Wow! Is it the end of the day already? Ryan and I have done so much today. It started out with a quick trip for coffee turning into a two and a half run to the townhouse to load stuff. Then, unloading and I decided I wanted to cut the grass in the backyard. They are supposed to do it for us, but since it was raining the guy couldn't get back there and we had a jungle! Well, we I went looking for the extension cord, it was at the other house, so another long trip to the townhouse. Finally got home and settled, cut the grass, raked, and sprayed the yard for fleas(Star actually had one on her the other night) and right as I finish, the guy comes around to mow our yard!! He really didn't need to mow over what I did, but he did and now I need to rake again so the stray grass isn't carried in on Star's fur. Mission accomplished on my part though! I also planted some flowers yesterday for our front porch. I have three pots sitting under our front window. We will have to see how long they last.


I did have to tear Ryan away from his motorcycle today though. He was tweeking the bolts on it and making eveything line up just right. When I got back with my second load from the house, I asked him to help unload. Eventually I had to ask him again since he was so involved with perfecting all the bolts on the bike. I am happy that he found another hobby that will keep his stress down. Now I just need to find a new one for me to keep the stress down!


Ryan and I are puppy-sitting this weekend too. Lauren, the friend of mine who took are "flip that dog" was going to college graduations and asked us to take care of Addie. She is fun to have around for a couple of days....she keeps Raider running. Maybe he could actually lose some of his weight. Stay plays with Addie too-tug-of-war, chase and all kinds of things. Right now Star has a bone that she is not willing to give up and is snapping at Addie for trying to get it. I guess the princess side of her is coming out.


To close the day, Ryan took me out to eat at Fridays. While we were waiting we got to talk about wedding plans some and what he wants vs. what I want. Let's just say....we have no idea right now! :) Then we got Sheridan's together and are about to watch a movie. It is so great having time to stop and share little things together.


Moving is going great since I have had time away from work. We just have a couple of things at the townhouse and then we have to clean. Tomorrow our plan is to get the aquarium, which should be fun since it is a 20 gallon tank. Last time we moved it, we emptied all the water, I still almost dropped it and we lost ALL the fish we had. Right now we only have one...I will let you know how tomorrow goes though.

As for the laundry - the boys have the zipper up hampers. They fill them up and roll them down the stairs. I usually put the clean clothes back in them and nag them to take upstairs. However, I usually end up doing it.( I need the exercise) There is one good thing about having an extra bedroom downstairs. You can always put the laundry there.

Take care and enjoy the new place.
