This and That...

I'm bored.  I really, really hate being bored.  Business is slow and I shouldn't be complaining about that because I do have a job and they are still paying me good money to sit here and be bored but it's really hard to sit here and be bored all friggin day long.  Run-on sentence anyone?  There are only so many facebook games that one can play to fill an 8 hour day...  I am trying not to worry about this little bit of slump that we are currently in but I am losing sleep over it.  Or it could be that I'm losing sleep over the fact that I do absolutely nothing all day long and then go home and fret about doing nothing all day long and then I can't sleep all night long.  Now if this wasn't a boring paragraph I don't know what it was...

So last time I left you with a little bit of a mystery to solve and that was an epic fail.  No I have not taken in any more dogs to my abode but I would like to introduce you to my (hopefully, fingers and toes crossed) future grand-dog daughters...

This is Bella:

Bella

Bella belongs to C1's intended.  Now I say intended because they are not 'officially' engaged and I don't know when exactly that will happen, BUT, they have had the 'talk'.  You know, the 'would you marry me if I asked you to marry me' and 'let's buy a house together' sort of talk.  Now C1 is an odd duck and after dating M1 for 2 years and shacking up with her for almost 1 year, the thought never crossed his mind to have such a talk with the poor girl.  However he did have this talk with his MOTHER.  He seemed a little shocked that I suggested he have the talk with M1 because he didn't think that was 'how it was done.'  I do often wonder how he managed to graduate college, really I do?  I guess after much prodding from me, they finally had the talk and they are in agreement that they want to marry and live happily ever after so I will become the grandmother of another D.O.G.  Just my luck.

This is Zoey:

Zoey

Zoey belongs to M2, C2's intended.  They are also not 'officially' engaged but have had the talk and openly discuss the plans of marriage.  No ring on the finger yet and if I didn't think it would bring bad luck I'd actually go buy it myself before C2 screws this whole deal up.  I like this girl and for some odd reason she likes C2, that makes her a keeper.  Hopefully he can keep her and then I will once again become the proud grandmother of another D.O.G.  Two for the price of what?

C3 is still dating his little girlfriend, which BTW, guess what letter her name starts with???  There's something about this girl I don't like, can't put my finger on it but Hubby and the boys all swear it's just because C3 is my baby boy.  But I don't know, I'm a pretty good judge of character and my first impressions are usually dead on, and unfortunately for M3 my first impression was... skank... Time will tell.

Finally after about two months, the hubs and I came to an agreement on what flooring should replace the perfectly good flooring that was already in place but was all destroyed in the Destruction 2010 project.  Bitter?  Yes, yes I am.  How long will I be bitter?  Haven't decided yet.  So today when I get home there will be new wood flooring covering the entire BIG OPEN ROOM with the exception of the kitchen because I did actually get my way on one thing.  The tile, practically brand new tile I might add, will remain in the kitchen area.  I guess that is what we came to an agreement on, he gets his way as always and I get the smidgen ass whoopin of a decision.  He made a comment last night that "hopefully this was the very last remodel job we will ever have to do."  To which I turned and gave him the evil eye and responded, "Yes, it will, unless you plan on being buried under the backyard deck that you love so much."  Anyone want to place bets on this one???

Yes you have just read the ramblings of a very BORED woman...
