MXDing my Mind

Look Mom, I drew that (ignore the scale though as I put miles and it should be something else)!So I got a new project to work on the side for the fire department while finishing up the quarter. Instead of digitizing river data it's golf holes & hydrants :-D!

Still am not having much luck with finding some really great place to have the QG this summer. Kind of frustrated with that. Every place wants so much money it's crazy. I still have a few ideas to chase though.

Thinking of doing something special for Maggie's 6th birthday this weekend. I know she will be pleasantly surprised lol but then again she always loves whatever I do for her especially if it involves treats!!

The Girl Who Trilogy

Ok I am so hooked on this trilogy lol due to sis leaving a book behind on her most recent visit oh which I literally read the whole first book in like under 4 days! I found the second book and have yet to put it down since yesterday but did long enough to enjoy an amazing day out with C.

We went to Oly to check out the new REI that opened and of course oowed & awed and mentally putting together wish list's at least a mile long, then grabbed some lunch, and headed to the beach since we were both wanting to go for a drive. I had been wanting to show him the beach I survey for some time and he was definitely interested in seeing it. While at the beach we did my survey which was awesome. We froze because of the wind and didn't find any birds but did find this really interesting skeleton of a fish that had all kinds of armor like features to it and was well over a foot long. We talked endlessly and laughed like a couple of kids, just enjoying ourselves. He had never been to Ocean Shores so we stopped there on the way back and he drove us home.

Tree Frogs & Tidbits

Last friday I was house & dogsitting and it was pouring rain. Dogwalks consisted of exchanging of the dogs to the backyard as there was no way I was walking all dogs in the pouring rain and get sick. Trying to payoff the medical bills not create more ;-). So I'm sitting there in the recliner and watching tv and I keep hearing something that sounds like a frog. I'm texting C and telling him this and he isn't surprised. I come to find out this weekend from him that apparently there are tree frogs in the area. I had no idea. He said they were these little small frogs that sound like big frogs lol! So I looked it up and sure enough there are Pacific Tree Frogs in the area.

I'm not sure what is crazier, the sound of small frogs that sound like they are coming in the house or the dogs barking up a frenzy at the squirrels that were trying to scratch holes through the rafters a week ago in the roof over the backyard at C's house.

Less than a month to go for this quarter of school and then we will see what becomes of the internship. I'm hoping that it will continue and I'll get paid for my time which would be really nice.
