This blog was formerly dedicated in 2009 to my Dad who died of Alzheimer's in 2013. It's been three years now...and I find myself missing blogging...so I am re-inventing my blog... because, after all, life is about moving through, and going forward...

I Am Still Drunk On Baby Jacob's Scent...

Got home Monday afternoon around 2pm.  Izzy was so excited to see me, she jumped at least three feet in the air.  It was miserably hot, but felt so good to return to air conditioning.

Today is my husband's birthday, so I was out running errands and getting his birthday card and gifts as I had no time while in California... We just got in.  He has an early meeting tomorrow morning, so we decided to just go to dinner (Italian of course) and then we stopped by another restaurant where one of my hubby's friends was giving his girlfriend a surprise birthday party.  Her birthday is the same as my husbands, plus they are both from Buffalo, New York!

We had planned on going to the movies to see WALL STREET...but since he has the early meeting, we will go tomorrow or Thursday.

He leaves for annual Mexico trip Saturday afternoon, and my sister arrives Saturday morning for the week he will be gone!!  I am so excited I cannot concentrate.  WE ARE GOING TO HAVE SO MUCH FUN!!

I have more errands to run tomorrow.  My left wedding band ring finger and the middle finger next to it are still sore...they just ache.  I am going to try rubbing DEEP HEAT on them... 

Izzy was so good last night...when it was bedtime, she followed me into our room, and she walked right into her crate.  She feels lighter...I think she lost weight...  This was the longest I have ever boarded her.

Since being in California, my sleep pattern is all goofed up.  I fall asleep between 8pm and 9pm, waking up at 5:30am.  My eyes are flapping right now and I cannot wait to hit the sheets.

Sorry this post is so boring...I am still drunk on baby Jacob's scent...

Glad you made it home! Isn't it great, the joy that dogs show when you have been gone?
And now you can look forward to a week with your sister - lucky you!

NO it's not boring. I love it when people talk about their day. It was interesting enough for you to write about it.

I´m glad you got home safely. Happy Birthday to your husband. Is the Mexico trip part of his gift? :)
Have a great time with your sister!

I can just imagine how glad Izzy was to see you and how she let you know.
Happy birthday to your husband.

I wasn't bored with it, Donna. glad you got back home safely. Happy (belated) Birthday to your husband! I hear that Wall Street movie is supposed to be pretty good. Yum with Italian food! I do think dogs loose weight when they are boarded; Koda always does. I think its because he doesn't get as many treats, LOL, and also because I think they get a little upset being in different surroundings. I bet Izzy indeed was glad to see you!! how fun with your sister coming for a week!
