Goodbye August

We celebrated August by treating a sick puppy. Tillie had some stomach issues that were giving her some trouble so I spent the day with her, giving her attention and monitoring her dietary needs. When Tillie isn't feeling well, she gets to eat a hard boiled egg instead of her kibble. Consequently, this is her favorite food in the world so I don't think she minds so much when she is under the weather. Only this time, I mixed her egg with baby doses of Pepto Bismal and she is doing much better. She is running and playing and pretty soon will be back to her old tricks.

We learned today that our YMCA has a competitive swimming league for people 18+ and Andrew is really excited about learning more about that and possibly getting back into swimming. I am going to be adding swimming to my workout which I think will help me gain endurance.

I've also discovered a place here in NLR that offers classes to get certified in scuba diving and I am trying to convince Andrew to do that with me. Maybe it's because of his fear of open water, but he doesn't seem as excited about it as I do.

Home Sweet Home

We're back from the wedding shower extravaganza weekend! We had a blast. It was good to spend some time with Laura and Dan again. We caught up, drank way too much wine, and did a lot of stupid things that we will be talking about for a very long time. Oh and Laura got some really nice stuff.

We've picked Tillie up and are back at home snuggled up and ready for bed. It's been a long day. We are ready for some rest.

Wedding Shower Extravaganza!

We are leaving for Ft. Smith this morning! We are going to celebrate wedding shower weekend with Laura and Dan. And this is the face of the puppy that has finally realized we are leaving and not taking her with us. It's sad but she will be fine. She is going to spend the night @ Nana's!

We'll be back tomorrow with plenty of stories, I'm sure.

Friday nights are perfect for procrastinating

This picture serves as a reminder to us that it is almost 11p on Friday night. We are heading to Ft. Smith tomorrow morning and we have yet to pack. What the heck is wrong with us?

Hung out with the rents today. Mom and I had lunch and did some shopping. I finally got the rest of my interview outfit. It wasn't what I had in mind but it is really cute and I look super professional. I don't care who you are, if I showed up at your office in that outfit, you couldn't help but hire me.

Our washing machine is broken. It won't spin out and leaves all our clothes clean but soaking wet. I guess I can't complain because we got it for free but I don't even think it's worth getting fixed because it's old and we are almost out of this apartment anyway and won't need it soon. Maybe I will freecycle it.

Have you seen the new Pedigree ads? They are cracking me up. Especially the one with the Chihuahua.

i hate everything about running

Today we:
watched TV with Tillie
had craft time with mom
went running around the lake
renewed library books
ate subway for dinner
tried to catch up on this past season of some of our favorite shows
killed a spider in our closet

Pizza is my favorite

I woke up at 3:00 this morning with a migraine. Two Excedrin Migraine and two ice packs later, I felt a lot better and got up with Andrew when he left for school.

He finally got his books but is still trying to get some of his financial aid straightened out. He is really enjoying his nutrition class still. He actually read his assigned chapters before class and took notes. I am so proud.

I went shopping with my mom this afternoon. I am on the lookout for a shirt to wear with my new pants for interviews. I didn't really find anything. But my mom did buy me two jackets/sweaters. After looking online, I think this cardigan may work.

We made homemade pizza tonight for dinner and it was incredible. We made the dough in our breadmaker, mixed up the sauce, and added meat, olives, and cheese. My favorite pizza ever.

We didn't run today -- I was way to full from dinner to even attempt it so we will run in the morning before we go our separate ways.

Back To School, Back to School

Life cereal in case you were wondering. It is a cereal that is both good for you and tastes delicious. Tomorrow I have my first full day of my Nutrition class and I'm pretty excited about it.

Today I worked, Meghan ran errands, and Tillie played. She is always playing.

I don't have a lot to post on but I do have a few links.

Lets explore the internets together...I promise there isn't a RickRoll in here.
