basildestinySo wow! I go spend a few days leveling my drood and thus having no time for LJ. Having accomplished my goal of reaching 77 and becoming a Merrymaker with my druid, I found myself with too much adrenaline for sleep. But seriously livejournal, is everyone ok? There seems to be a lot more drama than is necessary. Especially with the election a good two months behind us now.
I have NO 2009 calendars. I'm stunned. To give you an idea, I have 8 2008 calendars. THREE on the wall next to my computer, 1 in the bedroom, 1 in the kitchen, 1 in the bathroom and 2 by my husband's computer (these were gifts to him, he is not obsessive about calendars like I am). It's more of a shopping/deal finding compulsion than I MUST HAVE CALENDARS FOR EVERY EVENT IN MY LIFE! I just liking buying 1 and getting 1 free with the 50% discounts. I'm terrible like that. Only I've literally had no time for any shopping.
So Christmas was marvelous. I wish I could have spent some time with some of you! But it was great! A good time was had and since we stopped by my mom's house in Christmas Eve, we didn't have the rushing to her house after we got to Matt's folks.
New Years was going to be smallish, but I decided I wanted some celebration and went a little crazy with food. Our refrigerator was already stuffed with Christmas leftovers. We made out like bandits and got all of the leftovers from the Whites! Score!
Six dogs is now back to four again. I love puppies, especially those that belong to other people who can take them back to their houses. Unfortunately, Connor is sick again. Apparently he's been licking his paws terribly. I'm not sure if it's allergy related or if he's getting gunk on them from the backyard. Either way, his toes are looking slightly necrotic. Or a few of them are. So I've clean them with the medicated pads I was given from the vet, given up on the pads, used peroxide, then iodine and then cleaned his ears. Because of course, he also has an ear infection. I bought him some protective booties for his paws. He'll be so delighted. Or not.
The best part of about all of this is despite his paws looking horrible and probably being extremely painful, he's still playful and sweet. He's such a good boy. All of my dogs are awesome.
I started my new schedule. 12 hours on Monday and Friday and 6 hours on Saturday (plus 30 minutes for lunch on all three days). I like the three days off in the middle. I felt like I should have gone to work on Tuesday, but it was great being able to sleep in. I slept in about 3 hours though. Which is nothing compared to what I used to do.
I guess that's it really. I've just been really busy and foresee being really busy to continue into 2009.
