Got up, it was tough - just very tired. Just couldn't sleep - Finnegan and Henry decided at 3:00 a.m. to use my head as a diving board onto Mocha and Riley. So at one point, Riley climbed into bed to get away from them, had to put the Kitties out of the bedroom. So finally got up, made some coffee and started cleaning the kitchen. After that, we headed to Lowe's to return a pump and then got a bunch of Water Plants for the pond. They were on sale big time so got a lot. After that, headed home and worked on that. I reseeded the lawn where the fertilizer burned the grass and was watering the yard. After that, Mark came over and we had margaritas and hung out in the backyard. Came inside and took a nap for a bit then we had to get ready for Steve's party. Mark and John picked us up and we got there around 7:00 pm, we hung out with Steve, Pete, Jack, Mike, Ron and Joe. Had a lot of fun, fun to people watch. We hung out there till about 10:00 pm then went up to Pronto, hung out there for about 1 1/2 hours. Had a lot of fun, got to know Mike, good guy and met up with Tania and her new friend. It was a nice evening but real tired so ended up getting a ride home with Mike.

It's almost July - wow, this year is flying by. So it's Friday, got up this morning and did some more cleaning, the house gets so messy so quickly with 2 dogs, 2 cats and Kurt. Got up and fed the animals, got coffee going, then headed out the door. Did cardio for about 45 minutes - watching Ms. Potter while doing that. It's a cute movie so far - about Beatrix Potter (Childrens Book author). Today should be quite uneventful at work, have to go through some old reports and clean them up. Tonight we are going over to Todd's for a Birthday BBQ. I need to make a cake when I get home from work and a pasta dish.... So came home, baked a brownie/mousse dessert then made two pasta dishes. Wrapped Todd's gift and then started watering outside. After that, Kurt got home - we hung out for a bit then headed over to Todd's house. Had a great time, it was Todd, Jack, Mark, John, Dawn, Joel & his nephew Ian plus us. It was a lot of fun just hanging out with everyone and I had a great time playing with Ian. I took him for a walk and we had to touch every tree and sign, then we threw pine cones and he told me every color of flower he saw. We hung out till about midnight, it was a very nice evening - Todd cooked a really good BBQ and then he opened gifts. We got him one of those digital picture frames with a remote control. I think he liked it. After that, we went home and pretty much crashed. I was exhausted.

Thursday, 28 June 2007

Thursday! Almost the weekend. Got up, groggy - ugh. Had to drop off movies on the way to the gym. Did cardio and jump rope. Got a lot of energy from that. Work was really good - completed some reports that I was having issues with (It's about time). Afternoon was good, Gym(back workout), then finished the day with some little requests. I have fallen in love with the group Marsheaux (Greek Female Group), there music is really good - so listening to them all day long. After work, came home (got home in 14 minutes), fed the animals, then started cleaning up - the cats got a little crazy and had fun in the plants, so had to clean that up, folded clothes and put in a new load of laundry, vacuumed, and cleaned the bathrooms. I then cut the front yard - everything is so dry, eventhough we have the sprinkler system going everyday. I put too much fertilizer down last week and it fried the yard - I'm hoping it comes back, I have about 4 spots that look really brown. Anyway, cut the grass and watered again. Then got cleaned up, took Kurt out to dinner and then we hung out and played some pool. I beat him both games, then played Mark - won one, lost one, then played Deona and lost to her - but it was close). It was a nice night but I was happy to go home and go to bed.

Wednesday, 27 June 2007

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TODD! It's Wednesday already. Woo Hoo. Excited about that - today should fly by quickly. So got up and went to the gym, I wanted to just stay and sleep but I got up and did my cardio. Work was okay, have some issue at work with a report - dealt with that. At lunch, ran into a bunch of people at the gym - it was cool to see everyone. Work was okay, got through the day. It's storming right now, finally - some rain. Everything is so dry. So got home, fed the farm and then folded clothes, put away dishes, cleaned the kitty liter - stuff like that. Kurt got home and made dinne, it was really good, a fettucini with brocolli and chicken/apple sausage. After dinner, we headed to Target to get a few things then headed home. I was lazy and stayed in bed while Kurt took Riley for a walk. I did trim all of the animals paws. So the week is almost over. :)

