Those Days

You know those days when you have nothing going on, nothing to write about, nothing to dwell on? I've had several of those days lately. Things have been flowing together smoothly. Days are passing. I can't believe it's Tuesday.

My gorgeous sister-in-law was blessed by the blue-box Tiffany gods and got engaged (giant sparkler included) last Friday. My eye was twitching with the urges I was fighting back to snatch her ring and run.

Emma is crawling like a mad woman. I glance away for a few moments and find her in the most random of locations. On top of that, she's desperately trying to pull herself up on whatever. She's not quite strong enough yet - Thank God. I don't think I could handle her actually running everywhere just yet. My sanity would be completely shot, true story.

We've been actively looking for a dog to finally seal off the wound left when Dolly passed away. It's been hard trying to find the right match for our little family, and the process has been painstakingly slow. However, without having met her officially yet (and fingers crossed, we will as of this Friday) we believe we've found the unfortunate soul who needs a permanent family to love her. Her current name is Roxy (we'd keep it, but I had a dog growing up named Roxy. It seems weird to keep the same name, doesn't it?!) and she is located in Libertyville.

And, obviously, fall is here and practically over already. I've officially purchased my first Christmas present, and have a horrible itch to start putting up Christmas decorations. Please tell me I'm not alone.
