Mindless chatter - TGIF!

 I'm pumped that its Friday for some reason.  Not sure why really, as none of my days are really any different than the others anymore.  Kale goes to school during the week, thats about it. 

I have to do something today.  Not sure what.  It looks like its going to be nice out though, so I bet it'll be something outside!  Maybe I'll just take the dogs into the yard and get them to help me excavate a bit.

Oh, crap, just checked the weather network and it looks like thunderstorms this afternoon.

And In other news.  Tyler and I cannot agree on a name whatsoever.  He wants names like Kennedy and Kasha.  I'm leaning more towards Kaia everyday.  Kiya is also up there.  I'll get my way in the end, I don't know why he bothers arguing.

I need to order Pi-man's meds too. Sigh. I hate payday.

He wants names like Kennedy and Kasha

I am in love with the name "Kennedy"! It's gorgeous!

I'm working all day today, and we're going to columbus in the morning. Anyone else going to rock on the range?

 I had to go to Lasing last night, I was driving home between 8:30 and 9:30 OMG we had the most BEAUTIFUL sunset!!! The only part I didn't like I was heading east, so I could only check it in my mirrors.

Busy day tons of meetings because of round two retreat. This weekend Teddi has a dock competition in Dearborn Saturday. Sunday nothing special just ride and feed the barn horses.

I love the name Kaia!!! I think its very pretty!

DH is coming home today from his work trip, hoping to do something not sure what. Hopefully we will go out to dinner and catch up since I haven't really talked to him in a few days while he was away. Tomorrow is going to be crappy, lots of work to do. I'm also getting a little antsy about not having a full time job. I only had a few interviews of all the places I've applied so far and no calls back to offer a job, ugh!! Is the job market here really this bad...

muauauahaha!!!! us at the office just got done hanging buttons around Samantha's office! (my co worker) she is TERRIFIED of buttons lol!!!

What is it about buttons that terrifies her???

When one of my co-workers (male  - 30 something) got chicken pox - he was really, really sick.  We got a picture of a chicken and colored in big red pox on it and made about 1,000 color copies and wall papered his whole office for his return to work !!

It took him about 3 weeks to get all those chickens down !

I saw the Prince Caspian movie last night. I thought it was boring. Before the movie, I went to the fair that was by the mall, because we were there way too early. There was absolutely no crowd to see the movie. The fair was pretty good, but the movie was not worth staying up that late.  

She has no idea why she is so terrfied of buttons.  She won't go near them, won't touch them, and if she does go near them they make her physically sick to her stomach

Buttons?? Like the ones on clothes?  I'm confused.  Is she going to get sick now when she sees her office?? 

I had my first Dr appt and sonogram today.  OMG how exciting!  It made hubby and I both get a little tear when we saw that tiny little heart beat going strong!  I am so on top of the world right now and we are starting to tell more people.  We aren't sure about telling my step daughter though.  We think maybe we should wait until she gets here which will be right at the 12 week mark.  My estimate on due dates was right on...within 2 days of the sonogram.

The weather is dreary....again There's only been maybe 2 or 3 sunny days since we've been back from FL.  it makes me less then happy to be back.

I have loads of drawings due next week....trying to stay optimistic that I'll get them done....but....there's quite a few of them.

I feel totally unmotivated to do ANYTHING, even at home.  There's tons of stuff I could be doing more walks w/ the dogs, they need brushed, clipping nails, folding laundry, etc.  But I don't feel like it, I just want to crawl into bed...

Sunday is DH and I's 3 yr anniversary....I think he's gonna forget, but maybe I'll be surprised....

Geez, reading this I sound a bit whinny.....trying to think of something happy to say to counteract that......oh yea, it FRIDAY!!!! Yay! no work tomorrow!!

What a weird phobia! lol

 Btw, I love pulling pranks like that on co-workers :) I had an anal retentive super orderly co-worker once that I went in his office and re-arranged everything. I even turned all of his pictures and note hanging type things upside down and backwards. Needless to say he got me back but used the entire office to "frame" me so to speak.

OK, work meetings over for the week. Yay. I have a ton of things on my to do list though before next week when I have to go to Rockford IL. What is in Rockford IL anyway? I hear a whole lot of nothingness.

Sat is going to be a whirlwind of cleaning. Cleaning the house, doing laundry, cleaning the car and yard. I have to get some grocery shopping done so I leave my sister with some food while I'm gone. I have to make up a how to feed the animals instruction sheet for her too.

Sunday is an art fair. I love art fairs! There's also a 30-day adopt a thon that I wanted to go to. They ahve $15 microchipping and free vaccinations. I'd like to get my cat chipped and vaccinated.

Hopefully the weather will be decent. I have a million other things to do too but those are the priorities.

On a really positive note, Dakota is just doing wonderful lately. By restricting her diet totally she now has more energy, is losing some weight and is much happier and friendlier in general. No more diarrhea either!

Lily is also doing much better with her socialization. She rarely barks at adults now, only kids, and even that's getting better. I plan to take her to the art fair and expose her to all of that chaos.

Neiko - well he's Neiko - I have no complaints :) We just need to work on frisbee. I'm wondering though if I should take him to a chiropractor because of all the jumping he's doing lately. I might look in to that.
 

Well, our visit to the adoption agency yesterday went REALLY well!  Who knows, maybe, within a couple of years, we might be a full family!  Yay!

The weather is beautiful today and I feel really optimistic about life - today.  I have convinced a bunch of others at work to take a "Blizzard Break" at Dairy Queen this afternoon.  There is a DQ on the other side of our parking lot and their HQ is a couple of blocks away so they are always on their toes.

Mmmmm...any suggestions on what flavour to get?  My usual is chocolate covered cherries but I'm open to suggestions....hint.....hint....
