Back in the blog

Having escaped the dark period that we now refer to as AMS - I feel so guilty adding more complaint - and yet I continue - mostly because a good number of you have told me that you enjoy reading these stories.  So I am back in the blog... ironically again to keep my sanity.  I have a new problem.  I have a family of frogs living in my house. 

Dan and I bought a house back in June - our first house actually - and the entire experience has been such a roller coaster.  (In a nutshell... WTF??? Why didn't any of you tell me how hard this @%^&$ is?)  Long story short - we had to make some adjustments / tweak some things / change some doors / and as a result we ended up with a 3" gap in one of our back doors.  It was a temporary problem (I was assured) that would be re-visited later in the week.  

The next morning after said adjustments I woke up to find a family of frogs in our family room.  Even Lola was so taken aback that she just rolled with it.  And these were proper frogs.  Not the kind you can scoop up and say "oh, you are so cute!"  No - evicting these frogs required strength and guts and resolve.  It sucked.  They scared me.  I was so pissed.

Loving Texas - the frogs not so much.
