working my brain

I just posted my photo to OKC Metro Daily, and today's is particularly good, if I do say so myself. I lucked into it because I went out with Ozzy so he wouldn't eat grass. (Today the pest guy was here and sprayed the yard so I wanted to make sure Oz didn't spend too much time on it.) I, unfortunately, also found a hole that some sort of critter seemed to have made by digging down under the foundation of my house. When I called the pest control people the woman wasn't the least bit surprised and had the name of a man quite handy - Critter B Gone. Great name. Well, it's not the man's name, but you know what I mean. I called Josh to ask him what he had done about the critters in his back yard and he basically told me that I hadn't seen the hole and there wasn't anything in the hole even if I had seen it. Sigh. Would he talk like this to anyone else in the world? Do I even have to ask?

Ozzy and I went to the doggy store and bought some new food for him. Michele said that Ginger's breath smelled tons better since she had been eating Beneful, so Ozzy is now trying Beneful, too. There were several different types available, and since he doesn't have a weight or age problem, I had to figure out which to get, since it costs $12 per bag. A big decision. It's not like he's going to eat the bag quickly. The bag weighs as much as he does! They didn't have a smaller bag. So, I held up the different bags to him and the one he spent the most time sniffing - twice - I bought. Made sense to me.

I'm still trying to figure out the software situation so I can work on the genealogy project with Uncle Tom. Heather and Bill gave me some really good advice tonight on the phone. I'm going to work on what they told me and see what happens from there. I would like to talk to Josh about it, but after this afternoon it doesn't really feel like it would be worth it.

So that's about it. A good picture opportunity, a chance to get out of the house and some brain time with Heather and Bill. My day in a nutshell.
