Day 3 with the babies

Today we had to take Gidget and the puppies in for a check up and to get the due claws removed from the babies. They have to have them removed because they were bred to be hunting dogs and hunting dogs run a huge risk of getting the due claws caught on something and having them get in infected or having them ripped out all together. Not a pretty picture! Andrew and I both went 'cause one momma and 8 babies is alot to handle. Surprisingly everyone is doing well even though Gidget refuses to drink any water. The vet said as long as we feed her wet food and add water to it she should be ok.

This is a pretty exciting week for me! Other than having puppies I get to see my friend Rashell on Thursday when she comes to visit me. She's a craft designer so she's going to see about making me some wedding invitations :). Fun, fun! Plus I just like to see her once in awhile since we don't get to visit very often. Saturday is going to be the 3rd time I've seen Carina in the last couple of months!!!! Woohoo!!!!!!!! I normally only see Carina like twice a year so this is a special treat. Even better, we're going to Apple Hill for a tasting event they are having up there. Oh how I do love food..... Probably how I got so fat but sometimes I think it's a fair trade.

Puppies!

My dog Gidget just had 7 puppies today. 4 girls and 3 boys. They are so cute! I feel bad for my little Gidgie though 'cause she's hungry and sleepy and those little babies are all over her and they are making cute little puppy noises. I think those noises are going to become not so cute Sunday night when I try to go to sleep and I have to wake up early! Not to mention that they are in my bedroom closet.... But for now they are horribly cute :)

Death to me!

I just had a customer with the WORST B.O. EVER!!!! I literally couldn't talk because I couldn't breathe. Luckily his ticket wasn't here yet and I got rid of him quick. Oh my god.... it's still lingering. I seriously might die.

Double Bah!

How come everytime I try to scan through blogs to read people's drama I only come across crap? It's either in another language, porn, or an add. WTF? Is there something that I don't know? How do you find the real people? Grr.... Today I found a pick up for sale, All About Al Gore, and porn, porn, porn! Oh and the 800 million blogs in another language that I'll never understand!

BAH!

I'm still sick. This is not good. Two people have told me I'm probably pregnant already. Can't a girl get sick without being preggers? Ok, so I was secretly thinking I might be too, that's why I took the test. In the meantime I'm miserable. Can't eat, sleep too much, feel hungry but dread food. This is no life. Andrew is on a side job again. I wish I knew how to put an angry face in here because I would. Not that I'm mad at Andrew, I'm angry at the lack of cuddling going on in my bed right now. Boy works too hard. But then again we do have a wedding to put on. My mom and dad said they're going to help out alot which will be nice because we are poor, poor, poor! I'm trying to wait up for him which is why I'm rambling on and on right now. Trying to stay awake. Can't drink soda, bad things happen when I put stuff in my tumtum.

In October I'm going to walk for Breast Cancer. Hey wait - It's a damned Sunday! That means the boy can't go with me! Damn his job! Anyway, y'all should come join us. It's for a good cause and all. Only draw back is that you have to get up early. On a Sunday. Booo!

Barfing and pregnancy tests

So I've been nauseated the last week for no particular reason and today I lost my lunch shortly after eating it. I decided that I might be pregnant so I went to the local Walgreens to buy a pregnancy test. Low and behold my damned brother was in there! Blah! So I told him I was there to buy medicine 'cause I was ill (which was true) and left out the part about the pregnancy test. I'm not pregnant just in case you're wondering, just dying. Poor little Andrew was quite disappointed because he wants a baby BAD but we can't afford ourselves, let alone a screaming poop machine! I told him we could get on the baby bandwagon as soon as we get back from our honeymoon..... which I'm planning for like 4 months after our wedding...... which is next spring.

I'm alive!

As if you non-exisentent readers cared!

So here's the latest:

Went to Canada, it sucked. Got engaged at Niagara Falls. That didn't suck. Now I'm getting hitched and it turns out I have a lot of planning to do. But woohoo! I'm getting married! And my ring is soooo pretty :) My hand, however, is scary.

I went to my 3rd Taste of Chico last weekend. I do love the Taste of Chico! Yummy food..... After we ate Brigette suggested swimming. She failed to mention that Carina's pool was 20 below. Yikes! I'd rather just stay inside and play scattegories. Oh! Oh! We had gelato at a new sweet shoppe in Chico! I love gelato! So much in fact that I went back and got more after the taste of chico was over. I know, I know - I'm a pig. But hey, I didn't get this chorizo arms eating salad! Carinie Beans and I decided to make a date to go to Apple Hill in a few weeks and take the boys. I'm so excited! I love Apple Hill! Plus it's a special treat to see Carinie Beans 2 times in one month. If you happen to stumble across this post before sept 14 you should stop by her page and wish her a happy birthday.

Umm... other than that life is same ol', same ol'. Gidget is preggers and she's uncomfortable. Oh and she stinks but what's new? Andrew is hoping for like 15 puppies, I'm rooting for more like 3. I'll keep you updated on the final count.

So back to Niagara Falls....

It's a must do! It was so romantic and Andrew proposed to me on Table Rock at the bottom of the falls while we were looking up at them. Then we rode the maid of the mist and ate dinner in the revolving dining room in the Skylon tower. I'd do it over again in a heartbeat! What I wouldn't do over again was stay with Andrew's dad..... At least not for more than a few days! I totally support Andrew having a relationship with his father and if he wants to go up there every year I'm ok with that. I'm just not going. He basically left me alone at home with his wife and 3 kids while he took Andrew out and about and he almost didn't let us go to Niagara Falls! I finally just booked a room and said that Andrew and I are going come hell or high water. It had it's good points and it had it's bad. For me it was a little more bad than it was good. I much prefer the company of Andrew's mom :).
