Summer coming to an end!

Well today is August 25, 2010.  Mike's birthday was Monday and school starts in 5 days.  This week has been a hard one.  Mike was gone this weekend on a trip.  We noticed Demo wasn't himself and that his stomach was big. I called the emergency vet that my vet had recommended.  We were told bring Demo in right away.  When we did everything went down hill. Long story shortened, We were told by the vet that Demo had congestive Heart Failure, pneumonia, and cancer.  We should leave him at the hospital and pay 2300.00 for his care OVER NIGHT.  I made the decision to bring Demo home and to take him to our vet the next day.  Mike was coming home and we would take him as a family to be put to sleep.  We didn't want him to suffer.  We took Demo to the vet only to find out that HE DOES NOT HAVE CANCER.  Yes he has CHF but nothing else.  Talk about being mad I am seeing RED!  If Mike had been home we would have put Demo to sleep thinking that we would be doing right by him because we don't want him to be in pain.  Now I am in a fight with the hospital vet.  I am thankful he is going to be fine but am mad at what that vet did to my family.  Yes Demo will pass away someday and my kids will hurt but there was no reason to have to go through that kind of pain unnecessarily. 

On a different subject, Noah starts middle school and is nervous.  He is in 6th grade. My where did the time go?  I am excited for him but nervous as well.  This year he willl be a bus rider instead of a walker.  He is excited.  Sarah starts highschool.  Freshman here she comes.  Although she didn't make the cheer squad I am optomistic that she will find her nitch and find great friends.  She is growing intoo a great lady.

Alot has happened in the last two months. First let me start with Sarah and her DEBUT singing. She is in a class where they learn from music and they put show on. She loves singing (I have no idea where she got that just kidding). I knew she could sing but I didn't really know she could really sing. I was sitting in the audience that first night of the show all proud but when she got up to sing the last song of the night I was BLOWN AWAY! She had me speechless. I hope she makes you speechless as well. This class is really a nice class. She has alot of friends in the class. I have been given glances into the woman Sarah is becoming and it takes my breath away. Wow is all I can say! It doesn't look like the video is going to work tonight so I will have to do it tom. after I get home from work. Wish it would save! I was going to put up one of Noah as well but I guess I will have to do it tom as well. He got to sing at Church with the Adult choir. He sang Away in a Manger verses 1 ...

How can my heart hurt anymore? What do I have to learn to stop the heart ache?

How can we say goodbye to someone that means the world to you? How do you let them go? The pain and hurt that we feel is so unreal. Grandma left this earth November 17, 2019. 9 months, and 15 days after Mom left.  Two women that helped to mold me into who I am today, left me.  They are no longer here to ask questions of, or laugh with, learn of the past from. They left. The pain of losing them will never leave me.  How could it?! They taught me to be the women I am today.  Grandma was someone who always excepted me. Always showed me how to love others. Listen to others.  Care for others.  Really, just to be there for others when I am needed.  The pain I feel is indescribable.  I have never had my heart broken like this before.  Never had to face anything so hard.  You see, I was so Blessed when it came to losing people I loved.  The first person I loved, that I remember losing, was my Grandfather, George. G randad was someone ...

Happy 4th of July!

Okay so today is the 4th of July and I was looking for a cool picture of a flag to put on my blog. I really didn't see on I liked. But I found this picture of the sky I took when we went to Maryland to visit Aunt Betty a few years ago. I think the sky may have looked like this on that morning Francis Scott Key wrote the National Anthem. Today is a great day for this country. I am very proud of the service men and women that have served our country. Willingly giving up a part of their lives for us. Sometimes giving up their lives for freedom. So Thank you one and all. Sometimes saying thank you just doesn't seem enough. Sometimes it is more than enough. So if you see someone in uniform just say thanks. You might just be surprised by the reaction of the service man/woman. I remember riding by the Armory a few years ago and their was a group of protesters on front of the armory. They were screaming at the men in uniform. I was angry and I could tell Mike was as well. He wanted to ...
