Still raining

They say that trials are great learning experiences. But may I have a break for awhile.

Hope got a stomach virus last week and was throwing up.  The next day Ethan and Parker got the same thing.  After the fever left the throw ups did too but diarrhea followed.  The boys got over it quickly. Hope wasn't so lucky.  She was doing great Saturday so we went to church on Sunday.  Loren then told me he wasn't feeling well.  Monday Hope was grumpy and today she is throwing up, again.  Poor girl.

Parker came out of his room just before lunch crying that the cat had opened his bedroom door and ate his new bird ( yes the cat can actually open doors, the silly thing). I went up to his room to find the cage on the floor, bird seed everywhere and feathers on the floor.  A very content cat laying on the floor.  So I consoled Parker and cleaned up the mess.  Later that evening I heard shouts of joy coming from Parkers room.  The bird was a live.  I don't know where it had hid because we all looked for it and I cleaned things up in the room and vacuumed and didn't find it.  But yeah, it is a live. That is if it doesn't die of stress.

Yes, we now have a parakeet and a hermit crab for pets.

The dogs were giving me too much stress. Everyday, I stressed about them getting out the front door or out of the backyard somehow and what the neighbors would do if they saw them out of the yard!  I have enough to worry about without dogs and neighbors so we found new homes for the dogs.  They are being very spoiled!!

I was supposed to get Zach's MRI results today. I even called and left a message. But they didn't call back. So I'll bug them again tomorrow.
