Today

I had government class this morning. I have a project due next Tuesday and have to get up in front of the class to present it. I'm already nervous. After class I went to the pet store to get some stuff. I picked up some puppy food for "Wiggles" (Scout) and when I took it over to the house we hung out outside for a bit. I wandered around the pond and when Scout was having a drink



I looked closely I saw this...

What is it you ask? Lilly leaves? Nope, it's under the water. There is a huge cluster of tadpole eggs! Just waiting to make lots of noise and probably some will end up being turtle food.


Then, when Scout looked closer...

She saw this...


I think she wanted to play with the tiny orange koi, but her puppy A.D.D distracted her away.

Halloween Scout

Scout was a bee for her first Halloween. She loathed the entire experience and my laughing probably did not help her any...

Pouting

Red Bud

I took Scout to Red Bud Park a few weeks ago so that she could play in the water. It is a leash free park and there are always tons of dogs. She doesn't listen very well, but hasn't been lost yet (knock on wood) so things are good. She LOVES playing in the water, but won't swim yet.

Lately

Tonight, I am home. I am listening to the Dallas Stars playoff game on the tv as I do absolutely nothing on this fantastic computer of mine. My cats are rolling around on the ground attacking each other. No noises, hisses or sounds, just the sound of their bodies smashing the ground as they flail and try to be top cat. Oops, one of them just fell down the stairs. I think that game may be over...

My week? Monday, no softball, so the team went and played pool. Well, not the entire team, we were missing half, but it was fun. Tuesday, softball practice, then a game. Oh yeah, I also went and talk to the little community college here and will be attending this summer. Working towards some sort of architecture degree. I'm ready to bust this out and feel a little more complete about things. I never liked school...but I think i'm at a point that I want more out of myself.

I went and saw "21" last night. Good, entertaining movie. Not going to win any awards, but it was fun to watch.

And tonight...nothing. I should be working on a website, but i'm not. I'm obsessing over my fantasy baseball team. I lost the first week, pushed away my emotional ties to the Braves team and chunked the boys that weren't obtaining ANY points for me. I'm doing better this week. Today, I was up by 20 some points.

Here's the latest pic of the "baby". She's only 5.5 months old...it's crazy. I realized that all the pictures I have of her are of her lying down. The others are blurry...she's quick and all over the place.

Water Dog

I had to post this before I go to sleep. Yes, i'm exhausted, but it's too good to forget about.

Today while I was helping set up for G's 10th Bday I took Scout outside so she wouldn't terrorize the inside. I turned on the water and started spraying the yard. She ran back and forth, chasing the water. Then she became the smartest dog in the world and went directly to the source. The end of the hose. I did NOT move the hose in any way. She was the one attacking it and biting at the water coming out. This picture is so perfect!
