Job Woes

We can't get a puppy because we shouldn't purchase a fence. My job situation is too uncertain right now. They've been telling me since February that they're going to hire me, but it's one excuse after another. All they can do is extend my temp contract through 7-31. Still no promise of a job after that. So, no puppy.

Almost Puppy Time

Today we've been preparing to finish our fence. We went to Lowe's and Marvin's to price all the pieces we'll need. Then we spent the afternoon clearing brush, smoothing out humps in the yard, etc. I also did housework - laundry, dusting, cleaning the kitchen and bathrooms...

We had our first rose bloom today! It's a red one, but in the rose garden there are many buds, and I think the next one to bloom will be yellow.

Tomorrow is Easter and I'm excited. I have to be at church at 8:10 for choir rehearsal. After singing in both services, I'll be headed to B'ham to Granny's house. (That reminds me, I need to go to the store so I can make my blackberry cobbler...)

We might get a puppy in time for my birthday!
