Oh no, not another one?

Two posts in one week! My F.F.I.L is not going to be able to handle it. Good thing he sits down when he is at the computer.

Today was a busy day for me. I decided that I was going to do some errands and get the garden done. But from the look of the sky that wasn't going to happen. The weather person said that we are going to have showers. OK, I can do this in between storms. No problem. Off I go.

Got dressed, put my sneakers on and then it hit me or I should say Sargeant hit me. He knows when I put any type of footwear on, time to go out. He has this habit of jumping and springing off the my calves when I am walking. This really shouldn't be a problem since he is only 5 pounds. Right? Wrong. Every time he does it, I feel like my knee gives out. You know like when someone is walking behind you and thinks its funny to push on the back of your knee. Kinda like that. He does this EVERY single time. Then I start to feel guilty about not spending more time with him, so I decided to take him on some of my errands with me.

First stop, ATM to take the garden money out so I don't spend more than what I had allotted for this project. Stupid dog almost jumps out of the truck window because he is excited that he is out for a ride. Off to the next bank to make car payment.

This bank is nice. Every time I go there with the dog, the drive thru window bank lady gives Sargeant a treat. He KNOWS this. New lady at the window. Didn't give it a second thought. Out comes the draw. I put the payment in. In goes the draw. New DTWBL takes payment, walks away. Comes back. Puts receipt in the draw. Now Sargeant is all excited. Shes back, shes back. I can have me treat now, I was a good boy. I was even wagging my tail. Out comes draw. NO TREAT. Evil DTWBL. He looked at the draw, looked back at me, then at the draw again. Tail stops wagging, ears deflate, eyes droop. One sad dog. Instead of taking him on our weekly trip to Petco, we went home and I gave him a few treats to make up for the EDTWBL not giving him any. Then I put him in the crate and off I go to finish my errands.

Petco.....dog food, check.

Lowes.....dirt, rocks, rake, shovel, herbs and more dirt, check.

Highland Ave greenhouse......flowers and flowers, check.

Since I didn't see what I really wanted at Highland Ave, I thought I would just take a little ride to Broadway Gardens to have a look see. At this point my budget money is running low and I knew that I would have to stop soon. Ok, all I have left was $18.00. I had to look fast and not fall for anything that I wasn't looking for.

They didn't have what I wanted but I did get a beautiful Red Dahlia along with a few Petunia's. That should do it. Keeping my fingers crossed as I went up to the cashier, I hope I would go over the $18.00 that I had in my wallet. Total was $22.40. Not to bad but still over my budget. So what is a woman to do? Pull out the debit card, pay for the whole thing and keep the cash. So I was over by $4.40. It's not like I was over by $440.00. I did very well, even if I say so myself.

Got everything done with the garden with a few minutes to spare and only a few raindrops on me.

Pictures to be posted once I get my dancing frogs. You'll understand when we have a picture. Because right now I don't have the dancing frogs (which can be purchased at BJ's wholesale) and the garden is not complete without them. One day I will get them. They were meant to be in my garden. They are mine, all mine.

Until I get my frogs......
