MUSIC
My husband made fun of me this weekend. I listen to mostly gospel music and I am not a big fan of country but I do like some country songs and singers. I absolutely love the old gospel music that I grew up with like Old Rugged Cross, Are you washed in the blood and others. Well my mom got me a Alan Jackson cd of old time gospel music. The music you don't here today but it is what I grew up with when I went to church as a child. I love this cd. So he made fun of me for it. He does not like country music at all.

This week is my montly visit week. I have never had bad periods and sometimes they only last a day. Well its Thursday and I have not started. I think my husband is panicing. This morning he asked if I thought I was pregnant. I don't think I am. We just had a conversation yesterday about how my periods are light, I don't really cramp and I might not have one some months. But he still asked me this morning if I thought I was. I have never been pregnant before so I don't really know what it feels like but I don't feel like I am. I would be suprised if I was.

I need some help with my blog. It is a old template and I want to change it. I am template and blogger challenged though. It tells me if I change it I may lose some of my links and the tag board and such. I am afraid if I change it I will lose it and not remember how to set it all back up. I don't think anyone can leave comments as it is now. What to do????

I really am going crazy. My poor little Sixer is scooting. He started it Sat. while we were in AR visiting my family. So Sat morning my mom and I take him to a vet down there. They expressed his anal glands and he was good to go all day. Then Sunday he started scooting again. Monday morning while we were getting ready for work he was scooting and whining. I dropped him off at the vet before work. The lady vet called and said she expressed him but nothing came out and that we need to try and treat him for tape worms. I spent $48 on that visit. We got home Monday night and he is scooting again. So Tuesday morning I call the same vet office but ask to talk to the male Vet. and he says I see she treated him for tape worms, he doesn't have tape worms. So I just payed for the treatment and he doesn't even have them?????? He is just irritated on his bottom put some hydrocortisone on it. That is what the male vet says. So at lunch I pick up Sixer and take him to a different vet clinic. They expressed him and said the vet got something out of it and one gland was swollen. I asked specifically should he scoot any more. They say no. So of course when we get home he scoots and I think some stuff came out because there was a horrible odor. But he is still scooting. I feel so helpless. The people I depend on to help me fix him have been no help at all but they sure took my money. I don't know what to do. I have already spent $80 this week on vet visits because of this. I can't afford $80 a week. I don't know what to do at this point. Any suggestions?

I LOVE TO PLAY JOKES ON PEOPLE.........

I have always loved to play jokes on people. I was not the class clown by far but I think in high school and college people thought I was crazy funny. Over the last few years I feel like I have toned down a lot. Sometimes I am afraid it will get on peoples nerves. So sometimes I think people think I am boring. So I have decided to be me. This morning my co-worker emails me and tells me to call Bill because he wants to pay the company with a credit card, which is one of the things I do. So I am getting all prepared to take his credit card #, exp date, etc... So I call the # and it is a sex-aholics anonymous recording. I personally thought it was hilarous so I of course had to do this to some people too. 1st my husband, I email him and tell him someone left a message on my cell phone and wanted him to call them, I gave him the #. He calls and says you have to call this #. He didn't get that I played a joke on him. :-( I then email one of his best friends and tell him Dos (my husband) is trying to get a hold of him and to call him at the #. He emails me back and says "I hate u". Then I emailed one of my good friends and told her to call me at work but since she doesn't know my work number I could give her the #. After she called it she emailed me back and said I was stupid. So I don't know maybe they are joke maybe they aren't. But it was funny anyway.

Not much is going on today. My husband and I got up at 4:30 and went to the gym. It really does feel good to work out in the mornings but it is so hard to get up that early. I got in a good sweat. I don't usually sweat so anytime I do I am proud. How lame is that? I am not a workout- aholic and if you seen me you could tell but I am getting older and I can't eat whatever I want to. That sucks because I love fried food and junk food. I grew up eating brownies and drinking Pepsi for breakfast if that tells you anything. So over the years I have learned to eat healthier. I am not dieting but trying to eat better.

Congrats to all you moms to be. I haven't traveled down that road yet so I can't offer you any advice. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Sorry its been a week since I posted. I still can't get my camera to download pictures. It says its not responding. We have a digital camera that also records. I have some video on it that I thought maybe I should put that on a DVD then delete it and maybe it will work BUT now it won't show on my TV to record it to DVD. Ugh! I don't know what to do. I may need to take it back. So I promise as soon as I get a picture I will post it of my little SIXER. He is a doll. His potty training is going ok. He likes to bite and he does bite hard. I am trying to stop him from biting everything except his toys. He is really hyper when we get home and he plays all night until its time to go to bed. We started putting him on the couch which before we got him and when we were just discussing getting a dog my husband said he will not get on the furniture. And of course my husband was the first to put him on the couch and now he wants up there if we are sitting down. Not good. But he is so cute and I can't resist picking him up and letting him sit up there with me. As soon as I can get a picture I will post it.

I am really needing some pug owners advice. I am having difficulties with training Sixer. He goes to the bathroom a lot. He goes during the night, during the day and when I get home from work. I can't get him to go on the potty pads except he will pee on them. Is it possible to try and train him to go outside AND on the pads? is that too much for him? Will it confuse him? He doesn't sleep throught the night he gets me up 4-5 times a night. Is that normal for a puppy? He pees like crazy. A little drops every couple of minutes. I am tired from lack of sleep can someone please give me some advice.

Guess what? I got a pug!!!! It's a boy, his name is Sixer. I have taken lots of pictures, unfortunately my software is not responding so I can't down load them right now. He is adorable. I am having seperation anxiety and guilt. I hate leaving him and I hate that he sleeps in his crate all night and I have to leave him in it while I am at work. I can't wait until he is potty trained and he won't have to be in it all the time. He is having a case of diarreha so he is getting up all through the night and having to go potty. He had an accident in his crate the 1st two nights but hasn't since then. He has had only a couple in the house. I think his training is going ok. He is not sleeping through the night though. I don't know if there is anything I can do to help him to sleep. I haven't gotten a lot of sleep the last few nights. My husband is great with him. I knew he would be but since he didn't want a dog in the house for so long I was a little worried. But he is so supportive and loves him just as much as I do. Well as soon as I can figure out whats going on with my computer and camera I will post pictures.

Oh my Oh my Oh my!!! I think I am getting my pug this weekend. We have to go to AR to get him so I hope the lady does hold him for me. I have to admit I am a little nervous. I am afraid I will leave him alone too much. We get up at 4am and leave at 4:45 to go to the gym. and I will come back @11:15 at lunch and then back home after work @ 4:45. He will be home all day by himself in a crate (for training purposes). I have wanted and waited for this day for so long. I love my husband for us working out an agreement. For the longest he did not want an inside dog.

Please keep us in your prayers this has been a rough week for us spiritually. We are just trying to keep pressing on.

We are back from Atlanta. Why is it that vacations go by so fast??? It was fun. We didn't do a lot since Dos had basketball all day on Saturday and Sunday. We ate at the Cheese Cake Factory saturday night. It was yummy but expensive. Sunday night we ate at a soulfood resturant. It was really good. It was a buffet and they had dressing on it. OMG it was soo good. Just like my grandma makes. Our friends dad cooked us breakfast and made cheese grits. I stepped out of my comfort zone and tryed it, anyone who knows me knows I don't try need food. But it was good with sugar in it. So I guess the most I did on this trip was eat.

If anyone knows of a legitimate job working from home please let me know. I just want to make some extra money. I don't have to make a lot. Just some spending money. Everything I see is like a scam.
