Okay, so I walk outside this morning to start the Jeep, and the snowdrops have already popped up!!!! NO! Not yet, it's too early. I love snowdrops, but if they come up now, they will be dead and gone by the time the crocuses come out. This weather has everything all messed up.
Spent the morning at the office, rearranging part of it and finding the right layout. Got the desk moved, and then measured everything and mapped out the windows, doors, and outlets. Tonight I'll play with the layout using furniture cut-outs made of card stock before we start moving all the really heavy stuff.
And what goes around, comes around. Got home and found a note from the Police Department hanging from the door knob. Seems the neighbs are getting even with us for all those years their dogs barked non-stop, at all hours of the day and night. I know Rum and Allie will bark if there are people walking around in the yard, and the other neighbs let their dogs run loose (all the time), and so naturally Rum and Allie bark at them. But there is a huge difference between having to listen to outdoor dogs barking all day and all night, and listening to indoor dogs that occasionally bark when they go outside for a couple of hours. Thing is, we never called the cops; we talked directly to our neighbs and asked them to do something about it during the night...you know, when most people are trying to sleep. Nothing happened, until the dogs died of natural causes.
Note from Police Department reads "Animal Violation - Complaint of dogs barking constantly & disturbing the neighbors. Neighbors are extremely upset and would like the matter taken care of." Hmmm, constantly as in day and night? Maybe I'll take Robin's suggestion and bake them some cookies laced with Exlax. That ought to take care of "the matter"!!!!
Those are beautiful, I don't think I ever saw those in Spokane. What did your note from the cops say?
