Busy, busy week

It certainly has been a very busy week here on Maple Street.  Caely has been studying for her finals; I have been helping her of course.  I make sure she stays focused, and I help highlight the important things.




I've also had to help her pack for her trip to Florida, last night I brought her a shirt I felt sure she'd want to take; she's leaving this Monday and will be gone all week.  I'll sure miss her. Wednesday was Cinco de Mayo and was great fun around here.  Mom went for a haircut, then came home and cooked a Mexican dinner for us!  We even had margarita's!  It was so good....we all ate WAY too much.  The rice was my favorite and her homemade guacomole.  Yummmm.  I have had to take over watching the beans and the way they recycle.  I check the the coal scuttle (it's where Mom puts the washed stuff to go outside into the big bin) for the small water bottles the beans are always drinking from.  I make them take the caps off, throw them away and then I squash the bottle down flat.  Sometimes, these beans can be quite a bit of work....all the training they require, whew!  But, at the end of the day when I sit down with one of them and rub their hand with my head....and they smile, it's worth it.  Who says beans aren't as evolved as canines?
