just another spring

So as it goes here we are again. WEEDS Yuck! I have pulled 2 full garbage cans of weeds, and still have more to go. Last week Brad and our neighbor cut down the last tree on the south side of our house. We have a cluttered garage and are ready for some serious cleaning. I don't know how it happens. Every spring I think we do 4 trips to the dumps. Crazy!
Zack is so close to being done with school his last day is June 5th. We will have him signed up for summer soccer and maybe two days at the rec center for over all sports exposure. Maybe he would like to rock climb....just a thought. He is getting pretty burned out. It was such a fight to get him to read or do any home work. My Gerri's kids go to school in Wyoming and they never get home work. I agree that they need to have a separation of school and home. I think parents should teach there children but I sure don't take my work home with me. So it should be the same for school. Maybe I am a cop out or contradictory. But I can see why he is totally DONE.
We have decided to turn off our Internet and cable and home phone. It has been about 3 weeks now and you would be shocked at the difference. We are spending more quality time together. More is getting done around the house. I am less tired, and I think we as a whole are in better moods and getting out there more. I am excited to see how long this will last. Part of the reason was to encourage us to get off our butts. But the bill was just getting ridiculous. Why are we paying so much for Entertainment?!? But we have had a few surprises as well. Our beloved dog Sahara had a Uterine infection and had to have exploratory surgery that almost cost a house payment. Brad says if it was any of the other pets he would have used one of his own bullets and saved the money. But in this case it was something that once fixed she would recover 100%. And she is our first pup how can we dispose of her so easily. He thinks he could do that but I know that given the same medical circumstance he would have done the same for any of the others. Of at least I would have made him. he he
So no Cable, lots of weeds, half a tree to get rid of, Zack out of school, sick dog, Stupid birds trying to eat my plants. That is what is going on in our live. You should not expect to much writing as I said no Internet and I can't pull this at work every day;)

Back to work

As many of you know I miscarried the baby and am no longer expecting. It happened on April 20th. I was on my 11th week. So I have been at home the last two weeks healing. Today was my first day back to work and I am glad to have some normality in my life. I feel great and am in a healthy state of mind. I had a therapy session on Thursday that was amazing!!(thanks Gerri) She covered so many things I don't even know where to start. I will be seeing her again soon.

We are worried about our old girl Sahara, She will not eat and has lost weight,musle and energy. I thought she might have worms so I gave her meds for that but she is also has a hot nose so I think she might have an infection or virus. I will have to take her to the vet in the am.

We are getting ready to plant our garden we have all the plants but we have to get all the weeds out first. It was aweful being off all that time and not being able to work in the yard. The rain has not helped either! This is a short post but to the point more to come next time.
