Monday Report

Well another week has come and gone, so i'll update the past week. I've been working on priming some of dustin and jamie's kitchen doors, i can't wait to see the whole kitchen done.

No boating this weekend, i'm hoping we can get back up to union valley this saturday. My latest rant is the water level at folsom, has not been enough water for us to go this year, and tomorrow the speed limit on the entire lake will go to 5 mph due to the many hazards. What a waste of tax payer dollars.

Now to the happings at home; in the last week my mountain man has shot a raccoon, and 2 skunks- shot em with a shotgun- cut em right in two, blames himself ! * see bottom for reference, if you didn't get it. And worst of all, 2 mom and 8 or so baby turkeys are coming into MY flower beds and tearing up my flowers ! I am just about at my wits end ! D.W. never barks, he just runs head on into a skunk, the other night i was giving him a very cold from the hose bath on the front porch.... he's about ready to get thrown down the driveway and stomped on !

Not really, actually what my plan is to get an outside dog- yes, now the time for booing and hissing from jay and casey. What i want is a dog outside at night chasing these critters away, it's '
all well and good when dad's home and wants to get up and shoot them, but when he's gone 2-3 nights a week i feel like i'm at a stupid skunks whims, it's making me nuts, i'm finally getting better sleep, but varmints are overrunning the place. So dad is a little mad at me, what with the Burton bloodline and all. I love my little dog family, but i need a varmint chasing front porch dog. we'll see

So I think I'm done for now, dad is taking apart the waterbed, i have it on craigslist for free ! and have already got some interest, we'll see if someone will come this far for something that is free, aside from Jay's motto: Nothing For Free ! gotta go, love to all

P.S. the answer is Steve Martin- stand up

How is it that no one has commented on this blog throughout the week?! Very nice Steve Martin reference, I'm diggin' it like James Brown. (Also, nice spacing between paragraphs!) Oh, and about the outside dog--ahem! "BOOOO!!!!" "HISSSSSSSSSS!!!"
Love ya.
