Go Browns!!

porkchop 005 porkchop 008 I’m sure Scott will appreciate my title. Scott and David watched the Browns on Monday. I had a work meeting and didn’t get to catch the full game but I made it back in time to bring more beer annnd a orange a white sweater for porkchop. :-) It’s really cute on him and I think it actually put a big smile on Scott’s face, oh, and seeing the Browns win.

Right now Porkchop and “daddy:” are playing. I like it when Scott and Porkchop are all cuddly with each other. I capture a picture of them cuddling every now and then.porkchop 004mix 009

Porkchop got fixed last week. I’m sorry Mom and Scott’s mommy, but y’all will not be great grandmothers any time soon. lol Porkchop was kind of bonkers last week. He walked around crying for the first day and kept trying to run around the second day. He wasn’t allowed to play for at least 3 days which made for a very long 3 days. He was babied more than ever last week. He is back to being superporkers this week.

mix 057mix 045Last week I had extra time to do some baking since I wasn’t chasing Porkchop around the apartment. I actually got a little carried away. I made the best banana bread (it had a sugar glaze), chocolate chip cookies, I found a recipe for Scotties (thought that was cute, a must make) and I made cookie dough truffles. The cookie dough truffles was an actual recipe, therefore it didn’t have any raw eggs.

It’s crazy how the year is nearing an end! It’s gone by soooo fast. Next week will already be Thanksgiving. It’ll be the very first holiday Scott and I will be spending together. Crazy huh?! Last year Scott was in Ohio for Thanksgiving, Christmas, & New Years. He was out of town on V-day, we both worked on St. Patty’s, Easter, 4th of July, and Halloween. We will be having Thanksgiving at our friend Natalie and Greg’s house. I’m making the Turkey annnd knowing Natalie I might be making/”assisting” with more. hehe

Scott started playing some Christmas music…awe, how can I not love him! And on a last note Scott misses you Momma Connie. :-)

Political Porkchops

Soooo Scott’s in California working on his tan (okay, just the working) and Porkchop and I are once again hanging out. Scott and I voted last week and I was really hoping that our votes would be the 2 Texas needed. I was told my vote wouldn’t make a difference in Texas but I was being optimistic. :-D Regardless of Texas’ outcome Obama won. I predicted Obama and told Scott it would be a landslide win. Porkchop and I are celebrating at home.

Regardless of your political stand point you can’t deny his cuteness! :-D If I ever go into politics, Porkchop will be campaigning for me. His shirt says “I voted for change”.

I’m watching Obama’s speech right now. How moving and amazing is this, history in the making. I’m really excited for this change, our nation needed this and I think Obama is going to be a great president. With his win, change has already begun. Several people have told me that they don’t like Obama but never have anything to support their opinion. I have even been told that Obama will be shot. How horrid is that and the people who make those kind statements only feed the fire of racism and are ignorant. I don’t care who you are, republican, democratic, white, black, Indian or a Porkchop, Obama’s speech moving and gives this nation hope. My favorite part was about the Atlanta woman who couldn’t vote before because she was black and everything she went through and how she lived to vote and see the first black president.

On a different note:

Last week Porkchop and I dressed up for halloween. Scott and I got Porkchop a Frankenstein hat. His ears are a tad too big and he was more interested in chewing on it. That being said he was only Frankenstein for a minute. I on the other hand only dressed up for work. I was a tennis player. I had a tennis skirt and used a shirt I had from high school. It wasn’t very festive but it was free and how can you go wrong with that?
