This week we have been busy getting settled into our new place. I love it, but of course its right across the street from an elementary school, so there are usually at least 20 kids running around the dog walking area right in front of our building. First of all my dog is terrified of everything that moves besides the three of us, and second of all kids that age are loud and rude. Too young to know it, but too old for it to be cute. No offense to anyone reading this, but seriously.

My first example is the two boys who always play in the snow right behind our building. Everyday at about the same time they're out there sledding down the 5 foot slope and throwing snowballs. But while they're doing this they see who can yell the F word loudest. And then they sit across from eachother at the picnic table and fake a really loud fight acting like theyre stumbling around wrestling and joking about each others mothers while actually theyre just sitting there sucking on a juice box.

Yesterday I was walking my dog out front when school let out. She just wanted to sit there and shake to death because she was scared of all the little kids running around. But I was freezing and she already went to the bathroom so i pulled on her leash and told her to come on. But she was too scared to move so she just sat there while I drug her about two feet before saying "seriously lady? do you want to stay out here with all the children by yourself or do you want to come inside where its warm." Right after that some little boy yelled "HEYYY! Don't hurt the puppy!!" I asked him if his mother ever taught him not to talk to strangers. Apparently she did not.

Oh and we have 1/2 of a couch in our living room now. (Only the left side was ready for delivery until the end of the month.) But on the plus side we just finished cleaning everything up and getting rid of all the boxes. And our place is almost ready. Only one more room to go.
