And another thing...

For some strange reason I went back and read the letter I sent to the Girls' Group in-charge Chick... still sounded OK.  I'm still banking on the August time frame.  :-)  Or she could ignore it completely... we'll see.

In the meantime, I am enjoying the quiet evenings of No Bubba, Just Shelby (because you know its all about the bass - No Bubba...)   and now that song is stuck in my brain.  Going to make for a great afternoon..

The other hinge in my afternoon is the pending weather.  They are predicting storms to hit - just about rush hour!  Yeah!!!  Quality time with Carpool Buddy.  And now the clouds are darkening... wonderful.

The weekend was busy/quiet... we didn't do much, but did some stuff.  Went to a party of the neighbors behind us - then Bubba went to spend time with his friend who ironically is moving to Pittsburgh.  I went to dinner with the neighbors, had two very yummy margaritas went home and died.  Woke up at midnight, just as Bubba was coming in and we went to bed ...

Got up Sunday and Bubba went riding I spent the AM in the PJ's then did the weekly shopping; laundry and other stuff.  I got a delivery from Amazon - new pillows!!!  They were all wrapped and flat, so I unwrapped and unboxed them - and went running errands... Bubba gets home and nags at me as to why I bought flat pillows!  I told him you have to wash and dry them first... he didn't believe me.  Then I showed him the affects... yeesh.  You'd think he'd learn - but NO!  Never wrong... and never admits it when the evidence is right in front  of his face!  I must say they are nice... very fluffy.

Monday saw Bubba on the road again, only this time in Philly for training. He sent me a text at 10 something last night - I got it at 5 AM this morning.   Welcome to our lives.

Nothing else planned this week, makes for happy Shelby.  I also have the OTHER neighbor coming over to let her out, since my regular gal is out of school and on the road.  And now I have a company coming to help out my old gal.  She scared the crap out of me Friday, her back leg was spasming and it didn't quit for over an hour!  Called the vet - by the time we got there it was all over.  Could have murdered that dog!  So we upped pain meds for the weekend, she slept.  Then Monday when I got home she was all bouncy and happy and ready to go!  I took her with me to the Girl's Group meeting and she laid like a good girl and basked in the loving fawning.   Then we came home, and putzed, got things ready for the cleaning lady and went to be later than I should have.

I'm trying something new in the mornings; trying to make smoothies and lay off the mini-begals. Problem is with slow moving puppy and prep work I have to get up earlier to get this done.  Not sure if things are healthier but I looked up some recipes today.  One called for whole milk?!  We'll see but Aunt Ing's new clothes are getting a little tight... gotta work on our habits.  Not having Bubba home helps smaller meals when I get home. 

All right - back to work.  Quiet day today... calm before the storm??
