Update on the Dog Potty Situation

Okay, so.  My last plan didn't work so well.

Why?

Basically because I'm a terrible gardener.  I'm pretty confident that if I'd watered the grass everyday, both to water the grass and to dilute the urine, this would have worked great.  Neglected as it was this lasted for like 2 months (watered every few days...).  Eventually all the grass died, mostly because I slowly stopped watering it.  Poo was hard to pick up out of the grass because it got pretty long, so I think a flatter groundcover would have been smarter (Stepables, anyone?).

I'm moving to Arizona!

So, the plan is to move to Arizona.

Why?

Lots of reasons:
1) My boyfriend just got into a PhD program there
2) Sunshine.  That's an average of 211 days of full-sun sunshine.
3) It's closer to home for me, v
isiting my parents would take a couple hours on a plane (read: NOT 6-7+hrs like now)
4) There are lots of jobs there
5) I could afford to potentially buy a house there
6) Did I mention sunshine?  Think 296 days of at least partially sunny days on average.
7) I could live in a townhouse or house with a yard for Roxy
8) It's not Oregon.
9) Sunshine!!!  It snowed here last week.  It was 85 degrees there.
