We're Adopting!!!!


This is the little lady I'm trying to adopt. Her name is Mitsy and I get to meet her on Sunday! I'm so excited! I cannot believe that Warren acquiesced! Wheeeeeeeeee!!!

She is a Shih Tzu. My first love is a Lhasa Apso but they seem really hard to come by. I am working with Colorado Shih Tzu and Maltese Rescue.

My girlfriend, Kim, does Mastiff Rescue. She pointed me in the right direction.

Miss Mitsy was in a puppy mill. :(

She is 3 years old, just got spayed, got all her shots, her teeth cleaned, and is recovering from kennel cough. She should be done with those treatments next week. With any luck we can bring her home.

Obviously it depends on whether or not she is 'the one'. The foster mom has 5 dogs. Who knows? Someone else could steal my heart.

Other than that, everyone else in the house is SICK! They have the coughing crud, bordering on bronchitis. Warren is even going to the doctor tomorrow........that's how bad it is.

I can only hope I don't get it.

No Witty Title Here

I'm not even sure I have anything witty to say. We had a really lovely morning, nice and quiet and relaxing. We had to take Hayley to get science project supplies and then stopped for lunch at Johnny Carino's. Hayley begged and pleaded for us to take her to the movies. We ended up seeing Marley and Me. It was a fabulously lighthearted, feel good movie....up until the last 20 minutes or so. It was just a bit too emotional for me, at least. Five tissues, at least. I'm still heart palpitating on a daily basis, although not as much as I did the first week. I'll have to get back to you on other stuff, because, quite frankly, I just can't think of anything to write.

Thoughts

For some reason I've been thinking about people from my past lately. I'm sure it's a rather melancholy thing we are all want to do from time to time. I was doing a bit of 'stalking' on my space, just to see what a former friends former boyfriend was up to. Jodi sort of went off the deep end in about 2003, left her husband of nearly 20 years, hooked up with an old high school flame. The got together, broke up, got together, broke up, etc, until she finally turned up pregnant at the age of about 40 ish something. OUCH. Well, she stopped speaking to me and I guess I wonder what she's up to. I wonder a lot about Simon, too. The way he just 'disappeared' still bothers me. But, in being realistic, had he not just vanished, I wouldn't be where I am today. So, I guess I should thank him, not just for leaving, but for the years we spent together. I know that it was all just a journey, incredible at times, but a journey to lead me to where I am now.

6 Months of Doctor's

Ok, so sounds like Hayley now has either bronchitis or pnuemonia.............along with her Mono. Dad is taking her to the doctor this afternoon so we should know something by dinner time. So, after the gall bladder/appendix in September, the portal vein thrombosis in October, the shots, the doctor visits, back to the hospital in December, thought we were getting better in January, got the Mono in February, and now maybe Bronchitis in March.........holy smokes. Wonder if she's even going to make it through 8th grade? Wonder.
