Not Much To Say
Posted by imaginebliss on May 8, 2009
It’s been a while since I’ve blogged anything on here. Well for about a month my job was going through the ringer and then for a while I didn’t have one. But it’s safe to say I am back at my job for now. Working for family has proven to be much more difficult and stressful than I originally thought it would be.
I’m finally all moved in to my town house, the cats are settled in and loving the extra space. I had a talk with my parents about career options and education. Maybe shooting for veterinary school is a long shot right now, so I’m going to get into the field as a veterinary technician. I’m going to try and enroll at MCC this fall for their veterinary technology program. It will only take a year or two and then when I’m done I’ll have work available to me because I’ll have the education to back it.
Hopefully during that time Dave will figure out what it is he wants to pursue as a career and make the transition back into school when I’m done.
I hadn’t written about this before because I wasn’t sure how long it was going to last, but… Dave and I have acquired yet another cat. It happened shortly after I moved into the town house. During a clean out (when we go to a house right after it’s been evicted and remove belongings) we came across our first encounter with an abandoned pet. People have been leaving their pets to die in their foreclosed homes and it’s been all over the news. An upstairs closet was bolted shut and we heard a little meowing coming from inside. The carpet underneath the doorway was ripped up. Dave kicked open the door and a little calico burst out.
We took her to my place and got her some food and water. I suppose she’s only a few months old. She fit right in despite having been left for dead for over a week. She warmed up and laid in my lap the rest of the evening, purring and soaking up the attention. I had worries about keeping her because Isabelle is so easily stressed out. But everything has been working out so far. Her name is Cali.
As for some rather unfortunate news, Dave’s half sister is at UCLA for an indefinite period of time, waiting for another heart. We are all hoping and praying that one will find her in time. She is very tolerant of everything she’s had to go through to keep her heart in good function.
Well that’s about it for the updates. I’ll try to blog a little more often.
