Real quick, for Grampy

I know I've been slacking with the blog posting this week... sorry! I got a little wrapped up in all the Bloggy Carnival fun.

OH, and I've been taking care of my kids, and walking dogs (it's like one big, neverending dog walk around here!), and working. Definitely been working. [You'd think I would actually have some money with all the work I do, huh? Don't I talk about work A LOT? Yeah, I actually work A LOT... and they do pay me, sometimes. I think I need a raise...]

So, what else has been going on here, aside from stalking unsuspecting blogs, feeding dirty-faced kids, bagging dog poop, and inserting serial commas?

Gee, what else is there?!?!

We went grocery shopping yesterday... the whole fandamily. That's ALWAYS fun (like having a root canal-kinda fun). For some reason, Nick and I torture ourselves (and each other) quite often with the family shopping trip. I know from experience that it's sooooo much nicer, easier, faster, not to mention cheaper for just one of us to do the shopping, while the other lucky parent stays home with the monsters. But, for some reason, we don't do that very often. I think it's because we both hate grocery shopping... neither one of us wants to do it, so we figure if one of us has to suffer, we ALL suffer! Really bad logic, I know...

So, yeah, my big trip to the grocery store... I think that's the first time I've left my neighborhood (all that dog walking, remember?) since I can't even remember when. I really need to make it a point to get out more. Working from home for going on 9 years has done horrible things for my mental state (as if I needed any help in that department!). I'm turning into a hermit of sorts. Just the word "hermit" conjures up really scary images in my head... and do I want to be that person? Well, no. But it's happening/has happened (ack!).

And, gee, this was supposed to a "real quick" blog to pacify my dad... but I'm rambling, like I tend to do. So, I'm leaving off here and I'll continue this train of thought (the whole hermit thing) at a later date. Hold me to it (I'm really bad with follow-up blogging, have you noticed?).

Just to make my random post even more random... here's a random pic. He's cute, right? Yeah, he poops a lot, too.
