Third one's the charm...
This is such a nice bed and I got it for Buddy at Cosco in Virginia. My love for this dog never dwindles even though he is a mess. God love him...

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me. This is what Buddy did when I replaced his dog bed.


For some reason, maybe I thought it would make me feel better, I decided to get another cat. After losing Sam I never thought I would ever be able to get a new one. However, surfing the web led me to this photo of Frost and it was love at first sight. Nothing was going to keep me from getting this kitty. I forked over a wad of cash, had this poor animal flown in from California, and now Jeff is covered from head to toe with hives. Jeff would never complain. His eyes are swollen shut and red and white blotches cover his back and neck. So now we wait for an allergy test to determine if we can be cat people or if I am to just be a stopping point on this kitty's journey to his forever home.

What happens when Keith's Out of Town


This is Buddy and he is cute. Winston is a good dog but will end up getting us sued. The temperature dropped 15 degrees and it started snowing. This freaks out Winston who is scared of his own shadow. In my rush to get Karina to dance, Winston sneaks into the house. Once I am almost out of my neighborhood, Cheryl calls and tells me the alarm is going off at my house. Winston has tripped the motion detector. Fabulous! I have 3 errands to run and had my time mapped out perfectly. Either I rescue the dog or the kids forego a decent lunch tomorrow since all we have left are brown apples and old ham. I grudgingly get the dog. KPD is in my driveway and informs me my house is locked. I explain how the alarm went off and let Winston out who proceeds to chase the police man to his car and bite his leg. Thanks Old Pal...

What happens when Keith's Out of Town


If TMI is too much then stop reading this immediately. I have Crohn's and it's a bitch of a disease. Especially if you carpool. I don't eat breakfast so I can get the kids out the door and in school at a decent hour, but I have to have lunch and there lies the problem. No matter what, the Crohn's fairy visits me while I am trapped in the pick up line. She came today and it was awesome! Nothing like starting the work week strong.

Jeff


Look at what Jeff did on the computer -- by himself.

Buddy



Buddy gets a lot of baths since his fur is like Velcro. I also think he hates me since each morning he poops right next to where I step to get into the van. This morning it was a huge poo next to the door.
Winston, now that's a great dog.

Another snow




It snowed again. Not a lot but I'll take anything. We learned that Buddy's fur is like Velcro and anything will stick to it. Including snow and leaves.

Real - Live- Snow


It actually snowed here since the Blizzard of '96 and it was fun!

Hunter and Jeff


I love these guys!

A little wow!


Cindy's digs are pretty sweet.

We're still here


We are still here just not blogging a lot. I live in my car right now and actually had a shoe thrown at the back of my head because my car does not have a sink.

Disney


We went to Disney World. This is our first day. Karina and Jordan had breakfast with Cinderella at her castle!

Celebrating



Celebrating a great first week of school with Jeff and Zach.

My old room


We've come full circle. Karina is in my old classroom. This is her second time at ESK in kindergarten. I was pregnant with her the last time.

First day of kindergarten
