Wally

We had a pool visitor last week named Wally. Joey LOVED him, but we had to turn him loose.
Thank God. He was cute, but I'm not in to keeping reptiles in my house...yet. I'm sure in a few years I'm going to have to get over this - especially since we've already pulled Wally out of the pool, and just yesterday, we had 8 frogs in the pool. Joey is going to be bringing them inside, begging for an aquarium. I'm going to have to be ready......

"Dirt Poor"

"You are the proud owner of a big ole pile of dirt."

These were the words spoken to me by my husband this morning when he woke me up.

"What??"

"The dirt people came today and left us a big pile of dirt on the driveway for the dog pen."

"Oh gooooood....." I said as i rolled over.

"And I'm robbing your purse of $34 to pay the dirt people. Hope you don't mind."

"You have to PAY FOR DIRT?" I thought. What the hell kind of deal is that?! I guess I knew that. Back when we were building our home in the midwest, they hauled away a bunch of black dirt, and when we needed it for filling in our landscaping, they tried to sell it back us. What the heck?

Ah well. At least we now have $34 more worth of fishing worms. Not that I'm going fishing any time soon.....
