Time comes and goes...

So, I was able to post a few things from the beginning of my vacation...but once I got to MI, I did not really have computer access. :-) The rest of my visit went fine. I got to spend time with my parents and John's family at my aunt's cottage on Lake Wixom. (I had also taken Laura's 2 oldest girls with me.) Then we drove down to Brooklyn, MI for a Swaffer family reunion. It was nice to see many people I had not seen in about 5 years. Wow, I hadn't realized it had been so long.

Since returning home, I have pretty much been doing the normal...working, eating, sleeping. :-) Sparky had his yearly vet check up. He is pretty healthy physically I guess...but we are still working on some behavioral issues. Bless his heart! I love him dearly, but he really needs to work on a few things. I hope and pray he will get "better". He goes to the vet next week for a grooming...because they will have to sedate him to groom him. (Naughty little boy!)

I had an adventure "building" a bed this week. I bought a "loft bed", in an effort to create more space in my room. Well, Kendra helped me get it home from the store...and then I set to work "building" it. Yikes...there were ABSOLUTELY NO directions in the box! So, it was just me, the parts, a picture on the box and my brains. :-D All in all...I guess I did a pretty good job. The only thing I couldn't figure out was what washers went where...so they are still in the box. ;-) So far, the bed has not collapsed, so I take that as a good sign. :-)
