1 dog, 2 rabbits, 1 frog, 2 cats, and 3 bunnies ...

And all I really want to claim is the dog, the 2 rabbits, and the frog.

How do I have so many pets you ask?

This cat keeps showing up. He told a friend and that friend told a friend. Sometimes I see 4 cats on my property, but for the most part it is this guy (Barney) and his friend who hangs out near our garage. He likes to come in and sleep on our warm couch in the sun room. My girls love him

... all except my oldest, Emily.

Then there is the 3 bunnies. WHAT! Bunnies again?!?!?!?Yes, I thought I would be nice and help clean out the bunny hutch when all of a sudden I saw 3 slightly hairy, blind baby bunnies squirming around. I really would love to shout out a good EXPLETIVE, but I guess it is my fault. We really thought we had 2 girl bunnies and didn't want to spend the money on spaying. OOPS! So ... on Monday Holly (let's just call him Hollister now) is going in for a neutering procedure. He is now separated from mom because i just read that a mom can become pregnant again immediately after giving birth to a litter. GREAT

. Please pray that is not the case. I have moved Hollister to another cage. Poor Chrysanthemum

. Anyone want a bunny? I've now got 3 more than I would like!

Momto5minnies meets the Pioneer Woman!

I read her blog and knew that she was coming into town for her book signing and I thought about going, but I also knew it was the day that I was getting my braces off (MONDAY 11/9). On Sunday night before, my husband made a quick trip to Walmart and brought home a flyer saying how Ree Drummond (The Pioneer Woman) was coming the next day. I'm not sure if my husband was more excited about me getting my braces off the next day or having me MEET THE PIONEER WOMAN. I guess I really did want to go, but now I HAD TO GO! Monday was a crazy day ... jitters in the am 4.6 mile run to make me feel relaxed (it was also my longest run yet) drop the 12 year old at her homeschool art class quick trip to Walmart (to see if there were Pioneer Woman cookbooks ... no luck, but my husband picked me up a few ... I'm gifting some for Christmas). home to throw a pot roast in the crockpot braces removal at 11:30am dentist visit at 1pm usual afterschool chaos of swim team home for a 30 minute rest wa...

A scattered post ...

I throw myself into stuff all the time. It can be anything from the start of a swim season, a new school year, the election, a vacation, an exercise routine etc. I'm kind of in a phase where I really don't know what my focus should be. I turned on the television and honestly, I have no idea what is on this fall season ... NO IDEA AT ALL . If I watched television in the past few months, it was something kid related or Fox News. I NEED A NEW FOCUS. My current thoughts ... reading a fictional, just for fun book stepping up my exercise routine thinking about our Christmas wish lists and shopping baking more ... I really am slacking in this area ways to save money so that we can get a new (second) washer and dryer for the upstairs (not a fancy kind because this would mostly be used by my oldest two children)... I actually have hookups. I wonder if a lot of people go through a sort of "lull" period this time of the year. Surely it doesn't last long with the start ...

Not a lot has changed ...

As a puppy he always liked a warm spot. We call Comet our "close talker" (from Seinfeld) because he is in your face and always a little too close for our comfort level. The girls don't seem to mind, but it can be a little annoying for my husband and I. Really, he is a fabulous dog. He listens well and is so gentle with everyone. *We don't let Comet on furniture ... except for the playroom/schoolroom couch. There he enjoys relaxing and being read to by one of the girls. SPOILED POOCH!
