Muppet -nothing wrong with state fairs! But I know what you mean... It's not like there's a lot of health food choices at them. The fried Snickers dessert wasn't actually on the menu at the restaurant, just something yummy my guy arranged because he knew I'd like it. It's popular with the cooks for sure! Actually the shrimp appetizer wasn't on the menu either, but he likes being creative and making things specially for me on the rare occasion I get to come eat out there. Ps. Also pets can have their first litters at 6 months, but they can be neutered/spayed nearly anytime before that. i thought the same thing about how old the had to be but the vet said no, that was just generally when they did it. So I guess it's more flexible in timing than we though.
Carrie -there were definately moments when my friend and I just stopped our conversation and stared, distracted by Morgan. That's cool you met Drew Carry but also funny you didn't recognize him. I always figured It's be hard to recognize stars in normal clothing unless they were really your favorite or something.
Love the random chatting, you guys are great, but got to get to the dirty work too. (Thank you all for your comments. It's amazing how this site has kept me going and all the people here I think about but have never met.) I went home Friday and put on my exercise gear and honestly just wore it around procrastinating for quite a while. But, in the end I turned on the BL DVD and got some exercise. I really really love the cool-down stretching with them, and not just because it means the workout is over. The puppies got really excited when I did the jumping jacks and the they chased me for a while, but overall I was able to do my workout and keep an eye on them too. I also took a few pictures of myself with my digital and swore the next time my belly would get like that, there'd be a baby inside it. (And that had better be a while too!)
The rest of the weekend though I didn't excercise with a routine but I was very active. I had a lot of cleaning, laundry, and sweeping on Saturday and Sunday I babysat for my boss's 3-yr-old daughter in a 2 story house and we went up and down and up and down to fetch toys and play for several hours. I got my workout there for sure. Today we're calling the landlord though because the AC isn't working and it's 85-90 inside during the day. Too hot for exercise or puppies or anything but laying around feeling icky.
Oh, and on Father's day the puppies gave V a card with their pawprints in it. (That was an ordeal, puppies and paint!) He loved it and put it on display above the TV.
Tonight is our anniversary and we're both taking off early to celebrate togther and spend some time together. We'll probably head to dinner, but no more snickers bars for me. I think I'll just enjoy my company tonight. 2 years ago he asked me to be his girlfriend when he was still in Australia and I was here, he was planning his trip to come over and we were talking on the phone. And today, we're engaged, have 2 puppies, and can't imagine life without each other.
Sorry, I know not everyone wants to read about relationships, but he and I have been through some crappy times so I'm excited we can enjoy how far we've come and that we're still together and stronger after all the rollercoasters.
Thank you all for keeping me on track. You guys are the best.
