I was offered a Job.....
I have been offered a job....nothing big just part time 15-20 hours a week. I have been on the fence deciding if i should or Not. It will take away some of my weekends but not every weekend so I still will be available to be with my family. The bad thing is that Brad just started to have Saturdays off so he could be at the lake with us all weekend but the lake is coming to an end in October...so this means we will be home. and Brad will be with the girls IF I decide to take this job. So we will miss out on Saturdays to do anything as a family... The woman who offered me the job said she would need me to start in October. ( again we will be closing up camp then) so I am thinking Hummmm this may just work for me! Do you notice I have not mentioned what I will be doing for a job?? lol I am going to keep you in suspense for a little longer..... I talked with my Mother In Law about this job and she said that I can adjust my work schedule that I have with Their family Business if i need to or cut back on hours or whatever works for me. The Funeral home I work for is random..I only go when he needs me..it is not an everyday job...sometimes weeks go by with out me going there at all.....So if I did need to go to the funeral home I can go pretty much anytime he gives me a few days notice before a funeral and it usually only takes me less than an hour to work on them ( for those of you who don't know I work at a funeral home doing the hair and make-up on the deceased) ..No it doesn't freak me out and yes I love doing it! I would do it full time if I could! anyway back to my job offer.........she wants to start training me.....she will start me out at $10 and hour.....it is just under 5 miles away from my house.....and it involves PUGS! you ready! ..............

It is a Kennel that boards dogs, Daycare, Grooming and the best part is......She is PUG Breeder and they are SHOW PUGS...3 of them are Champion Pugs! I went to visit her today and she introduced me to her 7 pugs ages 6 months-14years old. I was in HEAVEN!! They put an addition on her home for the pugs it is a BEAUTIFUL room all for the pugs Play structures, beds with their names.....with an open door that allows then to run in their fenced in yard. I was smothered with 6 pug! all over me giving me kisses and snorts and Pug Spray....the old timer with is 14 didn't care that I was there he slept in his cozy bed made of wrought iron and wicker....pampered ! so I will be around pugs day in and day out.....I will also be taking care of the Dogs at the kennel for boarding...such as food& water, Cleaning their area...go for walks....and be at the desk answering the phone, schedule appointments Welcoming the dogs and owners as they come in........This Job is a peice of cake...brainless! I just love animals..PUGS and I know I would love it. a nice change. but am i ready to work weekends? this is what I am on the fence about...I have to be there at 7am-12pm then I get to skip home then go back for 2pm-6pm like I said it is not going to be every weekend...but I will have to work the first week of October and the 3rd week all week...........I just don't want to over do it. I don't want to get worn out doing to much...so a lot to think about. I will let you know what I decide.

School Days.............Back in 1992
Okay this is me when I was 18 ...This is my High School Graduation picture in 1992. Brad still tells me to grow my hair long and perm it like I did back then....H~E~L~L~O! this was me 15 years ago.....I am not going back to the BIG MALL BANGS and SPIRAL PERMS....I tell him. I am all for the low maintenance hair thing now. sorry for the water stained photo. We rented a house that the basement flooded all the time so a lot of my pictures were ruined. 
I can't seem to find my prom photos like Sandy and Nicole did. They must be at my Mom and Dad's house...

First day of School survival.....
Well we survived the first day of school today! Yeah!....
T first thing this morning anxious for school to start.......She was up and ready this picture was taken 6:30 this morning...Her school starts at 7:20 am...doesnt that seem too early??? Man I was in Slow Mo this morning. Not used of the rush rush so early in the morning.....
T is starting 7th grade this year..............
And she off....................
W showing off her lunch box and bag!! Getting more of a smile here in this picture....
A Bigger smile..............
Do you notice a cute face besides W? Look in the window of our house.....you may have to click to enlarge....
She did great! She found a few of her friends found her new teacher and gave he a big hug and told me I can leave........I think she knew 3rd grade was going to go smoothly!
W's school starts at 8:30am... An Hour after T's school starts. this makes it nice so it is just us in the morning....give her time to adjust.

