Three Day Weekends Rule!
I wish I didn't have to go back to work tomorrow. This weekend has been just what I needed. Cool weather, rain, time to think and be alone, time to hang out with friends and family. I don't want it to end. Damn.
I've decided I'm not giving Jake away. My neighbor is just going to have to suffer and deal with it. She can suck it for all I care. I can't abandon my dog, and after some advice of coworkers, I tuned into that show, The Dog Whisperer. Lo and behold, the show featured a dog named Jake who had a barking problem. What a sign, huh? I've been vigilant though, trying to keep Jake occupied and active. Giving him the stern treatment when I suspect he's going to act up. It's been helping, he's not barking as much. Mind you, he still does, but the situation is improving for now.
Come on, how can you not feel for Jake? Look at that adorable face!
Be proud of me, I cleaned my patio! Yay! All this getting strict with Jake made me organize my backyard. The patio is pretty and clean. Plus it rained, so of course I had the door wide open, just the screen door closed. Listening to the rain is very therapeutic. And that woodsy rain smell, it's the best. Supposedly there is more rain to come next weekend. We'll see, but for now I'm enjoying the cloudy weather.
I did end up spending the day hanging out with my sister and niece in Fresno shopping. I gave myself a limit, but Barnes and Noble had a great sale. I splurged. I adore B&N. As for my purchases - three books, Robert Hellenga's Philosophy Made Simple, Paulo Coelho's The Devil and Miss Prym, and Marcel Proust's Swann's Way. And I found Jim Henson's The Storyteller Definitive Collection DVD! Anyone who truly knows me knows that I am a fanatic when it comes to Jim Henson. Nothing screams childhood more to me than my 80's hero. There were more purchases, but I'll spare you the details.
Lu's pleasure party was superfun. She never fails to have my in hysterics, especially when she introduced the party to her new guy on the side, Duracell. Hahahah! Turns out I'm going to host a party. First Pampered Chef, now Pure Romance, what's next?
I've yet to blog about my excursion for today, but I have laundry waiting for me. I'll post pictures and details tomorrow.
