Things today...

Today is a very average day so far! But that's not necessarily bad.
The last few days I have been working on being relaxed and enjoying my time at home.
-I got a massage last week!
-I got a new pillow which is amazing... to think I wasn't sure spending $8 on it was going to be worth it :)
-I had two fun Mother's Day parties. And I think the moms even liked their gifts.
-I went to Charlie's softball game on Monday and it was down pouring so I just slept and read in the car. And then we went out to dinner!
-I watched hours and hours of Sex and the City over the weekend.

I am looking forward to the Secondhand Hounds Silent Auction this Saturday! And I am very happy that Jennie decided to be my date! I can't wait to see all of my donations in their baskets, I hope people like them!

Soon we will need to decide if we want to take one another foster dog. That would be our 5th. I just look at my dirty, dirty carpet and it makes it harder to decide :)

If I am going to take the time to complain about all of the bad things I also need to make time to remember the good things!

Complaining today...

Is it possible that my case of the Mondays has become a case of the Tuesdays?

Things have calmed down a little but I think the last three days has been full of mostly bad news. I am going to list them in hopes of being done with it all!

• Came home and my carpet is full of mud. If you are going to try to help, do it in a way that doesn't cost me time and money.


• Someone made a bitch comment about me at dinner- rad


• Charlie is no longer going to the Secondhand Hounds Silent Auction with me... solo


• Memorial Weekend plans are no more, will likely have to spend the holiday alone since everyone I know is going to be out of town.


• The dogs are overwhelming me. Saturday they freaked out at the Walk for Animals and Titan ran over a pre-teen who was sitting on the sidewalk. The whole deal was totally humiliating and disheartening. I wish that I could make my dogs behave perfectly but some days they have minds of their own!


• Bills are getting out of control lately. This year has been very expensive and lots of this stuff is coming due in the next month- two lasik loans, Charlie's wisdom teeth bill, endless Costco bill.


• Too many parties- fun but it's getting expensive


• I could also kick myself for not getting full rent for the month of May... idiot me.


• A puppy that was adopted from SHH was stolen out of his home the other day!! Who would do that??


• Charlie's new work schedule changed and therefore my plans have changed.


• Titan ripped apart my Calvin Klein duvet cover that I LOVED from inside his kennel.


• Interesting work news, not really that positive

Overall I would just like a little sunshine to come into my week! Is that so much to ask? I am not letting this all totally overwhelm me, but it brings me down when everything feels like its turned upside down.

One bit of good news, there may be someone interested in adopting Titan. He is a great dog, I just need to work on the introduction. He can't be away from Millie and Millie is out of control... hmm time to get creative!
