And a happy Friday to all of you! It is pouring! Yep! Pouring rain! Makes ya just want to stay inside and snuggle up! Or...you could sit in the window and watch the grass grow! It will probably be two feet high after this downpour! How are you all today? I would like to offer a heartfelt thank you to those who saw my sense of "despair" yesterday and commented. I am feeling a bit more with it today! Yesterday was just one of those days! Cranky, I guess! I don't often get that way! Even my husband noticed it! I just didn't feel myself!
Tommorrow we have a graduation party to attend. This is a two hour drive away so we will be staying over at my mother in laws. Luckily she doesn't mind us bringing our puppy. It will be a food fest once again. But, I will make do. I wish I didn't have this constant feeling that food was such a threat! I guess after all these years of having to stay away from it makes it all the more interesting!
I have my reservations set for DC. We are going to DC after our White water rafting trip adventure. I asked DVDMON for a bit of help in selecting a location in DC. He was wonderfully cooperative and helped this undecisive woman make up her mind. My two brothers in law have decided to join us on the rafting trip so the boys are thrilled and it should be a good time.
We are probably going to have to Kennel Patriot for the week we are on vacation. I am heartbroken over this. He is just doing so well with us and the potty training and all. Does anyone have any words of wisdom on Kenneling and what to look for, etc. etc. I can't stand the thought of leaving him.
Well, I am off to aerobics class! Today is a fat burner.
Have a good weekend all!

Well, you're no ball of fire today, but you seem something.... "something", Connie? Oh, I don't know.... Kind of a holding pattern or a "being" state. I'm sending a hug to you and this one is a regular ole doozie!!! Aerobics are a good thing...seratonin levels and all that. It's Friday and you know you are a fool for Fridays, so just live it up!!! Seriously? Well, I want you to know that I think it is wonderful that you go ahead and move in the direction of happiness and activity and all of life's blessings. You make a lot of people happy, Girl Friend. But this one has her eyes on you. Whatever it all is, we'll get it, okay? Be good to yourself, Carrie. :)

Hi there dear Carrie
Well how is my friend across the Atlantic REALLY feeling? Glad to hear that you feel better than yesterday but you are still not your usual bouncy self! We ARE going to do it this month, I am going to be dragging you towards that finishing line of the last of the month!!!!
I know what you mean about food at someone elses. We are going to dinner at the inlaws on Sunday and I dread to think what we are going to have, I really have to concentrate on not going off track now knowing that I have no control on Sunday - crazy isn't it!
Take great care of yourself and I'm still thinking of you!!! JANE

On kenneling....ask people you know who have dogs where they board theirs...and if they would really recommend it. I had a wonderful veterinarian once, where I knew the gals in the office would be walking the dog and cooing to her, like she was one of their own. She always came home smelling clean and acting happy. (Some places don't keep the kennel terribly clean, so you'll want to do an inspection of the facilities before you commit to board there.)
Have fun rafting and seeing DC!

Sorry i missed your entry yesterday,i will go read it when i am finished here,,i didn't have a great day yesterday and felt bad that i was unable to get on here and read and comment to everyone,:{ i am better today,and sorry you were feeling well:{
Your trip sounds like so much fun to,,,i know that must be exciting:} about useing a kennel for the pup,,,my daughter use to work at a vet and they keep animals while people go on vacations and my daughter says the animals do great,she would work taking care of feeding and watering and walking them daily and on weekends,,just try to find out where the best vet in your area is,i am lucky,we have great vets here in our area,,very caring,,,well one good thing to think about is,,animals don't have a sense of time,,so a week to you doesn't seem that long to them,,:} if that helps at all.

ummm, mexican chicken. Dice chicken breast and onion and saute in a skillet in one tablespoon of oil and one tablespoon of vinegar. Add a packet of hidden valley ranch mexican fiesta party dip. In another pan boil rice and drain. Add butter or margarine, picante sauce, one can mild red enchillada sauce and one can green chili enchilada sauce. Mix the pan and skillet contents and stir. If you like you can wrap it in a flour tortillia with some grated cheese and it will taste pretty much like a taco mayo wrap. But we just eat it by the bowl full. Kids can est a wash tub full of it. Even my mom overeats and she hardly ever goes back for seconds of anything. Enjoy. Hope you can find a good place to care for the puppy. Just look for one thats very clean. Where dogs are concentrated is where they pick up parvo and kennel cough. Hope he's had all his vaccinations. Best if Kennel owner is also vetrinarian. I think that would be a very good business idea- to have a doggie day care. I wish I had the facility needed. Wjould like to do one with web cams so people could key into the internet site and see what their pets were up to during the day. How they were being treated and getting along. We got a new cat yesterday. She is gorgeous. Wish you had someone you could trust to house and pet sit so he wouldn't have to change his environment.
