Busy month!

I've been slack posting, but this month has been crazy. Here's a quick summary from mid August till now.



I met Coco, Jessica's new adorable puppy at Jessica's new apartment in Charlotte.

awww



Remus met Winston

They both jumped at the same time :)




Emma met Remus. I think she likes him, muahahaha

Precious :) Rebecca and Emma visited for two days, it was great!



baby shower! Christine is my "ex" partner. She's expecting a little boy.

Gangs all here! I'm in the back next to Stacey, Sarah (short girl half way in front of me) helped host the shower. Christine's in front of Stacey, and then the back row from Stacey is Tina, Melinda, and Leila. Beverly is front and center, and Bill's (the daddy) mom is the blond middle aged woman and the two black ladies are Christine's stepmom and I think step sister.

This past Saturday Leslie had an extra ticket to the UNC v UVA game at Chapel Hill. I had a blast (football is a lot more interesting now that I understand more of the rules) and even bought myself a t-shirt. Sorry Nick, I've never been a huge fan of UVA....


At the end of this month I have a Passion Party and then I think I get a little bit of a much needed break before heading back to VA to visit Grandma and have some more Emma time :) I'm staying busy, I really miss Brian, and I have a LOT of scrapbooking to do to get this year done...sigh.

Bad blog site

Well it seems this website ate my last post. I'm a little miffed. Not that it was an extraordinary post, but still, I can't remember what I posted word for word. I guess I'll do a re-cap.

Remus is being bad. Very disobedient/rebellious. I think it's partially because Brian is gone so Remus has more time left completely by himself, also he's learning bad habits from the neighbors dog who just runs amok, plus his hormones are hitting with a vengence and our trainer warned us about Remus going through a "brain dump" right around this time. So, my lonely, angst ridden, rebellious teenage monster is turning into quite the nuisance.

In an attempt to allow Remus a chance to win himself back into my good graces I took him running with me at Raven Rock. We had a blast. His lope is the perfect pace, pushing my stride just enough to keep me moving but no faster. After 2.5 miles, my rebellious teenage monster was regarding me with a happy exhausted doggie grin, tongue lolling out the side, panting but not overheated. On the way home I realize it's not just Remus who needs to get back into my good graces, but maybe a little bit me getting back into his good graces. I have to leave him outside when I go to work, but perhaps a little more puppy time when I get off wouldn't be remiss. We still might call for the trainer to help, but I had forgotten how much I love the furry doofball with being so busy these past couple of weeks.


That was the gist of the last post, but I'll tag this on the end.
Look at how long his hair had gotten! Shaggy man. He'll match Remus if he keeps letting it grow out... I miss him. For right now we've decided to stay in the military, Brian is getting his Green to Gold packet together to go officer. Hopefully he'll be happier as an officer than as enlisted, and the Masters will be nice to have against whenever he gets out. He surprised me yesterday with four commplete dinner sets of the polish pottery that I fell in love with this summer. So pretty! The pattern is just HAPPY and I love it. I love him too, haha. Thats all for now!
