Time change

It's 9:21 and feels like midnight -- outside, it looks like midnight by 7:00! I hate that part about the time change in the fall. By the time I get off work, get home and do anything about dinner, it feels like night-night time. Who can get anything done when it's like that?!

On the bright side, I finally entered the gazillion receipts floating around in my checkbook (almost a week since I'd entered anything!) and, though it reveals there's almost nothing left, at least I know where we stand. The bills are paid, so good enough.

I lucked out w/an interview tomorrow that cancelled on me this afternoon. I had to call this person twice and e-mail once to get that cancellation, but now I'm free. Flake. Still have one other interview, but it's an all day thing and I'm just going to plunk the guy down in a conference room and let all the interviewers go to him all day. Sweet. Maybe I can finally do my OCTOBER (now October/November) newsletter! So busy. Too busy!

The puppy is going to town on his Bully Stick right now. Do you know what those are? Let me break it down for you. It looks like a cross between a stick and a bone, smells terrible and he LOVES it. It keeps him busy endlessly. And that is why we pay $10 for a pack of 3 that might last a few weeks. Anything that can 1) keep him entertained; and 2) keep him from gnawing on things like furniture and feet is A-OK with me! We also got him a big fuzzy pink and purple soccer ball that he can bite and run around with. The best part? Too big to roll under the couch like his mini tennis balls! We're getting quite the education over here, friends. Puppy 101.

He's still the cutest.

Did I mention the husband and I planted some flowers in the front walkway last weekend? I can't remember. For about $50, it actually looks like someone lives here! I'm so not the green thumb. I really can't remember if I mentioned that already -- and I'm too lazy to go back and read.

The sister in law is visiting from Texas next week. She's lived there for about a year or two now. Texas. Over California? I think not. But, that's where her fiance and she decided to move to (I think he's from there) and though it was supposed to be temporary, I guess the housing prices there enticed them to stay. Lemme tell ya something . . . if I move away from California, it sure as hell ain't gonna be to Texas. Nothing against Texas, but I'd be heading for Maui myself! I can sleep on the beach.

I guess that's it for today. Wow, did I just post twice in the same week? Wonders never cease. Next time I'll try to think of something funny.

I hate the time change and I think I have to do something about it.

Glad the puppy is such a tidy kid for you now! It's worth the chewies to have them happy.

That's great that the puppy is now house trained. It's the best feeling EVER!

I like Texas, but probably not over California.

It's wonderful to hear someone who says "hey, I love living in California!" cuz, you know, no one really says that anymore. LOL.
