Experiencing Dogs

Ok...lets face it. I want a cat, but it will not happen. Im allergic to cats, and double whammy because i got two dogs. I have had cats my whole life. Since i was 5years old. how in world am i allergic all of a sudden to cats? I dont know but now i am. Dogs I am fine with. I miss having a cat walk up to me in the mornings and meowing at me. Don't get me wrong I love my dogs. There the best things. I love animals with all my heart! i take them to dogs park and so much more. But back to the cat thing. Listing my cats...

1. My first cat, Daisy, a long haired white and tabbyed, used to nibble on my ear, I was 5 years old, only lasted for a few months, I beleive.

2. My second cat, Sarah, or Mr. Sarah, a short haired tabbyed, it ended up a boy after we thought it was a girl. Ha! Had it for 4 years. I was 7years old when i got him

Number 3 and 4 cats came together. Squirel, all grey kitten, and Blackie, all black kitten, came together when My aunt caught them by the river in GA, Squirel ran away a month later or two and Blackie stayed for awhile. I was 7yrs old.

Number 5 another Cat named Squirel, a white and grey kitten, and what a strange kitten this was. It would have his body face the wall and have the head turn and beg for food when we were eating for dinner. Weird! huh? I was 9.

Then came Simba. He was the biggest baby of all. lastest 9years old. I loved him to death. My others too but this one would come up to me in the mornings and give me kisses. I was about 12.

Hope you enjoyed that, because i sure do miss them! Now i will start my adventure of my dog stories! :)

maybe?

Pediatric Hospitalist...i read on it, maybe the future, maybe not. Preschool teacher, maybe, maybe not.

New Years

We kept it low on new years this year. Usually we go to the strip and dance or see the crazys get drunk and laugh and go home. This year because of the new dog, Deija we went and got dessert at Dennys with our roomie Nick and went the church parking lot and watch the fireworks from the distance. Id have to say, strasphere had the best! City center too.

New Dog

We got a new dog named Deija. She is such a sweetie. Off of craigslist and she is german shepard mixed hound. The previous owners were awesome and great to her! We will keep in touch with them. She knows shake, sit and "puppy play bite". Mo is enjoying the idea of having another dog around and repeatly humping her. Majic can in the future!! She does get away and turn on her back instantly. This morning she was waking up and didn't do so that well. Mo was wide awake and ready. its official Dieja has moved into the living room. No longer in the cage area. Hooray!

Hiking for the first time with our dog

Steve and I decided to go hiking with Mo. Well it was me, Ive been wanting to go hiking for awhile and with our dog. I love our dog and for the 20min up the way to the canyon he whined. It was interesting to him! the ride and all. When we got there and started the hike he was a happy dog. He got to experience his first time smelling, touching and seeing snow. Well patches of snow. We didnt expect to see it but it was there on our hike. Our first dog and going hiking was fun. Steve and I would take turns holding the leash. Everytime he see another dog he get excitied and so would the other dog. But it was hiking not dog play time! At the end it was worth it he got a nap in as well as myself on the way home. As far as Steve he drove....

Xmas Cards.....

Last year I had so much fun making christmas cards, i was going to do it again this year. Wrong! i have no time. I got a dog downstairs and can't come upstairs. Well thats not the excuse but still.... Cant spend too much time working on making 50cards or so. I got family, out of town family, co- workers and church people. thats alot right there. So today i went out gave out like 7. Tommorow 10more or so to go. Me and my little dog out christmas give away card door to door! how fun is that. i realized i forgot a few church people. I have to get a few more cards made up...uh oh! Along with that i have to make 10 scrapbook pages in 3days. That part should by easy I wish it didnt get dark that fast, but o'well. I will get my excercise in for sure. I found out a sister lived right in the neighborhood block, so cool! And another sister, how fun! Now if anything happend i know where to go because this area isnt that great. i hear gangs beat people up at night and all sorts of stuff. It sounds quiet but don't let it foool you.

Thanksgiving

Steve and I went to my dad place where my mom met up. Actually it was the other way around Steve met up there where mom and I cooked muffins, pototoes and other stuff. What a funny story to tell! I baked some cookies, had the recipe out and stuck it in the oven. I was sitting on the couch, relaxing when my mom said "the flour bag was never open" which was orignanlly supposed to go 'in' the cookies. haha! another batch gone, another cookie story to tell. I, Heidi can NOT bake cookies....Never have baked a good batch. One day will. Steve laughed his head off and told all the cookie stories ever, I made. Forgot this, forgot that. Haha! So im learning. And I tried. On the day.... Steve's parents showed up had a great meal, Love the muffins! Watched Santa Clause 2. Im very thankful for the family I have and who I see, talk too, over states, and in heaven. I love them!

Were all sick....

