Yesterday when we got home we found this lovely little surprise waiting for us:

We got a UPS shipment and apparently Moxie didn't like the delivery guy very much. He's always barked at other dogs and the kids that walk by after school, and even bent the screen in front of this window last summer while it was open – but never actually broken anything. My best guess is that Moxie was taken by surprise and by the time he made it to the window the delivery guy was already on the porch… so Moxie got caught up in the moment and forgot to stop.

Our animals are crazy.

Ollie likes to sneak into places he knows he's not allowed. So he'll wait by a door if he hears you coming through, and try to slip past your feet. I'm usually pretty good about swinging my boats through quickly and pushing him back if he happens to be there, but the other day he got past Megan and into the garage. No big deal, it happens sometimes. If he doesn't want to come out right away or hides under the car then we'll just shut the door and let him have fun for a bit, and come back later. When we went to let him out, he was waiting for us:

By the way, if you have any tips on controlling Moxie's viciousness during the day while we're away, please let me know!

Shall we call this a Photo Wednesday? Sure, why not. It's Wednesday, and I have photos for you.

I finished my test piece last night, and started to try to figure out "rounds" – and I think I've got a good start. I'll definitely take pictures of whatever rounding progress I get tonight.

As I've mentioned recently, we've been having camera problems. I even took this lovely little expression of my frustration:


Neither of us have taken any pictures recently, and this is mostly why. And I think at this point I'm going to have to postpone Photo Wednesdays until we get a better camera. (I can hear your collective moans, and begrudgingly agree.)

On the bright side, we're expecting my bonus in the next 8-10 weeks, more or less, so you won't have to wait too long. And I have no doubt that having some new equipment is going to put a fire up under my butt to take some pictures! (And give me something constructive to do on my smokeless smoke breaks.)

So sorry for forgetting again yesterday (I guess I need to add a reminder to my PDA for that too, at least after we get a new camera), and stuff.
