People Suck

I've pretty much decided that people suck. See, two years ago we moved to our current apartment and were not able to take our precious cats with us. Now, I know most of you don't really care but this is something that is very near and dear to my heart.
I loved those cats with all of my heart and was so depressed when we couldn't bring them along. Poor Kayl ran around the house looking for them for three days.
I took them to the shelter praying that they would be adopted because they were really good cats.
Two years later I go to the shelter just to look around and I get the nerve up to request the adoption information on my cats to see if they were adopted. My worst fears were realized, all three of them were put to sleep because no one wants older cats. Everyone wants kittens.
I feel so terrible that we couldn't find them homes on our own. I loved those cats and now I miss them so much and I feel so bad. People Suck!
R.I.P. Kater, Haru, and Lily, I'm so sorry.

Proof that my son is my husbands child not mine!

The other day I was awakened by Kayl screaming in his room. I turned and looked at my phone. It was 6:30 am. I rolled out of bed and walked into his room.
Kayl was sitting on his bed surrounded by black throw-up. I don't do throw-up well so I turned around a told Todd to get out of bed.
I went in and started the bath water and Todd got Kayl naked for me and I put him in the bath.
I was sitting on the floor in the bathroom when I heard Todd start laughing hysterically. He came into the bathroom with Kayl's bedding and put it in the washer. I asked him what was so funny.
When he had gone to take the sheets off of Kayl's bed he discovered a stash of Oreos under Kayl's pillow.
Evidently, Kayl decided to have a late night snack and make himself sick. I didn't even know he knew how to hide food from me. I have to keep my eye on him.

We went to Macey's At 9 pm tonight and I forgot I had my camera with me till we started to drive home. I swear the people behind were wondering what all the flashing was from our car. I got some good pictures of Kayl's haircut and his smile!!

I've had three really good days in a row, which is a miracle. So I've been milking everything that I can from them. I tend to cook when I feel good so I started experimenting and this is what happened!

Update

Today I went back to the doctor to get an in-depth reading of my blood tests. Turns out that my Vitamin D has dropped lower. My glucose and Insulin are going down so thats about the one positive thing. They are Testing me for Lupus, which would suck if I have it but it is something that I know I could live with.

I Suck!!

I am such a terrible blogger. Anyway, to catch ya'll up in the goings on at our house....

I've been doing a little better since the surgery and the doctors still don't know anything. They did rule out cancer which is a good thing. My OB is really concerned with my getting sick for a week after Todd and I have intercourse. If anyone knows what cause you to throw up for four days and to not be able to walk for two days afterwards let me know. My doctor and I are stumped.

Kayl has been doing great! He can now say HI, WOW, MOM, and DAD. we read to him daily and he understands what we say. He got a cute haircut the other day so now Todd and Kayl are twinners.

I was rewarded two weeks ago for listening to Showtunes Saturday night. I won four tickets to Seven Brides for Seven Brothers and the Murray ampitheatre. Let me tell you, that was an amazing show.

I had a job interview that looked very promising but she never called me back and whenever I try to call her I can't get through. It would have be nice to work for a few months. Oh, well.

Todd was supposed to get a promotion but they ended up giving him more things to do and a pay drop. A bunch of his co-workers are upset that he didn't get the full promotion. Not much we can do but wait it out.

We took our yearly trip to the zoo the other day. Kayl was having so much fun running around the zoo. He was excited to be out of his stroller. His favorite animals are the big cats. The tigers and lynx were hiding and it made Kayl sad. So we kept walking. We got to the Snow Leopard cage and it was laying right against the glass. Kayl runs up to the glass and started to pet and kiss the kitty. Kayl misses our cats so much.

I know this may sound silly to some of you but when we had our cats I was so much healthier. I noticed my health declining 2 weeks after we took them to the pound. I don't fully understand it but I have a weird connection with cats. They just make me feel so much better. So, Todd and I have started every Saturday going to PetSmart to play with the kitties that they have there. It makes me happier. Last Saturday there was a box of kittens and I was able to pick them up and play with them. I wanted to take all of them home with me. There is this one cat there that has been there for four months now. She looks so much like our old cat Haru did. She gets so excited when I come and see her. She licks me and tries to cuddle with me. I just want to hold her and take her home. Sometimes I hate being such and emotional person with animals. I always want to rescue every animal I see.

My little sister Emily came home from her mission two weeks ago. I can't even begin to tell you how much I missed her. I missed being able to call and talk to her or her coming over cause I made cookie dough and she wanted some. I love Emily.

I think that is pretty much all that has happened in the past month.
