Winter Wonderland

LOST

If you know me, then you know I am a huge LOST fan.

The penultimate season starts tonight, aka the fifth season, on ABC. The first hour is just for recapping what has happened so far, following that are two all new episodes. So set your DVRs or watch it live with me.

Please ignore that the following image is stolen.

Surprise!

Today I had two surprises.

First, my work had an early dismissal today due to MLK Jr. day on Monday. This was great and I chose to spend the extra time getting my car serviced. w00t!

The second surprise of the day for me was not as wonderful. I can home from the car place, got the mail, put some dishes away in the kitchen, and then went to the bathroom. This is where the second surprise occurred - I know what you are thinking and don't worry I'm not going there :) The surprise was that a quarter of the toilet paper roll was missing! I realized right away this was something Chewy must have done. When he was a puppy we gave him the empty TP roll to play with and he LOVED that. I guess he's either trying to get the toy our of the wrapping, or he is protesting his new hairdo. Now he has been out and about while we are at work for a long time and this is the first I have ever had him get into trouble like this. He usually just eats a hole in a sock or a blanket - he has never touched the toilet paper.

Look at the guilt on that face!

Note the beautiful new hair do as well!

The scene of the crime.

So now we have to make sure the bathroom door is closed during the day before we both leave the house.

Chewy's new look

Chewy got his haircut a little early this year. Usually we'd cut his hair in the late winter/early spring, but we had to do it earlier this time since he was really matting. He kept licking the mats(i think because dirt and debris were in them) till his skin got irritated, so no more hair equals no more mats. We got a lot done this evening but we still have to tackle the head. So right now he has a BIG head and tiny body. Just like a supermodel or a lion.

Water

Have you ever tried drinking the 8 glasses of water a day? I'm trying to do that this year and I hope that my body adjusts to this change soon. I'm so tired of having to go to the bathroom all the time. I feel like I'm Jenna. :)

Jami's new place

Jami has moved to North Carolina and is settled into her house. Tom and Kris (her aunt and uncle) found a great house across the street for her to live in while she is going to school. Because of this she got to bring the dogs with her and that will help her feel more at home in NC.

Jenna had to ride with the dogs in the backseat on the way down. I appreciated this because I have a small allergy to Bailey's hair. It was tight quarters back there.

We all worked hard cleaning and unpacking the place so Jami could feel at home.

Jami really appreciated all the help because it would have taken her about 2 years to unpack all this stuff! We did it in 4 days (with 8 people).

Jenna and I made sure every box was emptied, and we ended up with a lot of empty boxes. This pile is only a third of the boxes we unpacked.
We had a kickoff breakfast Sunday morning with everyone.
