Yea! It's the weekend! I started the weekend yesterday with a trip to Market Street. I was looking for this...
Prosecco,
"The" Gentle-Sparkling Wine...
from Italy.
I read about it in the Dallas Morning News "Hot List". It is the "Hot Drink" of Summer. You know me, always wanting to be on the cutting edge (actually I guess that means I should be drinking the next new drink right now, not the hot new drink...whatever!). I don't drink often, but I do like champagne, so I thought I'd try this new sparkling wine after the week I've had.
It's pretty good, but I still like pink champagne better...or a gin & tonic.
While at Market Street, I got in on a flower sale. I guess they are doing it at 3:00 p.m. on Fridays during August. I got these beautiful hydrangeas (3 stems of them) for $6.
Lola started the weekend by getting a haircut. I really love fuzzy wuzzy Lola better than freshly groomed Lola, but she was starting to get knots in her hair, so it was time. You can see in the photo that she had so many knots in her foot (that she has been chewing on) that they shaved it.
While at Market Street, I got her a new toy...a beanie bone. I felt bad for her because she has been sick and been having to take so many pills. I guess I felt she hadn't received enough this week, what with the $75 invoice from the vet for the past pill order, $60 at the online vet pharmacy for more pills, $70 for a new bag of food from the vet, and $48 at the groomer. I really think it was a case of "what's another $5 for a toy!". It made her tail wag a lot and that is all that matters!
Usually a grooming makes her itchy. Here she is scratching her back by rolling all over the floor.
I feel bad because today I was suppose to be at my friend Suzanna's daughter Kate's first birthday party. I called Suz yesterday and flaked. They already had my present and I didn't have it in me to travel all the way to SW Fort Worth for the party. I am just trying to catch my breath this weekend and hopefully will manage to get my lazy butt to the movie theatre to see "Julie & Julia". If I go, I'll let you know what I think.
