Odds and Ends

  • I had a hot date!!!
We receieved a much needed downpoor on Saturday which gave us an excellent reason to skip the yardwork and head out for a matinee date. Of course I promptly picked the Worst Date Movie EVER!!! "Knocked Up"...what was I thinking? Okay, I was thinking it would be a light hearted romantic comedy with a little rough language. Yuck! Yuck! and Yuck! Instead it was a film that left me with the ICK--depressed---no wonder our world is so messed up feeling. I give it a big thumbs down.


  • Hey, Hey, we're the Monkeys

There will be no more Tales from the Zebras, but don't cry--we've been promoted to the House of Monkeys! Still 3 year olds, still adorable...just a few more in the class. We had nine today. May I just say once again, my hat is off to daycare workers and preschool teachers across the land. They are an absolute blast, but still required a l.o.n.g. afternoon nap to recuperate...or was that the BBQ we ate for lunch?
  • The List
This went on hold again after the bad rumors hit the boards last week. You don't even want to know how bad. Apparently, it is just in my nature to need a deadline (aka procrastinate) in order to put my butt in motion.

  • Gift from the Grandparents-To-Be

This little gift rates pretty high on the cute-o-meter. It's a CD that plugs in Kayla's name during first couple of songs. They are catchy tunes and Sunday School songs. The label of the CD is really sweet.

Here's the website http://www.nicholescreations.com/ where you can buy this an all kinds of other goodies.

In Other News
  1. I've subscribed to quite a few more blogs which are added in the "SO CLOSE" section. These are mostly fellow November LIDs. Some are early in the month, so we should see some sweet chubby cheeks and estactic posts soon.
  2. Not all Kitty Litter is created equal. We will be switching back to Fresh Steps Multi Cat strength faster than you can say..."do you smell that?" Yes, we only have one cat...but whew-whee!
  3. You can look forward to an upcoming post of before and after pictures of the poochies after being groomed (sorry...until we get a referral it's the best I've got).

Great post.
Yep, we are the same way, we have lots of thing we COULD do to get ready for the China trip, yet we sit here waiting and waiting. I couldn't count the number of lists we have downloaded and printed.
There must be a name for the "waiting" disease!

I always like a good puppy picture! :)

We saw Knocked Up this weekend. It had some funny moments. That is all I can say.

Saw your comment on our site. Thanks. We have a dog that will get a summer grooming too on Thursday. I'll post on our pets page under Gabby's links. Hope our wait is coming to an end soon.

Saw your comment on our site. I still think you have a good shot at September, but it's close, especially with the 22nd being so big.

Wow, Shannon! I think I'd rather have my head wrapped in duct tape than be seen at a movie called "Knocked Up". Oy! OK ... We did see "Shrek the Third" and had a good time. The first 2 were better.
.....Waitin' on the pooch pics ......
We are following right along as you progress toward referral and wish you good times during the wait. It's not long now.
Thank you again for your hearts for adoption.
Don ..... & Be
