Lately

Until we bought new furniture, we (stupidly) allowed this to happen...

We leave him inside alone often when it is really cold outside.  He has been doing great for several years now.  We got to the point that we wouldn't even move pillows or anything.  He really didn't bother anything.  Until last night.  We decided to leave him inside for the first time since his chair went to the dump and the other furniture arrived.  We thought if we blocked the sofa and put his bed out for him that he would be great like he has been.  WRONG!

He was standing on the sofa when I walked in the door and then I saw feathers.  I thought our sofa was a goner.  Luck for him and for us - he was just taking a nap on the sofa after having played with my new insert pillow that is waiting on its backordered case.  I had a crappy day yesterday - if it could go wrong or break, it did.  I mean really, y'all, this crazy woman at Walmart came within an inch of hitting me with the motorized shopping cart because she "couldn't get my finger off the gas thingy."  My desk printer stopped working, the postage meter wouldn't work for me, the color copier wouldn't scan, the black and white copier that became my printer jammed...  So at this point I just laughed.  After throwing the dog outside in the 20 degree weather.  He figured it out quickly.  He stayed inside this morning and was a very good boy.

Next - does anyone else take a girls weekend trip and end up sitting on a pull out sofa eating leftovers from their baby shower while watching "mindless" tv in their pj's at 7pm???

No??  Really??  Y'all should try it sometime.  I had a bottle of water and Megan had a bottle of wine...it was perfect.  Christie went to dinner with some other friends so she missed this part of our weekend...she was jealous.

Finally - when in need of a place to store hats in a nursery - just hang a deer head - it makes a great hat rack...

Yep - the boy is going to grow up with golf clubs and a deer in his room.  If you expect your child to be comfortable at the country club and the hunting club - you better start him early!
