Hey Out There,
How is everyone? OK it has been 4 months since I joined FaceBook. I am not sure that I like it. It is ok but just way too many people wanting help with games and I am not into that. So I will keep FaceBook but I will keep this as well. Not a heck of a lot has been going on. We were in a car accident on 4/15. I wound up in the emergency room because of the pain on Sunday night. But this old body just cannot takes the bumps like it used to. I was off for 3 days. Had to fix the A/C which cost about 900.
The Annual Memorial Day BBQ is on. Of course not as many people but it is on. I am hoping for a great time to be had for all.
Right now I have 2 fosters which means 4 dogs and I will be caring for a friend’s dog while she is on vacation. I have 2 male fosters one is 8 and one is 2. Soot the friend’s dog is I think 6 not sure but she is a girl who will be reunited with my Willow. When I first got Willow she went to my friends house and was potty trained and taken very well care of. They have not seen each other for a while. See this is what I get for moving to the country.
I am hoping to get some help to create a campfire pit by then. I would love to sit around a campfire in my own back yard roasting marshmallows while the dogs play. I do have a burn permit so I will be burning some yard waste as well.
As you all know I am also back into AVON. Not much else is going on right now. In July My BFF and one of her sons and his family will be coming down from Illinois and I will be taking a week off. YEA. Can’t wait. I am going to try and get the web site back and going although I am thinking of changing up to a new host. I will let you know.
LOVE TO ALL

A Family Reunion
As you know I have joined Facebook. Well so far I have met up with 1 nephew, 2 nieces, a sister in law and still waiting for my brother and another nephew to accept me as a friend. Had I know that a lot of my family was on here I would have joined a long time ago. I think of them all a lot. I just had no way of contacting them. My brother would keep moving and I would not get a forwarding address. I just hope that we can all reconnect and get to know one another. I know that my mother would be happy about this as she always wanted us to know each other and be family. I am hoping to also connect with more family. Like sisters and brothers of those on Facebook. Maybe I will get Jewel and Maltese to join and Maltese will get to know his cousins and Jewel will meet more of the family. I am also hoping for pictures to put in the photo albums (hint hint) I also guess this means I need to get back to working on my Web site.
Love to all

Still not a good year
Friday night I came down with the flu. Well everyone called it the flu, I just call it a virus. I was really feeling sick. It took all my clothes, sheet, blanket, bedspread and a heating blanket to get warm. I went back to work Monday but still feeling kinda YUCKY. I seem to be getting better every day. I am kinda hoping that I am getting all the bad stuff out of the way and the rest of the year will go great.
School has started up again. My AVON lady is quiting so I am going to take over for her. Guess what AVON Calling :) Not going to do to much with it. Maybe just take over what she has but I do not think that I am going to push it. I am trying to expand OBG out here to Frederick County and I really do not want to push myself to hard. I think I am doing enough with School, OBG, Work and now Avon.
Although one thing has come out of this and that is I am more determined then ever to retire and go home. My original time (if I remember correctly) was set for Summer 2011 but I may make it around Oct - Nov of 2011. The reason for this is because of the anniversary date.
As you may already know I have not worked on the web site lately. I will let you all know when I do.
HAVE A GREAT DAY

