March.16/14
Afternoon,
Well, seems like I have missed a weeks worth of blogging. Everything is getting crazy at school with only 7 weeks left, and so many tests to cover. Even as March break is upon us this coming week, I'll be doing more studying than anything else.
So, how is everyone? How did your last two weeks go? Mine; not bad. More school work than anything else.
Had daylight savings last weekend. Not too shabby I guess!! I love it and hate it all in the same. I love that the days get longer, and hate that it's still dark out when I get up in the morning! But Summer is upon us, so I'll keep my complaining at bay for now!
Been car shopping for myself, but there never seems to be a car in my price range that isn't covered in rust. I mean I am going through to be an Automotive Technician, but I don't want to spend a butt load of cash on a new to me car, and then have to put more money into it to make it run smoothly. And I absolutely refuse to buy a car that I will only get a year out of. I think that is the biggest waste of money ever. With the economy the way it is, throwing away anywhere from 2500 to 5000 dollars for a year long car is an absolute waste. Adams sister suggested that to me, and I wanted to slap her for it!! But then again, this was coming from someone who does nothing but waste money on frivolous things that she doesn't need. Again, who am I to judge?? But don't come to me and tell me that "even if you can get a year out of a car........ " Blah blah blah. I don't want to hear it. She then suggested I ask one of her neighbors if they're selling a car that they don't use. If there was a for sale sign on it, sure, but I'm not about to knock on their door and be like "Oh hey! My Sister-In-Law next door there noticed you don't drive that car. Want to sell it?" I don't know, maybe it's the way I was raised, or maybe I just have more respect for people than to ask if they want to sell something I don't know is for sale or not. That to me is like going up to a house you love, knocking on the door and saying "Hey!! I love your house. How much did you want for it?" It's absurd, but anyway.
So the whole reason I'm looking for a car is b/c we finally got rid of my little blue bomber! I jump started it, and drove it to the junk yard. It was bitter sweet for me. It was the very first car I had ever bought on my own, the first car to ever be put in my name, and the first car to ever go the distance people said it wouldn't. This car was a tow-truck with four wheel drive, and a snow plow on the best of days! I would bomb around the city in the middle of a blinding snowstorm just to deliver coffee or a lunch to my dad who drives a loader! It has towed my dad's Chev Blazer home from many miles away, without even batting a lash! It has taken us to many spots in the Maritimes, several beach outings, countless camping excursions, and more. I would absolutely buy another Kia. For the little amount of work I out into it, that car outlasted most. I put two timing belts in it, a few sets of brakes, a new rotor, rebuilt alternator, and tires. Mind you the body was in decent shape, minus the rocker panels, and the rear wheel fenders, but other than that, she ran like a top. Now in recent times, I've blown the exhaust off it (Well really I just blew the gaskets!), and the starter went. If I wanted to keep it, it would have cost me more money to fix it, than to buy a new to me. So the day finally came, and it drove her to the lot. I didn't wanna turn the car off when I got there, b/c It was really a bitter sweet ending. It was sad to see it go, but happy to move on to the next. I did however, keep one of the keys, for old times sake!! :)
Anyways, as I said, March Break is upon us, and there are so many things I would like to do, but I just need to find the time. There's toonie Matinees at Cineplex, swimming at the pool, indoor skating, bowling, etc. I need to find the time to do some of these, or my kids may go bat shit crazy!! And I also need to find the time to go buy a car!!!!
Regardless what the week will hold, I'm sure it'll be great!!!

Hello March!!!
March.3/14
Well hello March!!! It's been a year since we've seen each other!!! LOL!!
I freaking love that it's March!! Not only because of my hubby, and M.I.L's birthdays, but it means that the clocks "Spring" forward and the days start to get longer!!!
How are we all feeling today?? How was everyone's week?? Mine was pretty fabulous!! Got so much accomplished, and if I keep going the way I am, I'll be a shoe in for school, come September! The last week was full of excitment, both good and bad! I started another course, which I need to finish by may.2nd, but it's absolutely possible if I keep my mind to it! I started Trades Math, which focus's on Construction, Fabrication, Welding, Electricity, and Automotive. My instructor for Automotive said that if I took the course this year, then I would be able to have a free block next year.
