Time to Kill...

I have a few minutes to kill before my next round of paperwork comes through. So, here's a quick update to the my wacky world.
My brother is headed to West Palm Beach this weekend for some zoo club get away. That means I have 2 days of solitude. Well, almost. I still have 3 dogs and a bird that will require my attention. But they are easily pacified. What counts is that I won't have to clean up after my brother, entertain my brother, or have to hear my brother. YIPEE!
We're expected to get some serious rain this weekend. Hurricane Dennis is rolling through. He isn't expected to hit our area - but we'll definitely get some outer rain showers. So, "he" is being a saint and mowing my grass for me - while I type this actually. He was going to sneak out of work to go do it before he heads north. I'm not sure if he feels bad for me, or just wants to help me out since I'm helping him out - but either way I appreciate the jester. Mowing isn't a very girlie chore - even though I have no problem doing it.
He may be coming by. I told him my brother was out - so he may come hang out - but then again I won't hold my breath.
Amanda came by the other night. It was the first we've talked since the wedding. Things are cool between us. Both of our angers have simmered down and she even invited me to a cook out this Saturday. I'll probably go - don't want to deny her 2 invites in a month - I will be on the shit list then!
Other then that - my only mission this weekend is to rid my house of the smell of dog. One dog is bad enough - throw 2 more to the mix and you have stink. So I plan to hit Walmart - buy some dog food and human food then stock up on Febreeze! I tried searching the web for suggestions on how to rid the house of smell - no real help. The bad thing is that the new additions like to lay on the couch and bed (I'll have to wash bedding) so everything smells like them. Fortunately, my dog isn't smart enough to figure out how to jump that high.
Should be a relatively calm weekend. Much needed!
I've also decided to take the trip up north at the end of this month. So that means I need to figure out what kind of funds I'll need. I'll also have to set up to have the office covered. I SO NEED A WEEK HOME! Not to mention the 14 hour drive up there, by myself, will do my mind some good!
Paperwork calls!
