Winners and Second Chances

First –

Can we talk about this?

This was what I was up against Thursday afternoon.

I was working from home, but then the power (and internet) went out, so I had to take off the last few hours of the day.

Since I couldn’t do anything else, Maggie and I sat on the porch and listened to the baseball game going on at the school across the yard.

The birds and squirrels in the yard were driving her crazy – she was running around the porch, whining at the door, but mostly doing this:

Yup. That’s her. Trying to fit through the cat door, but she can’t. So she’d just lay there, with her head and front paws outside the porch and the rest of her inside.

How in the world do I get anything done with this dog in the house with me? Sometimes, I have no idea.

As for me…I had a slow start to my Monday.

I was at my parent’s house this weekend for a weekend filled to the brim with fun: a bridesmaid’s dress fitting and a baby shower for one of my closest friends. I kind of feel like I never sat down this weekend – it went by so fast!

And to make things even more fun, our internet still wasn’t working earlier today, so my work day was a little frustrating and not normal at all, but things worked out.

But I’ve got good news tonight!

1. It seems as though the internet is working (for now).

2. Monday workday is over!

3. HIMYM is on tonight.

  8. Haha it definitely sounds like you’ve had an interesting couple of days to say the least! Maggie is adorable! My dog likes to sit like that with her head rested against random things as well. Maybe it’s a canine thing. It looks so uncomfortable.
