So its Friday. Candice got back last week and she came over with her bf for dinner on Wednesday. It was good to see her, she had a fun time and got to experience both southern hospitality and the racism that is still rampant in areas of the US.
Today the Direct TV person is moving my receiver to my new den. Yes folks no more TV in the living room, which is a huge pet peeve of mine. I feel the living room/dinning room (mine is a combo)is for social interaction, and family time. If someone puts on the TV that ends quickly. If you want to watch TV, go to the den so everyone does not have to watch with you.
This stems from a variety of things. I hate watching the shows the kids used to watch, I would prefer quiet, and at the old house this is the way I set things up, but the house was huge and the den had built in everything for the TV and other components.
Here I have a spare bedroom that works as a small den. One whole wall is built in shelves which will be great for a flat panel once I get around to buying one (months from now I am sure).
I fit a love seat and 2 chairs in it, perfect for TV viewing. So the last thing to do was to have the TV moved. Well since that part of the house is built on a slab it has become a big project to get the cables for the Direct TV run there. He was under the house, now on the roof. Its gonna happen its just taking hours. Once the TV is installed I will set up the rest of the room. Have a couple of hours of stuff to do, then hang some pictures on the wall. Tonight I will be watching TV in that room. Not to mention it is on the NW corner of the house and is the coolest room in the summer time.
I am taking Daisy to a trainer this afternoon. She has issues when going for walks and seeing other dogs. So i am going to see what I can do to work on it. I think the main problem is Roscoe. He goes crazy then Daisy follows suite. We have pretty much confirmed this as yesterday walking Daisy with out Roscoe and things were much better.
This last week at work was really hell. My boss is a complete asshole. It is amazing what a thoughtless, lazy, jerk he is.

Hellooo Der! -- I spent way too much time at some of the links in your sidebar so now I have to go.....and I can't look anymore for your name, so I'll just say "Hi, there" How are you?
Whenever I see an URL I don't recognize on my sitemeter I get nosy and gotta see who it is. Well, I'm glad I stopped in today. Any blogpage that features dogs and cats is just about perfect as far as I'm concerned. Har Har.
So come on over again, I'm usually hanging around somewhere there. Maybe you could tell me what I should call you, your name or whatever, OK? Cool.
Actually moving the TV sounds like a great idea! I find that as soon as a TV is turned on there is no more social interaction.
Looks like Mom will be taking Roscoe and Daisy on separate walks! I hope it works out.
P.S. The rearranging of tv/furniture/rooms sounds wonderful!
