Our weekend

Well, we went to the bird fair yesterday and we think we've found the bird we want to get. We either want a Jenday Conure or a Sun Conure. They are very similar and they are both cuddly birds. All of the breeders who have these warned me that they might be noisy with their squawking. Did they not see that I had 4 boys standing next to me????? I just laughed when they said that!! B alone could outsquawk most parrots! HAHA!!

I was thinking about having a noisy bird today when I was on the phone, J was crying, B and Re were wrestling and the dog was barking at the door.

It was pretty chaotic here today for some reason. I ran to the library to get some books that we needed for school this week and when I got home there was a guy walking up my driveway to sell me something, B came out to tell me (in a loud voice)
about something that Ri had done while I was gone, the dog came bounding out the front door as soon as B opened it and then started running towards the salesman guy and then proceeded to run down the street.

I had to yell for him to come (he did, luckily) and the guy (a young guy who was about 18 with no kids,I'm sure!) kept trying to sell me pizza coupons. Uh, no thanks. I heard him say, "Geez..." as he walked away and I was yelling for the dog to come while J was crying to be let out of his carseat and B was saying, "We do too eat pizza! We don't make it ourselves!" Then, when I pinched him so that he'd be quiet because the guy was still within earshot, he yelled (squawked)in a high-pitched squeal, "OW!" I may have well just yelled to the guy, "OK! I lied!" I just started laughing to myself.

Oh, and I had called the trash company to come and pick up our broken freezer last week and they said they'd pick it up today. They said that if it's not out when they get here, they'll charge me $10. Well, the freezer is still sitting there and they never came! So, I'm going to call them and tell them I'm charging them $10 for not showing up!

We have that sitting out front and two cabinets that someone from Freecycle is supposed to come and get. They are huge and our yard looks like a junkyard with all of the stuff at the end of the driveway. All of this was there when the pizza guy walked up....I can only imagine his dinner conversation tonight. :) :) Here's a picture of one of the cabinets...I have two sitting at the end of my driveway.


Paul is at the Cardinals game tonight "on business." Poor thing, has to work late again. :)
