The Good, The Bad and The Ugly...
ThursdayThe Good: NO ZOO! I was dreading that with no allergy meds
The Bad: Big storm that night and as usual, when I hear a loud crack that sounds like lightning, its a tree falling instead. Its a shame actually, it was a beautiful old Oak Tree and now it will have to be butchered a bit to get it to look normal again.
.

The Ugly: We have to clean that up.
FridayThe Good: I get to take my allergy meds today! Joe came home early and helped me clean the house, my house was spotless, thats always a good feeling. Dave even came over and ordered pizza for dinner while we cleaned and helped watch the girls. Purdy good stuff.
The Bad: The devil shows up today.
The Ugly: Allergy testing isnt pretty. 51 needle pricks on my back to let 51 allergens seep into my flesh just to see what Im allergic to. 10 minutes of pure hell, just to see what "pops" up. I dunno bout you, but "pops" is an awful nice word for this...its totally gross, b ut I thought Id share anyhow so you can suffer with me.
SaturdayThe Good: When I woke up I sat out on the deck for a bit with my coffee and laptop. It was so

quiet and cool out. Birthday party for the girls. I love my little hooligans. Kim and Chris and the kids came, which was nice cause it had been awhile since Id seen them. The family came over we grilled out, had cake and ice cream, built a bonfire and made smores. Life is good.
I have deep and abiding sympathy... having also married into the Family of Lucifer.
People ask me all the time how Willem turned out so well from such a family. I remind them that (1) I have put a LOT of time and effort into training him since I got him - we've known each other 9 years and been married for 5, and he is way more human now than he was a decade ago, and (2) he's adopted.