Tuesday, 26 June 2007

It's Tuesday - the day went by really fast. Got to the gym and felt pretty good, no coffee though - that was tough. The pot overflowed with grounds in the basket so didn't get a single cup this morning. Drank some water and that got my through my cardio. Work was kind of slow today, had some issues with my machine that I had to take care of. Gym at lunch, did arms. They are sore now. The afternoon was really quick. I was suppose to give blood in the afternoon but when I got there, it was a hour and 20 minute wait. So I ended up not going and donated at the local blood bank by our house. I did go to the bank and Costco on the way home. Spent a lot of money on nothing... Cat food, dog biscuits, wet cat food, cleaning supplie, garbage bags, and a few things for dinner stuff. After that, came home and cleaned up, took out the garbage, watered everything (it's been so dry out lately) After that, I started dinner - I made Sweet and Sour chicken, it was really good. We finished up dinner, I cleaned up after that and then we went to see Bonnie play her softball game. That was fun, spending time with Bonnie and Michelle. After that, we went out for a soda and chatted with them. Then it was time for bed, I was exhausted. (OLD PIC)

Monday, 24 June 2007

Monday - Back to work. I'm not sure what it is but I have no energy anymore. None at all. Got up and went to the gym, I'm okay up to that but once I get to work - I'm seriously ready to fall asleep. I think I need to win the lottery. So did a good cardio and then got to work. The day was good, busy - really didn't even think much about anything else except my reports. Got a lot accomplished today - happy about that. So at lunch, did a chest workout - now I'm sore. From all the lifting over the weekend (chairs/tables) I hurt my back and I think I stressed it out a bit again. After the gym, ate lunch then finished my day. Came home, fed everyone then filled up the pond. It looks great, Kurt got it all working and no leaks. After that, watered all the plants/flowers then headed inside. Chilled out a bit before meeting up with Todd for dinner. Had a really nice time, we chatted and caught up with everything. It was fun. We then played some pool - after that, we ran into John Davis, Travis, Seth, Shanron and Kurt. I also ran into Karen Shaw, that was a big surprise. It was a really nice evening, came home and played with the dogs/cats and got ready for Tuesday. Back to my cycle.

Sunday, 24 June 2007

Ugh, I had such a bad headache. I think it's from mixing wine and Sangria and vodka plus I really didn't eat so that probably has a lot to do with it. Got up around 8:00 am and cleaned up outside. It took a couple of hours but had everything put away and cleaned up, you couldn't even tell we had almost 40 people over the day before. So after cleaning up, went inside and layed down for a bit - hoping my headache would go away, unfortunately it lasted most of the day. Kurt went up to Home Depot to get a few things, I stayed in with the kittens and watched a movie. After that movie, I had some cereal and then decided to get up. I installed the spot lights for the fountain and did a few other things, Kurt got the pond fixed and it looks so great, really happy about it. Next project is the privacy fence and then it will be perfect. So after getting cleaned up, we headed over to Mark and John's place and had a BBQ. It was really nice, had a great time but still the hang over was tough. We left around 7:00 pm, and went home - got stuff ready for Monday. I was in bed by a little after 8:00 pm and asleep by 8:45. I was pretty tired.

Saturday, 23 June 2007

What a day. We got up early and started getting ready for the party. I worked on setting up the outside while Kurt cleaned the entire house. We worked on setting up/cleaning for about 4 hours. The house looked great and the yard was looking really good. Had an issue with the waterfall so I went to Home Depot and got some mulch and some other things for the yard, some new Solar lights and flood lights for the fountain. Kurt worked on fixing the leak and I got the mulch spread around the pond and put up the new lights. I then picked up the food from Pronto! and by the time I got home - we had to get cleaned up. So by then people started showing up, it was a lot of fun - I had a great time and I think eveyrone else did too. The party went from 6:00 pm to about midnight, which was perfect - by then we were a little exhausted. So cleaned up a bit and then went to bed.

