We end up spending crazy money on Rod's work stuff sometimes, and that's my only (very small) savior. Tho Rod had a small flashlight (palm-sized) that cost about $80, lost it, then found one that would have worked as well at WalMart for $25!!! Insanity.<BR/>Oh - and of course, Squeak is precious - great pics!!!Kristin, Rod, and Victoriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00966895530567190550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16918275.post-86351279945761219062007-12-18T12:07:00.000-08:002007-12-18T12:07:00.000-08:00Such a cutie. sorry about the flashlight thing.

I am also struggling with getting rid of the weight - I hate to admit it but I haven't lost ANY since my daughter was about 2 months old and now she's almost 6 months (sigh). I am also binging on cookies and it seems like such a downward spiral. I feel fat so I eat cookies - I can guess where this is going.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I also am being inundated with inlaws but at least not until a couple of days after Christmas (and I don't get along with them very well). My MIL will be trying to wrestle the baby away from whoever is holding her and my FIL will bray at all of us (he's hard of hearing but will *NOT* get a hearing aid for some bizarre reason).<BR/><BR/>Ho-ho, humbug but there are good days as well. I am looking forward to Christmas and my son is excited about it (even though he's been home sick for the last few days).<BR/><BR/>And about the whole flashlight thing - hum... I have no suggestions but totally understand your need for the fence.<BR/><BR/>Oh lord DinoD, just shut up.<BR/><BR/>Oh and kisses and hugs to Ernie (good boy, good boy).<BR/><BR/>DinoDDinosaurDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16985959777790987938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16918275.post-68761884016754195302007-12-18T06:37:00.000-08:002007-12-18T06:37:00.000-08:00Considering you have a heard of dogs that I'm sure...Considering you have a heard of dogs that I'm sure you would love to let outsidea time or two, the fence is a priority.

If it is something that would be used on a daily basis then maybe I would break down and get it for him...if it is for the occasional worm hunt any old cheapo light will do. <BR/><BR/>I am in charge of the finances here too and BigD doesnt quite get it that his check only covers the house payment and a few misc things. I took over when he was so bad about paying the bills that every month we were paying late fees that amounted to a chunk of change! UGH!<BR/><BR/>Poor Ernie...his house has been taken over by a baby :) I think he deserves an extra treat in his stocking this year.OHNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03856294075428012923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16918275.post-65400876858090854022007-12-18T01:05:00.000-08:002007-12-18T01:05:00.000-08:00He's gorgeous!He's gorgeous!Carohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08210823139583056706noreply@blogger.com
