Love on the Bed!!!


I am very very excited. Sabrina just started getting on the bed! Every night we used to do "love on the bed" when we would get home from work. Well, tonight it happened!

She jumped on the bed and I totally petted her and she played with her tennis ball.

Enjoy the picture! Tonight was a GREAT night!

The Unexpected....

Well it surely has been a day. I got up, did the standard frap from starbucks, washed my car, went shopping and when I got home thought I would start laundry! I went downstairs and was soon walking in about 1/4 inch of water!!! The water heater burst!

This is something I really DIDN'T want to deal with today.

The unexpected! Oh what a joy!

Adjusting...

Well, I am slowly adjusting to life in Minneapolis. There are good days and not so good days. Sabrina has adjusted really well and is even playing more with her toys. She and I have a routine when we get home and it's the same one as in Forest Lake so I think that helps her.

Well, I am finally getting adjusted to my new boss. She has a totally different style and I am used to working for people who are not as self sufficient as she is. I find myself floundering around, trying to get her to "be an EVP". Perhaps the adjusting still has to be me!

Well, I am adjusting to my new eating lifestyle and have lost 14 pounds (a total of 28 since December of 2004). Slowly but surely it will come. If I think about it, I only have 24 pounds to go to be at the weight I was went I went to college in 1979. My goals are on a much smaller scale - one step at a time.

Well, I am adjusting very well to being so close to Mom ... only 4 minutes away with lights! A couple of weeks ago I called her and we went for a dairy queen. It was very fun for me to do this on the spur of the moment!

Well, I am slowly adjusting to life here in Minneapolis!
