I can really see the similarity of me in this one:

After a short battle for his health, we had to put Buddy down on Wednesday, November 25th. He was only 4 1/2 years old. The vet believes that he had stomach cancer that spread to his liver; and he was essentially in liver failure when we put him down. He went from being a 75 lb dog to about 41 lbs on Wednesday. He was truly the best dog I've ever known and we will miss him. He will be cremated and his ashes will be spread at Canyon Lake. We love you Bud-Dog.

This is his "Praise Jesus" trick:

How can you not love this face?

We jumped at 14000 feet from a perfectly good airplane. You get up to speeds of 120 mph until you hit 6000 feet when we deployed the chutes. Then you just float back to Earth. The whole thing takes about 65 seconds. It. was. awesome. Justin and I will definitely be doing this again; the feelings are indescribable. The view was awesome and just incredible how all of your senses just come alive. Between everything you see - the clouds, the horizon, the sun, the ground, and what you feel - the temperature at the drop point is 30 degrees and you can feel it get progressively warmer the closer to Earth, and the sounds - from wind rushing your ears until you deploy the chute and then it's absolute silence. Just clear as day to have a conversation between the instructor on my back and me. We did spins and spirals to get the lift in your stomach like a rollercoaster does. We can't wait to be able to afford to do it again! (Although I used my "self improvement" quarterly $200 from work to cover part of the cost today. :) I love my job.)

For my first day at Triad, they had a full bouquet of flowers delivered to my desk. They also took me out to a long lunch. I didn't even have to be there until 9 (I was there by 8:35) and left at 3:00. Told me to be back tomorrow at 8:30. Also, I have this Friday off. Normally I would not because they want me to be on opposite Fridays of my boss, but until I am trained, she said I should match with her schedule. I report to the controller, so when she is off on a Friday, I am her back-up. When I do get to my regular schedule I will actually end up having 2 Fridays off in a row. I won't be complaining. I can already tell from the training I did today that I am going to LOVE this job. I can't wait to go back tomorrow!

The AC guy came out yesterday about 3:00 and after replacing the fan and another part, it worked again. We also found out that the 5 year warranty on parts and labor just ended about 2 months ago, but luckily, the previous homeowner bought an extended warranty on the parts (another 5 years)! Thank you John! So it only ended up costing us about $100 for the labor. Well worth it. To celebrate, we went to our neighborhood pool, which was really nice. Water temperature was great and there weren't too many people there. By the time we got back to the house a couple of hours later, it was nice and cool, just how we like it.

Of course we didn't take pictures, but we had a fun night to celebrate Justin's birthday. Skyler came over with his 2 Jack Russells, so Buddy had some playmates too. Skyler and Justin went to Wal-Mart and bought a charcoal grill, steaks, and other veggies for a cookout. I stayed home to start preparing my seasoned potatoes and keep an eye on the dogs (we had to put the cats in a closed off room). Then Jim and Erica came over with 8-week old Emma in tow. She's so cute! Well, the guys ended up buying 6 steaks, so we had 1 extra. I decided to invite a girl from work, Andrea, who just moved here 3 weeks ago from Miami. She's an industrial engineer here at TI. She was thrilled to be invited. I also invited her because Skyler wanted to meet her; I had told him she was Colombian and cute, so of course this piqued his interest. On a side note, I also learned she speaks 4 languages fluently - English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian; a woman of many talents. Back to my story now, everybody ate the delicious food and we sang Happy Birthday before Justin blew out the candles on his cake. Everybody loved the cake too (if I don't make it from scratch, Duncan Hines is the way to go). But as we were eating dinner around 7:30, I was getting really hot in the house. And I wasn't the only one. We checked the AC, it was set at 75 degrees. We figured with the people going in and out, the West Sun that brutally beats in our living room, the oven had been on low for a little while, and having all the people in our house, it just got hot and the AC was having a time to try and cool the house down. It wasn't until everybody left around 9:15 that Justin went and checked the outside unit that we discovered the fan was not working. It's making noise like it wants to work, but nothing is happening. So, needless to say, it was a warm night. We slept on top of the bed and left windows open and fans going. Justin stayed home today to try and figure out what the problem is. I'm really hoping that it will be fixed by the time I get home from work. Oh the perils of owning a home.

The following are my interpretations of what I think Doo-Dah is thinking:

Dum-dee-dum-dee-dum; Oh, hey there. I'm just playing with my bright jingly ball, mom. I'm not getting into anything, I swear. If you did find something, it wasn't me.

See, I scoot it around and it makes noise. And if I stay under the couch, nobody can get me.

Uh-Oh! I think I pushed it away too far and I am NOT leaving the safety of the couch.

How in the world do I get it now? I need to assess the situation.

Hmm, my arms aren't quite long enough. Drat!

Oh that sneaky ball; I've been foiled! Next time you will be mine.
