I got a handcramp near the end otherwise it would have been a little higher. 
On my way home I was amazed at how much flooding there was. The water was passed the curb in some spots. Just 2 blocks from my house there was a tree laying across the street. I found out later that the storm caused a bit more damage in the neighborhood. I was so distracted by the tree in the street that I didn’t even notice the tree laying on top of Bonnie’s truck.
Once I got home and unloaded my Walmart loot (and got a second dose of drenched from the pool of water just before my front porch) , I went downstairs to start my laundry so I could get all my stuff packed & loaded in the truck in the evening. That way, all I’d need to do after work today is load the doggies in the truck & get headin’ to BF’s for the weekend. Well, Mother Nature had another plan for me. The short & sudden downpour caused my basement to have a minor flood. Some old blankets, sheets, rugs, on my basement floor got drenched… but at least they stopped the water from spreading too far. Unfortunately, those 5 loads of laundry took priority over my clothes so they wouldn’t start to mildew.
I ended up getting up at 6 a.m. so I could finish my laundry. My clothes still aren’t packed and I have 3 doggies that need baths when I get home from work (I refrained giving them baths last night because I wanted them to be nice & fresh & clean and the humidity from last night and today would make them little stink bugs again). So much for getting to BF’s early today. :(

Anyway, I find it funny that all three of them got on me for it and none of them have succeeded in getting me to eat the skin on a regular basis. I know the skins are good for me & blah, blah, blah. I just can’t eat ‘em. Every now & then I’ll give in & try it but the same thing happens… as soon as I take a bite of the skin, I wanna hurl.
What’s funny is I will eat the skins from a baby red potato and I’ll also order Potato Skins as an appetizer. But, I absolutely will not eat the skin from a baked potato (nor do I like them in my mashed potatoes, unless its from a baby red).
]]>Also… He rocks because a few weeks back he was awesome enough to watch the boys an extra 4 nights while I helped BF get back on his feet after surgery.
He’s super awesome.
I hope by the end of the week I’ll be able to get a pic of her with one of the boys. She’s still too active for them so they don’t like to be by her for more than 30 seconds.

The first time I saw this sign was when I was 16ish. I was visiting Bonnie and decided to take the back roads to go see Jeanne… that’s when I spotted this beaut. I laughed for the next 5 minutes and never forgot about it.
About 3 years ago I went looking for the sign so I could take a picture and send it to someone that lives in California because he was looking for deer crossing signs but it was gone. Perhaps the victim of a snowplow.
Anyway, a few days ago I told someone that lives in DC about the sign after I made a joke about “cow tipping”. This morning I decided drive out at lunch to check if the sign was there and much to my giggling delight, it was!

My final game last night I got a ton of kills like this. Finally after about 5 minutes, the chick from the other team thought she was going to sneak up on me. She comes around the corner and yells, “What’s up, bitch?!” and starts shooting me. So I do my shoot/punch thing and kill her and say, “Nothing, bitch!” then turned around and fight it out with her teammate who thought it was fun to yell “GIMME A BREAK!” the one time he killed me (which made it all the more sweet the 3x I killed him). When I finally died, I tell my team that the chick on the other team called me a bitch so I called her one back and had a feeling their team was out to get me. I was right… they started coming at me in groups of 3.
At that point I was pretty irritated because I never talk smack while I’m playing because the very high majority of the people I play against are way better than I am. I just kept my mouth shut and didn’t change the way I played (except for the fact that I told my team to “get ‘em"). I ended up having one of my best games! 
Afterward I happened to look at my “rep” and saw I have my only negative review. WTFevah… Sheesh. Don’t dish it out if you can’t take it.
This is Freya’s first encounter with her Squeak. I missed the first 10 seconds of her playing with it and, of course, that was the first time she made it squeak. She absolutely loves this toy!
Her favorite thing to do is squeak the hell out of it while Dave is sleeping. One day I told her, “Shh! You can’t play with Squeak right now. David is sleeping.” So what does she do? Looked at me, bat it 3 times with her paw to make is squeak extra loud then walked away from it.
(The video was so much better with sound but Dave was on the phone. The glove on the floor is used for our play time. She’s learning that it is only okay if she bites the glove.)
*sniff* My baby girl is so little here. :(
I also have a video from this past weekend of her dragging Reggie around the living room by his tail because he wouldn’t play with her. It was quite comical. Reggie even tolerated it for about a minute. She just loves the boys but they want nothing to do with her. I limit their time together right now because they teamed up on her once when all three dogs made it to the front door before we did. I caught them just before they attacked. Fortunately, she still loves them and will take a nap next to their houses just so she can be close. I do have to admit, all 3 of them are getting better around each other but the tolerance level of my boys is still pretty low.

This is the second MomTrick that Boyfriend saw Freya picked up. The first one we noticed was when we were visiting the other puppies on Tuesday. He brought Midnight a couple steak treats. Freya just happened to snag one and took off running to the corner of the house. She immediately started digging a little hole, dropped the bit of steak, and covered it up. It was in the exact same spot where Midnight hid a piece of pizza using the same method on Saturday. That’s the only time Freya did any sort of digging… and at least she had a purpose and was good enough to cover the hole back up!
