Skunked

Well last week, Jones got skunked... playing with the midnight critters in the back yard. The ever faithful watchdog is not banished to an insider spectator sport. He is a great companion. We had a grand time washing out linens and airing out the house.

Mitch called in from Camp Mather - he got Friday off and took a trip down to the YLP house with some of his coworker/friends.

Heather and Matt came up our way this weekend for a wedding on Sunday but spent Saturday afternoon and evening with Grams. Matt and I took a quick run to Best Buy and almost bot a new HDTV but they were out of stock, we settled for a WII and entertained ourselves with bowling, tennis and boxing in the evening after our Kenny Chinese Dinner. I did enlist Matt and Heathers help in moving some items to the storage shed and rearranging the living room but Matt was unable to fix the printer. So the list of broken items around the house is mounting...dishwasher, printer, one burner on the stove and the oven thermostate.... Hope we can hold out till Christmas! Or get it all done at once if I can get a big push.

Mom has a Dr. appointment on Wed - will have to reorder some of her pain meds as she is getting low and using more frequently. Thursday Cindy and Joe will stop by for a visit, they are in town for grandson's 8th grade graduation. Thanks for the call this week Melinda. I sat mom down on the computer to view the Gavin and Faith show - fun to watch them grow. We heard from Nancy too, so nice to catch up with you both. Bonnie has a birthday coming up - Happy Birthday to you!.
