SCRIPTED CHAOS
Hello... I'm back... For anyone who might care, I've been a little preoccupied. Out new addition arrived Thursday afternoon. My Husband brought out new puppy home Thurday afternoon. He said that the Breeders were going to keep her an extra week, since she was the smallest one. I hate using the word or phrase, "Runt Of The Litter." However, I guess that she is. Although, my Husband has been fibbing for me for about two weeks now, regarding the Puppy Noel. He had been carefully plotting this secret homcoming, just so that he could suprise me. Guess what, it worked!
Our lives have not been the same since she got here. It is honestly like having a newborn. Neither of us has gotten much sleep since she arrived. It's just like a human babay. You have to get up frequently to feed, water, and let her out. I thought that, it was 1994 all over again. That's the year when my son was born. Don't get me wrong, I have been unpatiently awaiting her arrival. I could not wait until she got here. Although, she was quite a sight when my Husband walked in with her Thursday afternoon. She is so terribly tiny for just six weeks old. I took her to Vet's Office on Friday. When he weighed her, she only weighed 2.4 pounds.
Noel also had a touch of Ring Worms. This could also be a contributing factor to her size and weight. I'll bet getting bounced off of Momma, when you were trying to nurse was not fun either. The Breeders said that, they paid special attention to her as far as feeding and nursing. Never-the-less, it didn't help much in this instance. The other crazy thing going on in my world is, I'm painting our kitchen. I actually went out and bought paint and all of the necessitys last Sunday. Little did I know that, it was going to take me two weeks to finish a simple project.
The other thing that happened is, another very dear friend of the family died one week ago last Friday. Our Babysitter's Husband in Indianapolis unexpedly passed away of a massive heart attack. She was I and my Brother's Babysitter for about 10 years. Our family and theirs were so very close. My Brother somehow managed, to get time away fom his job, to go to the funeral. He was our Family's representative if you will. Another friend of my parents died that weekend as well. He owned a store in Branson Missouri, and was shot by an angry customer. My life lately seems to be, two steps forward, and three steps back. It's crazy ya'll!
