so much to say

so, last Monday after Miss Josephine and I did our running workout with Deezel joining us for an extended cool-down, I went over to Kathryn's. After girl-talk and a large piece of vanilla with a cheescake center cake we watched 'Must Love Dogs'. Very good I must say, but then how could you not like John Cusak, I've been a fan of his, well, since forever. I loved Mother Teresa, I think she stole the show, that and the fairy-tale ending...

then on Tuesday, I worked a shorter day than usual, due to Caleb being out of town for the week. He went up to Wooster for the week to work with my Dad and Cy(brother), and for some friend time before starting his new job, today actually. Back to the point though, he's my help when it comes to working and having dogs, meaning he lets them out to potty so I don't have to come home for lunch. So, with him gone, I got home a little early and chilled w/ a good book, waiting for it to cool down, and for Emily and Jack to come over for an evening stroll/walk. I really like Emily, she's awesome, and Jack is too adorable. We had a nice chat, turns out she went to college in my hometown, yea! , she comes from a big family too, and loves sunsets. And she gave me the coolest tins with loose tea, since I love tea...and Tim Horton's coffee, but I drink tea more; black,green, red, white I drink it all.

Wednesday was a blah day for me, My Mom came to the rescue and let the furkids out for a potty break, yet when I got home from work, I felt a little, okay a lot drained. The furkids and I stayed in for the evening...they snoozed and chewed on some bones while I read and did some yoga, I even took a bath. Felt guilty though like always when I don't get them out for their nightly walk-abouts...but not guilty enough to go on one. You need a night off every now and then. Besides I got up early Thursday and went for a short 2mile walk before work, guilt it's a horrible thing, but then again it's horrible not walking your loved ones too.

and Then Pedicure Thursday arrived.

which became Ped/Mani Thursday

I've had acrylic nails before, but this was a first for me with the Ped/Mani, and I loved it. I've held off on getting a Pedicure because I always thought, 'who would want to touch my feet' but overcoming that notion, letting go and allowing myself to be pampered was a little easier than I thought, maybe a little to easy, as I can hardly wait till the next time. And the Manicure, although I threw that in, I don't really have nails (I do tend to bite them), I thought why not, maybe I'll stop biting them and actually grow them If they look to PRETTY to mess with. So far, it's working... and thanks to Susay for again letting the grandfurkids out, saving me gas and time.

Friday, I was up early to get Deezel/Josi out for a walk, knowing that they wouldn't be getting an evening walk. I had plans to hang with Jack, while Emily and Greg went to Dinner/Movie. I got home on the earlier side and relaxed for a minute, making treats to put in the freezer, where my Mom will pull them out of later (yes, she's letting them out while I'm baby-sitting the little tyke) and take all the credit, no wonder my furkids love her...

I got to Emily's and met, Link and Bailey

now, talk about cuteness, Bailey is up front, while Link is chilling on top of the cushion, Kind of hard to see, I know...sorry, I'm sure I'll be posting additional Link/Bailey photos.

Jack and I had a great time, he was very chill and fun to watch. He ate a little bit, took about 1/2 hour nap, ate a little bit more, played peek-a-boo

and accompanied me around the yard while I was kicking the ball for Bailey, which Bailey loves, and I do mean Loves. Then Jack ate a little more,

yes, he's a good little eater, then we took an evening stroll before bedtime, and before I knew it, he was changed/burbed and asleep. I flipped through the 'Real Simple' catalog (which I highly recommend, or you can go to www.realsimple.com too) and then Emily and Greg were home. They had a great time and really liked the Batman movie and I was really glad that they had a nice evening.
There was alot of heat lightning on my way home, I like it, that and storms, especially when they wake you up in the middle of the night. I know some people are scared of storms but I find them relaxing in a way, I know, I know, but then I also like pb and dill pickle sandwiches, eating dinner/lunch food for breakfast, think that spaghetti is better as a leftover, capers on my cheese pizza, salsa on my eggs, and dipping my fries in frosties...who knew?

Saturday was a complete recovery day, lounging arond till noon, going for a short walk with the rottens (too HoT), going tanning (yes, it's bad, but I need some color, yes I do), gave myself a facial, took a bath, started and finished a book, did some yoga, blah, blah, blah...

On Sunday, I took a long walk in the AM before it got too hot with the furkids, did some more yoga, and threw in lunges, push-ups and abs. Then went to lunch at the Easy Street Cafe with Mike, it was really good:) and yummy. I had a Greek Burger with Curly Fries, I am a sucker for seasoned curly fries w/ mustard, no ketchup, only if it's the only thing available.
Caleb got home, yea!
I took a nap on Sunday after lunch and then another long walk with the furkids, of course. I had an english muffin w/ pb (as soon as the muffin is toasted you have to put the pb (Jiff) on so that it can melt) with a huge glass of oj for dinner. Then watered the plants, spent some cuddle time with Deezel/Josi, showered and went to bed...dreading the early morning wake-up alarm.