Friday, 22 June 2007

It's Friday. So glad it's the weekend. Got up, ugh - it was tough. Up later than expected so not much sleep. Did my cardio in the morning then got to work. Busy day for me so it went by quickly. But at one point, I was so tired that I almost fell asleep at my desk. It was tough staying awake but then got my second wind and the rest of the day was good. At lunch, went and bought wine for the party and party supplies (table cloths, napkins, plates, etc) then back to work. I had to go to HQ so I left around 2:00 (late for my meeting), so ended up doing a call in to the meeting and then doing some work at HQ on a server. After work, came home and rolled silverwear and got some things ready for the party. I had a haircut appointment at 5 so did that then came home. We had dinner plans with Mark, John, Jack, Pete, Randy, John, Jack and Todd at Comos. We hung out for a bit but didn't go out to late so we could get some sleep for tomorrow. It was a fun day.

Thursday, 21 June 2007

Summer is here. It has finally arrived and the weather has been just beautiful lately. Sunny and warm - but we are in need or rain. So today was really nice - got up and felt refreshed from a good nights sleep. Got to the gym and did a new cardio workout - 30 minutes eliptical, 20 minutes of abs then 30 minutes of the glider. Supposedly breaking up the cardio like that has better results. So then got to work, it was a good day - got a lot done. Working on some new projects, unfortunately one report that I need to get done - I'm having issues with. Hopefully find the answers I need. Lunch time, I went back to the gym and did shoulders, it was an okay workout. Finished my day and then got home. Lots of traffic, ugh - got home, fed the dogs, cats and then did some work outside on the plants/flowers. Kurt got home and we ended up having dinner, something light then went out and met up with Mark and John. We had a great time, so much fun, played pool and ran into a ton of people we haven't seen in a long time. We stayed out later than expected. It was such a great day.

Wednesday, 20 June 2007

What a nice day it's been so far. Got up, a little late but still got to the gym - good cardio in this morning. Finally got my Bally membership taking care of - issue with it had my old credit card info on account. So after getting to work, the day was really busy. Had a bunch of reports to update - took care of that but took me most of the day. At lunch, went to the gym and did arms. Ran into Johnny there. Worked on BBQ stuff for a bit, hopefully I will have everything set up way before so it won't be stressful on Saturday. After work, headed home and fed the happy animals - Henry is so loving, he comes running up to me everyday and starts to purr immediately. So fed them then headed to the Landscaping supply store and bought some more rocks for the waterfall. Got home and had to level out one side (it was lower than the rest). Did that, got dirty again - then started filling up the pond, after that got cleaned up and we went out to dinner. I ate bad, had chicken finger dinner - good but bad for me. After dinner, came home and had some web stuff to do. An old client wants me to do some work so started on that. Big day tomorrow - more details later. Mocha is still limping a bit (she is getting old and can't run like she use to) So I've been not taking her on runs and she is upset about that. Later in the evening, I watched a little TV and tried falling asleep. Ugh, too much caffeine at dinner. Up several times during the evening, Mocha crawled into bed at one point and was snoring real loud. Riley was laying on all the pillows I had piled up on the side of the bed, his face was level with mine. He cracks me up. PS - Kathy Griffin was hilarious last night on the D-List.

Tuesday, 19 June 2007

So far so good today. Got up and had to drop off some movies before going to the gym. Got a great cardio and jump rope workout in this morning. Work was good, I did remember shoes today :) At lunch time, went to the grocery store to pick up some more fresh fruit and yogurt. The afternoon has been dragging but get to go home soon. Tonight we are having dinner with Melayna, looking forward to seeing her. So got home and fed all the kids, then let out the dogs, took out the garbage, cleaned up, got stuff ready for Wednesday. By then, Kurt got home - we realxed for a bit and then headed out to pick up Melayna. Her new house is so cute, we got a tour and so Mr. Peepers (Her cat) then went to the Emory for dinner. Everything was really good, I ate too much. After dinner, dropped off Melayna, got some gas then headed home. Gas is so expensive again. Anyway, got home - played with all the animals then fertilized the front and back yard, cleaned up some bird messes on the front of the house then headed inside. Watched South Park and fell asleep.

