Back in October my fiance and I got a new kitty to add to our two cat household. My older two boys were 8.5 at the time and the process of bringing in a new kitty took time. Jake welcomed our new kitty with open arms, but Bear was very sensitive and very scared. He hid and hissed and growled...

Finally. Today was the first day. It was really exciting for me. I had College Reading and College Success today. Both professors are ladies and they're sooo nice. I really like em (at least for now, we'll see how it goes as I get further into the term, lol). Already have homework. Hah. Tomorrow...

I got a surprise visit from Hissy and her husband Mike AND her dogs Chyna and Vader!!!! It was absolutely WONDERFUL! Especially after everything I've been through lately with my brother being stranded in New Orleans during this whole Katrina catastrophe. That was just the pick-me-up I needed...

That's Right! After 6 LONG days of vet hospitalization Drew is *FINALLY* well enough to come home. His temperature is down, he hasn't thrown up in almost 72 hours, and he had a bowel movement last night (which means he ate food and digested it and everything woohoo!). I AM SO FREAKING...

Drew-Bear (Get a load of the look on his face!) Me & Jake (He wanted to chew on the camera more than be still for a picture) Sebastian (He loved laying on that monitor.. when we got rid of it he never laid on another monitor.. just this particular one) Jake (Finally got him to be still for...

As I posted in the health/nutrition forum... one of my boys (Drew) is sick and vomiting a lot. He was taken to a cat only clinic this morning. They will be examining him and I'm supposed to call them by 2:30 today if I haven't heard from them. I'm worried to death. I've been on the verge of...

The past two days one of my boys (Drew) has been throwing up. I thought maybe he had an upset tummy and that it would pass, but it hasn't. He's continually trying to throw up.. but now since he doesn't have anything in his tummy all that comes up is a foam like substance. He's also doing a...

Maybe I'm just bonkers, but whenever I press the "quick reply" button it always acts as if I press the "quote and reply" button. So instead of a quick reply it puts in a quote, and I have to delete that quote to reply. One other thing that isn't working for me (I'm sure it's probably...

Today has been an emotional day. Good and bad. I woke up this morning with a phone call from my mom. She said that her and Dave (my new stepdad of 2.5 years) have decided that they are gonna pay for my first term of tuition. So they are sending me a $1000 check via mail to pay for tuition and to...

I've lost 5 lbs in one week by working out and drinking LOTS of water! I'm so happy, and I'm being quite silly because this morning I was dancing around my apartment like I had won the lottery or something! LOL! I'm 110lbs overweight. My goal is to lose it all by this time next year! Sooner...

I have to write an essay for a scholarship application. The topic of the essay is "What is the most important invention in the last 50 years?" I have the essay written (hehe I didn't want you to write it for me!!). I'd just like opinions and someone that actually writes (I'm not that great of a...

I have to go get a "blood gas" done. Which means they stick a needle approximately .5-1 inch into my wrist, puncture my arterie, and draw blood. OMG! When my doctor told me this my face started turning really red and I started sweating bullets . He said "I'm not gonna lie to you. It hurts". My...

I thought I'd share a little about what I've been going through and what I'm still enduring, *and* why I seemingly disappeared for a year. Last time I was really writing here I had some scary yet exciting news. I shared this news with a friend here. Not long afterward I miscarried...

Just got back from the doctors. My blood work came back. Yay, I have perfect glucose (sp) levels and my cholestoral is perfect as well. My thyroid gland seems to be sluggish which in turn is making my metabolism sluggish. However he said that it's not significant enough to warrant medication and...

Hey everyone! Been a long long time. Glad to see this place is still hopping. I've been through hell in a handbasket but I'm recovering okay. Mary Anne -- HEY! I've missed you. Drop me a line or call sometime and let me know you and family are good. You've been in my thoughts a lot...

I just got a big big craving for peanut butter and jelly. That is my ALL TIME favorite childhood snack. My great-grandmother makes the best ones and she had em ready for me after school every day. She's still alive and her pb&j still kicks butt!!! What's your favorite childhood snack?

The vet said to put neosporin on my cat's cut. I did (it was on his ear) and he managed to lick it off via his paw. Now he's throwing up everywhere. Is this toxic?!!?! Hellp mee.

So I *finally* got to meet Hissy and her husband Mike. Let me tell you I had the most fun I've had in a loooong time. First things first, Craig and I met Kenai. We both fell head over heels in love with her. She's so beautiful and soooooooooooo sweet. She talks too. Such a beauty. Off and on...
