Just a little behind!

I've been getting chewed out for being so behind on posts, so here's what's been going on.

Let's see -

Jonah has been returned to the SPCA (which is no-kill). As wonderful as he was, our original reasons for giving him up still stood - he was far too big for the house.

Scott and I have both given up smoking cigarettes, although he's still smoking those little cigars, Black & Milds, and I seem to be unable to control myself when I'm in social settings where others are smoking, but do just fine any other time. I'll be working on that one!

Part of the reason for not posting was that the lake had receded to the point where it was a mudhole - which was very depressing! We got some really good hard rain the other day though and it brought the waterline back to the level it was before the really hot summer weather started, although we didn't see that until this morning. (This is not to be mistaken for the actual "lake level". This is only the waterline as it relates to the shoreline at our house.) Rusty's outside running around now, happy to see the beach looking like it used to :)

I'll definitely do a better job of keeping this blog up, I promise!

Honey, you said the lake was back to where it was before the drought. Not sure just where you think that was. Last time I read the Dallas Morning News lake report, it was about 10-12 feet low. That was just a week or so ago...........

You're right...I phrased that incorrectly. It's back to where it was at the beginning of the really hot weather. I'll fix that ;)

I'd love to see some pics of the lake. We moved back in July and I miss seeing it. Did you get any pics of it when it was WAYYYY down?

I hear you on the smoking.. I quit after finding out I was pregnant with my youngest daughter back in 2003. I am just fine not smoking until I get around other people that are smoking when having cocktails ;). Then, I end up taking a "drag".