Its almost thanksgiving, its about family, and sore throats, medicine and the tissies are around. I was going to visit my grandpa at saturday and have him meet my husband but Steve just caught my cold, and he has the flu today, and plus my grandpa has been going to the bathroom every 2 hours, and thats not good. I hope My grandpa is healthy. We were supposed to go and check the 2010 cars for the fun of it. My work gave them out for free. It sounded fun to do but health is way more important. I got my cold last tuesday and boy oh boy, talk about sneezing all night, i hated it! thankgoodness i was off on that wednesday, the next day. And then today, still hitting the tissues. ugh! My nose is very sensitive one.

My Biggest Dream

The first i have watch the show 'adoption stories' when i was i high school. i absolutely fell in love with the idea of adopting a child. i recently looked up how much it had cost to adopt a child, and wow it is expensive 10,000 dollars and more. adopting a a child with disablities is lower in cost, but who? Maybe a MR child. i will never giveup this dream. but at the same time it may never happen. my husband doesnt like the idea. So many children need a home.

Missing My Digital Camera

My dog Mo cracked my digital camera. I accidently left it low for him to get too. not on purpose He is my first dog but still I he shouldn't of got my camera. I want to take some cute pictures of him yesterday. I got to get one soon for thanksgiving and Christmas. I love my family! husbands family! I managed to use a snap camera. Which i have no idea how it turned out? hopefully good.

What going on....

Whats going on? well Mo is doing really with leash training (sorta)and so i slacked with it. I did it for 2 weeks. and stopped for a month. and I am back to it. He isn't that bad but it would be nice for him to be better at it. I keep hoping to run into anothe rhodesian ridgeback at the dog park but i know all dogs that go to the dog park over here, uh. steve and i took a trip to new orleans and it was very fun! Saw a st. louis cementery, did ghost tour, a boat jazz dinner cruise, and almost got my purse stolen. This week my hubby starts his next semester of school. And then one more and then finished! hooray! family history is going to start to get serious here soon. Days are flying pass me and needs to get worked on. I need a bible, b of m study partner and church doesn't count because i cant ask a million questions. it helps if i read with someone/ a buddy, i can get thru a book faster, and learn stuff more. (im a slow learner) daylight savings time really stinks!

We adopted a dog named Mo...

Steve and I adopted a dog named Mo...He is adorable! He is 11months old and doing so well now. We have had him for a week now and or maybe week and a half. So smart and cute! He is a male, from petsmart. He is our first dog together. i take him to doggie parks. yesterday was his third time. he had lots of fun! he ran around with other dogs and talked/chewed another dog out. he follows me everywhere but thats the nature of a rhodesian rhodeback.

Living life....

So day by day i wake up go to work, lately there been playing Cinderella, cleaning the house there, which isn't bad to think of it. Needing money and all. Only one year to go till Steve graduates from his masters programs occcupation therapy, he has about a 3.6 average, which is great! Loving family history every day. Calling people like crazy and asking questions. Enjoying the family bonding. I love being blessed with that gift of just being about to call a complete stanger in your family and saying hi im your family how are you? and hope they want to talk....haha. And if they dont thats ok. I love grandparents! All i have left down here is my grandfathers. And up there and my grandma to talk too,and them to watch me and my mistakes, uh oh?! better me good....haha. I miss both of grandmothers. There laughs and smiles and visiting them. there smells when i was around them. There sweetness! Can't wait to get on with this family history book, I barely started, definlty need more info......

What Im up too...lately....

Its hot and I hate it! Over 100 degrees wishing it was back to the 80's, at least. But o'well.
Now a days, Im working on a family history book, and to be presenting it at a family reunion here in 2 years. I found 2 books on the internet and got them at a library and boy they are so delicate and from another state. There like ,together, 800 pages full of pictures, birthdates, stories and much more. ugh! (lots of typing) If i were to buy them one is like 150 dollars and the other is 60dollars. I figured I see what i can do what them first. The family side im working on in the book is my moms mom side and here family is from kentucky, a big catholic bunch. Im excitied, i love my family!
Steve is back at school and has one year to go,hooray! Im still at work, the grocery store. Only for a year and then our little baby making process begins ( and im excitied) My dad has got his cancer removed off his back (well almost), he has to go back and get more removed, it was a mild kind. he has another too forming. Moms doing good. Shes moving back out of dads house here soon into her own place. (maybe she will get a cat, oh wait im allergic, darn) I finally got my friends cats kittens out to homes, that was fun! Steve and I was out at disneyland, again, a couple weeks ago. And some retarded bug bite me and i had an allergic reaction to it, and i hived out. I couldnt enjoy the beach and lay out the next day out huntington beach. (although we did eat out there and take pictures, better than nothing) I sleeped and took benedryl on the way back. Damn itches! of coarse i went to docter is anyone was worried......they gave me a benedryl shot and a nasty chalky pill that im too the end of taking. Poor Aunt Connie put one of her cats to sleep, 15years old, Nikki. so sad. I called her but she hasnt picked up. i need to give her a call again. I also got my hair dyed or highlights blonde streaks. I havent done anything with that in a long time since 16yrs old. so thats the update, hope you had fun reading! :)
