A new beginning

A new blog. Maybe I'll even update this one...it's too soon to tell. But since I visit blog spot so much to read Crystal and Becky's blogs, I figured I might as well try. Plus, I can't put pictures in my other blogs.


I guess I might as well start with the picture I've been promising. Here's HayZeus:

Isn't he adorable? I have some better pictures, but they are at home and I am at work (shocker, hey?). So that'll have to work for now. Mollidog isn't all that impressed by his presence, but they are getting used to each other slowly.

Speaking of the puppy, she's doing ok. The tumor on her elbow is bigger than a golf ball but smaller than a tennis ball. It's been an open wound for a few weeks now, and is threatening to develop an infection. The lymph nodes in her neck are palpable and she's got two small masses on her paw, but she's not in pain and is still full of her trademark energy. Mollidog won't stop being Mollidog, cancer or not! She does need a haircut though.


In other news, I took my sewing machine to the repair shop today and the sewing guy pronounced it DOA. I guess that's what happens when your mother KNOWINGLY gives you a BROKEN sewing machine to complete your christmas projects with...jeeeez Mom. Thank goodness I started so early. Turns out the sewing guy might have a used one he can sell me for a good price with a warranty, so I'm hoping that works out. Tick tock tick tock.


I also called Cellular One and told them about my broken phone today. My replacement should be here Thursday.


Other than those few things I'm essentially knee deep in Christmas prep, which is wierd because I usually pretend Christmas doesn't exsist until after Turkey Day. Or maybe it was after final exams. I can't remember. Either way I'm working on getting my gifts figured out and I'm excited to start baking.


Oh, I forgot to mention - Joe and I went ring "browsing" on Saturday. But that's no big deal, right? :)
