Yorkies

I have two females that are due to have babies the end of the month.. Don't think Ali (my tiny) will have more than 1 or 2 this time.. That's ok though.. Missy is a bit bigger at 4 pounds and she is huge.. This is her first litter so am hoping everything goes well.. I feel sorry for her, she has a whole month to go and is already miserable.. poor little girl.. I will post pics of them all when they arrive.. They are sooo tiny at birth, weighing in at around 2 ounces.. Most people think they look like mice, but they don't they look like a tiny tiny doberman pincher.. with the same markings.. It always amazes me to look at the two breeds.. The tiny Yorkshire Terrier, a toy, and then the Doberman.. Huge.. We actually have both breeds in our family.. My son Jordan has a Male Dobie who weighs in at about 80 pounds( but a big baby) and they the yorkies who are about 3-4 pounds.. the same colors and markings, except the yorkies have long hair.. Jordan is hoping to breed his dobie so if there is anyone out there who would need a great looking stud for their female, please let us know..

My 5 addictions:

#1. Maple sticks from the Palace Cafe!! I have to have one every single day. If I don't work I go get one. The are bread dough, made into sticks and deepfried and then frosted with maple frosting. Yes you can get them at a bakery, but these fresh everyday are the best. Even when I make them!!! And I do every Monday at work....

#2. Yorkies. I love them!!! I spoil them rotten although not like some people do theirs. I don't dress mine up although I do put pony tails in their hair sometimes. Ali sleeps with me and sits on my lap most of her waking or I should say my waking hours. The family loves it when I am being lazy on the couch with all the yorkies laying on or around me. lol....

#3 Chocolate. I really don't know of many who don't have this one. But it is my favorite!!!!! especially dark chocolate.

#4. Arbonne. Oh gosh you all just have to try this wonderful skin care product. It is awesome. My skin has never looked nor felt so wonderful... All natural skin care. Try it you'll like it and I know just who you can get it from. (ps. Ashley will be doing a give away soon with Arbonne)

#5. Shoes, slippers, sandles, anything on my feet. My husband teases me as does my mother- In -Law about all my shoes. I have a hard time giving them up. I have a pair of sandles that are about 10 years old, I seldom wear them, but I do sometimes. They are still in style and why on earth should I give them up? They only take up a little bit of space. lol..... I love shoes.

there you are Ashley. I blogged twice today. lol...... Love ya

Since I've Been gone.

Well hello again. It has been a long time since I have been on to blog about anything.
We had a wonderful Christmas with all the kids and granddaughters at home. We got some wonderful news of a new grandchild coming our way in July. Shanna and Cole are having a baby!!! Almost gave up on them. lol... Check out her blog at Siegle and Company to follow her news.
We will be having some Yorkie babies in Feb. Rosie is pregnant (I think) Can't tell with her until about a week before, although she is gaining some weight. So I am pretty sure she is. I was actually hoping to wait with new puppies til spring, but it just doesn't work out that way.
Our dogs have a problem sharing the food dish. Last week Ali (the smallest) was eating and Missy was laying by the food dish waiting patiently for her turn. When Ali was done, she took a kibble out of the bowl and put it right beside Missy and then walked off. I had never seen her do that before. What a little stinker she is.
My Job.
I work at the Palace Cafe as a cook. Our boss is going on vacation for about a month or 3. lol.... Her daughter is going to be running the cafe in her place. I have a feeling she is going to change alot of things. Some things are not going to go over well with the employees. Change is good most of the time, although it sounds like there will be some things that are not totally nessary. But I guess we'll see. Wish us employees good luck as we would hate to all quit and let her run the place herself. lol.... I don't think it will come to that.
I have been trying to keep my house in order since Shanna left. She went through and took out alot of stuff that was not needed. (bet the garbage men had a hayday) lol.... It looks really good. I have been getting on "flylady" and trying to follow her daily "missions" It's rather fun. The biggest thing is the clutter that accumulates in all those spots. She calls them "hotspots" That is what I am mainly working on is getting rid of more and more clutter. You wouldn't believe how much can build up in one day.
My laundry room was really bad. Laundry and storage all in one. What a mess. It is much better now that Shanna went through it. I am continuing to get rid of clutter. It doesn't take long if I just do it. I now feel like I can fix some things up a little nicer. I have some plans for the laundry room and all over this house. Greg is taking a vacation this month sometime and finally going to put up the trim on the windows and doors.. We decided on pine instead of oak. It will look nice. I can't wait. It has been a looooooong time. Now we have to decide on the flooring. He wants carpet and I want wood. Hmmmmm wonder who will win. lol...
Kids
School is started again after a long Christmas break. Aj and Heath don't look forward to going now. It always seems to be that way. The first half of school is great, then after Christmas it turns to humdrum.
Jordan is back in Fargo working and going to school.. He also didn't look forward to going back. but he is done in April except a few classes he has to take online. Then he will have his degree in diesle mechanics. He is excited about that.
Well that is all that has gone on since the last time I was on. lol.... Not a very exciting life. One of these days I will find something really cool to blog about. Hang in there. lol.