Also last week, a very close friend confided in me that she may be pregnant. It was both happy and sad at the same time, b/c the person that aided in the pregnancy is a now druggie, and would certainly not help in any way, shape, or form. I don't know how she feels, b/c I've never had the option of aborting, and it's not like I would have anyways. I expressed to her that what ever desicion she made, I would support her 100%. I know her family dynamic and her parents would certainly have her out on her butt if she confronted them with this issue. Once we get all paper work back this week, I hope she will make the desicion that best suits her, and not anyone else.
Abortion. There's a touchy subject, and a severly debated topic. I am neither for or against it, but I do know that when I had my kids, it was something that I would have never even considered. It was something that just never crossed my mind. I know that in some cases it is absolutely nessecary to have such a procedure done, but in others, it kind of makes me mad. For example, my husband has a friend, *I think he's the biggest pile of shit on the face of this earth!*, and he was dating two girls at the same time. The one he was seeing the longest had become pregnant. He told her straight up he didn't want it and she had to get rid of it. Now with that being said, she "says" she wasn't allowed to have another baby for health reasons, and who are we to argue. She knows her body best. What really pissed me off about the whole situation was:
#1: He told her to get rid of it, b/c he simply didn't want it. Like if you didn't want to have another child, then you should have been smart and used protection
&
#2: When the abortion was done and over with, the chick had a few days to recover, which I guess is normal. She then proceeds to tell me that she was excited to have it done and over with, and after it was done with she had the "best latte of life!" How does one go about their day knowing that they just aborted what could have been all care free like that?? Mind blown!!!!
Now I know I said I was neither for or against, and I still stand by that. However, it's the actions that others take, say, and do that make me mad. Now in my friends case, should she choose abortion, then again, I will stand by her side no matter what. I also gave her other suggestions like having the baby and puting him/her up for adoption. That is something she feels would destroy her even more, so again, that's the desicion she chose. I feel like if it's something that needs to be done b/c of health, then so be it. But don't brag about the fuckin' latte you had right after!! To me, it seems kind of heartless.
So the second girl he was seeing at the same time also became pregnant a month into them screwing around. Only this time, when he said he didn't want it, she told him to fuck off and that she was going to have it whether he liked it or not. B/c she stood up to him, he apparently fell "madly in love" with her, and they are now married. The only reason he stuck around with her, was b/c he didn't want to get fucked over with child support. I'm sure their feelings have changed, or at least I hope, but I think their relationship is the biggest sham!! But hey, that's just my opinion!
I think it takes huge balls for a woman to say, "I need to abort a pregnancy". It's not a desicion that is taken lightly. It's something that, that person has to live with for the rest of their lives.
Anyways, so back to my week!! LOL! Went to my parents on Saturday to get some wood split and in the house. It's been almost a month since I've been home with school, surgery, etc going on, I haven't really had the time. Needless to say, I had one very excited puppy who would not leave my side. Even when I went to leave, he was going to come with!!! It was awesome to go home and just relax, and feel at ease. It always feels great to be home!!
K well, I have to get school work done!! Chat at ya'll next week!!!

Spring is right around the corner!
February 24/14
Afternoon!!
It's been one hell of a week!! And I mean that in the most wicked way possible. Last week when I blogged, I had mentioned the storms we were getting. So lets elaborate on that.
Monday was a holiday for us. It's called "Islander Day"..... I know.... Super weird name, considering everywhere west of Ontario calls it Family Day. Anyways, so no school on Monday, and that was enough to mess with my head and get me out of whack!! Tuesday, Nikki and I had Dr.s appointments, so instead of driving her out to school and then go back out to get her, I took her to school with me. She was pretty content, and drew/colored/played games most of the time. Everyone complimented on how polite she was and how well she used her manners! *We must be doing something right!* Anyways, go to the Dr.s appointments and call it a day!! Wednesday and Thursday were storm days for us. A storm rolled in Tuesday night and into Wednesday morning dropping 20+ centimeters of snow (7 Inches for ya'll across the border!) and was sunny by mid afternoon. Thursday was pretty much the same thing. Another system rolled in Wednesday night, and into Thursday morning dropping another 25+ centimeters of snow (10 inches). We got close to 50 centimeters (20 inches) by the end of the two storm. I was really hoping the storms would bug off at this point, but we are in the Maritimes, and it is still winter!!!
