Whoa buddy, tonight is one of those nights.  It's 12:53 on a Saturday night/Sunday morning here in Gawg-ahhh and I am POWERING through my to do list.  So what does that mean?  You guys get a random, all over the place, not thought out post.  I've been trying to work on this other post.. but tonight it just is not happening.  So what has been happening?

Tonight I tackled some homework, sorted and put away all of the laundry, moved my purse stash to it's permanent location, picked up the closet, picked up the kitchen, picked up my husband's Capri Sun trash from his binge drinking tonight, got the trash ready to go out, put a bunch of stuff away and man oh man does it feel great. :)  So what if it's a Saturday night and this is what I do for fun..

My husband has been asleep since roughly 10.  Yes you guys we are 22 year olds.. with no children.  I have no excuse for this one.

Speaking of husband, he makes me smile ruuul big when he gets up with the dogs at the butt crack of morning so I can have an extra hour of sleep.  Oh, oh.. and when he gets excited to shop for my best friends babies.  But especially the other night when we had a heart to heart in the truck after a night of margaritas and he hugged me and reminded me of how much he loves me..

I'm blessed.

The boys are getting along great.  They wrestle, sleep, eat, repeat.  Klutch likes to wake up between 6 and 7:30.  Which I'm not the biggest fan of.. at all.  Then about 9 he is off in la-la-land so we get to crash back out for a couple more hours of sleep.  Piston is really warming up to his brother.  Which is good because wherever P is.. Klutch is right there near him.  They eat together out of the same dishes, run out to the back of the yard together, go for the same toy, you get it.. :)

We finally got a desk to replace the demolished one.  SO my office is coming together and I COULD NOT be happier.  I love me a good computer desk/working area.  Especially since school started Monday (bleh.. not fun, my friends).

Georgia is lovely and HOT. Supposed to be a "fall-like" cold front come through that drops us from 95 degree weather to low 80s.. where I come from, fall-like is 60-70 degree weather.. so I don't know what that crazy weatherman was talking about..

This NASCAR race in Virginia tonight is still going.. after rain delays and all that jazz.. it's now 1:02 in the morning.  What in the world man..

I'm not a fan of people that stand other people up.  I did some clothing purging when I was unpacking the closets.. listed some stuff on the base for sale page..and I've had way too many people cancel last minute or not come at all.  Where is the common decency people?

The other night I spent practically the whole night redoing my header.  Oooh, ahh. :)

I forgot how hard it is to have a puppy.. That little dude is into EVERYTHING.  And when he isn't getting into something he is sleeping.. or you are worrying about him going potty on the floor.  Man, I don't think I missed this stage with Piston whatsoever.

I hate when you are sitting on one side of the house and you hear something fall or a bang and you don't know what in the world it is.

Speaking of something falling.. Klutch is a genius.. his big thing is cords.  He saw one dangling off the bathroom counter and took off with it.. What was on the other end? A scentsy warmer.. little dude is lucky that did not crash into a thousand pieces on his head.. it did that about two feet behind his scampering butt when he realized something was coming down near him.

Well there are like 46 laps left in the race.. I feel like I should move all the dudes in my house to the bedroom to go to bed.. but lets be honest.. I'm loving this peace and quiet. ;)

Hope you all are having a more eventful Saturday night. :)

Please excuse any typos.. I'm starting to get tired and the need to go back and edit is lacking.


Always,

Whoa buddy, tonight is one of those nights.  It's 12:53 on a Saturday night/Sunday morning here in Gawg-ahhh and I am POWERING through m...

Pretty much in a nut shell what we have been doing for the last week or so could probably be considered living on the wild side.. Or better yet, the last 48 hours.

Last Sunday we threw the house together in time for my parents to roll into town.  Literally got everything done less than an hour before they pulled up.  The hard work and sweat to get all of the boxes unpacked was worth it though to see Piston get excited to see his grandparents again.  He acted like he hadn't seen them in well a month... haha.

Literally sitting in the recliner with my Mom.

That launched us into a busy week of entertaining.  We went downtown, to museums, to the river, to South Carolina and just about everything in between.  Rob worked the majority of the days, so I was head tour guide.  Which was interesting to say the least since I am not quite a genius with getting around quite yet. :)

On Thursday we checked Piston into doggie boarding and drove to Atlanta.  Two days and two nights of exploring that city.  Which has quickly become one of my absolute favorite big cities I've visited.  We went to the World of Coca Cola, the Georgia Aquarium, CNN World Headquarters and the DragonConn parade.  Y'all are jealous huh?  It was a busy weekend in ATL with college football games at the dome and the DragonConn (comic books, video games and what not) Convention going on.

Saturday afternoon we drove back and decided on a quick pitstop at Walmart.. which changed our life...

Some guy was sitting in the parking lot with puppies for free.  I couldn't resist.  We've been looking at and exploring the idea of getting another dog for my little love bug Piston to grow up with.  So what do you know.. we walked away with a little dude to add to our family.  Friends.. meet Klutch.  He's a boxer mix.  Little bundle of furry energy.
Unfortunately due to the fact that he was a Walmart parking lot puppy we don't believe he has had the best first 6 weeks of life.  We have already treated him for fleas and our poor little dude has round worms that we are also treating him for (worms in his tummy.. typical in puppies.  Better than having heart worms.. but still serious stuff if left untreated).  At church this morning I couldn't help but smile when the priest mentioned that you should love orphans.. less than 12 hours after our little orphan walked into our life.. and man oh man does he have my heart strings tugging hard.
As for Piston.. I think he will like him a whole lot more when he is not little and fragile like he currently is.  Until then he is learning to share (a hard concept when every toy is your favorite...) and helps me entertain him.  Thank goodness!

Klutch is currently using our big oversized tub as his kennel.  So 6:30 this morning.. he decided he was awake.  For anyone who has read this blog for awhile.. you know how that goes over with me.  Not well.  Piston was right there with me at 6:30.. up entertaining him.  He's going to be a great big brother.  Klutch loves him.. follows him everywhere and does just what his brother does!
Late this morning my parents left to head back to KC (drive safe and see y'all in a few months!  Thanks for coming down to see us!!! Love you!!!) Now I am left with cleaning, laundry and school.. which starts tomorrow.  Yuck.


Hope you and yours have had a safe Labor Day weekend!

Always,
Amanda
