Becoming too domesticated.....scaring me!!!

Another weekend at home. Spent today, Sunday just doing stuff around the house. Finished laundry, cleaned house, went grocery shopping, made sclmarm's taco soup and made some brownies. This is way too domesticated for me!!! I even think my husband is wondering if some aliens have carted off the real me and transplanted this housewife type in my place. I even stripped the bed and washed the sheets.
I do confess that it has been kinda nice to have the time to just get stuff done around here. Usually I'm always a day behind on something. And never have time to plan a meal.

Well, it'll all change this next weekend because I actually have something dog related that will take me out of town if only for Saturday. I'm excited and am really looking forward to it. I do so miss my dog friends and thank goodness I get my little fix on Monday nights when I teach. I have the best students. Not only are they my students but I feel that they are all friends, too. And their dogs are awesome. I'd take each and every one of them in a heartbeat if there was an offer.

Things are still thumbs up for Keeper and his rehab program.

I tried trotting Nop with the bike yesterday but nothing puts him into the BC stalk like a bike does and while Keeper likes traveling to the side and slightly in front, Nop was behind and stalking. Too funny.

AWWWW, we love you too. And you can probably take Ruben, but he wouldn't be too happy! Now, Cody.. he'd go home w/ you in a SECOND! He was too funny last week!

Cody LOVES ME!!!! And I'd take him in less than a heartbeat.

You're right, poor Ruben would think he had died and went to hell. I'm not offended...I still love him.

ha! The only place I've ever seen Ruben TRULY happy (when not at home) is at Ginger's place... so don't take it personal, he's Eeyore!

I don't take it personal at all.

Your post made me chuckle- it has been said about me from not only my hubby but many friends and family members that the only thing domestic about me is that I live in a house:-) I think my hubby would faint if I changed the sheets and I KNOW he would faint if I made dinner on the same day.

Before I bought my house (I'm now in the city) and I was renting and had horses, the 1st question I'd ask was "How many bedrooms?" and the 2nd question I'd ask was "Whats the barn like???"

I love barns...I love the quietness of them especially when they are filled with horses contently munching on their hay.

To me there is no placer closer to God than in a barn. And many a time I've just plopped down on a bale of hay and just hung out. Lots of thinking done in a barn.

I miss that but do get my barn fix still by doing agility. I just don't have the horses munching on hay part. Which means I also don't have the cleaning stall part too. :~)

you and I really were sisters of different mothers. Amazing.

Never know...we could be related! I was adopted and not much is known about my biological father except that his name was Bob and he worked in Gresham at a loan place.

My bio mother's name is Joyce.

Oh, I forgot about that... (the adopted thing).
Both my parents are immigrants from Hungary/Yugoslavia.
My dad was a wild boy and probably does have a kid or two that we don't know about (at least, I wouldn't put it past him). However, they'd be kids conceived in the Los Angeles area most likely. Any kid he "made" up here in Oregon would be my age or younger.

Doesn't mean the spirit isn't there. You and I had that whole country gal thing going on and it really shows in the stuff you say appeals to you. I can really SMELL my big ol' barn on the farm (we had 12 barns, but the big one was the best) with the Angus cattle munching their hay and me just laying on the bails thinking about stuff. I can totally smell it.

There was this one barn I was in...and I can't really remember where it was...but we went up into the loft and it was just euphoric (sp?). There wasn't any hay up there and it was HUGE. The wood floors had been polished naturally by all the bales of hay sliding across it over the years. The light coming in thru some small openings in the barn wall made the whole place just golden. It was awesome.
