I can't stop feeling sick!

I've had an earache in one or both ears for the past 3 nights. Sore throat, swollen glands, general fatigue. I am so sick of feeling sick. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. Elwood is gone, he was not a good fit for us. Lisa and Dad went to Park City on Saturday and adopted Lucy, a purebed Shiz Tzu. She is 12 yrs. old and very sweet. Lisa has been keeping her overnight until I feel better. I'm working on a quilt for my niece, Molly, for her graduation. I think she will love it, I do. Very bright colors. Will be heading back to MN on Saturday for about 2 1/2 weeks. Need to get outside and finish weeding!

May Day

Wow, I haven't blogged for so long and so much has happened. Let's see... I watched Ikey last week due to his having pinkeye. Gross. The he had a bad ear infection and I slept over at their house one night. Hal came into town last Saturday. Big April birthday party at Lisa's on Sunday but Ike had to miss his first b-day due to being sick. Ruby died on Wednesday morning, she was very old, 17 or 18. It was very sad. We buried her in Lisa's backyard. We got a new dog for Dad today, Elwood. He's about 8 yrs old. Part Llasa . Scruffy but cute. Dad loved him up, took him for a walk, laid down and took a nap. When he woke up he called Lisa, "There's a little black and white dog here, do you know about him? And where's Ruby?" We had to laugh. Elwood went out to the potty and ran away from me, when I picked him up he bit me. OWWW! Then came in a did a HUGE barf on the carpet! Lisa should be sleeping over tonight! More soon....

Busy Week So Far

Well, you saw the title. Worked at the shop on Mon and Tues evenings. Took Lizzie to lunch at Artisan Grille for her birthday yesterday. Hailey slept over last night, she had a tubby in the big tub, (man was she dirty), slept for a little while with Grandma, very sweet. I had an early call from Lizzie this morning, Ike has pinkeye. So, Hailey and I went to their house early this morning. Hailey DID NOT want to go home, she kept saying "stop the car". It was darling. We had a fun and gooey day with Ike on his birthday. I went with Lizzie to Ike's 1 year appt. He was so cute and sweet. The we all went to Texas Roadhouse for Ike's birthday dinner. It was a fun day. Oh, and thanks Jason for mowing the lawn. It looks great!

Utah!

Flew in early this afternoon and drove straight to Lizzie's, I've been missing those babies. No car trouble at the airport like last time. Smooth sailing. Ike is saying uh-oh like there is no tomorrow, he is darling and his hair is getting redder and redder. Hailey June totally ignored me for the new kitten. (Not that I blame her). I did get some hugs and kisses and a ride in the car with her. Alls well here at Dad's house. Beautiful weather, flowers blooming and weeds growing. Will try to get some weeding done tomorrow. I'm sure the neighbors hate looking at them. I want to plant a clematis and Japanese maple next to the porch. I think it will look really pretty. I need to get the rocks out first though. Goodnight!

1st Birthday Party!

We had a blast at Abby's birthday party this afternoon. The birthday girl was in her glory wearing her pink tutu and sparkly t-shirt. MANY gifts were received and loved by Miss Abby Girl. Sophia Belle was also adorable in her little summer outfit. She sang "Happy Birthday" to Abby. It was darling. The dress fits Sophia well and she looked darling in it. Maybe one of the girls will post some pictures for me. I should be packing at this very moment instead of typing. Early flight tomorrow morning. I'll miss my Hal and my kids here. Back to the real world!
