Older and Wiser

I went out this morning with my dog’s and listened to more new birds that have arrived for spring. Last week the duck couple that frequents my neighbors pool liner came back. My neighbor has many overflowing bird feeders so they get plenty to eat and he doesn’t take his liner off early so they swim in the snow that melted in it. I heard one of my favorite birds,the robin. I love their songs. The grackles are pecking at specks. This year is going great as far as muddy feet from the dogs or maybe I am older and more tolerant. I was told by my cable guys that came to put in my digital phone and internet that Zeke is amazingly huge for a shepard. I looked at my lovely dog with new eyes. Why yes, he is huge and has huge feet. I do have to mop more with spring but this year I am older,wiser and complaint free! Alas, it has taken five years with the monster to realize he can’t help his size. I am just kidding, I love my dogs, hee hee.

more soon: off to enjoy some incredible weather!

Spring and random thoughts

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , , , on March 26, 2008 by vbrice

I finally found out about the crazy paper thief at my job. He has admitted he has a bad problem and is getting help. He is a strange guy. I really hope the dude gets better and will be glad when he is gone. He really thought he could get away with it and my intuition was right on. When I first met him I did not like him and I usually like everyone. I had a busy week so far. I moved my office with help from some people we hired for the day. It was fun to move and now I work with two other ladies and I see more of the other people I work with too because they are all just down the building and around the corner. Today I got everything set the way I like it and now am settled in. I am in a yellow office. The main reason I moved is because the two ladies had to move out of their building too. The people that are moving into their old area are getting out of the building my boss owns. We are going to move into that building in September but first it has to be renovated. We will have to move one more time but it was not as bad or as hard as I thought so I really don’t mind moving again. I am stiff and sore but only because I really lifted a lot of cardboard boxes. My husband knew I was moving and made supper. I took a relaxing bath and then watched Idol. Spring is definitely here as my dog Zeke is getting muddy paws. My dog has big feet! The mopping of my kitchen has begun. I did a poop scoop search as more snow has melted as I am sure a lot of dog owners do. I spotted my first robin of the year over the weekend and today I heard one! I have daffodils and tiger lilies and hyacinths sprouting along with fresh green little blades of grass!

more soon: I have to read emails yet tonight.
