Geez...life would be downright boring without dogs and/or kids.
April: is due back from Mexico tomorrow. She has spent most of her week down there in the hospital. She has apparently been the sickest she has ever been in her life. It started with tingly arm, painful chest and severe trots. Deadly trots. The doctor finally called an ambulance and sent her to the hospital and there she's been til this morning. They thought it was a number of things, ran the whole gambit of tests, iv'ed her etc...long ugly story short...its a nasty little parasite...the kind that can do permanent damage. Its a good thing they caught it early. She was finally discharged this morning. Poor poor Myles. I feel pretty bad for him. I don't think this week turned out like he thought it would. Thats four thousand down the crapper.
Molly: Stupid damned dog. She has that skin problem I was mentioning and she will not stop scratching and chewing on herself. Last night she chewed a big gaping bloody hole in her back haunch. I don't have any patience for much but especially not for stupidity. And chewing a hole in your side is just plain stupid. I am NOT putting another home made cone on her head and I am not following her around making her stop. She can chew herself til she disappears, dumb dog. Her appointment with the vet is tomorrow afternoon. And there goes another 200. One day those 200 bucks for this and that are going to run out. Life was a lot simpler when I was as poor as a church mouse.
Monte's friend Curtis is coming up from Vancouver today. I like him. He is a photographer...a professional one. His pictures are beautiful. He is an interesting person as well. He spent three months a few years ago by himself in India. Lots of stories there. I think the boys are planning to make music. He is also a musician. He is staying until Tuesday.
Today Monte and I are organizing all the gifts we bought for that family. I am also physically going to actually get those purses filled. I hope all the stuff fits! Last night I finally put the lights on the tree and its beautiful!!!! Now today I must do the ornaments. I don't have a tree topper.
Well we filled to the brim six awesome hardly used purses. I think I know how a hoarder feels. I LOVE those purses. Spod bought them all for me and I never used them but maybe once. But even though I never use purses, I love them. Its so irrational. But today, it hurt, actually hurt, to give them away. I almost changed my mind about two or three of them. They are beautiful...Guess, Fossil (that one is amazing), Coach, FoliFoli, achhhhh I am not going to think about it. There are women out there that will love them.
Well its the middle of Friday. I must get dressed at least. I see a massive giant parcel has been left on my front porch. I will presume it is my headboard at last. When I get it situated I shall take a pic. And I will take a pic of the tree. I think its going to be great...even without a topper! TTYL
Oh my GOD....I had no idea. Where were they in Mexico? We have been in Puerto Vallarta for the past two weeks. If near here, we would have gone to see what help we could be...
