I got to see my kids yesterday for about 5 unplanned hours. It was great! Joe and I took them to Kobey’s Swap Meet. There are an incredible amount of things for sale there. And the amount of available sharp object i.e. swords, knifes, machetes etc., is staggering. Thank goodness you can buy so many for so cheap! *hint of sarcasm there*
Joe and I are going to get a dog. Breed, age and color are unimportant as of yet. Our specs are: the right size for the house, right age to be left home alone during the day, without disease. Something smaller than a Golden Retriever and bigger than a rat. We will be canvassing the shelters soon to find the canine that is waiting for us to take him/her home. If anyone knows of anything we should know that we haven’t thought of, which might be quite a few things, feel free to let me know.
quick recap for the kids:
i LOVE you so MUCH! i can still hear you singing seal and jewel songs in the car. don’t drive your dad and mom insane with the whoopee-cushions. : )
about the dog….around here, the local Pet Smart’s do puppy and dog adoptions every Saturday morning. Might be something you want to look into.
Hope you are having a great week…*smiles*
thanx for the tip, evie!
btw: do you know of any cheap hotels up there? i’m always paying 78$ a night. is that just how much it is and i should quit whining??
Hey Leah,
Most of the hotels/motels I called were about that price. There is one by me, Premier Inn, 805-499-0755…their price for two people, one bed, is about $50 with AAA…only slightly higher without it. That place is about 5 minutes from me and about 20 minutes from where you would need to be. I hope that this helps.
Evie
thank you evie! that was a big help.
glad i could help…e-mail me and i’ll give you our phone number and such….would love to have you and Joe, or even just you over for dinner if you are up here…and, of course, the kids are more than welcome…*smiling*
