Sep. 15, 2007 - Thursday Evening
Good Evening,
The house is quiet for the first time today. The boys are in bed asleep or almost there and W is out at a Good Bye Party for one of the guys in his office that is being transferred to Newfoundland. I've got a little while to be on the computer, AHHH. Although I know I could think of a bunch of things that I could be doing.
Today was our last real day of school this week, we have to few catch up on a few things first thing in the morning and piano to practice, then we are free for the day. CW really likes the idea of 3 day weekends. I'm a little discouraged, once again I've got way too much planned into each morning and we get dreadfully behind schedule. I need to learn to relax a little, I know but that isn't in my nature.
W was off today, we like having him home but it does change the dynamic of our morning when he is here.....he doesn't like waiting to talk to me when I am busy with one of the boys. Our mortgage is up for renewal so he was on a mission to find the right one for us, so there were many questions and phone calls to be made. The end of the day brought us a new mortgage with the same company we were with, O well at least we now know we were getting the best already.
Yesterday we took Baillie, our eleven year old Border Collie, to get groomed for the first time ever. We weren't sure how she would react. Much to our surprise she was great and we came back to glowing reports about what a lovely dog we had. It was kind of weird, I felt proud sort of like when someone compliments your children. Now she looks like a show dog, so clean and white (where she is supposed to be white) instead of a dingy grey. We took some pictures to give to my sister because Baillie was her dog. When she went away to university Baillie was being couped up in the basement all day and it just was fair so we brought her to come and live with us and now she gets to be outside and run all day long, being a Border Collie she thrives on it.
Well I am going read some articles and knit away on W's new socks....he' s become spoiled and doesn't want to wear any kind but homemade.... I've created a monster.
Take care and have a good night.