February is a big birthday month for us. My niece Rhaya (pronounced Raya) and my daughter Emma have birthdays 3 days apart. Rhay Rhay was 3 on the 20th, and Emma was 9 in the 23rd, yesterday. We had cake, boiled dinner *om nom nom!!* and lots of presents. The big thing that Emma wanted this year was a picture of her and our beloved Daisy. I could have done it the cheap way, and had one printed off at Walmart, but it wouldn't really capture what I wanted it to. So with the help of a long time friend, and fantastic artist, we were able to give her a hand drawn portrait of just her and Daisy in head shots. It certainly captures the beauty and love that those two shared. Emma did cry, but they were tears of joy and overwhelm. It wasn't an iPod, or a game, or any other stupid electronic. It was something from the heart, to the heart. It meant the world to me that she wanted it, and it means the world to her that she has it.
Saturday was pretty big again too!! I went up to Summerside (west of where I live) to view the Holland College campus where I'll be attending in September for Automotive Technology! I love the school, and so far, love the instructor. I got to view the shop, and take in all the other classes that may have tickled my interest, but I couldn't be bothered. I know what I want to do, and I'm going to go get it! The only other thing that sort of tickled my interest was the Gas Turbine course. They had engines in there from the Cormorant search and rescue helicopters. The instructor got in to some of the detail, and it sounded like something I would try. But for now, I'm going to stick to what I know. So b/c we don't have a Heavy Duty Automotive course here on PEI, my instructor said that once I write my 4 block exams, during my three year term, I can write my red seal, and have it for light duty by the end of the third year. He then told me that once I get that Red Seal, I can apply for apprenticeship again, and after I get those 4000 hours, I can write the test for the Red Seal for Heavy Duty and skip the block exams, because I will have already done them the year before!!! I am absolutely over the moon thrilled that if I keep my eye on the prize, hypothetically, I can have 2 Red Seals by the end of year four into the start of year five!!! I was fist pumping ALL DAY LONG!!! It will be a lot of hard work, but it will absolutely be worth it in the end.
Spring is definitely right around the corner. Even after all the snow we got last week, it was so warm this weekend, that the snow melted a foot or more. It was fantastic. You can smell the mud in the air, and look at all the Robins that have come back!! I can't wait!!! That means Bike season is upon us!!!!!
Well, that was the week in a nut shell..........
Chat at ya's soon!

Storm Week?
February.18/14
Evening!!!
Wow I slacked this week! It's Tuesday and I still have yet to blog about last week. It was pretty quiet, as are most weeks lately. Wasn't too much excitement going on.
The first part of the week was laid back with school work, and pumping my self up for my surgery that was to happen on Thursday!!! Thursday morning, we head over to Moncton, New Brunswick, to the hospital, Moncton General for an endoscopy and biopsy. The doctor over there was taking biopsies of my stomach lining, a biopsy to test for Celiac Disease and a biopsy of my ilya, which is the part between your small intestine and your stomach. While they were doing the scope they also placed a pill with cameras on it, in my small intestine. They had me hooked to a wiring harness, and mini camcorder for 12 hours, or until the pill had passed into my large intestine.
When heading into surgery, I had expressed to the Doctor that I wanted to be sure that I was not going to wake up part way through, b/c I had spoken to three other people and they all woke up part way through. He assured me I wouldn't, but low and behold, part way through, I wake up gagging on the gadget they have shoved down my throat and into my belly. The Nurses were less than appealing as they were fighting with each other in front of patients!! Real mature!! Anyway, when I started to come to and knew I was gagging on the scope, the nurse and Dr. were yelling at me to CALM DOWN, CALM DOWN, JUST BREATH!!! How the hell does one do that with a contraption strapped to your mouth to hold your mouth open, and a scope shoved down your throat?? Honestly?? At that point they gave me more anesthetic, but not quite enough as I woke up AGAIN as they were pulling the scope out!!! I would ABSOLUTELY take a colonoscopy over an endoscopy ANY day of the week!!!
