I have been having the weirdest dreams lately. Every dream has at least 1 snake in it. I'm either pregnant with a snake or saving Kara from a snake. Now if I had to interpret my own dreams, I'd say that if I had another child, it would be hell on Kara. And dreams of tunnels that lead to shacks or snakes. And then I stop to eat a fried squid. Then I put the squid back in a fish tank so it can live. Somehow ending up in a house loaded with TnT. Eventually it explodes and I start running from it trying to make it to a house with a swimming pool so I can stay underwater as the flames pass over me.,. Strange dreams. Maybe that's what makes me so tired during the day.
Last year I went all the way to Disney World. Yep. It was AWESOME!! Sorry I was unable to take pictures. I left the camera in the humvee. Maybe I'll remember my camera this year. Well, I just got back from vacation. It was so relaxing. I gassed up the humvee and headed out to Alaska. It was only a 71 hour drive. Roughly 4157 miles. Can you believe I made it there on one tank of gas? Yeah. Neither can I! I saw a bear too. He waved me over and we had some honey together. While we were talking, I saw a much larger bear trying to steal my picnic basket. I was all like WTFBBQ! So we did. It was good. Then I came home. Oh damn. I forgot my camera. I suk. :(
Before and after. Yes, I got an InuYasha tattoo. and don't look at my razor burned knees. I shaved in a hurry today with a dull razor.
I don't even know where to start. It's been so long. So I'll start off when I was sick. Yeah, I was sick a couple of weeks ago. Sore throat, cough, fever, etc. It was horrible. I'm still getting over it. I was sick the entire time Casey was on vacation. When I wasn't feeling too ill, I went fishing a couple of times but I mostly laid around the house and napped. I finally went to the professionals for some medication. This may surprise you, but it's helped a lot.
I finally came to terms with reality and decided to find Molly a new home. She was a great dog. Lovable, active, house trained and great with kids. But that was as far as we could take it. We could only bring her outside on a leash or have to leave her on a run or in a pen because of her bad habit of running away. The last time she ran off, she nearly got hit by cars. Yes, more than one. I thought it would be better for her to have a home with a fenced yard and not just a pen. Her new owner loves her and even shares her bed with her. I do feel like I've made the right decision now.
On Saturday, April 4th, we got a new puppy that we could start out with fresh training. I think if we had gotten Molly when she was younger she would not have been so adventurous in her trips to the highway. Anyway. We got a miniature Dachshund. Her name is Daisy and she is now 9 weeks old. She's a cute little thing but has so far been a handful of worry. I took her to the vet on the Monday after we got her for a good check-up. Everything was great with her. And the next day she started pooping blood. There was another vet trip on Wednesday to get all that checked out. Negative for parvo. Negative for parasites. Negative for worms. Now, several days later she's a lot better. I don't think it had anything to do with the shot the Dr. gave her. She was still pooping blood on Friday so I went to town to buy her new food. It was worth a shot, right? I ended up switching her from Purina Puppy Chow to Iiam's Puppy Something. Today she is sooooo much better. No blood at all that I've seen. Hopefully this will be the last time I have to worry about something like this.
Well. It's late. Nitey nite. At this late hour, typos, run-on sentences and general mistakes were intentions.
I dunno how many times I tried to close this until I finally alt-f4'd. Boy, did feel all smart.
The weather has been so nice lately except for the few little storms we've had. Kara and I have been getting out as much as possible before the cold weather sets back in. Thunder in February means frost in April! We've mostly been out treasure hunting. I hunt for gold and riches while she hunts for those treasured worms. Instead of clogging up this page with rusted nails and broken pieces of wire, I've made another page just for our junk findings. It's at this page: <here>. I guess I could just stick it all on this page so it looks like I'm updating it and I may yet do that. Well, probably not. I don't want to overload this page with pictures of crap. Or do I? teehee
My last update was before Thanksgiving so I'll start there. I should just do this in a time line...
1- We ate Thanksgiving dinner at Mamaw's. Kara was out of school for a week.

She's been in school for 9 weeks now. WOW. She likes it but then she still hates it. We now get up at 6-7am even on weekends. There's no more tricking this kid into sleeping late by telling her that light outside is caused by the moon and not the sun. Damn you daylight savings time! Anyway. She goes to school to learn about letters, numbers, colors and friends. She even has 2 best friends! Gracie and Jaden. They are adorable little girls. She doesn't like boys though. I admit I am a bit relieved. Sometimes in Fridays they get to draw pictures. This Friday, she drew a picture that made me say 'what God's name is THAT?'.
I asked her and she said," That's You, Daddy and me next to our house." I asked her what that was above us. "That's the sun and a rainbow." Thank goodness. This lovely piece of art shall proudly be displayed on my fridge.
I also missed talking about Halloween.. Witch was great!! (Yes, I spelled it 'witch' on purpose so you grammar police (Rodney) can hang it up!) Because we both dressed up as witches! She had her Halloween party at school and that went well. They got to play on a giant slide after it was over. Later that night I took her trick-or-treating to family houses and also took her to the fall fest at the church. Here's a few pics of that and of the very first pumpkin I ever carved!
Halloween was also my and Casey's 12th anniversary. It's gone by so fast. It doesn't seem like we've been married that long at all. We've been together for 15 years now. Almost half my life! Here's a few pics of the flowers he got me:
I love Halloween! It's my most favorite holiday. I got married on Halloween and I prolly did other things on Halloween as well.
