Haven’t Blogged in a While…

But I will catch up tomorrow.

Today wasn’t the best of days.

I slipped getting out of the shower on Friday before work and hit my back on the toilet on the way down. OUCH! I had a really sore weekend, but I am so much better now. Thank God. And my husband did a great job taking care of me and dealing with my hurty, crabby ass. Thanks a lot, hun! (heh, I KNOW he reads this!)

THEN…tonight, our poor epileptic puppa, Topaz, has not one but 2 Grand Mal seizures. They were a few hours apart, but both were weird and not the norm…which worries me a bit. We’re gonna keep an eye on him and hope and PRAY he doesn’t have another one anytime soon! Poor P!

So basically, I spent my weekend on some killer pain meds and sleep aids, and just crabby! YEAH…great weekend.

Ugh, it’s back to work tomorrow! At least it’s a pay week and I get to play with some of the money…woo hoo! I already have a little list going.

  • External “A” drive (I have a TON of pictures on Floppy disks (I had a Sony Mavica) and need to transfer them to CD…but the PC we have doesn’t even HAVE an “A” drive! LOL)
  • Blank CD’s for the pictures!
  • USB hub for my desk…too many USB type things, not enough ports!
  • Something to hold papers! (So stupid, but good lord, I could use this!)
  • New Glasses!

I think I’m forgetting something…but that’s all I can remember right now. It’s written down and in my iPod case.

Also, I want to do some home improvement type things…a gutter for the front of our house, a new storm door on the back…a new towel bar for the bathroom since I pulled the one we have down off the dam wall! LOL

Hopefully nothing comes up between now and then and I can play with some of this money. New things are fun! LOL I need a bit of retail therapy in my life!

Anyways, if anyone out there is reading this…hope you had a better weekend than I did, and have a great week!

I just love those cheesy glitter myspace graphics! …ok back on track!… Happy 4th of July!! I hope everyone is having a great weekend. We don’t have any solid plans for our 4th. We may go see fireworks at my sister’s house tonight, but I am not sure yet. I’d like to take some photos of the ‘works with my new camera. We still have some time to decide. We were going to BBQ burgers, but my husband isn’t feeling well, so I think we may just order from Texas Roadhouse or something. Oooh maybe Chili’s…they have *really* good ribs! hmm…I’ll have to suggest that instead! lol

A quick update on Miss seizure kitty, Beans…so far she’s been doing well. No more seizures as far as we know. She’s actually more friendly now if that is even possible! Maybe she had a near-death experience and it changed her a bit…who knows. But she’s doing good. I really hope it was a fluke thing. So odd though…2 animals who have had seizures. Weird!

Yesterday was the 2nd of many wedding related sweatshops! We addressed, labeled and stamped my sister’s wedding invites. She wasn’t as organized with her addresses and names as my mother liked, so we had to get that in order as we went along. What should have been a couple hour job ended up being 10 hours! Which was fine, I’m not complaining at all. We had a good time…laughed a lot and in the end, it’s done. And we got to see her puppy, Samson! He’s such a cutie! He’s a mastiff mix…and omg he’s gonna be a MONSTER!

I took a lot of pictures, but this is one of my favorites. My dad had come over to drop something off and brought their dog, Mickey…well Mickey and Sam don’t get along really well so he had to take Mickey home and Sam was just sitting at the gate watching my dad and Mickey get back into the car. It was really cute.

Time to go discuss dinner plans with the hubbs…before I go, let me share a funny video! It is is HILAROUS! I haven’t ever seen it before. I swear, this could be any one of our boys…especially Malcolm and Alex! Enjoy!