I finally get wheeled back into my little area to kind of come to, and I sit up feeling loopy as old hell trying to blow my nose! *I was getting over a cold!!* I was only back in the area maybe 5 minutes, and when the bitch nurse saw me sit up, she said, "Oh good you're up!! K lets get dressed and get you out, I need this bed!" Soo comforting!! didn't ask how I was doing......... If I was ok to walk..... NOTHING.... Just a get up and get out!!! I wait for the Dr to speak with me, and when I do, he tells me that I can leave the hospital, but DO NOT go near banks or an air-port! This was stressed to me several times, and I didn't quite catch why, being loopy and all. When I ask Adam why, sure enough, when I look down, the wiring harness and the imagine pack looked like a well constructed bomb!! Sweet Jesus!!!
Now, anyone who has been to Moncton as often as we are, knows there really is not a whole lot to do in the winter time, kind of like here in little ole Charlottetown! Our first stop is the Mall, because we know we can kill an easy 2-3 hours in there!! We go get Adam something to eat *I was restricted to water until the pill passed* and finally get shopping. After that, we still had the rest of the day to put in time, so we hit up various spots!! It was by far the most BORING time in Moncton I have ever spent!!!
Finally we head back to the hospital in the evening to see how far the pill had gone. I finally had the go ahead to take the harness off!!! I was OVER THE MOON!! oh and starving!! We leave the hospital and I said to Adam to take me straight to Quiznos!! This momma was getting a bloody oven sub and no one was going to stop me!!
When we're away we eat at places that we don't have on the island. Quizno's is one of our usual spots, along with Arbys, Jungle Jims, Montana's, Mike's, etc. We used to LOVE getting Pizza hut for our drive home, but we've got one of those now, and the novelty of it has worn off. So I get my foot long sub, woof it down like it's my last meal, and then go to Arbys to get some Sammiches with cheese to take home!! The girls LOVE Arbys, so it was kind of something for us all. But mainly me!! LOL!!
The weekend, was extremely slow!! We did get caught up on the laundry, and house work. The house needed it. Looked like a hurricane came flying through!!
So, to the name of the title?? Storm Week?? Well,it started on Saturday night when a storm system rolled in, and dumped snow right into Sunday leaving 25+ cm in it's wake!! It's now Tuesday. We have a storm system moving in tonight, which will dump 5-10cm of snow over night and into tomorrow. Expected to by sunny by mid afternoon tomorrow!! Perfect right?? NOPE!! Then ANOTHER system moves in tomorrow night into Thursday dumping ANOTHER 25+cm's of snow, and the forecasters are calling for yet ANOTHER fuckin' system on Friday!! Now, I love winter, and snow!! I do!! Believe me. But when we're missing so much school b/c of it, we don't get the opportunity to make up for it was days tacked on at the end of the school year. This poses a huge problem for me considering I've only got something like 50 or less days left!!! Oh my nerves!!!
Well guess I'm going to take off from here........
If I'm not back in a week..... Just wait longer......... Lord knows how long it will take to get the snow cleared!!!
Chat at you all later,
Same bat Time
Same bat channel!!

The weekend, was extremely slow!! We did get caught up on the laundry, and house work. The house needed it. Looked like a hurricane came flying through!!
So, to the name of the title?? Storm Week?? Well,it started on Saturday night when a storm system rolled in, and dumped snow right into Sunday leaving 25+ cm in it's wake!! It's now Tuesday. We have a storm system moving in tonight, which will dump 5-10cm of snow over night and into tomorrow. Expected to by sunny by mid afternoon tomorrow!! Perfect right?? NOPE!! Then ANOTHER system moves in tomorrow night into Thursday dumping ANOTHER 25+cm's of snow, and the forecasters are calling for yet ANOTHER fuckin' system on Friday!! Now, I love winter, and snow!! I do!! Believe me. But when we're missing so much school b/c of it, we don't get the opportunity to make up for it was days tacked on at the end of the school year. This poses a huge problem for me considering I've only got something like 50 or less days left!!! Oh my nerves!!!