This is NOT going to be a good year.
If the rest of the year is going to be like the first few weeks just shoot me now and get it over with. I had surgery in Dec on my hand due to a trigger finger. That went well and I am healing fine. Then the new year hit and it hit the fan.
On Jan 2 I was running my first adoption show and William calls. There is no water in the house. Second call it is the well and is going to cost between 900 and 5000 dollars to fix. Sunday the 3rd I am taken to the hospital by ambulance with some chest pain, dizziness, shaking and in general feeling bad. Ok the good news is it was NOT my heart. I have Bacterial Pneumonia. Then on Wed Iget the final contract for my home loan modification. This is a program that is supposed to help me afford my mortgage easier. Guess what it is now more then it was when I started the whole thing.
So I am sick and in a financial crisis. Any body have about 10 thousand they could loan me:-). I am really ready to just throw in the towel and rent.
So how was your new year. I do hope that every one out there is haveing a better new year then they have ever had.
Kathy this is for you---
I start classes back up next week. I am taking Database Management Systems and SQL. So please wish me luck on that one. Once again we have started working on the new POS system. I hope that is works out better then the last one. Other than the above all is well. The doctor said my hand healed really fast which means I am keeping my numbers under control. Yeah me.
Right now I am looking for a place that will allow us to come in and take showers. I can not believe that there are no places that provide that. The Y does not even allow it.
Well I am going to close for know as I have to make yet another water run.
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERY ONE.

Another Day In The Life......
Wow it’s been awhile. I am wrapping up my Physical Therapy this week. I was getting therapy on both my back and my neck. Both locations have a herniated disk. I go in for surgery on the 23rd on my left hand for trigger finger. It would not heal through meds or shots. So surgery it is.
I was unable to adopt Copper as we found out that Mickey (Jewel’s) dog has diabetes and I felt I should take the money I was going to adopt with and help them out. Copper has been adopted and so has Peanut. I know have Collin. I am having problems with Dawn as she keeps attacking the other dogs. I actually have to keep them separated. Everyone says it a dominance thing. The only reason I can think of as to why she is starting it now is because Willow is turning 1 at the end of December. One of my fosters had been diagnosed with whipworm so I had to take Dawn and Willow in to have them checked and found out that Willow has an ear infection…Poor baby but they are negative on the whips. While checking in a lady was there with her dachshund and guess what his name is….wait for it…..yes it is Relish. :-D.
Not doing so well in school this quarter. I will be lucky to come out of the class with a C. Oh well what do I really need “History of Western Culture” for anyway? I hate those types of classes as I feel they are a complete waste of my time.
Work is starting to really load up as they have started working on the new POS system. My supervisor thinks we need to get as much done as soon as possible. That would be ok if it were not the Holiday Season. So next week I have 3 training classes and I am covering for the operator and I have been asked to come off of leave to cover again. I am ready to just scream.
My niece and nephew went to live in England for a year. They are expecting their first child and he will be born there. I do hope they don’t forget to inform me……….I will try to update my web site as soon as I can.........Until later
HAVE A HAPPY AND SAFE HOLIDAY

Injuries Dogs School and more Dogs
10/13/09
Hi Everyone,
I hope this finds everyone in good spirits and good health. Everything here is good. William went back to work yesterday from his fall. No lasting damage except maybe his pride. I am in physical therapy for my herniated disk in my neck. With the meds I am on the pain is now subsiding.
I think that I have decided to adopt Copper. He is so sweet and all three dogs get along and play very well. I am going to rename him Xander. All my dogs’ names are now from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, although I don’t have a Buffy. Hey dog number 4!! I am currently working on putting together a page for the website on my foster dogs and their bio. If William will get together with me for an hour or so I could catch up the page on his tank.
School started up again yesterday. I am really going to hate the class I am taking. I am not into western culture and the arts and music. I am just going to get it over with. No offense professor. I got a letter the other day from the college letting me know that I am on the Honor Roll. I wonder how long that will last.

Hello Again
This is a double post as I forgot to post my stuff for the 13th. Shame on me. Physical therapy is going well. The pain in the neck is gone but it has moved to the shoulders and arms. I went off of Jenny Craig because of expense. WOW it cost me $100 just for 2 weeks of breakfast. So I am on my own.
I have a 4th dog. She is my foster called Peanut. She is a Cocker mix with King Charles Springer. She is so petite and lively. She is also an escape artist. She keeps getting out from behind the gates. This coming week end we have an adoption show at the Bark pet shop in Olney. I will be doing training as a show manager. The reason for this is that I am trying to expand OBG to Frederick County. I need as much no how and info in my head as possible
