The Sitting of the Puppies

I must admit, I'm rather ashamed of myself! I haven't written a blog post in awhile! This is not entirely my fault, but I'll get to that in second. Let's start off with what I have been up too lately.

I think the last time I wrote was right before I puppy sat for my friend Erin. She and her husband Brogan got to go house hunting in Little Rock, AR and I agreed to watch Loki for them. I have deemed him and Jack frenemies, so I had to keep Loki at his house, but between working, driving the dogs to the lake, and walking both of them (separately!) in the morning and at night, I was pretty beat and tired. And didn't get to do much else, so alas, no blogging. But Loki is a great little dog, and he and Jack play really well at the lake (just not in the house), so I had great fun doing that. Erin bought me some Starbucks blend coffee and a cupcake book (YAY!), so I'll do it again :) Unfortunately she leaves at the beginning of July. I'll definitely miss her when she leaves.

After that, I think I mainly have just been working. Which I absolutely hate. I've also been trying to finish a baby blanket for our friends Trent and Brandy, so that has kept my hands busy. I found time to squeeze in one cupcake making session with Nicole; we made Reese's Peanut Butter cupcakes and they were a big hit. It's amazing how even though I'm part time, I'm super busy. It's rather stressful, I don't understand how people do this with children. I will definitely not be working when we start having kids, I will not emotionally be able to handle that stress.

As I write this, I'm puppy sitting again. This time, though, Merlin and Jack are bestest buddies, and Merlin is our neighbor, so he's staying at the house with us. Jack didn't like it for the first 5 minutes or so, but since then he has adjusted. It's nice for me, though, since Merlin is entertaining him and they make each other tired. They're not very loud, either, which is great, unless they're fighting over the same toy. I have plenty of toys for both of them, but for seem reason they both always have to have the same one. And of course Jack isn't interested in a toy UNTIL Merlin has it. Puppies. It's so far been great, though. They walk well together on leashes, so later this evening I'll be able to walk them. Jack for some reason refuses to nap while Merlin is here, so they both crash at night. Super yay! I'll try to get a picture of them up soon, but Matt's friend has our memory card. Hopefully tomorrow!

Have a great Memorial Weekend, everyone!