Well guess I'm going to take off from here........
If I'm not back in a week..... Just wait longer......... Lord knows how long it will take to get the snow cleared!!!
Chat at you all later,

With family, you're richer than you think!
February 10/14
Well hello!!!
This isn't my usual Sunday evening post, but a day late isn't so bad!! What a week we had!! I have to say, it's getting much easier to be at mom and dads. Everything seems to be falling back into place as it was, minus our babe!!
Last week was pretty slack. I really slacked on my school work, which is not good, seeing as how there is only 10 weeks of school left! Time to pick up my socks and get my ass in gear! We were kind of busy last week, with having to get the house clean, and keeping the kids occupied.
At the end of the week, I took off on Friday after lunch. Went and picked up my hubby, we had Chinese food for lunch and went home to relax. Adam's been fighting this strain of virus that has hit the island, and has been for the last two weeks. This morning I woke up feeling nasty with a stuffy nose!! Not a good way to start off the week, but if I'm alive and kicking, then that's all that matters. Saturday morning, we slept in, as we usually get to do b/c it's Adam's only day off and decided to go to the farmers market. For those of you that are not really familiar with it, it's a market in which everything is island made, grown, crafted, etc. We go there for the food!!! You will not get better food around dinner time on a Saturday unless it's at the market. So we venture out as a fam-jam, and meet Adam's dad, Leonard. The kids love seeing Grampy Len, and it's probably b/c he spoils them to death!! Then again, what grandparent doesn't? So the girls got their smoothies, Nik got her mini-donuts, Emm had her pulled for "sammich", Len had his filoful *Spelling*, and Adam and I both had our usual; a large Chicken Schwarma!! OM NOM NOM!!!! After we leave, we head to his dad's house so the two of them can fix the sound system in the truck!!! I got to visit with Len's wife, Mindy. Oh how I loath someone who treats others like they are lower than scum. I try and have an open mind towards her........................... Nah, fuck that!! No I don't!! HA! There's something about her that makes you wanna just lash out irrationally!! We finally got home and finished out our lazy day.
I slept until probably 5:00pm, when Emm came home wondering if she could go for a sleep over! So Emm takes off across the road and that left Nik to be home with us. She was less than impressed, but we need to let her know that she can't have her way all the time. So nik and I laid in bed and it was almost 7:50pm. I look at Nik and I say to her "I want to go skating!" She was ecstatic, number one, b/c it was dark out and past her bed time, and number two, it was past her bed time!!! I text Adam, b/c I was far too lazy to roar down the stairs at him, and tell him we're going to a rink. He looked at me like I had six heads!!! I told him that the night time was the best time to go skating, b/c the ice is super hard, and next to no one goes. We get down to Founders Hall, where one of the outdoor rinks are, and skated until about 9 PM. We had a blast!! I was even more excited that Adam came!! He's not really a winter person, but now that he's been watching us skate, he wants to get his own and learn!!! I'm soo happy!!!
Yesterday, Sunday, the girls and I trucked out to mom and dads for a birthday supper. This month is Emma's birthday, and my Niece,Rhaya (Pronounced Ray-a). So we had the birthday supper for them together. My parents made homemade meatballs and fries, Meg *my sister* baked a fantastic chocolate cake from scratch, and I made homemade ice cream to go along with it. We were beyond full. Nothing tastes better than a home cooked meal. As mom and I call it, Comfort food!! We got there around 3:30pm, and the kids bundled up to head outside. Poppy got his snow suit on and away the kids and him went on the ski-doo. Sweetums and I could be accounted for rolling around in the snow. I just love seeing him, and I just love being home. It's the best stress relief for me! Nothing makes me more mellow than going out there!! It was an all around fantastic day.
On Thursday, Adam and I are off to Moncton General Hospital for my surgery. I'm nervous, but looking forward to it at the same time, so we can finally see where the inflammation is for my Crohns. So hopefully all will go well there!
well, I'm not getting any school work done, so I'll leave it at this!
Just remember that you don't need all the riches in the world to be happy. As long as you have family by your side,then you are the richest person ever. I thoroughly enjoy my riches!!! <3

...Here it is February...........
