Alllllll Done........and a Bit of Everything Else.

I am so glad that my craft room is done. It is a pain to have to move everything but it was so worth it. I can now have the window open wide and my papers are not flying around all over the place. ****Sigh**** That's my sigh of relief now that it's all said and done.

We also went shopping yesterday after Donte got home to get the boys their football stuff. OMG we spent a small fortune. All well worth it though. My boys have to be protected!! Most of the stuff that we picked up was Under Armor. I figure with the cold here it's worth a little bit extra to keep them warm/cool and dry. They are totally excited now and keep drooling over the bags of stuff. It was funny to see them in the football pants. You can really see how gosh darn skinny they are. I am sure that they will stay safe out there and yes they are tough as nails, so they will be good. I will keep repeating this to my self until I believe it. :0)

Today is an absolutely beautiful day here. It's 77, sunny with a good breeze going. Needless to say the air conditioning has been turned off, all the windows have been opened and the four of us are just hanging out. In fact all four of us are still in our PJ's....it's 4:52PM. I even sat out on the back patio and read some today while the dogs layed on my feet and fell asleep.

Speaking of dogs. The house we have here doesn't have a fenced in yard so our dogs have leads outside. They can run and play and all of that but I hate leads. Donte and I really wanted them to be able to run like they used to. We broke down and ordered a PetSafe Wireless Containment System. I also ordered an extra collar so both dogs could go out together. We excitedly opened the box and put everything together. The instructions say that it takes approximately 2 weeks to train a dog. We set everything up and put the dogs on leashes, we got their treats, and went to work. It took ONE day to train my two. The can go outside and run around and still have their border. The system actually gives them a warning beep before shocking them. When they hear the beep they back up pronto.

Well I am going to go back to my lazy Sunday because before I know it, it will be Monday......but wait.....I'm off then too. :0)

77 degrees and no AC? I'm jealous. You know we won't get that until November down here. I could use some fall weather.

Maybe I'll catch your busy bug and finish folding this embarrassingly high mound of clothes. I hate laundry.

Good luck with football. I'll be thinking of you hoping that you're not spazzing out once they start playing!
