This Last Couple of weeks


Hoo boy has the last few weeks been fun NOT!!!!!

First off , about two weeks ago our youngest cat, Duchess got sick. She is only about 3 months old. She stopped eating and drinking, and had diarrhea and vomiting. We took her to the vet and left her for the doctor to look at . The doctor was not in yet. Later that day the vet called and said that she was very sick . She pretty much collapsed an hour or so after we dropped her off. Turned out she had some kind of intestinal infection. After a couple of days of IV fluids and IV antibiotics she was fine. It took about three or four days she was back to her mischievous self.

She still thinks she has to eat a lot , she had not eaten for about two days.

Duchess is fine now
The rest of the cats are are doing well , to.
The kids are doing good now, Sharon has been battling a stomach bug herself, Vet and the human doc said it was not related to Duchess being sick.
Sharon is doing a lot better now. Elizabeth has been out of school two days from a cold/allergy attack/flu, don't quite know what , but she is much better.
Jacob is fine, no problems with him .
Joe is working full time in a temporary job. He is working in the warehouse of a place not to far from here that distributes the candy and whatever that the schools use for fund raisers. He is enjoying the job. It is one of those that when you get done at the end of the day you can see how much you got done.
My job is going fine, I got Thanksgiving Day off, YIPPEE!
I still have to work Christmas Day , but I am still working on that. I do have Christmas Eve off, which is a Sunday this year.
We are going to have Thanksgiving dinner at the house this year since I am off. The girls are going to be doing a lot of the cooking. I will get the boys in on it too. Sharon may not be doing too much , she is going over to Sean's house for Thanksgiving dinner at about 1:00.Sean is Sharon's boyfriend. We will have dinner about 5:00 or so.
I have a piece of advice for anyone buying a car. DON'T. Not really ,but if you need to get a car be very careful whom you deal with . The dealers and the people that work there are not in business to do you any favors. We "bought" a car from Big Red Sports and Imports in Norman, OK on October 16,2006 and we are still messing around with the financing and stuff. First off the lean from the people Big Red got it from had not been released when we got the car. The bottom line is to keep an eye on the people at the dealership and stand your ground to get what you need. Don't let anybody bull doze over you.
Well , more will be coming later.
