{One tired Pup}

Well...someone I know, not naming names {Starts with a C, furry, short and brown} can't hang with her new fit and trim mom! This is my sweet girl after we went 2 miles tonight. I had to pick her up and carry her part of the time. I guess that just means she will have to go with me more!

Dear Mom and Dad:

As you can tell by my incessant barking at midnight {or later} I am not really comfortable in my bed, crate, cage, whatever you want to call it. I get a bit claustrophobic and I would much rather sleep with you- that way, I am able to wake you up to play whenever I want! Since I know that is not an option I perused Amazon today when you were at work, trying to kill time until you get home and give me more ice cubes, and I came across these beauties. Take a look, I think they will all go nicely with the look I am trying to achieve in my room.

For when I am feeling preppy...

For when I am feeling sassy...

For when I am feeling girly...

For when I am feeling young at heart...

So, take a look and let me know what you think. I love you bunches, and just remember that I wouldn't bark in the middle of the night if you would just let me stay with you. I'm just throwing that out there...

Love,
Charlotte

{Bad case of the Mondays}

Hello all. I am quite sad to be at the office today, I love these summer hours- leaving at 1:00 on Friday makes the weekend seem so much longer! We had a jam packed weekend, it was wonderful!

• I checked out the Braselton library for the first time on Friday afternoon- too cute! I got a couple of books and 2 books on tape. I have never listened to a book on tape before, I LOVE to read so I thought I would be missing out on something. Not the case, AT ALL. I have an hour or more commute each way so this is the perfect solution! Right now I am listening to Hissy Fit by Mary Kay Andrews, SO CUTE!! Since my wedding reception was in Madison and my parents live down there is holds a special place in my heart.
  



• Laid out with Lauren at the Traditions pool. Love this neighborhood, such pretty houses!



• Got a mani and a pedi, I don't love my toes and fingers unless they are BRIGHT red!



• Strolled though the Braselton Antique stores, saw about a millions things I can't live without. Well, I guess I can live without them, I didn't buy a thing!



• Cooked out and chilled in the backyard with Charlotte and a yummy Gin and Tonic on Saturday night. We watched Finding Amanda on pay per view, it isn't out yet but had a GREAT cast. It was a good movie, had some hilarious lines!

• Played golf with the in laws on Sunday afternoon at The University of Georgia course. I shot a 122, not bad for the 3 time I have ever played!! My goodness are Chad and Clay intense about this game!



• Looked at a Civic Hybrids and a Prius. Keeping our fingers crossed that the used Prius we found will still be available tomorrow when Chad goes to talk to them! It is hard to believe that we would save money if we got this car...stupid gas guzzling SUV.

Oh, and by the way...the cleaning crew came on Friday and my house is AMAZING! I don't think it has ever been this clean. Everything is so shiny! I highly recomend Razzle Dazzle!

About a month ago, maybe more, my parents had to put our sweet cat Sally to sleep. This cat was HUGE, about 20 pounds, but was a sweet kitty we have had since I was a junior in high school. That's 10 years for those who are counting...My momma was so upset, it was just heartbreaking. Well...they have adopted again! Introducing Kitty- he doesn't have a name, my parents can't agree on anything! My dad only like Pedro and Rascal, gag...I am all for Jasper, that's my favorite! He is so cute, I can't wait to meet him!! Jasper and sister Maggie
