Bad Mother

So tomorrow I am going to be the worst dog mother in the world. We are getting Archer our 5 year old puggle fixed tomorrow morning. Why are we doing this at such an old age for him you ask, he has started making a habit of peeing on my curtains and "Shrek" chairs in my brand new living room, where I teach piano, leaving a horrible smell. This is my last resort to try and get Archer more well behaved or Matt wants him gone. I won't let Matt get rid of him but I hope this does the trick. We originally wanted to breed Arch, but we don't want to get another dog.

This weekend Matt and I did a bunch of yard work to our front lawn. We did four steps, filled in any holes where the sod shrunk put some started soil down, fertilized, seeds, then some more started soil to cover the seeds so the birds don't eat all the seeds and it better work or I will be so mad because my back is now killing me.

We should have 3 more neighbors by the end of November. Our little subdivision is getting pretty full. Most of the houses for phase one have their frame work done. Only another 2.5 years of construction left before all the houses should be done.

Well that's about all here.

Ich liebe die Jahreszeit Herbst!!!!

I love the Fall!!!! This is my second time living on the east coast during fall, with the beautiful leaves changing colors to bright red, yellow and orange. Some of the leaves have started the change but a majority won't be until the end of the month. I also love the beautiful weather as well. Although this week has been seasonably warm but everything else has been so nice. I will have some pictures later this month of the leaves changing.

- Update on how things are going. -

Well Matt was in AZ for a week for military training and was going to be there from September till December but he was sent home early because of his knee injury from over a year ago. Now we have to work with the military to get Matt on some paperwork allowing him to not run for the rest of his military career. Matt has been home for a few weeks now, and it really is nice for him to be home.

I now have 15 students ranging from 5 years old to 55 years old. Teaching has been such a wonderful opportunity for me and I love it. I am so proud of my students as they are progressing very well and fast. I also found a recital location. Our little town, Louisa, has been building an arts center. I just thought that it was for Art art not all fine arts. But they are completing a 200 seat auditorium. They also received a donated Steinway Grand Piano. The auditorium will be completed in April and that is when I was planning on having my first recital. Things are working out so well! Any hew. Hope all is well for you and your family!!
