Time to Catch Up!

What have we been up to in June?

Emma caught a bird. Now she is confident that she can catch anything. Thank goodness for her gentle lead although sometimes I swear it doesn't make a difference. I brushed her again today- that pesky undercoat is desperately trying to come out so I did the best I could to help it- great for the allergies (insert sarcastic tone). She has a small obsession with letting her hair grow so she tries to catch it all & eat it. After the brushing, I brushed her teeth. Turns out she doesn't like it very much :o) I also did Token's teeth. She also did not like it much but it worked a little easier as she weighs less than 10lbs. The animals will not come near me right now.

I have been on a book reading frenzy lately. I just finished the 4 Odd Thomas books by Dean Koontz- very good. I am on book 5 in the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency Series by Alexander McCall Smith. They are really good books, usually a slow start but a great story once you get into it.

I love almost free cable. With On Demand, there is always something on- if the tv shows & free movies aren't enough, there are shows on from way back when (Party of Five, the early Facts of Life, and I think even Silver Spoons). Plus the DVR is awesome!

I took a sick day Friday. I got the same stuff that I had in January but not quite as bad. That time I lost my voice & I was sick for a few weeks. I am hoping to be better by Monday. Cory has it now but he seems to be feeling a little better today.

I have quit biting my nails. I know they say that it takes 6 weeks to start/stop a habit but I feel pretty confident that I am over it.

I really do not understand why they have to put "Do Not Attempt" on the commercial where Quiznos is making fun of Subway & the person eats the $5 bill.

We got a new camera so I will be putting up some more pictures soon. In addition to adding new pictures from the camera, I have been putting the pictures back on from the cds from the whole "issue" with the computer. It has been a lot of fun to look at some of the older ones.

I think the Benadryl I took due to the aforementioned allergies is finally kicking. I should have some more up tomorrow!
