Day three of snow :( Not that this is a lot or anything, but I still dislike the white stuff.

December 1, 2009

Had to take Skylar to the vet, again :( This was taken before we went into the office. The story doesn't end there. She was going to have surgery to fix something minor (a gash) but they wouldn't do surgery because her liver count) or something was elevated. It is supposed to be under 12. Well her's was over 400!!!! YIKES Even after tons of tests, they still don't know what is wrong with her :( Good news is that in under a month, she has gained 23 pounds!!! The doc thinks it is IBS. She is still eating, drinking, and going to the bathroom.

November 9, 2009

I uploaded some videos of Skylar as a puppy on Facebook. In the first photo she is watching the video and later we were looking at her baby photos. This was of course, after I found out that she chewed on my poor pink camera. I can't use some of the buttons - I so need a new camera. Anyone have any recommendations?

Looking at getting new furniture. The stuff we have now is falling apart. The couch and love seat that we have gets used everyday. My grandmother bought the set for us. The sofa has two recliners, but is very uncomfortable if you need to sleep across it.

This is the wasp nest-- or some winged creature that decided to make its home in my front bush. No wonder Randy got stung by a bee (or whatever lived there.)
