Fun Photo Shoot
I feel weird posting pictures of myself, but I had the opportunity to have a fun photo shoot with the super talented Jessica from trulytaken and just had to post one to give her a shout out. And, I am so proud of myself for passing my riding test and getting my license.

The night Riley saved Murphy's life...
Last night Ken got up to let the dogs out before it started to rain. When they were done, back into their kennels they went. They all sleep in their own kennels, in the office. About half an hour later, Riley starts barking and howling like I have never heard before. I laid there for a few minutes (it was 2:30 in the morning, I really didn't want to get up). After he wouldn't stop, I got up because I thought maybe Ken locked the cat in the office and that was why Riley was all worked up. Um, no. I turned on the light, and Murphy was in his kennel having what looked like a seizure. (flashbacks to Max here, not sure how I kept calm). In his kennel, he sleeps on a bed pillow with a pillow case (I know, spoiled). Sometimes he gets inbetween the pillow and the pillowcase and uses the pillowcase as a blanket. That is what had happened last night, only the corner of the pillow case was wrapped around his head. At first I thought he was freaking out because he couldn't find his way out. When I got closer to him, and saw the pillowcase wrapped around his head, I tore it off and he had thrown up this white stuff that was now all over his head because the pillow case was wrapped so tightly. He was doing this seizure thing so I pulled him onto my lap and I started yelling for Ken. After what seemed like a very long time, but probably was only a minute or two, he got off my lap and started walking like he was drunk. He was still trying to catch his breath. When I got close to him, he would growl and try to bite me. This went on for what seemed like forever and all I could think was that he had suffered brain damage from lack of oxygen. About 10 minutes later he snapped out of it and then went all crazy to see me - jumping all over me and licking my face. THANK GOODNESS. He seems fine this morning, a little more excited to see me than usual, but he seems to be fine. I am certain he would have suffocated in that pillowcase last night if Riley hadn't alerted us that something was wrong. And just 2 weeks shy of his 3rd birthday, that little dog has a lot of balls left to chase.

Cutie Pies
This is how Ken found me and the dogs the other night when he walked into the living room (and a side note, I realize every time I get my picture taken, I am wearing my Packers shirt. I assure you, I do not live in it.)
I can't imagine any of them were comfortable, but that is how they hung out with me on the couch.

How Time Flies
I got an email from an old high school classmate this week. She was trying to track me down to invite me to our 20 YEAR HIGH SCHOOL REUNION. Ummm.....how can 20 years have passed so quickly? I still remember that day like it was yesterday. I don't think I am going to be able to make it, even though I really want to. With my job, I can take off whenever I want, but Ken doesn't have enough vacation time to go back home with me for this, and still take some time to go camping this summer and do our annual Mexico trip in October. Just as well, I guess. It would cost a fortune to drive back to Wisconsin. But, I was really wanting to see old classmates and show Ken the town where I grew up. I haven't been back there in 10 years, so I am sure it has grown and changed a lot, but I still love that town. And in sad news, how is it possible that six people from my class have already died? I sat at my desk and just cried. Strange to cry when I haven't seen or talked to those people in 20 years, but it still made me incredibly sad.
Ken is in OH for the weekend visiting his folks and guess what I did while he was gone? Movies? Dinner? Shopping? Nope. How about steam cleaned the carpets. Yep, I am a fun and exciting girl!!

How long does one search the living room for the remote before she/he turns the channel by pushing the buttons on the actual tv?
