I'm Back

We FINALLY have internet and cable at the new house as of today!!!!!!! We are so excited, I was so missing reading every one's blogs. We also finally
closed the sell on our old house last Friday. What a relief to have that done. This is my second week back at school and it is going great. Surprisingly I was actually completely OK and ready to go back to school. My class seems to be way better behaved than the class I had last year so I'm hoping it stays that way. Dominick is doing great. I took a few pictures of him tonight so I could do a quick post on my blog. I'll try to update at least twice a week now.


Here is Little Man aggravating Mickey. He was not sleeping, he loves to climb up on the sofa and lay his head on my poor dogs. Mickey was growling at him. It is so weird, Dominick and the dogs act like real, human brothers. They fight over food and toys everyday. Seriously, Dominick will throw little hissy fits because one of the dogs snatched his food or toy and ran off with it. Stuff like that happens all through out the day. But they love each other to death. I would have never thought they'd all love each other this much.


This picture is for you Mom. That's the thing I bought for over the fireplace. Not exactly what I wanted but it will do OK for now. The Lampe Bergers are temporary. I just stuck them on the mantle until I find something better to put there. For those of you who don't know me well, I used to collect Lampe Bergers, both new and antique ones. They have some over 100 years old on e-bay. I have a total of 11 at this time. They are fun to buy but I don't know where to put them all so I will try to not buy any more for awhile even though there are a few more antique ones I MUST have.

Here are a few of the other Lampe Bergers. The 3 on the left are from 1960's and 70's.

No Preservatives, Mom!

I do not cook, so poor Dominick only eats Lil' Entrees when we eat at home. My mom is terribly worried because of all the preservatives and I noticed tonight the package says "NO PRESERVATIVES" so I had to post a picture for her to see. Look at the red circle on the left Mom. Ha ha ha, no more fussing at me about Dominick's meals.

I'm also posting pictures for you (Mom) to see Dominick's new room in the new house. Luckily, I was able to reuse his animal decals from the old house. Those decals cost over $300 so I was glad I was able to salvage them. We had his walls painted a sky blue color with clouds painted at the old house but I just stuck them on the wall at the new house and they look OK. He sure loves them regardless of the wall color. He goes up to each animal and kisses them every morning and every night. Then when he gets in his bed at night he says "ni-ni doo-doo" to the rooster for cock-a-doodle-do, "ni-ni moooo", "ni-ni baaaaa" and so on to each of his animals decals. Please excuse the mess in his room.
