Busy, Busy, Busy

Once again I find myself writing about being a blogger slacker. It is true that I have let the blogging slip again. I guess I will say I have been really busy. Busy doing what you may ask? Well, I could say I have been out enjoying the beautiful fall weather but we all know that wouldn't be. Plus I live in the desert where October in known for the glamours wind that kicks up the sand for a pleasant present for one's senses. I could claim I have been busy in the kitchen preparing many yummy fall treats. Pumpkin cookie anyone? But again we all know that wouldn't be true.

What I have been doing is hanging out around the house and a few random events. Last weekend was the annual Double D Halloween/Birthday party. Good times to see everyone dressed up and to feel the success of your own costume. I felt my "Bright and Shiny" impersonation was spot on. Unfortunately, I feel too many people do not know the joy of Bubble Boy. Please spread the word that Bubble Boy is an awesome movie!

The I had the Lose a Pound with Your Hound Dog Walk. That was a good day and I was actually outside for that one. The event had a great turnout and raised a lot of money for Heaven Can Wait. Money for the pooches is always to quote my friend Martha "a good thing."

I did have an indirect kitchen experience when I can home to discover my always thoughtful dogs had tried to make pancakes for me. They got as far as getting the box of mix out of the cabinet, opening the box and getting it all over the carpet and sofa. FYI if you ever need glue and only have pancake mix all you need is some dog slobber and it is as good as Elmer's.

And finally Brian was home for a brief visit. Always a bright spot in an otherwise dull time. It was his birthday so that was fun. We had a wonderful night amongst the Hooter girls, a few trys at the penny slots and then a movie. Needless to say we did not hit MegaBucks but wings Daytona Style are good. Sadly the visit was a short one. I'm hoping November will allow him to slow down a little and spend more time with me and the boys!
