Looks like we get to move after all.

We had decided that if our landlords would fix our plumbing problem, we would not move because we basically like the house and the area is exactly where my sister and BIL want to be but the problem with the plumbing is an ongoing one and we will have to have the drain snaked about ever 12-18 months.  The LL finally agreed that this is not our fault but the way the pipes are laid out so are willing to pay to have this done.  So I had to stop looking for houses to buy because I knew that Nonnie and John would not do it for at least 3 years.  But...we just found out that there is someone looking to buy up the whole area where we live-about a four-six block radius so we get to move.  It is also rumored that the owners are being paid to have the renters re-located so hopefully that means they will pay for movers for us.  I get to start looking at houses again..woo hoo!

Below is Lanie's first meal of Ramen Noodles.  Her birth mother used to love these and it looks like Lanie does too.

Ok, I didn't get a chance to talk about my weekend without Lanie.  This is my first weekend since we got her that I had more than about 12 hours without her and NOT working.  I did really miss her though! On Saturday I cleaned carpets in her room and mine and then arranged and cleaned my room - which I had done barely nothing to since Thomas left.  Well I cleaned it when I moved back up there after he left but that was about it.  I still want to put stuff on the walls.

I then spent my entire Sunday reading The Hunger Games.  Let me tell you that is a good book.  It kept my interest from the very beginning and I could not put it down.  I finished all but the last chapter by Sunday night but had to go to sleep so finished it on my lunch hour Monday.  I would really love to see the movie but since I will not be getting away from Lanie for the next few months for even a movie I guess I will have to wait for it to come out on video or on demand.  It was really great to have that time to myself.  I felt so rested and relaxed on Monday and Tuesday but by today it has started wearing off and I am feeling a bit tired.  I didn't sleep well last night though.  I kept having strange dreams and waking up and then going back to the same dreams.  Crazy!  Yesterday I had 11 clients I was really tired by the end of the day and thought I would sleep but I just didn't.

Last night when I picked up Lanie she was in a crabby mood.  I don't think she had a nap.  But she played outside before and after dinner, then had a bath and fell asleep in my lap by 7:15.  She was a tired puppy!
