Onto Year 2....

This past weekend, I celebrated one year in Charlotte and one year with Cabarrus County. As promised, I did enjoy a (few) tall glass of Blue Moon to commemorate the event. One year done, on to the next....

This week, Bella has puppy school Wednesday night and then I take her Thursday morning to the vet to have her op (to get spayed). Relient K is coming to Amos' Friday night. I'm hoping to have money left over in my "fun box" after Bella's op to go.

We'll see how the week progresses......

p.s. AARRGGHH! Yay for a PIRATES' victory this weekend over Memphis!
