I have got to leave my house more often! I need the practice. I swear, it took me FOREVER to get out the door this morning! The dogs were not cooperating. They were looking at me like "what are you doing? this is not what we do. we eat, we go in and out about a hundred times, we sleep, we bug you while you try to work, we bark at each leaf that blows by the front yard. but we don't go to 'our rooms' first thing in the morning!" So, between the dogs, tho phone ringing, me forgetting everything - it took like 20 minutes to get out the door. Veruca Jane had to go to the vet for her annual, I had to go to the bank, post office, buy dog food, etc. But I have to tack an extra half hour just to get out the $%&* door! So, if you are ever wondering why I seem like a home body, now you know - it's too much trouble to leave the house! :)