Store is open.../ Fill for our land....
Hours of operation....
7am-whenever Mom makes W pick up her store and move it to her room.....W was board this morning. I had the day off so we stayed home and lounged in our PJ..( that was until I got a notice in the mail.....I will write about this after...) so we lounged in our Pj's I cleaned house and W took out her Cash-register and things out of our pantry and play store..she did this for hours! she bags items...scanned them over her register and made announcements over a (pretend) intercom about a spill in aisle 3 and needed a clean up. She used Belle and Willow as customers and bought them Dog Chewey sticks. She rang them up for $30.00 Yikes $30.00 for Dog treats?? anyway she had fun until I made her close up so I could get my living room back in order and vacced.
Is W selling cigars or Dog Chewey sticks????
What the heck is Willow doing" she is on her window bed in an odd position? I didn't realize this when I took the picture...LOL

Well today we started to get a bunch of loads of fill for our yard....we have so much we need to fill. we still haven't finished our landscaping since we built this house a YEAR ago....it has been a year and our yard looks so bad. so today we got at least 10 loads of fill and tomorrow we will be getting more...
Here's my Hubby hard at work moving the fill to areas throughout our yard....
Isn't he cute?? Good thing his father owns a heavy equipment business...this Loader came in handy other wise I would still be out there with a shovel....
Here is another load being dumped....so here I stand telling Brad I have to run out...so much for my lounging around in my Pj's with W and T....I am a licensed hairdresser and my licence expires this month and I had to get it renewed so last week I went and had my passport photo taken and sent in my renewal application so they could update it....today I look in my purse and what do I find???? my check to the state of New Hampshire Board of Cosmetology....I never put my check in the envelope with my renewal card and Photo! so here it is 2 days left in the month and I really don't want to be fined for it being late. So I hope they didn't send back my licence and fine me for being late....So I am going to call them tomorrow to let them know what I did...the good thing is that the Bank Check is dated last week..so hopefully this will help in my favor. Yes indeed I am a bit of an airhead. So Although I no longer work in a hair salon I do plan on keeping my licence ....I may someday may want to get back into working at a hairsalon...but I gave it 11 years in the salon and I got burnt out.I needed a change..the other good thing about keeping my licence i get to shop at Salon Wholesale stores and I get salon product at cost! BONUS!! so much for my lounging around home all day with my daughters...

Brrr it is getting cold at the Lake.....
Yup, fall is near..it is pretty chilly at the lake at night. I never took my sweatshirt off all weekend...Poor Willow has no fur to keep her warm( remember she had to get a hair cut to help her skin infection clear up) so I had her all wrapped up in a blanket as we sat near the fire.....School starts Wednesday so our time at the lake is coming to an end ......
I sit with the girls near the fire as Brad calls "T" on the 2 way radio to come back to the camper for the night...These lil radios come in handy at the lake....
Keeping warm near the fire....as we sat near the fire we watched a movie on my Lap Top we watched a freaky movie... The Hills Have Eyes Unrated..... yikes not a good movie to watch while camping....C~R~E~E~P~Y . I would not watch it again....too gorey for me.....I hid behind Willow and Belle under the blanket ...LOL ...

Bye lake see you next weekend!!!!
I finally bit the bullet and bought this pet gate to keep the girls in the way back ...Belle is a good rider but willow is a Pain in the butt in the car.she walks all around and wants to be on my lap all the time as I drive ...I found it so distracting so I ordered this gate which is something I should of ordered a LONG time ago....
Sorry for the short post...I just have 101 things that I have to do.....Sighhhhh

Just the 2 of us........
I LOVE this picture........I took this today as we walked the beach... No Kids...No Pugs...Just the 2 of us. we go to this beach every summer...we have come here every year since we started dating......this means we have walked this beach each summer for 17 years....this place will always be special to me ( us). It is not much.... it is not fancy...it is just a place that we enjoying going and talk about our first time coming here together when we were teenagers talk about the changes that have been made through out the years... Have Lunch at the same sub shop every year and get the same thing....go to our favorite restaurant for Dinner and sometimes we are seated at the same table......People watch..LOL we love to people watch .....we still sit in the same photo booth to get those photo strips every year that we did when we were teenagers...it is still there. ( this time it was out of order) Bummer :o( so today was just for us..........
Welcome to the Atlantic Coast........Hampton beach New Hampshire......

We had the best day today...... we were going to stay longer and go to see TESLA at the Casino Ballroom but it was sold out...so back home we went a good 2 hour ride. The Pugs were happy Little girls to see us back...their Human Papa came to check in them this afternoon so they wern't alone all day long. Sandy I am envious of your living lifestyle..I love the smell of the salty air and I love to feel the sand under my feet.........
