House Sitting and Sleep Deprived

This week I am house sitting,

I make sure that when I go on endeavors like this I have all that's necessary

  • *Clothes (given)
  • * Ipod
  • * Chocolate
  • * Glee Soundtrack
  • * 17 again
  • * Fireproof
  • * Chai Tea latte
  • * Blueberry Pancakes
  • * Camera

You get the idea, the basics things you never leave home without. This time I brought my friend Amanda along with me! It' been crazy and an adventurous time thus far.

Along with this house sitting adventure comes a little dog by the name of molly. She is so cute minus the fact that when she gets excited she pees.
Today she ran into the neighbors yard, the neighbor picked her up to give her back to Amanda and the dog peed.
She barks at her reflection, the cats that are twice her size, and the neighbor kids who are playing outside.



Amanda also brought the dog to my work (Which is a church) our friend Gina greeted molly in a very happy voice, Gina got a little presant from molly : Molly peed on Gina's pants. Gina did clean herself up but we have since learned no excited talking to Molly... DO NOT DO IT!!!

She eats bugs, yes ladies and gentlemen I have pulled a grasshopper out of her mouth (insert standing ovation, because if you knew me this make since.. I don't touch bugs!)

I have also learned that ant poison first attracts ants then kills them, don't add more poison.
Also, that when you mix Amanda+Me+ really late/ early in the morning = sleep deprived videos that mean nothing except quoting - What About Bob?-

I think I have become addicted to coffee, didn't think that was ever going to happen but when you don't get enough sleep and you need/ must function the next day you do what every normal being does.. drink some coffee!!!


Things I have learned thus far:

*You don't talk to molly in a happy/ excited voice (she pees)
*Pecan granola and bluberries are A to the mazing in pancakes
*It's never too late to have another cup of coffee
*You can sleep later in life
*Somehow the dog will go through your bag and pull out your toothbrush to chew
on it.
*Don't put toothbrush in mouth get a NEW one!
*kill ALL bugs before they become lunch (for the dog that is)
*watch out molly likes the neighbors house a little too much
*Get to know neighbors
*The post at the end of the stairwell is connected to the stairs not floor, there is one more step
*The beeping sound in the hall doesn't mean you're going crazy it means there is a message, people still do have home phones.
*If not careful the cats will sleep on your head



This has been just a glimpse of my house sitting adventure.

p.s. - I missed a step in the stairs one morning and fell like a tree falling down in the woods.. just thought I would share that funny little image. :)
