i'm back in texas. whew. i'm still sweaty and hot but am going to jump into the shower asap. sure was glad to see my little house. i had some good help while up there. and some good laughs. got rid of some stuff. that sure felt good. this area is the mecca of yardsales and i brought some of my nicer stuff that i don't want and my neighbors and i are going to have a sale...when it gets cooler.

the cats were like "where the hell have you been?".....all that meowing and tail waving....

i did not unload one article, item. we're having an unloading party tomorrow p.m. the neighborhood is geared up for it.

one negative note. my neighbors to the east, not the friendly ones, had two dogs when i left. they now have five. and they don't take good care of the two. they just pour their food out on the ground and never, ever pet them. i pet them a lot because i feel so sorry for them. and they got two more puppies and a grown dog. i'm putting up something to block my view of their yard. i'm too soft hearted for that.

lightbulb moment! i bet there is a city ordinance on the number of dogs you can have!!!!! i'm going to check. if they don't pet and love two, i seriously doubt that they will care for 5 properly. end of rant. xoxox pat
