Moving right along

In between watching older episodes of 24, we have managed to get most of our packing done.
Last night, we felt like a couple of felons fishing for cardboard boxes in dumpsters. (silly, considering that they were thrown away)
We obviously didn't let that stop us though, and we hit the jackpot - I am convinced that if we had children, they would be in cardboard heaven.
It took a good number of boxes to pack our bookshelves . . . (fellow students and readers, raise your hand ;)

While looking at another dog rescue site yesterday, Haven got in contact with someone who had a 1 yr old yellow lab up for adoption. Last night we checked him out - what a cutie! He was mild and very sweet- mannered, yet, still playful and puppyish. The gal had crate-trained him, and he is potty-trained (hip-hip-hurray!)
So, hmm. He wasn't very expensive, and had already gotten his vaccinations and is micro-chipped. I think, I think, I think that maybe- possibly- perhaps we have found our dog :)
I'll keep you posted though -we can't really take him until Saturday, when he will have his own yard to play in :)

By the way, looking for an appliance? Have you considered Best Buy? I know, I thought that they only sold electronics and gadgets! In a very small section of their store, we found our new GE microwave for literally 1/2 the price, just because it was a display item and was missing a dish & a manual. What a deal - we got a $20 coupon (so we can buy the dish from the Best Buy parts store) and we already downloaded a manual off the internet. It was awesome!