Monday, 18 June 2007

New Week Begins, It was a good productive weekend so I feel good. Started Monday off well, got to the gym and did a really good cardio, after that got to the office and had a lot to do so the morning flew by. Well, I did forget to pack my shoes for work so I wore gym shoes all morning. At lunch time, ran to the store and got a new pair of shoes then went to the gym. Good ab workout. Back to the office, ordered food for our BBQ party this weekend, we are catering it rather than cook it ourselves. Too much work and we never get to enjoy ourselves. So took care of that and had a few errands to take care of after work. Came home, fed the zoo and happily, Riley was not sick when I got home. So fed them, let the dogs outside then worked on the pond for a bit, I want to reconfigure it a bit. Kurt made dinner, it was really good so we ate and relaxed for a few minutes before going grocery shopping. Finished that and got everything ready for Tuesday. I was pretty tired so I watched a little TV with the dogs and fell asleep.

Sunday, 17 June 2007

Ugh, So tired - got up and fed the cats and dogs. Riley didn't get sick for a few hours so hopefully he is better. After that, made coffee and French Toast for us. It was pretty good. After breakfast - we both started on projects we have been working on. Can't wait for the projects to be over (They are never over). We were outside from 8:30 a.m. till about 6:00 pm only stopping for about 20 minutes for lunch. We are both really sunburned and sore but it was a very accomplishing day. I was able to cut the grass in the front yard and put down some fertilizer. Riley ended up getting sick one more time, I hope he is okay - if he is still getting sick by tomorrow then I'm taking him to the vet. The cats have been hilarious all day, they have learned how to open up the dog bowl and then climb into it eating Mocha and Riley's food. Silly cats. Kurt picked up Chinese food for dinner, so we ate that and then relaxed for a bit. I was so tired, I fell asleep right after that Simpsons. It was a really good weekend.

Saturday, 16 June 2007

What a fun day. We got up and went to Home Depot. I got a bunch of plants/flowers for the pond. So started working on planting then got cleaned up and we headed over to see my dad. Kurt, Mom, Dad, Hudson and I went out to lunch and celebrated Father's day a little early. After lunch, Kurt and I went out for some dessert then headed over to Erika and Andrea's house. We hung out with them, plus Erika's nephew/niece and brother. What a fun time, we were in the pool for a while - got a little sunburned. After that, came home and got cleaned up - we then headed out to Tom Anderson's house. There were a bunch of people there meeting up and having a cocktail before heading out to Paula's party. What a fun time. We had a great time. Really nice party and so many people there. Around 12:30, Tom, Alan, Kurt and I went over to Pronto and hung out there for a while with Brian, Jim D., Kim Tabor, Todd, Brian, and Matt. What a fun night, after that - dropped off Alan and Tom and headed home. Not a fun surprise when we got home, Riley was really sick and got sick all over the house. So took a while and cleaned up, poor Riley. He was getting up every couple of hours to get sick so I was up with him. Ended up only sleeping for a couple of hours.

Friday, 15 June 2007

It's the weekend. Got up late and decided to skip the gym in the morning. Got to work and it was a very busy day - working on a web site all morning. At lunch - went to the gym and did an hour of cardio, my foot finally feels better and I was able to do jump rope afterwards. The rest of the day was good - it was busy but good. After work, came home and took care of the pets then cleaned up for a while. So much animal hair - so vacuumed and dusted, did some laundry and by then - Kurt got home. We both worked on outdoor stuff, I cut the grass and edged / trimmed, Kurt worked on the pond again, still leaking - hopefully he can get that fixed. After that, got cleaned up and headed up to Pronto to meet up with Mark and John and Dawn. Had a really nice night, we hung for a while - saw Pete, Joel, Steve Lovette, Ron, and a bunch of other people there. We left pretty early because we were tired, home in bed by 11:30.

Thursday, 14 June 2007

Thursday.... work was good, gym was good - got everything that I needed to get done. I did watch Jesus is Magic (Sarah Silverman) while at the gym and it was hilarious. I have seen it several times but it makes me laugh every time. After work, came home and worked more on the pond. It's getting there. The picture is of the pond, I embellished it a bit by adding the fence (we are going to get the privacy fence installed soon, in August and added some bushes. So worked on that for a few hours then we went out to dinner with Mark and John. We were at Como's - Todd joined us. Had a good evening, after dinner went home and watched a little TV. Played with the cats and dogs, we have such a full house now but I like it a lot. The animals are great. I was exhausted so fell asleep pretty early, looking forward to the weekend.

