I forgot to mention last week that when I was looking at my blog stats, I noticed I was over 20,000 by a few hundred hits! I didn’t think that anyone checks my blog, but I guess people love to stop by. Boy, does that make me happy! Just because all of you readers are so kind, let’s do a RAK. Just leave me a comment on this post — that’s it. You have until May 21st! Good luck to all.

Now… on to the fun stuff.

I am so exhausted beyond belief. Lately, I’ve been dealing with tons of house renovations, shopping around for new furniture (the new bed finally was delivered), and trying to keep our place clean and tidy. Even though there’s a lot going on, we deciding on making another big decision.

No, I didn’t buy any nifty electronic gadgets like an iphone, but I do plan on getting my new laptop very soon.

No, we’re not planning on buying another house. I wish I was that rich though, haha. Give it another 4-5 years, and all that money will go into some small dinky house which is completely overpriced due to the housing inflation all over the bay area.

No, I’m not going to someplace cool like Greece, Italy, New Zealand, Hawaii, etc. Hopefully though, I’ll be going soon! Vacations are always on the must-do list.

No, I didn’t get a pretty and sparkly diamond ring. I’m anticipating that for next year. Thus, there is no wedding. Hopefully, in a couple of years, I’ll get to walk down an aisle.

No, it’s not a new car or new camera. Although, I did get a new car and camera earlier this year.

The exciting news:

If you guessed “puppy”, “furbaby”, “schnauzer”, “dog”, etc., then you were absolutely right! We jumped on the opportunity and decided to add to the family. Now, there are two monsters running around the house. We picked him up this weekend from the same place we adopted Maui. Yup, he’s a full Miniature Schnauzer; we can’t seem to get enough of that Schnauzer personality. He’s considered Parti color, and oddly enough, he’s tricolored. Oh, and get this — they are actually blood-related! I was so worried how Maui was going to react. Suprisingly, Maui can’t get enough of Hilo. They can’t stop playing with each other, and the wrestling and tug-o-war games are endless. To make things even better, they sleep next to each other.

So, do you get why there’s a BIG smile on my face?! Well, if you don’t, let me show you why:

Okay, so do you see why I’m grinning from ear to ear?! I’ve got a house full of LOVE and more LOVE. There will be more cuddles and more adventures to enjoy. There’s also going to be a lot of potty accidents and chewing incidents, but patience will keep us going. Get this though, he learned sit in 3-4 tries! Wahooo!! It’s going to be one up and down ride, but here goes. Send us the best of luck!

Oh, and for those of you who guessed right, I plan on putting your name into the drawing three times. I’ll have one of the furbabies pick a name out.

I had time to scrap. Can you believe it?! I created a layout with the latest sketch over at Pink Sketches! Here’s mine for the week:

Oh, and if you haven’t all ready, join us in the latest challenge over at Scrap Outside the Box! I’m dying to see what people can create with the challenge I posted! Seriously, I dare you to give it a go. I want to see players in this one!!!

Also, thank you to Gutter Girlz for selecting me as one of the winners for the last challenge. I had such a fun time playing along, so it’s even cooler that I’m going to get more happy mail in the mailbox.

Hugs to all,

sarah.

PS – I want to see those comments!!! If I get over 30 comments on this one, I’ll send out an even bigger RAK… and perhaps, I’ll draw two names!
