I wish I had more time to edit this photo.

The past few days I've been on the hunt for firewood. In fact, I'm going to pick up a few more pieces in a few minutes. At first I took a walk through the woods, but the downed trees are too big to carry home. My brilliant plan, not so brilliant. Then I remembered Craigslist! You can get all sorts of stuff for free, but I'll pass on the opened container of whey powder. Thankyouverymuch.

These are the spoils of my obsession. This poor tree was struck by lightening. You can see the burn marks. I sent Dogdog to get these for me because I already collected all the pieces I could carry myself. These still have to be split and seasoned. So, I guess I'm set for next year.

Today I haven't changed out of my pajamas... still running errands and whatnot. YAY ME!

Joy! We've picked out a puppy. In four weeks, Hops will be ours to bring home and love. It's been over five years since my beloved Maui dog passed, and I still miss her. TeeGirl gave me a clay sculpture of her for Christmas. She worked so hard on it and it was so thoughtful. It made me weepy.

And now we have Hops. All of us couldn't be more thrilled.

*We've also put in our application for a rescued German Shepherd but we're fourth on the list. We're thinking he's going to be adopted by another family, but if not I'll be even happier--if that's even possible. weeeeeeeeee!!!

I think I have a cold. Something strange is going on with my sinuses. I hope you're having a good day. =)
