Well I guess I was lying when I said I'd blog more while Matt was working nights. In my defense he only worked nights for two weeks. And I didn't really have time because I work all the time as well. Today is my only day off and then I get to work a week straight again... yay. Just gotta keep thinking about my Ford Escape :) which luckily Matt and I are picking up a little side job together because otherwise my job actually wouldn't get me my car without us being even more broke than we already are. I do feel bad though because Matt works way too hard and way too much.
I don't remember what I said in my last blog but I'm sure nothing has changed since then. My mom came up last Saturday and that was fun but I wish she could have stayed longer! But she's going to come back up sometime again and we're going to go to the Glensheen! And we've been planning our trip for next month (eek, I can say it's next month now!) though it's really hard to think about while we're both working so much and don't really have money. It makes me feel like we should be using that vacation money on bills and loans.... but if we don't go now God knows we'll never have a 'honeymoon'. Finding a place for the dogs is going to take a third of our trip money anyway. I love our dogs, but boy I never thought they'd cost us like half a grand for a week and a half. I know in the long run it'll be better for me and them. Then we don't need to stress out Matt's parents with the girls and the girls don't need to deal with meanie Julius and I don't have to stress about them with Julius. Where we're going to board them they'll get seperate playtime where they can play together without other dogs so I won't need to worry about Smiler getting eaten or Penny killing another dog. But I'm still stressed. I wonder if they'd get annoyed with me if I called everyday to see how they are?
I'm not sure if I mentioned my foxes in my last post or not but I saw Roger and his mom again in the field and it was soooooo cute! Roger was running around crazily all over the field, just enjoying the freshly mowed grass while his mom sat under a tree and watched. I talked to them and they really weren't too worried so hopefully we're making progress. We left a little piece of salmon out on the driveway two nights ago (it was for Blacky, but I get one of the foxes ate it) and it was gone yesterday morning and now I just want to put more out! But that would get too expensive :(. And I know that they walk right by our fence when they come and go because every morning the girls are out there sniffing along that part of the fence. It's almost like Penny doesn't actually fail as a hound dog!
That's really all I have to say. I have to go find something to occupy myself til Matt gets home and we can go to the carnival :)
