Recent happenings
Took Dylan to fireworks on Friday. Seven Hills had their home days, so we walked around all the food, games, and rides. Dylan loves people watching. They had a fire truck that you could get into, but I knew once I took him out of his push buggy, he’d never get back in – so I didn’t let him out right away. When we went back, the fire truck was gone. I might have to hit up Crystal’s brother-in-law for a tour! Anyway, I got off track. Dylan really liked the fireworks too. We went a little bit away from them, not as far as we did for Independence’s, but far enough you couldn’t feel them in your stomach. He kept pointing at them – soo cute!
Just a public service announcement – if you are in a water hose fight with your husband and you have possession of the hose – do not be fooled by his evil ways. If he complains – stop my cell phone is in my pocket and my hand is too wet to get it out – do NOT approach said husband. He will, in fact, take the hose and turn it on you.
I am spending way too much time on facebook lately
Mark was not effected by the FE lay offs – thanks for your prayers
Blarney really needs to go to the groomers.
File this under the mental file of dumb ass. I have not locked my car since we moved into this house. I feel pretty safe here and there really is nothing in my car worth stealing. Mark tells me that #1 my car is worth stealing so I should lock it. He also tells me that #2 the garage door opener is in my car and there is something worth stealing in the garage or the house which is attached to the garage. Good point, honey – I’ve been locking it since then.
I started Blarney at Doggie Day Care today. It’s the greatest thing ever!!! Laura got me a gift certificate to there as a thank you for watching Dylan. Here’s a link to his pictures. For those of you who haven’t met him – he’s 6681, 6699, 6722 (and a few others). He passed his assessment test 100% and got a very good daily report card. THANK YOU LAURA - YOU ARE THE BESTEST SISTER IN THE WORLD. I WUV WU WOWA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Husband Store
A store that sells new husbands has opened in New York City, where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates:
You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!
So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads:
Floor 1 - These men Have Jobs
She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign reads:
Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.
'That's nice,' she think, 'but I want more.'
So she continues upward. The third floor sign reads:
Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking.
'Wow,' she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.
She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework.
'Oh, mercy me!' she exclaims, 'I can hardly stand it!'
Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak.
She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor, where the sign reads:
Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.
PLEASE NOTE: To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opened a New Wives store just across the street.
The first floor has wives that love sex.
The second floor has wives that love sex and have money and like beer.
The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors have never been visited.
P.S. This is a joke - get it? funny...ha ha

Update - random thoughts
- Went to a birthday party for one of my good friend’s husbands.
- Got some very exciting news (two pieces of good news actually) from another good friend.
- Got some more good news (again-two pieces) from another friend.
- Went to the Indians game on Friday with all my friends. They lost and I barely saw 5 pitches thrown, but the fireworks afterwards were great.
- Had a playdate with Peyton and Gracie. Dylan was equally excited to play with Gracie as he was Peyton. Peyton showed me each and every of his toys, bringing each one of them out. I truly think he has enough cars and trains to go around the world once. He also has a ton of dinosaur toys and calls each of them by their proper name.
- Had a great family cookout (yes, it was two weeks late, but who cares) for Fourth of July with my family.
- Got to see several cities fireworks – Brookpark was the best so far. Seven Hills is next week
- Marie has no “overdue” items on her theknot.com wedding checklist
- Blarney went to the vet and was given a complete healthy diagnosis.
- I haven’t been on the motorcycle yet (in fact not sure I was on it last year once) but Mark’s been riding to work daily. He loves it, especially since he has such a long drive.
- Took Dylan to fireworks on July 3rd. We got there about 5 minutes before they started and sat pretty far away in case he freaked out. He had a good time – loved people watching too. That’s my godson!
- I’m still sick of watering my flowers, but almost all the new seedlings I planted in our new bed outside the shed are growing and blooming. I love the bleeding heart. The deer haven’t found those yet, but have found the rest of our yard. Why can’t they eat the weeds?? My butterfly (aka bee) bush is about 5 feet long and the deer don’t eat it.
- Laura signed Dylan up for Gymboree. The membership is for the child, so anyone can take him. I hope to take him one day soon and will post pics. Laura said he likes it.
- Took Dylan out to Aurora Farms for a Corvette show dad was in. Dylan liked watching the ducks most of all.
- Got my chipped front tooth fixed
