the ground. Should have worn a sweater or jacket as the temperature dipped down into the 60s. (Farenheit)

Finally got to The Wally-World parking lot to meet them and found out that the Thai food restaurant was closed. Instead we stopped at The Hut to order pizza. Went to their home and ate pizza while 'Lil Bit pooed & peed on their new floor. Bad dog.

Left at 11:00 - got home around 12:30; "almost like driving to the coast" hubby stated! He was tired, but we weren't able to go to sleep right away. Stayed up to watch a dumb movie.

Slept late on Saturday and then drove to the park with Harriet & 'Lil Bit for a run. Harriet is getting the hang of pacing beside the bicycle. 'Lil Bit just runs his little heart out-but he dog tracks! Keeps up with us very well as he has to take ten times as many steps as the big dogs.

Found another yard sale and bought something. Hubby is getting quite adept at finding deals.

Athol Daze was in full swing as we drove through town - Hubby worked in the shop for the rest of the day, then took a break at Victory Auto Parts for free hot dogs.

I spent the day looking for new wrought iron beds. KRL-N said that we could have their king size bed if we wanted. I need a bigger bed as all the dogs sleep with us now. No room to move in our tiny queen. However, the company that I purchased my beautiful iron bed from 2 years ago has now discontinued business. I will have to choose something else.

The garter snake was slithering around in the backyard by the dog water. Gross-a-toasty.

Alan came back from Seattle with our new topper. Only have to paint it black & install it. Should be about another week before we can use it for good. While down at the shop, Bravo found another mouse - a HUGE one. Must have been about 6 inches long & several inches wide. This was one fat mouse. He toyed with it, shook it real good, then trotted off into the woods to bury it. Don't. Kiss. This. Dog. On. The. Mouth.

At 8:00 we went for a real late ride at the park with the dogs. Came back - got ready for bed.
