Not really a blog unless you actually blog...

Heidi reminded me of this fact today! And I'm not really sure who is going to read this anyway except maybe Heidi and my mom. :) Since I write the same way I thinkk random and scattered, this might be more interesting than you think!

I was planning to go to yoga tonight (after missing the last 3 weeks) but I have to work at Jeremiah Joe Coffee (JJC) tomorrow night and Thursday I have a Rotary training thingy so I thought I should spend time with Belle and the washer and dryer tonight. I've done 3 loads of laundry and folded the three baskets of clean stuff that has been sitting the bonus room for a week. Belle loves to carry around our clothes and shoes and so I though I would try giving her one of Matt's old shirts to carry around and maybe she would give up on the good stuff...we shall see...right now she is curled up on the couch with her two legged frog and the shirt snoring.


We got an exciting email today! Back up a few months...I decided I wanted another dog, since the baby thing was slow, so we applied through a Lab Rescue organization to adopt another Lab. We got a couple of offers but none really seemed to be the righ fit so we decided to take our name off the available list. Last week Matt emails me a link to one of the dogs on the rescue site and she's beautiful. The very same day I get an email from the orgainzation asking us if we were still interested and if we might be ready to adopt. I thought it was fate! So, with Matt's semi-permission, I emailed her we were interested and we were interested in this particular dog. Fast forward to today, I get an email: we have been selected from a bunch of applications to meet Meadow. So we are driving all the way to west of Milwaukee to meet and hopefully take Meadow (soon to be renamed something else...tune in for the new name later) home with us! She's a 6 month old chocolate lab who was rescued from a barn. The foster mom says she is wonderful and she's a great little puppy. Just wait until Belle gets her hands on her...she's be disobedient before you know it!

Heidi was supposed to come stay with us this weekend but she has a lot of homework and several projects and now we are going up to see Meadow so it all works out for the best...as long as we plan to get together sometime VERY soon!

So now I'm watching taped Martha Stewart show episodes and not much else is going on. Matt is at an OA meeting, he has two meetings tomorrow night and another one on Thursday. I'm not sure when I'll see him again, LOL!

I hear the dryer beeping, laundry calls...
