Dog Sillyness

K so our dog is really great and we love her but she is really crazy. She can spend hours in the yard playing with dirt clods. So we keep coming home to her having chewed up something that we didn't appreciate. Shoes were a really big problem clothes wasn't so nice either. So we now have to lock her in our blue room. I don't think she loves it well yesterday after we got home. I went to bed and noticed a bit later that Sophie wasn't there. And we couldn't find her. Steve looks in the blue room (We had let her out and played with her before I went to bed) and she was there just hanging out not barking or whining, so weird. The best we can figure is that she went in and her tail or her pushed the door shut behind her. Silly dog. She did it again this morning and I don't know maybe she like being trapped in that room. She's just weird like that. Anywho, thats our Sophie. We enjoy her alot.

Our new home

Here are some pictures of our new house. We are renting the bottom floor of this cute little house. I've still yet to take pictures of the outside since its so freezing here. I only go outside to walk the dog or get in the car. We love our cute little house and are really hoping to stay. I am currently job searching and hanging out with the dog. Its not too bad, but I really miss making money, so I'm gonna keep crossing my fingers. Steve has a lighter schedule when it comes to classes, but he has already started studying for the Step test in April. He stays busy and I feel a bit more busy than the islands so I am definitely not missing the Island life. I love the snow and wish it would snow more often cause it is so so cold here. Our opinion is that if its gonna be cold it might as well snow.

Just so you know. I had the green blanket before and It was quite interesting to see it match the wall so closely. A bit much for the eyes, but I love green so it works in the end. The greatest part about this room is that we got the bed on sale. So it was a good price and they were doing a deal that day. We are paying off the mattress for 4 years with no interest. Its so awesome to feel like at least one thing we had to buy isn't going to break the bank.

This is our beautiful spare room, the blue room. All our boxes and snowboard and extra shoes and an ironing board get to take over. Its great having extra space.

Sophie

We have now added to our family circus a dog. This is Sophie and no we didn't name her, but I love the name so it works out great. Plus if we name our worst child Sophie we can always tell her we named her after the dog. And there starts the life long complex which every child should have. (In case you don't understand any of this, I'm joking and would never name a kid after the dog... maybe) So we adopted her from the shelter and we have decided that she looks like a black lab most but must have a little great dane in her. I am inclined to think she has a bit of hound too. Every time we take her out she sticks her nose to the ground and is sniffing out every animal, pile of leaves, and pile of random snow in the area. Pretty great dog.

Also I forgot to mention what a chicken she is. She is now officially scared of the broom, the shovel, the vacuum, the camera, the guitar, and possibly many other things. So when I take the camera out to take a picture of her she gets all cowardly and hides behind Steve. That's pretty much all the important stuff about Sophie. She takes a while to warm up to new people, but we found that anyone carrying food is instantly in the Sophie's friend club.
