My sweet sweet love affair...

I have a problem...that I am fully willing to admit. Here is the break down. I used to be a very light sleeper. I had the bedroom directly underneath my mother's. As her illness progressed, I slowly began to sleep lighter and lighter as I listened for any distress calls coming from the room above. It just happened. My body adapted to hear these things much like a mother hears her baby cry.

Over the past few years my body has slowly gone back to normal. In fact...when I sleep now I sleep quite heavily. I was reminded today by my dear sweet husband, of the "sleep talking" I did with him last night. Since I used to be a very light sleeper I never, ever make sounds myself. I do not snore, wheeze, chuffle, breathe loudly or make any noise of any sort. If I did, it would wake me up. Apparently last night my husband (who sometimes snores) was doing so. I got upset and asked him to stop. I guess he didn't. I'm sure I asked him very nicely again to roll over or something and then the dog made me mad. In this dream state I apparently ended up kicking my beloved and the dog off the bed and out the door.

This morning when I talked with him, he told me the details of my scolding. I don't remember a thing. Not one thing. I hope my man and the dog can learn to love this "other part" of me, and maybe someday these "sweet scoldings" will turn into "sweet nothings" instead.

Love ya Hon.

Some little things...

ACE

is so lucky to have me for his Mama.

Today I was thinking that he sure needed

a haircut.

So thinking myself to be economically savvy,

I thought I'd do the job myself...

Well, that was a BUST. Now we have a half shaved doggie, a burned out razor

and a rather FRUSTRATED mama.

I guess it's off to the Groomer for you Acie Boy.

On Another note,

Lyssie Lou (and her everbleeding heart) fell in love

with a baby rat that was supposed to be food for my

nephew's snake. Here is a pic of the rescue-attempt...

Yes I did say attempt...

YUCKY!!!!

Some fun with Smile*box

It's a dog's world!

So just a quick post today. It is our 32 month LID-aversary today. Do the numbers really mean anything to me anymore...Nah! Just another month waited for the most momentous occasion in my life to happen.

On another note. My littlest niece Avery came over this morning for a little visit while her mom went to the dentist. She was extremely excited to play with our dog. She just couldn't get it out of her head though that Buster is not Ace's name. So while Ace was excited to play with a new pal...he was quite confused about who this new guy Buster was. Kids are really funny!!
