there is a good chance that I might start blogging more. I have to get on the internet at least 3 times a week. Why, you might ask. BECAAUUSE....I had to switch 3 of my 4 classes to online classes and they require that I log on 3 times a week (more is better, they say) in order to get a good grade. I couldn't find any daycare that I could afford, so it was that or drop out...this seemed to be the better option. Now I babysit for cousin Jessica on tuesday and wednesday mornings so that she didn't have to drop out either - her schedule was not flexible like mine. I found out her schedule was more given to her than chosen by her. There was only that time to take the class, or not take it at all. I think it's a nursing program...and later she has to do clinicals in a hospital. EARLY MORNINGS! poor girl...I have to be here by 7:30, and that's with Patrick staying home late so I don't have to come sooner. THANKS to Patrick! Yay! And the benefit to me babysitting at Jessica's house? I can use her internet and her computer! which means I can blog more often...so long as i'm not working on my school work! :)

oh, by the way....a couple other things M says that I think are adorable: Oh No! , Oh my!...and best of all, Oh Man! (it's adorable!)

Clearance Puppy

This has been a really crazy weekend. Thursday J got a call from a breeder he had been speaking to 3 or 4 months ago. We were going to go look at a puppy of his (with no real intention of buying) back then, but when we called the breeder said he just sold the last female 2 hours previously. Then on thursday he called to tell J that a buyer backed out last minute and J has first chance at getting her, so Friday we went to see her. She was discounted for us (and b/c she is older now, I think) and much more affordable - and so we brought her home, and her name is Sugar. Sug (shoog) for short. She is very sweet and calm, and listens really well. She is a yellow lab, and for all of you who have read the book or watched the movie - yes, we bought the "clearance puppy"! And actually we stopped at Blockbuster to return some movies and a big Marley & Me poster was in the window and M said :"Is that a picture of Sugar?" - I hope not! Saturday was the last 50 cen...

Stranger Danger

Ok. So, we've talked to M about strangers a bit, telling her to be safe and what not. A couple of times she brings it up when we say no she can't do something and she says "because there are stangers?" or some such. We haven't talked about it recently, but apparently the message stuck: We were at Wal-Mart, had just finised checking out and J went to use the restroom and M wanted to get a drink from the water fountain -I was still a few steps behind, so M said "Mom will you come a little bit closer?" and I said yes, and she continued "because you wouldn't want a stranger to grab me." I smiled and said "No I wouldn't like that." And she said "You would say 'oh no! someone has taken my child!" At which point I couldn't help but laugh and tell her how much I loved her.

What a Day.

Last night there was a heck of a thunderstorm, booming and crackling away, which of course causes my dog to freak out. So I put her in a kennel (this one is smaller than her usual one because for one I thought she may feel safer in a more confined space, and for two I figured she couldn't tear it apart like the other one because it gave her less space to move.) and she was actually a little bit better in this kennel. well, at about 3:00 a.m. I Got up to tell her to be quiet, then at 5:30 a.m. I heard a huge crack of thunder that startled J and I awake but Prints was quiet. Suspicious, I went to check on her, and she seemed fine other than that she completely demolished her blanket and reaked of urine (she was so scared she peed.) Then in the morning at about 8:30 Justi and I went to go to the gym, but low and behold I had forgotten to roll up the windows in the view. The seats were soaked, and I mean SOAKED. So we took Justi's car and put a towel on M's car seat. Af...