Wednesday, 13 June 2007

Got up and raring to go. Got to the gym and did cardio plus half of a back workout. My stomach is a little sore from yesterday's workout. So finished working out and got to work. Busy day, the day flew by - I didn't end up going to the gym at lunch time because I was working on a report and didn't notice the time. I did have to leave for a little bit to get my iPod fixed. They reformatted it at the store and I was out of there within 15 minutes. After work, got home and started moving rocks. I had 3,000 lbs. of Michigan Grey Stone delivered for the pond. So moved all of that around the pond. It looks good. Now, I just need to plant some flowers/plants and get the fish. After that, watered the plants/flowers outside then came in and made dinner. Kurt got home and worked on the waterfall for a bit, it's absorbing too much water which is not good. After that, got stuff ready for Thursday, then I worked on the loading of my iPod while Kurt got us some ice cream. The cats and dogs were all very cute, Mocha is not afraid of the cats and they aren't afraid of her but Riley is so afraid of them. Sad and funny. I was pretty tired and sore from moving all of the rocks myself so I fell asleep pretty quickly. I did watch the Last Comic Standing which was embarrassing and funny.

Tuesday, 12 June 2007

Got up this morning and my foot is still killing me. I'm calling my doctor today, hopefully it's nothing more than a muscle thing. Anyway, got up and fed the animals, let out the dogs, made the bed, did the dishes, got all of the animals put away and then headed out. I did Abs at the gym today, my foot was just too sore to try and do cardio. Got over 1600 sit ups. Starting some new projects today, that should keep me busy for a while. Talked to Kurt, he is packing up and will be heading to the airport soon. He should be getting home around 6:00 pm today. I'm happy he is coming home soon. Picked up dinner on the way home, Gazpacho and Salad for when Kurt gets home. So got home and one of the cats got sick in the bed, ugh - had to pull everything off the bed and wash it all. Not fun. So frustrated. Kurt got home and unpacked, we ate dinner and hung out for a while. Both of us were tired so stayed in and watched some TV.

Monday, 11 June 2007

So tired this morning, may need to drink coffee at work. Got up and did my routine, then went to the gym. Did cardio this morning but no jump rope. Hoping my foot will heal soon. Work was really good, finally got this huge report completed - ugh, it was a pain and lots of difficult code but it's working now and the client is happy. So work flew by, at lunch - I did an arm workout and then came back to the office and ate my lunch. I ate too much. Kurt packs a much healthier and more proportioned sized meal. I ate too much and then became tired. After work, came home and cared for the pets. The cats were sleeping in the plants in the front window when I got home. Fed them all then played with the kittens for a bit. After that, headed out to Home Depot and got one last load of cement bricks. Came home and unloaded them, built up the area around the filter and finished moving all of the dirt around the pond. So much dirt. Now, I need to get the Sandstone ordered to put around the pond, get some plants, fill up the pond and then the fish. The hardest part is the sandstone, a ton of stones are being delivered and I have to carry them all out back and place then all around the pond. After that, it's the fun stuff... Planting and getting the fish. The stone shouldn't be that bad. Hopefully this weekend I can get that all done. After that, showered and then ate some dinner. I was tired so laid in bed and fell asleep pretty early.

Sunday, 10 June 2007

Got up and fed the animals, they were all ready to eat. Had some coffee and breakfast. Then got dressed and headed to the gym. Worked out, did Shoulders and some jump rope. My left foot is killing me but worked through it. After the gym, went to Home Depot. Bought cement blocks for the Coi pond. Worked on that all afternoon, made a couple of trips to the Home Depot for those blocks. After getting them home, I put them all around the pond then back filled the dirt around it for the plant/flower beds. I worked on that for about 3 1/2 hours. After that, showered and then went grocery shopping. Bought stuff for lunch and dinner. Came home, fed the animals again, made dinner. I made enough for lunch for Monday. After that, got bag packed for tomorrow, set up the coffee, got clothes out then ate dinner while watching The Simpsons. After that, I watched the Sopranos finale. Not very good, disappointing to say the least. Then fell asleep.

