How much does a peaceful weekend cost?

The answer might surprise you.  Apparently the cost is .99 cents.  Yesterday morning I stopped at the pet store and bought a small rawhide bone.


That bone bought me a whole day.  She loved it and I got to get some things done around the house.  Best .99 cents I ever spent!  She is settling down and the time outs are getting less frequent.  Don't you love the time out face.......


Saturday my cousin came to fix my front step and replace the broken post.  It's nice not to see the busted stump anymore. Next weekend I'll paint if it doesn't rain.


Today I made a beef stroganoff in the slow cooker.  The smell was great in the house.  I haven't cooked much since Lola arrived.  


One last thing, if you have Netflix I found a great new show today. It's one of their new original series and it's fantastic.  Grace & Frankie.  Netflix has outdone themselves.  How can you go wrong with Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Martin Sheen and Sam Waterston.  Check it out.

  10. Finding what works to keep Lola happy is truly a blessing, hey? ~grin~ I make a mean beef stroganoff, though I have not made it in a long while.

  11. Fantastic. Your girl is coming around and you are building a new acceptable personality and good behavior. You two will be maw-velous together. Home is beginning to take great shape.

  12. Careful with those rawhide bones. One of my dogs chewed a large section off and got it caught in his throat. Got it out with lots of teeth marks on my hand. Since I have shifted to bully sticks and Himalayan dog chews which I buy online.Love that you and your tiny terrorist have reached a mutually beneficial pact.
