New addition

We picked up another dog on Saturday. KC, who we adopted 1 month ago from the humane society in fort worth, needed a companion other than us. A friend of my husband's at work had some friends who found this stray Brittany wondering around a country road near Terrell. We decided to have a look at him. He's a sweet, mild tempered dog but he's been a bit of trouble. We took him to the vet, got him his shots, had his paw looked at (it was bleeding a little) and brough him home. He's also rail thin. He had probably stepped on a thorn or something while on his own and he's taking antibiotics and pain pills for it and he has to wear one of those Elizabethan collars. He looks pathetic. Over the last two days he has gotten more energy. This morning his paw was bleeding a little. He most likely stepped on something in the backyard when they went out to pee this morning. The kids really like him. I'm partial to my girl KC though. Sammy (Theresa named him) is fine, but I guess I have a sweet spot for my girl. We're giving the dog a week to see how he works out, but something tells me that we have another mouth to feed. Our house is getting quite full.....of love.

one of those weeks?

Ever have one of those weeks where you just can't seem to get your head in the game? Well I'm having one. I have not been able to focus all week. There's nothing in particular on my mind. I wish I could take a vacation. I only have a few days remaining of my PTO so that's not an option. Maybe that's why I'm in a pickle. I had to take 1/2 day on Monday because my daughter was sick which used a portion of my few remaining days. That is how I mainly use my time...on sick leave for either the kids or me. I really don't like the allergy seasons. They wreck havoc on me and the kids which leads to colds and time missed from school and work. I had better get some work done. Gotta bring in that paycheck.

Today's my birthday

Well, I turn 36 today. What a strange number. When I was younger, I thought "oh wow...36 is old", but now as I turn 36, I feel like "another year has gone by and by golly I still feel young". Perspective is a funny thing. No special plans tonight. I plan on just putting my feet up and doing nothing...we'll see how THAT goes! ha ha ha A Mom's work is never done, right? I had better get to work.....I'm not getting paid to sit here and blog....good day everyone.
