Quack...

For two days in a row, the weather man at 5-something-AM has said "its a good week if you're a duck". He was referring to all the rain we're about to get - and downpour we got last night.  Thunder and lightning and Shelby in the rain -- oh joy.

The old girl hates the rain, worse with high grass and major wet... there is a lot --"Shelby - GO you have to PEE".  Thankfully I have the neighbor giving the helping hand this week, so that allows for some extra time, and a shorter day for my girl.  Actually got to walk her in the sunshine yesterday afternoon... then had to deal with major downpour later that night.  Good and bad, ying and yang I guess.

Bubba is traveling -- he told me a story yesterday.  I was good - I didn't laugh when he told me because he was mad (at himself!).  He took the wrong bag, and was almost to his office (a 90 plus minute drive) when the airline called... and basically said "Hey dumbass - you got the wrong bag!"  so he turned around, drove back to the airport, exchanged bags and then did the 90 plus minute drive AGAIN.

Snort.  Snicker.  There is a tag on your bag - didn't you look for the Shelby like tag?  You bring a big black bag that looks like every other big black bag... but Mr. I'm Busy and Important didn't.  And he paid. Giggle. 

I'm an awful person.  It's a mistake, anyone could make. Snort.  But oh so much more fun when 'perfect' Bubba does it.  Tee hee hee. (Goin' straight to hell for that one)

Semi-busy week; meeting Monday and Thursday.  Thursday is my monthly trek into DC after work...groan.  This past weekend was very mellow - and rainy.  Bubba and I went to the movies.  He lamented more than once that he couldn't ride Lulu... I too lamented that -- enjoy that bit of quiet time. But I did get other stuff done, and Shelby had company.  All good things.

Gov boss is gone this week; so things are quiet at work.  Not that she didn't leave a list... but I'm glad for that - keeps things semi-busy.  Plus its nice to have a break from the go-go-go that she has been pushing lately.
Tonight will be quiet.  Just me and Shelby, dinner early, bed early, and we'll start it all over again.

Been fighting the munchies demon lately.  I've been drinking more water (making commutes home fun!) and trying to pack better things, and still I --snack.  Plus with Bubba on travel getting to the gym is hard due to Shelby duty.  And not wanting to see Shelby Duty on my floor...

ANY way... I'm fighting the battle, losing some days, winning others.  Need to discover something new. We'll see how I do.  Plus I just bought new jeans so we'll need to keep those around and not shrink "in the wash"

Later --- sorry this wasn't terribly interesting today.  I'm blaming the weather.  Quack, Quack
