Not Much Action Here

[Janet]

I really am anxious to see pics of Dean's room. Sounds like you are going all out!!!

I still haven't rearranged my room yet, but I'm hoping to get it done this weekend. Not feeling real energetic right now..

I'm still working on Dean's room but I'm also trying to get things ready for a garage sale. I need to still find some new knobs for his dresser and paint some letters on something.......oh.....and paint his dresser. It's all coming together!!

[Janet]

I boxed up a bunch of things that didn't sell at the flea market and maybe I'll try to sell them in a garage sale come spring. Not sure. I may just donate them somewhere. I still need to make the clothes rack or something else out of the old doorknobs that were at Mom's house. They were the original glass ones.

Things have quieted down around here. I have just been busy with the end of summer. My friends and I had parties and dinners almost every night! I'm not used to that, although I did live that way in my younger days, when I always had people over, or went out all of the time.

Today, I was supposed too go to my last writing workshop, but I have to get a mani/pedi, and then might go with Jessie and Mackenzie to an exercise class. I can't do that many things in one day, especially with having to take Max out. He is in a belly band now, and is crated when I am not home. I don't leave for more than 5 or 6 hours because he has to be walked. His belly band is still wet when I let him out though. I guess the urge to mark is strong! I take it off when he goes in his crate, so I have to be home often.

I know this is probably a dumb question but Judy, what do you mean his belly band is still wet when you let him out?

When I first belly banded him, he waited to pee until I let him out. I put a sanitary napkin inside (I cut it in three, since he is so little!). Now, he doesn't wait to go out. He just pees and the napkin gets wet. The belly band itself is actually dry. Except last night! I must have forgotten to let him out, because even the belly band was wet. His belly needs a good washing now! Stinky!

Oh..okay. Joey is only 3.5 lbs, but I still put a half a pad on him. I just have to make sure I change it. It wouldn't matter if I let Joey out or not, he still goes whenever he wants except if he's in his crate. Belly bands definitely help with not letting the furniture get wet.
