Buddies

So my daughter loves the Air Bud movies - specifically the Air Buddies. She loves the puppies. She talks about all 5 puppies constanty. I think I've seen Space Buddies, Snow Buddies and Air Buddies about 100 times in the past couple weeks. And guess what she wants now... yep 5 Golden Retriever puppies. Guess I should be thankful she hasn't seen 101 Dalmatians!

Kitty

Well, the last kitty is sick. Problem with getting old is that a lot more can go wrong with them. Looks like I get to take kitty in due to an upper respiratory infection. When he sneezes it's pretty gross and blood is permeating through as well. Not looking forward to another visit to the vet considering how the last one turned out.

Random Thoughts

So, I've had a ton of stuff rambling through my head, but no time to blog about them...
First off, I'm thrilled for my nephew who had his 4th win... with that is supposed to come with a signing of a promoter. While there is no way I could watch him box, I am glad to hear via constant communication that he won. Yeah Junior... way to go!!!
Life is still in flux, but is finally heading in a direction. It takes a while to get the ducks to get in line... (good lord I can't believe I used that analogy...lol). Husband is meeting again with the enrollment person on Monday and it looks like he'll be starting on October 4th. I was able to register for college, but ended up waitlisted for all my classes, so I have to wait until spring to actually get classes going. It's complicated..., but at least I'm registered and can be one of the first to pick my classes this coming semester. Waited until the Friday before school started to enroll because I was waiting to see what my husband was going to do, so of course, all the classes were full. But I am jazzed because I at least have the ball rolling... FAFSA done... enrolled, etc. It's just a matter of being able to get classes picked early enough. And I was excited to get that far, so I'm ready to go. Hubby is jazzed about his school as well so all is good.
Hubby is out painting today and so I've been here alone with my daughter all day. He took my son for some father and son bonding time. My daughter is so much more mellow when her brother is gone. He was so used to undivided attention and my daughter has never had any that they are always in a competition with each other. Spending time with my daughter alone is an amazing experience. She is so much more mellow.
Speaking of daughter... she went to preschool for one day last month. She spent the night at my niece's house. Niece has a daughter who just started kindergarten, but it's combined with a preschool as well. So, Sarah went off with her for the day to preschool. SHE LOVED IT!!! So now I'm looking into preschool for her. No issues at all and she went all day.
Lastly, I'm very nostalgic today. I have very little family and somehow we became estranged. That bothers me tremendously. I seem to have lost my best friend and I'm kind of floundering... it bothers me daily, but I am at the point that it's really consuming me.... I don't know what to do to fix things... or if they can be fixed or what. Years and years of a relationship down the drain... Well, no matter what... I will always love my sister... because that's what she is to me still.