February.2/14
Evening.......
How was everyone's week? It's finally February and according to the groundhog, Spring is coming early!! GIGGITY GIGGITY!!! February also means that Emma turns another year older!! Only 22 days until she turns 9.... going on 29 that is!! LOL!! Anyway, things are getting better, and more settled around the house. It's been a crazy few weeks with everything that happened surrounding our fur baby, but things seem like they're trying to get back to normal.........Whatever normal is.
It was a week of just being blah! I went to school, but totally didn't want to be there! And not because I don't want to learn. Just being over tired with having to get up super early and get the house ready for he day. It gets exhausting after a while, especially when my hubby was working twenty something days without a day off. He finally got that on Friday, and he took the rest of this weekend off, so it was a very relaxing three days. He's been sleeping a lot, but I'm not complaining!
So I didn't do much in the span of last week. I went to donate blood on Friday morning, as they are apparently crying for O and A blood. Being A+, I went in, went through the whole screening process, which took an hour. Checked my glucose, my iron levels, blood pressure, etc, and when we get to the part where you answer a bunch of questions, the lady tells me that b/c I am still being tested for Crohns Disease, I am unable to give blood.................. EVER............ This kind of pissed me off, b/c I was asked the question, do you have Crohns, Cancer, etc, over the phone when I made the appointment, and they asked me before I went to see the nurse. In all the people I spoke to, not one person felt to mention that, resulting in a waste of my time!!! I think the only thing I hate, is that I absolutely dislike being told I can't do something!!! And it's one of those times where I can't prove it wrong by doing it!! Booo
Anyway, Friday afternoon, I gathered the kids up (They had a day off from school.... Professional Development Day...... AGAIN), and we went to Mom and Dads. Emma said she wanted to see where Poppy had laid Daisy to rest, and so off we go down the field. I show her where she's laying and I explain to her why she's laid the way she is and what it would have meant to her. We shared tears, to which Nikki says , "Maybe we shouldn't talk about it!" I told the girls both how very important it was to express their feelings and to not bottle it up inside. I told them it would only make them a stronger person by doing so.
Off we go back to the house, and I get geared up to blow the snow that drifted into the drive way, and then haul in the wood that we had packed on the truck a week or so prior. We can only take so much into the house now, b/c Sweetums is in the porch day and night, with the exception of going outside to do his business. After we get everything done, it was almost supper time. Sweetums came in the house and I gave him his usual treat of crackers with peanut butter. This was odd to me, b/c I'm so used to getting enough treats for two dogs. Needless to say, we keep a close eye on our boy, and of course he's spoiled rotten, as usual.
Yesterday, it was a balmy -2 degrees, and well.....for here.... that's short weather!!! I even broke out my flip flops!! We gathered the girls up, and we went for lunch as a family. Seems like we haven't done anything family related in forever!! After that,we went to Momma McEwens for a visit. We haven't seen or talked to her since the start of January. It was great to visit ad relax.
Well..................seeing as how there isn't much to talk about, I'll end it here! I have to say, y'all are super awesome for reading these!!
*Remember, it's better to have love and lost, than to not love at all*

Life goes on, but the pain remains................
January.27th/14
Guess I'm slacking. Didn't really feel like doing anything yesterday, especially blogging. It's just been another draining week. Tomorrow will mark 2 weeks since we lost our beloved Daisy Mae, and although we all have moved on in our day to day lives, the pain still lingers of her not being around.
