Walking the dogs

Last night I had the brilliant idea of taking all three dogs on a walk. I normally walk Abby and Remy by myself in the morning and have always had good control over them, so, since Matt was going with me, I thought we should take Kafka too. Kafka doesn't walk like ours do, they have to walk beside me with their shoulders even with me knee, so with Abby and Kafka trying to be different, they were making me very frustrated, so Matt and I switched. I took Abby and Remy and off we went down the street. A few houses later, Abby and Remy saw a cat. They pulled so hard, it pulled me to my knees and then I lost my balance and the next thing I knew, they were pulling me on my back across someone's front lawn. Matt was so surprised, I had to yell at him to help me. I was soooo mad. We have an overwhelming population of cats hanging out around the neighborhood, I think I'll start calling animal control to get rid of the issue.

I know I entertain some folks at JB Hunt with my dog stories, so I hope you guys get a good laugh out of this one!

Garage Sale

I had a garage sale today and sold a BUNCH of stuff. Shoes, Clothes, my palm tree, some chairs, Matt's old laptop...I made just shy of $450! Not too bad for one day of work. I had also sold some shoes on Ebay, so that was another $35. If Abby would have held still long enough, I would have tried to sell her too (just kidding!)

Kafka is staying the week with us. She's such a good dog. Unlike the hyper-active Weims.

So busy!

I decided that we have too much stuff and we are going to have a garage sale, maybe next weekend. We re-arranged the living room and now are getting rid of 2 trees, a chair, random home decor, a large dog crate and whatever else I think we don't use any more. Here's some photos of what our living room looks like now:

And the Scooba stopped charging correctly, if you plugged it in, you would have to prop it up against the wall for the charger to make contact, so Matt did an autopsy and corrected the problem, YEA!! I can't live without my Scooba!

New Laptop.

Somehow, Matt talked me into letting him get a new laptop this weekend. I'm not sure how he talked me out of going to Maine again this fall (tickest were cheap from XNA to Manchester NH, $340, I was excited) He told me I should read The Art of War. He found one on sale that he liked at Best Buy so we picked it up on Sunday afternoon on the way to my parents. Normally when we go to Best Buy, the sales people swarm like vultures, this particular day, we couldn't find any to help us. And of course visiting that store with Matt always goes something like this:
