Busy Bees

So, I didn't exactly get a chance to write my first little blog post yesterday, because I got home and went straight to bed. So, here I am writing this today, in the form of yesterday. I think you get the point. Tom had to work at six, which meant waking up before the sun even thinks about rising. It took me an hour after he left to really fall back asleep, and within a couple hours the monsters wanted to be released from the dens. I complied. I felt even more tired than I did at four in the morning at what was now 8 o'clock, so I fell back asleep, and woke up a couple hours later. It was one of those times where you wake up thinking, "WHAT YEAR IS IT?!" I got up and shuffled over to the computer so that I could order my textbooks for school. (I'm a little late on doing so considering I start thee sophomore year of college in 19 days, to be exact.) After realizing I would be spending $300 on books, I got ready and headed to the bank, so I could withdraw my soul.
Seriously though, why in the hell are you charging students so much for words? As if we don't struggle enough with the financial means of education.
Anyway, I stopped at Starbucks on the way there, and treated myself to a delicious strawberries and crème and ventured into a turkey Panini. If you've never tried one, YOU MUST. It was like a baby angel had created said lunch. I could eat one everyday if my budget allowed. It was one of the tastiest things I have ever had. And, that is the truth.
After returning home from two different banks, I paid my small (HA HA) amount of money to my school for, again, WORDS ON PAPER, and decided I needed a little pick-me-up. I gathered up the little kiddos, and headed for the car. It's quite glorious to see the excitement in the wag of their tails, and their happy little faces when they get in the car. Like, "OH WE GET TO LEAVE!? Will there be treats there? Can I play ball? DO I GET TO SNIFF BUTTS!?" Why yes, all of those things. It's kind of crazy that dogs know where they are when it's a familiar place, I swear their manners go up and out the window on the street before the dog park. I have them in my lap, and half way out the window by the time I get parked.





We didn't spend too much time there today, after playing with this golden Shepherd, they had pretty much had it. It was hot, and not too pleasant out. I kept looking for my pups only to find out they were laying under the table panting with their tongues two feet long, practically dragging on the ground. We left, and headed back home, waiting for dad to get back.
Promptly, at around three, Tom showed up and we decided to take the dogs swimming. We loaded up and headed to Lucky Peak. I had never been to the area we were in before, and it was a perfect little spot. Normally, the furbabies don't go out swimming by themselves, but this time I had a bomb proof plan. Drake will do ANYTHING to fetch, seriously, as a German Shorthair it's hard-wired into their brains to go for hours. With that said, we threw a toy in the water, and BAM! Our previously water shy pup was splashing away! (I'm not kidding though, I've never seen such a goofy swimmer before in my life. It's awkward, and messy, and completely adorable.)
After I had put my phone away, Sarge started getting in and swimming. Of course, that is what happens when my phone is all the way back on the grassy null under a towel. We were in awe at how good of a swimmer he is. Not messy, or splashy at all. He practically glides. It was a super fun time down there.
We left soon after. The water was cold and our skinny little Drake was shivering away. On our way back we stopped at the Crow's Inn, and ate a bucket of clams. It was very delicious, and the dogs were allowed on the patio, which I shared my fries with.



There is my handsome, who is grumpy with a tooth ache
and annoyed by the dozens of bees.
Once we returned home, we put the boys away and headed to a small pond to go fishing. I caught three blue gill and I'm sick of those things. That's all I've been catching this summer, and they're useless.
