Busy, busy, busy

Ok, life hasn't been grand, but it's cost me many of them... My retaining wall in front has been replaced - good news, it looks amazing!! The contractor that put it in/up is a great guy who's honest/reliable, etc.. He is, however, not cheap, but I guess you get what you pay for. The wall changes the look of the whole house, it's pretty cool actually. Next we moved on to a much larger fence, it's now 6 feet instead of 3 (which Apache would just scoff at). Again, it looks great, sturdy, secure, etc., but not cheap. Oh yeah, did I mention I accidentally had my freezer unplugged, so I lost all of Apache's rabbit (not to mention my food) & had a horrid mess to clean up and cart away. So I've been working A LOT, at anything I can fit in to my schedule. On top of that, I had the benefit of a infection in my jaw, resulting in my needing to have a tooth pulled - I bet you all envy me! Needless to say, the dogs have been great through this whole thing, sticking close to my side in this unbearable heat & wondering why I haven't been that much fun. That being said, the dogs are doing well, I think I will be sending an entry in for Chip to attempt to get his CD...but I'm saving those details for another day.

Hope everyone else is doing better than I have been (wouldn't take much, would it)
