Bobbi and Berkeley's Nomadic Weekend

Don't let them fool you; they are hooligans. Mason and Tucker finally resting.
This is my newest Grand-dog, Mason.


Friday afternoon I saw that the WSDOT web page said Hwy 7 was open! I could escape! I gathered some clothes, Berkeley's leash, and called Teena and Tyler and left messages I was on my way to town and would be staying with one of them! I ended up staying Friday night with Mark and Teena in Tacoma, and Saturday night I stayed with Jessie and Tyler in Olympia/Lacey/Yelm. It was wonderful!!!! Berkeley was thinking we were homeless.


On the one mile up the hill hike on the way back to the house this afternoon, several thoughts crossed my mind: How nice everyone was to take us in this week; how loyal Berks has been; and how I wished I had bought fewer apples and oranges.


When I got home, I called Direct-TV to tell them about my dish problem and remind them that I am a loyal customer in good standing, and that I could "bundle and save" if I were to switch providers. He agreed to send a technician out on January 20 for FREE! And hopefully I'll score a free dish! He asked if there should be any notations on the work order. I said yes, tell the driver to ignore the "road closed" sign. ;)

Thanks you four for letting us stop by. I may need to run to town this weekend for more books! OMG, I'll bring you the book I am reading now.

I love having a reliable car, a loyal dog, wonderful friends, a great son and fiance,my little money pit in Orlando, and my sister...oh, and Tucker and Mason, especially when they sleep.

Thanks for being part of my life, Jessica.