Saturday, 9 June 2007

Not a very good night sleep last night, didn't go to bed until very late and then with the animals running around I just decided to get up at 7:00 am. Fed all the pets and then picked up dog messes outside, clean the liter box, worked on the canopy (water keeps accumulating in the sides) then made coffee. I drank some coffee and watched a little TV with Finnegan and Henry. They were all wound up and were wrestling. It was funny to watch. I ate a blueberry muffin (it was so good) and then got cleaned up. It was Kayla's graduation party today, Kurt is flying out so we couldn't go for a long time but we wanted to stop off and drop off her gift. So we did that then headed back home. Kurt headed out for Washington D.C. - his flight was at 3 but had to be on the road by 12:45. So my day was filled with watching movies, I returned and picked up some new movies at Blockbuster. I saw Norbit - it was okay, dumb but funny. I saw Hostel 2 (gross) and Bugs (it was just kind of dumb, nothing more to saw about that movie). In the evening, Joel picked me up and we went out for um, about 30 minutes. He wanted to go to a party and I wasn't up for that so I just came home. I was in bed and probably asleep by 11:00 pm.

Friday, 8 June 2007

Slept pretty good except for Mocha hurt herself in the middle of the night, not sure what happened but she gave out a big yelp. So woke up and made sure she was okay, everything seemed to be fine - she may of had a nightmare or maybe Riley rolled on to her. Finnegan was a little terror this morning, but he is so cute that you can't be made at him. Got up and fed them and then had some coffee before heading out to the gym. Kurt picks up Henry today. :) He is really cute. Kurt said that Henry and Finnegan started playing immediately once he got home. Finnegan though, wanted to make sure that Henry knew that he can't go near his food dish - so funny. So got to work and started on a report, of course there are issues with it but I need to get it working properly. Tonight should be fun, we got invited to a barbecue so going to that then going out afterwards. I'm looking forward to relaxing this weekend with all the pets, Kurt is out of town. I have a bunch of yard work to do so that should keep me occupied plus I have a graduation to go to.

Thursday, 7 June 2007

It's Thursday already. The week is just flying by. This morning, I did cardio and it was okay didn't push myself hard enough. Work was great today, it was one of those days that I had so much to do that I never had a chance to even look at my email. Lunch, worked out - it was a good back workout, feel pretty good about it. The afternoon was busy as well, I didn't even have time to go the bathroom I was so busy. So it's official - we are getting another cat. There were several other kittens in the litter that were going to be put down so we decided to get Finnegan's brother. His name is Henry. We pick him up tomorrow. So after work, folded clothes and put away the dishes then took Finnegan to the vet. He was not very happy about it. Got his first set of shots and checked for Feline Leukemia, he got a clean bill of health. He had ear mites but they cleaned them out and gave him a treatment that should take care of it for good. After the vet, came home and we went over to Mark and John's house, had a glass of wine and chatted for a bit. Then we went to dinner, we ate at Pronto! and then hung out with Jack and Pete, Ron, Calvin, Chris, Joel, Tania, James, Tom, Cory and a bunch of others. We stayed out till about 11:00 then went home. I'm going to

Wednesday, 6 June 2007

Got up and was a little tired but not too bad. I slept good, just woke up a couple times when a little kitten kept running up my side and jumping onto the covers. I had to put him in the bathroom for a little time out. Besides that, great night sleep - went to the gym, it was an okay workout. I did 55 minutes of cardio and at lunch I workout my chest. After lunch, I ran to Target and got a new jump rope so now both Kurt and I have one for our gym bags. The rest of the day at work was good - I finished a few loose ends on a report and it went into production. After work, came home (bad traffic day) and fed the animals. Then cleaned up a bit, Kurt is making dinner today so I get to relax for a little bit. I watched TV with the dogs while Finnegan ran around the house (So much energy). Kurt came home and made dinner, it was really good and healthy too - we had chicken and broccoli. After dinner, took the dogs roller blading and they were exhausted after that. Got everything ready for Thursday then chilled out for the rest of the evening. .

Tuesday, 5 June 2007

I had a User conference for the Reporting Software I work with so most of the day was spent at that, except for the morning when I had a server fail. Issue was with the security update that was made. Such a hassle. The conference was good, learned about the new version of Actuate. I might be going to the big conference in Vegas in August. Had a great time two years ago - hopefully can go again. After work, played with Mocha and Riley then played with Finnegan. They are all such good pets. Folded clothes and put everything away, Kurt has a Haircut appointment and is picking up take out so looking forward to dinner. We ate, so yummy and healthy too. After dinner, I cut the grass both front and back. The yard looks really good right now. :) Then took out the garbage for trash day. After that, relaxed a bit before going to bed.

