Hey all! Hope you had a great day! Late night of work here....got home about an hour or so ago....time for bed....gotta get rest for the Pines tomorrow!

Another sign of Christmas...my Mom got some of her decorations out. I'm sorry, this is my home now, but there is no place like Mom's for Christmas...just has that special feeling....know what I mean?

Have a great Pines day!

Hello everyone.
I've had a very stressful past 24 hours. Yesterday, my mom put Sergeant's flea & tick product on my cat Louie. A few hours later, Louie had a seizure. This consisted of him shaking, twitching, drooling excessively, and being unable to walk. We had to rush him to the nearest animal hospital where we were immediately charged $600, and that was the minimum payment. We struggled to pull together the money, but we had to, for Louie. He had to spend the night there, and he had another seizure. In the morning, we were told we was in critical condition all night and we need to take him to another vet, but we don't know if we can because we will be charged another $600, and we simply cannot afford it.
This cat is like my baby, and I pray to God that he will get better.
And as a warning to you all who have pets: DO NOT USE SERGEANT'S OR HARTZ FLEA & TICK PRODUCTS.
I don't know why these products are still on the market! Reviews online say that these have caused dogs and cats to be blinded, have seizures, and even die.
So please, be careful with the products you use on your pets!

Oh Snowangel.....My heart goes out to you !! Praying for Louie xo

Holy Frijoles, Batman !!! I am so stressed. What a night !!

Good evening, Christmas family.

I got on early today thinking I would make a little extra time and much to my suprise, there was hardly any radiology !! I don't know if this is because it was a slow day on the rad front or if I just screwed up too many times.....In any case, I had to type big ol'fat goobers all night !!! (well....I dont actually know that they were fat and that doesn't matter anyway, but they WERE DEFINITELY GOOBERS !!)

If I would have had one more ESL tonight I think my brain would have exploded (itwould be a small explosion).

Ey Yi YI.....I wrote to one of the folks in charge and asked what's up with the rad disappearing......Don't know if she is going to like my questioning but I felt I had to ask.....

Snowangel - Praying for your baby,Louie

Ms. Christmas - Praying that all goes well with your surgery

Christmasstar - I am sure whatever you decide regarding driving truck will be the right thing !! ((HUGS))

I hope all have a Christmassy evening xo

Keeping my fingers crossed! Hope you get it! I know what a new home can do for you!!

hope you get more time to be relaxed!!

Stressful day at work, I had to train with my store manager today, I have known her for years, but I have always felt she has never really liked me much. It worked out well, I learned a lot but I still don't feel comfortable around her. Day off tomorrow, I don't have much planned it is supposed to rain, so raking is more than likely out.

enjoy your day off! What a shame you and your store manager don't get along... but you can't get along with every one right?

Another sign of Christmas...my Mom got some of her decorations out. I'm sorry, this is my home now, but there is no place like Mom's for Christmas...just has that special feeling....know what I mean?

who are right, that's a very special feeling!

Good morning fellow Christmas lovers. Exams are over and I'm taking the day off. Right now, I am watching Family Guy and having one heck of a time. My plans for today are to continue with off-season training. It can get pretty boring when soccer isn't on, but what I love most about off-season training is that you've got a lot of time to sharpen your skills, improve on the little things and make sure that you can reach your full potential. I'm an old school trainer, I don't use machines that are high in technology straight away, I always use barbells and dumbbells. I mean, I'm not a gym junkie. I just love getting fitter, faster and stronger every single day. Nothing beats achieving your goals if you have the dedication and commitment to do so. Catch you later.

hope you enjoy your time off!

thanks for your concern. but am learning. he told me today that he does not like the way i are about people. well am sorry but i am a caring person its who i am and no one can take that way . this guy cares but wood never show it but wood do silly things to show it. but was the way he was brough up. i think am lucky.

I think you are lucky as well.... i think you are very lucky of you learned how to show you care!

Mowed the grass for what I hope is the last time I will need to for the season!

that's a nice idea... preparing for the season!

Im having some minor surgery done next Wednesday (and Im looking forward to listening to Christmas music on music choice tv channel all day while I recoop).. nothing major but it has had me a little worried, getting myself all worked up and have been throwing up , upset stomach a lot because of it! Been busy at work but hoping to be able to get back on here a few times a week again! I miss you guys and I hope you all are doing well!

i will keep my fingers crossed for you, hope you get yourself calmed down, i understand how you can get yourself all worked up, but it won't help, try to focus on the part where you will be recovering 'christmas-style! '

Hello Christmas family! It's sooo great to be caught up on the countdown! The household is pretty much back to normal again and the kiddos are almost 100%. EA now has a swollen eye, which the last time she had a viral infection, the same thing happened. At that time, the doctor had no idea why it happened, but said with some allergy medicine, with time, it would go away. It took a few days, but it did go away. This time, the same thing has happened, but she has already had it for 2 days and it hasn't improved at all. I guess I will just keep an eye on it. Otherwise, both kids are better.

I hope the eye gets better soon!! it is probably a good idea to keep an eye-on-the-eye... good to hear every one is almost 100%

Very nervous about the interview and road test tomorrow, not at all sure I am doing the right thing even going, knowing how much I disliked being on the road last time I tried trucking. But not working much is a pain to, especially when trying to pay bills!

Hope the interview&test go well, i'll keep my fingers crossed for you! i am sure you'll be a star!

Just getting in from the gym...I have decided on top of everything else going on in my life now that I also want a new car. So I have a baby due on Jan 3rd.. the holidays coming up which I have waited for all year, and now I need a new car. I love test driving cars,but I am terrible at negotiation on a price. I don't want to be a sucker but I also don't want to be a pain to the salesman. I think I want a toyota camry,They are due for a complete redesign next year so I am thinking about waiting until next summer/ fall,when the 2013 camry comes out. I have test driven a 2011 camry and it drove good! Even small economy cars drive good these days.I need to wait until at least the baby comes to see what size car we need as well. have a good evening everyone!

I think it's a great idea to get a new car with the baby coming! maybe take some one down with you who is good at negotiating a price, since it's a shame to pay too much, especially with the baby coming!

Today I woke up feeling nervous for no reason... maybe it's because we are handing in the key to our old apartment on monday, it feels rather strange, even though it feels like we have already said goodbye to our old town...
Anyway, should start studying

Good morning, friends!

 

[Undrtakr]

Well well well. It's Pinesday again! Carl was singing Jingle Bells as I walked in and he had a Halloween costume on. He is dressed up as Santa. Go figure. HAH. And it looks like they are playing "Its the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown" today at the Pines too! "I got a rock". hah. Friday a friend comes to visit! I haven't seen him for a good 6 years. Going to be fun. Just at work right now drinking an extra large coffee. Boy I need it. William keeps getting into hitting fits. Sigh. To be expected! Boots (my cat) keeps running around the house in the evenings. She is 13 years old and still plays like a kitten. She also goes nuts when she sees the lights from a car on the wall. She jumps up and smacks the wall. Sheesh! But she loves me. So that's all that matters. Cant wait to carve the pumpkin this sunday. I will have to figure out a good face. There is a pumpkin carving app for the ipod too. That will help me decide. November 1st is decorating day at my desk at work. People expect me to do it too lol. Well back to work I go. Hope to see you all drop in at the pines. Have a great day!
