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.

Monday, Monday

This was Valentine's weekend and we really did have a lovely Day. We had some time a lone and spent a lovely dinner at our favorite place: Panzano's. The food was delicious, the wine wonderful, and the people watching spectacular. Warren really seemed to love the watch I gave him and I think was really touched that I 'took him' out for dinner. He gave me a gorgeous necklace and we broached the subject of 'forever' without actually saying anything. I love how we dance around that subject without coming to a conclusion, however, I think it's just a matter of time. Missy continues to make strides (and not jsut walking my ass off). She has gotten into this thing about not coming out of the bedroom for other people. However, this morning as I was trying to get her ready for her walk she just jumped off of the sofa. Twice. I think in her excitement to go she forgot about the devil incarnate (better known as Lucy, the cat). We have taken to keeping Lucy in ...

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.

Both Sides Now

      I haven't written about dad's actual death yet, it still hurts too much and I fear the tears would never stop.      Over the last few months mom has gone on a spree, giving away and donating things they've collected over the 50 plus years of marriage.  I don't think she realized just how much 'stuff' they had.        Dad was a picture taker.  It seems like he was always getting his camera out.  Growing up it seems that he was always taking the same group picture, the same photo of a family dinner, the same photo of holidays.  The same faces, the same Christmas tree, the same Thanksgiving table.  What I didn't realize until after he was gone and mom started going through boxes upon boxes of these pictures was that he was documenting the history of our family.  Our lives.        My throat gets tight and my eyes well with tears thinking about how our...
