Fav's of the Week That Was

I am not going to lie when I say that this past week was not my favorite by any means. I am glad that there was enough good in it however to out weigh the bad! Tuesday, all of us at work were minding our own business when we were suddenly adopted by a mangy looking dog that wouldn't leave our sides.

She looks like a mix between a Old English Sheep dog and a Border Collie. She hung out with us in the greenhouse for the afternoon and since I figured she might be staying around, I named her Fran and fed her some pizza. She instantly got attached to all of us but we knew that we would have to make other arrangements for her. At the end of the day the humane society sounded like her best option but it was closed. I called around to try and find an owner that may have lost her but with the state she was in, it was no surprise to me that no one claimed responsibility for her. She is the greatest dog ever and thanks to Viki and Greg who lent her a room for the night, we were able to find her a permanent home. She now spends her days at the greenhouse with all of us and her nights and lunch hour with Nick, an employee. He was wanting a dog and so she came around at the exact perfect time and we are all very happy. Since she is Nick's her name has been changed to Clementine, and she is just darling!


Thursday was a great day! It was our monthly Carol Appreciation Day!! Marianne and I, and usually a guest, get together as cousins and have lunch in memory of her sister, my best friend and cousin, Carol. She's not dead, she just lives far away. This months CAD happen to fall on Carol's daughter Kalele's birthday. I can't believe that she is one already! She has gone from this:

to this:

She is the sweetest little girl ever and I miss them both, and Jason! I am excited to go visit them again sometime in Pennsylvania!
Friday the 13th was spent at a spooky movie, The Uninvited. I think that Tom and I did more laughing at it then jumping though. Ahhh... the teenage movies. It did have a great twist at the end though, you will never see it coming!
I forgot to mention that last Sunday was so great too, I went to Blackfoot to visit my sister Megan and her two kids Hunter and Abby.


We had a great time playing games! I love those two little monkeys but I am still seriously considering turning Megan and John into Supernanny because they ARE a handful! :)
So all in all it wasn't such an awful week. I am grateful for the people who helped make it as great as it was. Oh and one last thing, I finally figured out why I always have so much cat hair on my gym sweats...

....thanks for that Shanty!!
