Murphy's law kinda morning with a happy evening!

Neither the girls or I slept very good Saturday night and woke up pretty grumpy. Our computer had gotten a virus and Chris has been in the process of trying to burn all of my pictures to disk so he can reformat our computer. Since the girls were born, I've become a picture freak and have taken a LOT of pics. So Sunday morning I was trying to go through them and get them organized to make it easier on him. The girls were cranky and it just wasn't a great morning. About noon we headed outside to let the sunshine on our mood.

Our 12 year old pitbull, Hula had torn her ACL about 6 weeks ago and has been hopping around since. There isn't much that can be done for her, the vet said to just let it heal on it's own. Since the weather has been nice, she's wanted to sleep outside so as soon as we went out I looked for her. She's kind of made a nest for herself in our garage but wasn't there. I checked all of her normal sunbathing spots and could not find here anywhere. I called her name and still could not find here. Chris came out and we started searching the woods around our house. I was afraid that she had stumbled somewhere and was stuck. I also told Pie and Sam that they had better NEVER, EVER make me search the woods looking for them! We didn't find her behind our house so I looked down the hill behind our garden again and spotted her laying in trees. I wasn't sure if she was sleeping or worse but Chris headed down there to get her. When he got close enough to him she raised up her head and looked at him like nothing was wrong. He carried her up and put her inside the house. I fed her 3 hot dogs and gave her lots of hugs and kisses. I was so glad that we found her. I know she wont be with us too much longer, her health has gone down hill so fast but I just wasn't ready for her to be gone.

Chris asked where the buckle thingy was for Pie's car seat so he could put them back in his truck and for the life of me I could not find it a.n.y.w.h.e.r.e. So he and Pie headed off to Bangor to find another one. Our truck has the hooks in the middle but not on the sides so that's where Pie rode. Sam and i stayed home, hoping to take a nap. (No such luck) He came home about 2 hours later with 2 latch thingys, a swimming pool and a nice bench swing for me! I need to send him off shopping more often! ;)

Mom and dad came over for supper. Chris bbq'd pork ribs and I fried potatoes and cooked cauliflower and baked bread sticks and lemon bars for dessert.

The girls were worn out and went to bed pretty easy after reading a few books before bed. After almost 3 weeks, Chris and I got to spend a little bit of time just the two of us. I'm so glad he's home!