Monday, 4 June 2007

It's Monday again, back to the grind. Work was really good today, got up in a good mood - got the gym early and had a really good cardio workout, been incorporating jumping rope into my routine and that really helps to get my heart going. So work - very good, I had to work on several reports and there is one that has been taking a really long time to do - got some support and got the report working. After work, I came home - feed the animals, Finnegan is so funny. He's not afraid of the dogs anymore, actually Riley is afraid of him. Mocha is starting to play with him, she chases him around the house. So feed them, then had some errands to take care of (grocery shopping and stuff like that). Did some laundry and then came home to make dinner. Nothing major. After that, we went for a walk with the dogs, Mocha is starting to loose some weight, she is about 20 lbs over-weight. I think she has lost 3 or 4 lbs. so far since she has been on her diet. We are trying to take them out for walks everyday and that helps. After that, watched a little TV then fell asleep.

Sunday, 3 June 2007

It's already Sunday. Woke up and it's a rainy dreary day but that's okay - it will still be a nice day. Didn't get much sleep with Finnegan wanting to play, he cracks me up - such a sweet cat and I think he is getting use to the house, the dogs and us. Made some coffee and was working on some computer stuff, fed the dogs and straightened up a bit then Bonnie, Michelle, Joel, Kurt and I went out to dinner at Nello's. It was so good, I had the best thing ever - a grilled Blue Berry Muffin. It was delicious. After breakfast, we came back to the house and hung out for a bit. My cousin Tracy, Casandra, her husband Don and their baby Don Jr. were in town and stopped over for a visit. OMG! Their little boy is so cute, it was really great seeing them and seeing the baby. After they left, we headed out for the Festival in Ferndale. Even though it rained, it was really fun - we had a good time. Hung out till about 5:00 pm, then it was time to head home and get some dinner. I made dinner and after we ate, I pretty much fell asleep for a bit. Got up and got stuff ready for Monday then watched The Sopranos. After that, I was out for the night.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KURT! Got up and fed the animals, then made some coffee and breakfast for Kurt. It was good, made breakfast sandwiches. Finnegan wanted to play so played with him for a while then played with the dogs and took them for a walk. After that, we got cleaned up and headed out for a bit. Went shopping for some Dog Treats and Cat stuff, then grabbed some lunch at this awesome Mexican place. After that, took Kurt to see the movie "Knocked Up" - it was really good, very cute movie. After the movie, came home and relaxed for a little bit, fed the animals and then got changed before Mark & John and Bonnie & Michelle showed up. We all then went to Oak City Grille for dinner. Todd & Jack, Chris & Todd, and Joel all joined us for dinner. It was really nice, had a great time at dinner - after that, we headed over to Pronto for a bit. Hung out there for a while, that was really fun. Had a really nice night, I was feeling tired and had Joel's car so I left around midnight. Other people had left a little before that and the rest stayed on for a while. Got home and took care of the animals then I pretty much fell asleep. It was a very nice night. Hope Kurt enjoyed his birthday.

FRIDAY and it's JUNE already. Stayed home sick today, horrible sinus infection / headache and my blood sugar was really fluctuating so not feeling the best from that. Went back to bed, and slept in pretty late. After getting up, took some more sinus pills and had some breakfast. Went back to bed again and tried sleeping until my headache went away. Around 2:00 pm, the headache was about gone but still had an issue with my sinuses. Took some of my old Sinus medication and that seemed to help. By 4:30, I was up finally and went outside - played with the dogs and Finnegan. Fed the animals, then took them for a walk. (Just the dogs). Finnegan is so sweet, really cute kitten. Kurt came home and he played with the kitten for a while, then got dressed to go meet up with Mark and John. We walked over to Como's for Pizza. We hung out with Jack and Pete, Steve Z., Joe and we say Joe, Jason and Todd there too. After that, we headed over to Pronto. Played Steve in Pool, beat him in all three games :) then played Mark and beat him as well. After that, hung out for a little bit longer, didn't want to stay out too late. So came home, Steve Z. came over to see the waterfall and how the coi pond looks so far. After that, pretty much went to bed - I was tired. Didn't sleep too well since I slept all day plus Finnegan was running around exploring everything in the house.
