The rain has gone, but problems arise!

So yesturday I discovered what I thought was an accident by one of the dogs infront of our patio door....only it wasn't. Turns out it had been raining so much, water was actually getting into our house and soaking the carpet! I could step on the carpet and have water jump between my toes. It reminded me of "the flood" and of the first water that came in from Mom's closet. Needless to say I freaked out a bit because of that, but all is well. We got the carpet guys out here today since it finally stopped raining!!! They ripped up the carpet and tore out the padding about five feet away from both of the doors, now we have fans in our living room drying it all out. We will see what tomorrow brings now! They were forecasting more rain. Good thing we have renter's insurance!! :)



You can see the little blower we have in our living room in the pic. It is small, but pretty loud!!




Ryan and I made it to the Tech game on Saturday. I wanted to share this one billboard that we really liked.



I have been crazy busy. Today was my first really long day. I had my lab at seven thirty this morning, had class until three twenty and then had to be at work by three thirty! Ryan is so sweet and every Tuesday and Thursday he meets me in the parking lot with a snack and a hug. That makes things a lot better. Plus he is cooking supper a lot too. With taking biochem this semester, I really won't have time to slack off too much on homework and quizzes.

Star made us both really pissed the other night. To begin with she HATES the rain. When it is raining you might as well just put her straight into the bathroom as punishment because even if you throw her onto the grass to potty, she runs back to the door, then we spank her, put her back on the grass and it just keeps going. Anyway, this had been going on Friday and Saturday and Ryan and I were just about to leave her on the back porch except it was cold too. She hadn't went potty outside all day, so Sunday night we took her out. It started all the same with putting her in the grass. This time though the neighbors opened their garage door to leave and she took off! Little Miss ran underneath his car and would not come out! Ryan and I were laying on the garage floor with treats and coxing her out for about fifteen minutes. Grrrrr She got a real nice spank and then slept in the downstairs bathroom all night. Plus we were both really embarassed.
