We slept kind of late, still recovering from the Chiefs game, then started moving. Kevin was watching typical Kevin stuff (High Noon, etc) and I decided to head out to see what Dad was up to. Kevin and Hawkeye followed shortly behind me and the girls, and we found dad out mowing the pasture. After visiting him a few minutes, we decided it was time to go to Walmart, and Monica stayed at Mom's to watch Dukes of Hazzard with Arick.
At Walmart, we bought groceries, hair color for the girls, paint to finish the living room, wiper blades for my car, and other necessities. Wow, that store sucks the money right out of this family. Kevin also bought a new camera card for me. It's a 1GB, just like my old one. I won't go bigger than that. If the card holds too much, you get lazy about pulling the pictures off, then a card problem causes good stuff to become lost. I will still try to fix the other one, so I have a spare.
Later tonight, the girls and I will pack for the concert. We can take a 1 gallon ZipLoc bag of food, each. That's a lot of food! Plus, we can take 1 sealed bottle of water each. That will help us not spend too much money there. Monica called one of the DJ's this morning, and Natalie called one this afternoon. They're trying to see who all will be there tomorrow. Most of them are going, from the sounds of it.
I gave Hawkeye a flea bath today, and colored the girls hair. Hawkeye got fleas from Mom's neighbor dogs last weekend. The girls had dark roots. Yeah, they're kind of young for hair coloring, but hair is something I let them make their own decisions about. It will always grow out. Tattoos and body piercings are one thing, hair is another: it's a temporary change. They are both on blonde kicks. Pictures later.
Well, I guess that's it for now. Enjoy the cooler weather, peeps. We DID turn the a/c back on this afternoon, but it was niceto have fresh air overnight and half the day. This house needs aired out. I need to go beg Hawkeye's forgiveness now. He hates baths, and holds a grudge for hours. Maybe a doggie treat would help...but I doubt it.

My dog hates baths, too. He's so petrified of water, he'll start shaking as soon as he hears the bath running - even if it's not for him. The other dumb dog though? He jumps right in - uh...even if its not for him. Heh...

Stopping in to say Hi and let you know I read up on the last few days. Hope you all have some good weather this week (cooler)--we are still hot and in a drought but at least I think the 100's have gone.
Glad you had a good time at the game.

I just wanted to let you know that it took me a bit, but I did see the comment you left in your mom's blog about the router, and the problems heat can cause. Our problems have significantly decreased since I took measures to keep it cool! thanks!