So last week........... Pretty laid back, didn't really do much. Besides go to school, but I do that anyways, which is where I'm at now. The week started kind of somber......... Pain still lingering, especially with Emma, b/c as much as Daisy was technically my moms, she really was Emma's dog. Anyways, I had tried so hard to go to mum & dad's and we just couldn't do it, with Adam working so much. So Tuesday, I got to leave school early, I went grocery shopping, had lunch with one of my friends, and went home. I made the decision to go to moms and get the wood split. We had a Blizzard warning in effect for Wednesday, so we wanted to make sure mom and dad had enough wood to go for the next little while. I went home, put away the groceries, and grabbed all of our stuff. Off to the school I go, and pick up the girls. We head out to Nana and Pops for an evening of wood splitting. The atmosphere was just weird. It was weird that I only had one dog to let outside.......... It was weird to only have the one dog to let run around the 20 acres with the kids. It was just a very weird feeling. So I tell Sweetums to go out for a pee, but he was soo full of excitement that we were there, that he didn't want to leave our side. After getting the girls homework done, I bundle up, and head out back to get the truck and set everything up to split wood. Nik came with me, b/c she's my country bumpkin, and loves being outside. Emma on the other hand, could be accounted for inside. She's not much of an outdoors-y girl in the winter time. Especially now. Anyway, head out back, and once Sweetums realizes I'm not going back in, he runs to the field, does his business, and then plays with Nik. They played so much she actually tired him out.
My dad came home around 4, and came out back to help split wood. It was great. We talked about the week and I vented to him about how I felt towards a certain person. And although I can't prove what they did, they KNOW they did what they did, and as a result, we have a dead dog. I know I'm being vague....... In a nut shell, my aunt across the road from my parents, kept bitching to my parents that the dogs are being neglected, which they weren't, but again, that's what happens when other people stick their nose in shit they don't know. So she phones the SPCA, or Humane Society as we call it, and has them come out and tell us that the dogs are not being cared for. They can't say who called unless they charge us, so my dad said as blunt as can be (wonder where I get it from?? LOL) either charge me or get the fuck off my property. Since then, the dogs have been in the house non-stop. They're Mountain dogs!! They LIVE for the snow!!! It's what they do!!! When it snows, they run out and roll in it. They have two coats of fur, so needless to say, they die of the heat being in a house that's pumping constant wood heat! They're just not the type of dogs you keep locked up in a house. They need to be outside!!! However, she didn't view things like that. She saw it as "Those poor puppies!!" We always have the dogs outside for the day, as we're not home, and then we have them in for the night. That wasn't good enough for that nose bag, no sir! I just know in my own heart that if she had of kept her speculations to herself, we would still have her. And I know there is a lot of "if's" floating around, and what's happened has happened, but it's just one of those feelings where you know you're right!
The morning of the accident, the driver of the truck went and asked my aunt if it was her dog. So she knew about it before us. And every Sunday they go to breakfast with my parents and other family members. Doesn't that prissy bitch not even offer a condolence to mom about the whole situation!?!?!? I was floored!! All I can say is I hope the guilt eats at her! I hope she realizes what she's done and keeps her nose where it belongs from now on.
*Sigh* Fuck I hate not having her around! So back to splitting wood! Dad and I split until almost 6pm, and just before the sun went down, I went to the back field, in behind an old run down barn. The barn has been there since my dad was a boy. (Dad lives in his childhood home FYI)! Behind the barn, and just into the woods a bit is a clearing. It's on a bit of a hill and if you turn and sit in front of the pine trees you can look out over the fields. It's a fantastic spot to watch the sunset! That's where you'll find our Daisy Mae. In front of the biggest pine and in a 3X3 square is a grave that sits nestled just underneath the tree. Here is where my dad laid her to rest. He placed her in the grave in such a way that she's looking out over the field and sunset. He told me that he figured "She would want to look out into the field where you could usually find her with Emma!" I sat down in front of it, and Sweetums by my side, laying over it perfectly. I rubbed his belly and watched as he closed his eyes. You could see the pain he felt of losing his sister. I began to sob uncontrollably. Sweetums lifts his head to see me cry, and nuzzles his head in to my side. I'm there for him, just as he's there for me. It was a beautiful moment for both of us. It's funny how, as I write that, I break into tears, because the pain still lingers so deeply. And you don't realize how painful it is until you speak of it.
When I reflect back on the last week, I realize that b/c of this accident, it's given my children insight to how life really works, and that at times life really isn't fair. However, you keep your head high, and try to truck on as best you can. I am a firm believer in that, God does not give you anything you can't handle. And although it sucks, and it hurts, and you wish for things to change, destiny always takes it's place.
Like the old song goes:
Que Sera Sera
Whatever will be will be
The future's not ours to see
Que Sera Sera
What will be will be
Till next time!
