BAD DOGGIES!!

We have been doing so much better about putting the trash up on the counter before we leave or go to bed. Last night for some strange "full moon" reason, the trash was not put away. So, we walked out this morning to the kitchen and family room to a wonderful mess...

Unfortuneately there was raw meat in the trash. That is always a winner to help the dogs use the #3 potty in the house. Today I wish I had an extra crate. *sigh*

Our family room carpet is ruined! I am going to have to go over to service master today to pick up the necessary spray that I have ran out of three times in the past three years and try to get this up myself. Or, spend over $100.00 to have it cleaned. Stains previously cleaned professionally actually have come to the surface after time.

Two options.

1- Purchase doggy proof trash can ($109.00) + Shipping (?)

2- Purchase doggy gate that extends 6 feet long. ($100.00)

I think both options are options!

Crazzzzzzy!!!

Ok, so we have been back for one week and going on our second from all the excitement of our trip. It's non-stop! I guess when you pray for God to bring success and blessings, we sometimes do not realize the toiling of the ground that must happen first! HA!
We are preparing for school to begin on the 25th. Although, Brandy's summer vacation is officially over as of August 4th. She has been going to Marching Band Camp every day from 8-5. Wednesday last week however she was at school from 8:15 AM until 9 PM due to Freshies camp (invitation for all freshman) and registration PLUS they couldn't break from Marching Band camp! SHEEEEEEEESH... Poor girl is going to be exhausted! Then again, she is young and vibrant and full of energy, maybe I am the one who is exhausted just watching her! LOL ..
But seriously, Greg and I are EXTREMELY happy for her, and just being able to sit back and watch God move in her life is beyond anything you can imagine for a parent.
We have two weeks to prepare for school as of today. We already have all of Jeremy's school supplies. Wal-Mart provides lists of school supplies for all the school's in this district. So the only thing left I have to do is purchase some school clothes. I am so glad we went through his room when we did, because now I have a count of what he will need without having to go over the budget! Sometimes being prepared is wisdom! Wait! NO- being prepared ALL the time is wisdom LOL --

randy wont know what she will need exactly until the first day of school. Her newsletter states for student's to bring a notebook to class to note the things they will need for the school year. Also, I will need to take her shopping for clothes as well. She has outgrown about 75% of her clothes.

My objective today is to schedule appointments.
Brandy needs eye exam and glasses. She also injured her knee, and it is still swollen. So I am going to bring her to my orthopedic.
Jeremy needs one more appointment to see Dr. Young as he changed his medication dose.
Greg also hurt his knee a couple weeks ago and says it really has been hurting. He will also go see my orthopedic.
I am scheduled next week to go for my check up with my hip, so I hope that they can just see us all three in a row. We can only hope!
Speaking of which, I am ending here. Will write more later!

My dad told Greg he could take the motorcycle out any time while we were there. So, Greg took me for a ride and it was way cool! Then it was Brandy's turn! She liked it as well!
Ashley came over!! Man! She is growing up SO fast! She actually is driving now! It was soooo nice to get to see her, even if it was for a couple hours.
