Win-Win

This week was a series of win-wins for us. On the elections front, we saw AZ, CA, and FL pass marriage amendments. I guess that's more like a win, win, win! The rest of the political scene leaves me uninspired...'nuff said.

On the business front, the county park that Don is working on developing is coming along well, and the critter gitter-ing has kept us busy which is a good thing (this week has been all about bats and rats and pigeons). So on the two work fronts, it's another win-win!

Yesterday we had a yard sale. We got rid of a lot of stuff AND we made a chunk of money. That's a big win-win!

Don signed up to play on a city-league soccer team as the goalie. Never mind that he hasn't played since he was in the Army (1980's) and has never been a goalie. We started practicing at the school this week. I kicked the ball at him as hard as I could and got some good exercise, and he practiced diving on balls and protecting the goal. We both enjoyed the time; chalk up another win-win!

We had two birthdays this last week: Makayle turned 7 and Carter turned 2! I can't believe how quickly they are growing up! Kids and grandkids...love and joy...win-win!

This week we are headed up to the land for a few days. Trooper has never been on a trip with us, but if he reacts to the land and the space like Mia, his going to experience a few days of doggy heaven. And since we've been pushing pretty hard these last few months and need some down time and the dogs need some adventure, this week is sure to be a win-win for all of us!
