Little (Dog)House on the Prairie

Izzi will rarely sit on my lap for very long. She’s always gotta go, go, go–play with her toys or woof at every little noise outside. Tonight I was channel flipping and found a station that comes in sometimes, most of the time not very well. But I caught it just as Little House was coming on. Shortly after, Izzi jumped up on my lap and laid down facing the TV. She didn’t move an inch until after the final credits an hour later, then she jumped down and went on her merry way, her radar ears picking up noises to woof at. It was very unusual–and very, very cute!

A Marriage Milestone…

Today we had a shredding party! We have been married long enough now that our first year’s tax return is no longer in danger of being audited. I also read recently that you only need to save financial records for a year, so I had 6 years of those to shred. Three big black garbage bags later, I have an almost empty file drawer! Yay!!
