They fight, they bite! They fight and bite and fight! Fight fight fight, Bite bite bite! The Itchy and Scratchy show!

This is stuck in my head all morning. Appropriate enough since today is day one of the 'new' business office hours, people are tense and bitchy, and my jaw hurts like a son of a gun, and has all weekend. After effects of an intense cleaning of my back molar, I'm sure, but what a pain in the neck...Literally.

Word(s) of the day: BUSY BODY

Lexie log: We spent the weekend up in the thicket. We all enjoyed it, especially the coolness of the forest vs. our house. Lexie continued her project of reorganizing the gravel driveway. She also enjoyed being able to go play the kurzweil synthesizer any time she wanted. At some point each day, she started missing the cats and wanted to go home. She saw her first real life snake. Actually two of them on Sunday. We walked the length of the path Grampa Dad and Grammy made. When she gets to the end, she turns around, doesn't want to venture off the wood chip path to the dirt one. No one has walked the trails for a couple of weeks, so basically we were on web removal duty. Lexie took care of any up to three feet, I had the higher elevations. -- We discovered last night that she loves Hagen Das Cherry Vanilla ice cream.

Today I'm grateful for Frank and Lexie, swim goggles, sanity, Betty's meatloaf, water, flip flops, vacation, and lots of other stuff that escapes me at the moment.
