Chapter3: Excitment

So I have to catch you up on the latest happenings in my life. It know that it has been a few days since the last blog. I have been excited and busy. Thursday of last week was a major day. I was able to move into my room at Peeler YAY!! It was a major event. We moved all the 14,000 boxes into my room. I proceeded to take the WHOLE day to get the 29,000 things that had been stuffed into these boxes out. The room is kinda set up. I have not chairs or tables. I'm sure that this week I will get to that part. My main goal was to get everything out of the boxes and into a space.

I was able to see the names of my precious little ones i have 23 of them. I'm somewhat overwhelmed with that number. I mean really I'm one person with only two eyes. This whole keep an eye out for all 23 is going to be interesting. I have started a note book for my students. I will keep all the important information on them there. That way I don't have like tons of papers sticking out of holes everywhere in my room. I have yet to decorate my room. That is a task that my amazing mother and I will be attempting to attack this week. I have a few days this week and next week to prepare for the tea party and open house. It is coming down to the wire.

That is the most recent school update. Now moving on to another subject that I love to talk about.........my puppy. He is an English Bulldog. On Saturday we went to see his allergy vet. Yes my dog has allergies. Matter of fact he has to have allergy shots twice a week. So he went to a check up. Background info for you, he has been dealing with major skin issues for the past few months. I was getting worried that there was something else wrong. So anyway, when we got to the vet he went CRAZY!! It was like the owned the joint. The doc came in and after a long conversation we decided that he needed a break. So he does not get shots for two weeks. He has to take anti fungal meds along with antibiotics for his bacterial infection on his skin. There is also a lotion that I'm having to put on his feet so that he will not lick them. Which by the way at this very moment he is going to town on (GRRRRRRR)!!!!! Anyway he is also taking benadryl and claritin.I tell ya he takes more meds than I do on any given day.

In 2 weeks as long as there is no yeast on his feet or under his eye and he has no little skin bumps then we start back the shots. The shots are what he is allergic to in a liquid form. He was on vial 3 which is a SUPPER dose of what he is allergic to. He got that twice a week (crazy i know). However, when we start back we will be doing 2 shots twice a week of vial 2. This is a diluted version of vial 3.The doc told me that back in Feb this year is was in vial 2 and doing AMAZING. She seems to think that all the issues that little man is having are due to vial 3(EVIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) So we hope that when we start up that things will stay good,. We are even hoping that he will sit still for his shots.

Hey i know you think I'm crazy, I mean really who in their right mind would sit still for a shot. I know that I wouldn't matter of fact I have been known to pull my arm away form a nurse who was told to give me a shot. However, for whatever reason Patch did AMAZING with his shots for the first 3-4 months. It was only recently that he would run fro us when it was that time. He also cries out when he gets them. Which kills me. This little guy is like my human child. You would think that i carried the little dude for 9 months and gave birth to him. Which I have to say would be really weird and gross. Anyway,he is the best thing ever. I would not trade him for the world even though he drives me nuts on occasion. I'm just trying to make him feel better. I feel so sorry for him when he starts to itch. I have to tell him no and sometimes I have to pop him. It hurts me to fuss at him for it. I know that it is not his fault that he is itching like crazy. We defiantly hope that this issue will be resolved very soon.

Now for a vent session. I have to say this because I thought it was messed up. Not that i care all that much anymore. Saturday at 1:00 I was supposed to go to a store for a cake tasting. May I mention that this was my first tasting ever. So needless to say I was really excited. Upon arrival I was not helped right away. After I would guess 10 minutes a young lady came out to me and said that the you girl who was going to do my tasting was not there...... That's right she was not there. I was there , but not her. Why you might ask..., because she was setting up for the wedding show that was going on Sunday. The young lady proceeded to tell me that the young girl tried to call me and the number did not work. You that's right my number didn't work. I can tell you know that the number that was written down was correct so that was not the problem. I also can tell you that I never got a message from her either. My message on my phone says my name. So if she called to reschedule way would you not leave a message for me to call you?????? Well I'm thinking that either a) she never called me and they tried to save her butt, or b)she dialed the wrong number and didn't bother to try again. Either way I was not called therefore, there was not cake tasting done Saturday.

I left with my mom and was needless to say i was very aggravated with the whole situations. The more I thought about it the madder I got that she said my number didn't work. So I decided I'm doing the cake tasting this Thursday at 11:00. That is when the young lady rescheduled me for. I'm not doing it because I will be buying from them. I want to do this because I want to know what the experience is like. I will not be buying from them. Let me repeat I WILL NOT BE BUYING FROM THEM!! That is not the way you treat possible costumers. I don;t care how good the cake is. i was not happy with the way things were done.

Okay I'm done with the vent. I don't think that I'm wrong in the way I feel about that situation. I think the way that I plan to go about it is good.However, your opinions are more than welcome on how you might deal with that. Oh let me say before I leave I have a Beta fish that I'm taking to my classroom. I'm excited about this because I love Beta fish. However there is one issue.... I have not name for my fish. Sad I know the fish with no name. I think that at some point it will come to me. Clifford seems to be a good name. I'm just not sure if that is the best name for him. Any suggestions would be great.

Love,
your friend who is excited about school and has a fish with no name
