Moving back home...

Soze and I are all moved in now. We have been back in my mom's house for 6 days, but it feels much longer. Not because of my mom but because of the dog!!! Since mom doesn't have a fenced-in yard, I have to let Soze out on the leash everytime we go outside. First of all, it took her until Tuesday to poop!!! She just isn't used to going on the leash, but I was hoping she would get the hang of it. I think she has now. She still doesn't go on a regular basis, but at least she will go every once and a while. It's just really COLD in the mornings and at night when I have to stand outside for 30 minutes trying to get the dog to go!!

On a different note, Todd and I moved out of our old house with the help of his parents. It took us about all day last Thursday through the snow and wind. We started out to KC around 5:30 pm and didn't get there until 11:30 pm!! It was snowing so hard and fast at one point, we couldn't tell if we were even driving on the highway or not. I'd hit the rumble bars every once and a while just to make sure I was still on the road. We were all in separate cars (4 of us), and I had Soze in the back seat of my car. We would all pull over to unfreeze our windshield wipers because we couldn't see out! Even on the clearer parts of the road up around Clinton, I was still driving slow because I could feel my car moving back and forth. Everyone else was loaded down with weight from furniture, boxes, miscellaneous stuff, etc. Not me!! Todd's mom passed me--I was going that slow!! I didn't care--I just wanted to get up to KC and get out of the weather!

Todd's coming home tonight and staying until Tuesday for his Dr.'s appointment. At least we can spend some time together this weekend. I guess we'll use this weekend as our Valentine's Day celebration. We usually don't do anything special other than go out to dinner, but that will be special for us since we don't see each other very often now.

Talk to you all soon!
