Ever since her seizure on Sunday night, Kaylee has been going to work with me. I've been keeping a close eye on her to make sure that she doesn't have anymore seizures, because if she does, then we'll have to treat her for epilepsy. So far so good...we haven't had any repeats and the vet let us know on Wednesday that her lab work came back normal. I keep telling her, it's a good thing she's so cute, cuz we might have sent her back, labeled 'broken'.
Thankful
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, so I've been thinking about what I am thankful for in my life. The list could get pretty damn long, so I'll keep it short and sweet. The top five things I am thankful for are:
1) Dave - he gets me. We don't have to work hard at our relationship and I am so thankful for his stability in my life. He's strong without trying to take over or becoming overbearing. He's smart without arrogance. He's patient, way more so than me, and just an overall nice and kind person. I don't know what I'd do without him in my life.
2) My mom - she is ALWAYS there for me and I am grateful for her advice and support even when I want to push her away. She's the strongest woman I know and I am thankful that she is this way because it has made me a strong person. I am thankful that she has been such a great role model that I am not afraid of becoming a mother myself. I am thankful for her friendship and understanding and ability to laugh at herself and find humor in even the worst situations.
3) My pets - they keep me from becoming bitter and cynical about this world we live in. There's nothing more comforting than furry creatures who love you NO MATTER WHAT.
4) My home - I love how comfy and welcoming it is, despite all of the constantly circulating pet hair. And even though I complain about wanting new furniture and new floors and a new roof, I am grateful that I have what I have and hope to never take advantage of the fact that I am blessed with a beautiful home.
5) My friends - Jill: who loves me just as I am and is never afraid to tell it like it is, Loren; who is patient and generous and one-of-a-kind, My 10 cakes flickr group: I am glad I stumbled upon it during a time in my life when I was feeling friendless. Every member of 10 cakes is awesome and I am glad to know them, even if it's only through the world wide web.
A letter to Bank of America
Dear Bank of America,
Though I would never in a million years reopen an account with your less than stellar institution, please continue to send me your solicitations. I enjoy watching my dog, Prue, do to those paper attempts to woo me back the same as what you did to my bank account during the three months that I was out of my mind, switching from my wonderful credit union to your disastrous excuse for a financial institution. As a matter of fact, I enjoy watching this shred-fest so much that I would like to take this opportunity to authorize you to add my address to all of your direct mailing lists.
Sincerely,
Chelle

I spend most of my days yelling at this little black dog, "Stop chasing Leo!; Leave your brother alone!!!; Don't molest the cats!"
I also yell at this cat, "Stop tempting your sister!; Move away from her if she's bothering you!!"
Then I stumble across this scene. They must be training me for my future (furless) children.

Dave and I carved pumpkins for Halloween. Even though we have no kids. And are in our late twenties. Dave is big into Samhein, as he calls it, so to him, pumpkin carving is a necessary tradition. It was fun, but I made him scoop out the pumpkin gunk. I am lazy like that.
