Sunday after Easter

The week was filled with amazing wonders. The trip to Arizona was simple but long. Houston was another airport. Arrived to Phoenix about 7:00 pm on Easter. Good to be there and see everyone...long day tires. Monday I took Amanda shopping in the afternoon after we slept WAY-IN! Tuesday we just did stuff. Wednesday Amanda, Lexi & Emily and I took the Light rail to Phoenix downtown where I made my new friend who had a weekend pass if you get my drift. Got to go to Oregano's where Kristen works. We spent the day Tuesday at Old Scottsdale, shopping and enjoying the spring weather. Lunch at Sugar bowl. On Thursday, we went grocery shopping and to the Apple store to discover that Amanda had fried her computer which is why mine stayed with her. Flew home on Friday not to the delight of the United people who claimed that because I used 2 different credit cards to book my trip that was originally booked for next week and had to be changed to last week to the tune of another 100.00......I was fraud. When you are dealing with "people" in Manila, you have no recourse and they don't get anything. What morons. Glad that the gate people, the service people and pilots r us are normal. What a trip! I like flying but.......like everyone else, they are trying to save a dime. It is what it is and the 3 hour time change has not finished with me yet.

Delta Dog Days 3

 We have not been able to leave her alone for more than a few minutes.  UGH newborn.  She is a sweetheart and not bothered or barking at other dogs. After I worked at the Thrift shop I took her up to the pool deck and locked the gate.  She is so small  she got through the rungs of the deck.  ðŸ˜³  It is what it is.  She is so sweet but so is needy and so challenging.

Delta Dog Day 4

 Beyond belief, we both got to sleep upstairs in our bed all night!  She could not scale the new gate and settled in her crate in the kitchen around 2:00 AM.  Otto gave me the night but after she settled, he came upstairs and she did not bark or whine all night!!!   I came down after a shower, took her outside on her lead and then fed her.  Back upstairs to do my hair etc.  I heard "something" and came downstairs to find that she had opened the pantry (that has a magnet closure on it for dog/children safety) and had a bag of marshmallows on the floor, not opened thank goodness.   I blocked it with a chair but removed anything that she could get to if she opened it again (within her reach).  NOTE:  new plan for pantry.   Later in the day we were sitting outside with her and she picked some cherry tomatoes and ate them (yes I checked on Google that they are NOT poisonous for dogs).  After dinner with friends, she snatched a corncob an...

School's out, teacher let the fools out!

No more pencils, no more books, no more STUDENT'S dirty looks! What a group I had this year, eiy yie yie! I can honestly say if I never see some of that bunch again, it will be too soon. Fun party last night...too tired to sleep! Nice feeling to sleep in. ADK party this afternoon, piano lesson (may have to re-schedule), picking up new car in Ann Arbor and going to Amanda's 2 baseball games. Nice video chat with Andrew & Matt last night. They get so silly! Brian landed safely in L.A. at 2:09 our time. His plane from Philly was delayed over 3 hours. All day to go 5 hours sucks, but he is safe! Congratulations Matthew Sandoval on your middle school graduation. Have fun with your family. I cleaned out 2 filing cabinets of old 4th grade files and old materials we don't use any more. I think I filled 10 boxes to re-cycle. I didn't get my bulletin boards done for fall (who knows where I will be anyway!) or my books sorted (paperbacks). Administrative whispe...
