Well, Well, Well, Tuesday and Wednesday went by so fast! I had to make a couple of runs to town today for the vet and the $ store...I found some raw hide bones etc. for Alex...he is tearing everything up so hopefully this will help - he is such a PUPPY!!! Also I got some meds for the vet that is suppose to be like prozac for puppies so we will see if that calms him down...

Wednesday...O ME...I get up let Alex and Skip out then take a shower and getting ready and open the door for them to come in - no dogs arounds - so I give them another 15 minutes and go and skip is ready to come in and eat but there is no Alex...so i go out the back door and I see him out at the lake!!!! he jumped out of the fenced in yard...o no...all I can think is I am going to have to live with him getting out...so I run after him and finally get him...now needless to say everywhere possible for him to get out has plywood up ;)then when I got him in he got a pill from the vet - and it worked - he wasn't druged out just calm...GREAT...I actually got some work done today!

All I can say it I am ready to be home, I am ready for Dennis and Tina to be home!and I am ready to get paid for this and go to Florida!!!!!o yeah and the constuction to be DONE!!!

Day 1 or 17

Yeah I'm not to happy right at the moment but it will get better! I started house-sitting yesterday for 17 days while my boss in taking a trip to Europe/Paris. I usually stay about a week while they go to Florida etc., but this is a biggy...I will try to post each day to let you know what happens b/c there is always something going on here.

Yesterday, I walked the dogs it was so nice the weather and the dogs(WOW)! I eat a ham sandwich and some chips then I get on the elliptical and do some weights...man i feelin good! THEN I eat ICE CREAM...lets just say that ruined the night...I eat a whole dang bowl of the good stuff...then watch big brother - YEAH - I hope Adam wins!! Then I go upstaires to go to bed...WRONG!!

I get in the bed and something smells funny!!! yeah PEE...I think the dog had the cat trapped up there and it had to go somewhere so it picks the dang bed!!! needless to say I slept on the couch...and I'm just thankful I had brought my own pillow!!!!!

Now it is raining so I am just hoping that the dogs can hold it until it slacks up so they can go out!!!

O and another thing - My tooth fell out again...at least it doesn't hurt so I'll just keep using the vasaline and hope my real fake tooth hurrys and gets here ;)

I should probably drink more WATER!!!!

The Effects Of Proper Hydration on Your Health

75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as much as 3%. One glass of water shuts down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a U-Washington study.

Lack of water is the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back, and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory,trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page.

Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%, and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer.

100th Post - YEAH! - THE PERFECT HUSBAND!

Jack wakes up with a huge hangover after attending his company's Christmas Party. Jack is not normally a drinker, but the drinks didn't taste like alcohol at all. He didn't even remember how he got home from the party.

As bad as he was feeling, he wondered if he did something wrong. Jack had to force himself to open his eyes, and the firstthing he sees is a couple of aspirins next to a glass ofwater on the side table. And, next to them, a single red rose! Jack sits up and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed. He looks around the room and sees that it is in perfect order, spotlessly clean. So is the rest of the house. He takes the aspirins, cringes when he sees a huge black eye staring back at him in the bathroom mirror. Then he notices a note hanging on the corner of the mirror written in red with little hearts on it and a kiss mark from his wife in lipstick:'Honey, breakfast is on the stove, I left early to get groceries to make you your favourite dinner tonight. I love you, darling! Love, Jillian'

He stumbles to the kitchen and sure enough, there is hot breakfast, steaming hot coffee and the morning newspaper. His son is also at the table, eating. Jack asks, 'Son... what happened last night? ''Well, you came home after 3 A.M., drunk and out of your mind.You fell over the coffee table and broke it, and then you puked in the hallway, and got that black eye when you ran into the door

'Confused, he asked his son, 'So, why is everything in such perfect order and so clean? I have a rose, and breakfast is on the table waiting for me??

'His son replies, 'Oh THAT!... Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when she tried to take your pants off, you screamed, 'Leave me alone, I'm married!!'
