So GoT is back, which is wonderful.

I loved

Davos and Sallador

Jon and Mance!! (seemed pretty believable to me)

Tywin and Tyrion (seriously great scene)

Cersei, Margaery and Joff (he's so sheepish lol)


Can't wait for Arya's storyline this season!! I won't spoil it for non-book-readers but there are fun times up ahead (my favorite chapters of the series to date).

Looking forward to more scenes with the direwolves too!

I *should* finally be picking up the first of my lab fosters this weekend. Hopefully... I just want to get them already so I can stop fretting about getting to know them before I am able to place them!

Hopefully it'll be Sunday, we'll see.

Woo! Congrats Dizzy!
Let the spoiling commence!

Boy or girl? Name?
Boy. Thomas Michael :) 5lb 14oz, which isn't a lot considering he was a week overdue!

Meeting him next weekend! Already got a pile of presents for him! Won't see much of him as they live in China at the moment :( home for the birth. Imagine they'll be back before long though, then its only 4 hrs away, which isn't so bad!

He's cute :)

I'm getting broody, not good!

What a difference a day makes.

I took Hannah to the doctors yesterday after she had been feeling bad most of the weekend. GI virus... just had to wait it out.

Brought her home and she was shivering from fever and she basically slept all day. Hadn't eaten in almost three days.

Last night she woke up a bunch of times SOAKED in sweat and we had to change her jammies like three times.

Today, fever broke (still low grade fever but nothing major) and she is perky and playing and she ate cereal and a granola bar :) I knew it was going to be a good day when she woke up and asked for breakfast :)

Recon slept out of his crate last night for the first time, loose with free run of the house minus bedrooms. He did great! Yay. He just slept on the couch all night from what I could tell. So awesome.

Tonight he gets to be demo dog for the first time at the CGC/Rally classes I'm assisting with. I hope he's as excited as I am. ;)

Also, he's doing so much better at leash walking and staying quiet in the crate in my office while there are other dogs playing. :D

I just signed up for a transformations conditioning program. The results people get through this program are amazing and I really like that its very back to basics with exercises. I'm scared because its a pretty big change but I'm also pretty excited too! Ahhhh!

And tomorrow I'm going in to the college to talk with an advisor about enrolling in a program there. Also scary but exciting.

So many changes and so much getting my crap together. I'm shaking in my chucks but its all good.

I feel like I might actually have a plan for my life. Or at least some semblance of a 5 year plan anyway. :)

And Journ has Agility class tonight. This should be good news as long as her brain is back to working order haha. Her mind was lost last week. On everything at once, but not on me at all. Bratty 6 month old puppy.

I'm so excited. We're renting right now, and back in December there was a really great opportunity to move houses to another place for rent, but it fell through. Their last renter was a bad experience, and they weren't sure about renting it out again. They changed their mind & now my parents are back in contact with them, and going in for an interview, they are family friends soooo.

It's a kind of strange situation, because the house is also a tourist attraction during the summer on weekends. So basically there would be awesome perks for renting it, we'd give tours of the front rooms on the weekends, and it is HUGE. Also, it has an awesome, huge fenced in yard. And stairs straight from the 2nd floor bedroom to the yard, so housetraining Futurepuppy = easy. And it's really close to the great dog park, and such good location omg & dat yard. I can go on, and on. I really hope this works out.

Turns out the house we have under contract is maybe not going to work out. I am looking at this as a positive because I don't want to move into something that is going to be a mess when this is a newer home. the garage is supposedly brand new but the foundation was not laid properly and is crumbling causing cracks in the wall. They said they may be able to pass it through inspection sense its not an attached garage but I don' want it if that was put up that shoddily. And I am doubtful the bank is going to put up a new one or take the money off for us to demolish and put up a new one.

So I am glad this was caught! Still have to have the inspector back out with utilities on for official inspection though.

I signed Diesel up for beginner obedience classes tonight! I'm so excited, he is the first dog since my Chow, Pippin (14 years ago) that I have done it with because he is the first dog I have EVAR that has been willing AND able to do agility/rally-o and stuff with, so this is our first step, I'm sooooo excited!
