What's on my mind Wednesday...

I'm so exhausted right now. That's probably due to the fact that I just got back from Cape a little while ago. Aka; the worst drive in America! Short trips tire me, but that trip positively drains me! And the sad part, it's not even a complete 2 hour drive, depending on the day, of course. It doesn't help that I worked 8 hours on my feet yesterday, that's never a good contributing factor.

Anyways, I had to drive my aunt to her doctors appointment today, which is why I went in the first place. I was just thinking to myself today that I've driven to Cape more in the last year than I have in my entire life -- I used to live 30 minutes away when I was young! I went a lot, but not half as much as I do now. How sad is that?

On the bright side I did get to go shoe shopping. I've come to the conclusion that LaVaughn makes way too much fun of me when I'm trying to find a pair of shoes. If my foot even looks remotely goofy -- which it does a lot -- she loses it and walks away, all the while laughing and making me feel like a moron. Another conclusion that I've come to is that I take far too long picking out a pair of shoes. I used to think LaVaughn took forever, she ain't got nothing on me! Her 10 minutes is like 30 to me, it's kind of ironic.

Anyways, after we each found a pair of shoes we liked, we headed over to the mall in hopes of finding a pair of shoes that store didn't have. Well that was a total waste of time, the damn shoes they held for us didn't fit me anyways! Saying I was pissed is an understatement.

We headed back to the doctors office, picked up my aunt, then had dinner at Popeye's. It was the first time I had ever actually ate inside -- kind of freaked me out.

I'm not coping with the fact that Emilie is actually gone. I keep wanting to go check on her out of nowhere, call the boy Emilie, even go so far as to prepare her food. I haven't actually done that, but I've come close. We buried her by our other girls, next to where the peach tree used to be. It was a sad thing burying her, something I'll never get used to. I've been trying to compensate by playing with the boys more -- and the new joeys, they're definitely not hurting at all.

Speaking of, I'm worrying myself to death about them. Not HALF as bad as I was the last time around, I honestly thought I was going to have to take a xanax a couple times. So far (knock wood), these boys seem to be doing fairly well.

If all goes well this weekend, LaVaughn and I are going to see Jurassic World with Doug and Kyan in Farmington Sunday. Like 4 other people wanted off that day (because it's Father's day), so I don't know if I'll get off or not. If I don't, we'll just shoot for next weekend. It just needs to happen soon, I want to see it so badly!

Another thing I want to see if Game of Thrones!! I have all the episodes downloaded, but I just don't have the time to watch them. Tyler from work watched the entire season and said it's insane. I already know a main character gets killed (I'm thinking Jon?). Hopefully tonight and the rest of the week we can get caught up.

Orange Is The New Black has been occupying most of our movie/TV watching time, but for some reason the show is starting to creep me out. We've watched 5 episodes of the first season and I loved them, like really loved them! Now it's starting to get weird, not sure why, so don't ask. That'll probably take the back burner for a while.

In glider news, the OE pouch that Cindy gave us seems to be working! The girls have crabbed maybe twice since we swapped that with their old pouch. You have no idea how happy this makes me!

I guess I had better go. It's getting late and I need coffee.

Love & Peace

I can't even...

I normally wouldn't be posting this late, especially on a day that I work (I literally just got home). I'm still kind of in shock and can't even comprehend what I'm getting ready to say, but my beautiful, sweet Emilie passed away today. I can't believe it, she did so well yesterday.

I cried on the way home, I'm crying now. It sucks. This year is just, ugh! We've lost all of our rattie girls this year, it's not fair.

And to top it off, my aunt actually got rid of Otis today. I tried and tried to find the boys a home together, but she could only take one. That sucks too. I know they were a pain, but I can't stand the fact that they're separated, it's heartbreaking.

I'm in desperate need of a shower now -- not to mention my head is killing me! I need to get off of here for the rest of the night...

RIP my sweet Emilie...

Roll with the changes...

LaVaughn had to be a punk today and get her hair cut. Since we were gone most of the day yesterday, I would have preferred to stay home, but whatevs. It honestly doesn't take long for her to get her hair cut -- it's super short.

Since our stylist is in the direction of the feed store, we decided to stop and get the ducklings some more starter. We thought they were eating the adult food well enough, but they weren't. I'm sure they'll be able to transition 100% after this bag is empty.

It's been an exciting day in mail delivery! Not only did we get all of our glorious Bath & Body Works stuff in the mail, but we got our c-links as well! The c-links were apparently delivered 2 days ago, but for some odd reason the mailman put them on a swing that's nowhere near our house. And it's behind a tree!! What's up with that? I was kind of freaking out a couple days ago when the tracking said delivered. After all, it'll 1100 c-links that I won on eBay for $11... shipped!

It sure beats the $17 I spent on a co-op for only 500 links. Majorly depressing. Apparently they're super sturdy, not like the cheap ones everyone is used to. Surprisingly enough, the ones I found online are equally as strong, so that's a plus.

Such pressing matters, let me tell you!

Miss Emilie is doing fairly well. She's eaten quite a bit today and seems so alert. I can't help but worry that it's a warning sign, hopefully she just has an appetite.

So, my aunt has been pretty persistent about getting rid of the puppies. It's something I'm on the fence about. After all, LaVaughn and I have taken care of them for the past couple months, so we're really close. Yes they're a menace, yes they chase our cats and kill our chickens/ducks, but it's still hard! I know things will be okay once they're gone and I can't think about it anymore, but the leading up to it is what's so hard.

A lady contacted me today about them -- of course, she only wants one. I do not want to split them up, at all! It breaks my heart to even think of splitting them up. She says she lives in an apartment, which is why she can only take one. She's apparently trying to talk her mother-in-law to adopt Max, but I'm not sure. They're coming tomorrow, so I'll know more then.

I'm so ready for my excruciatingly long day to be over tomorrow. I want Sunday to be here, like now! I can't wait to see everyone and have dinner, I'm so excited! It's been close to 9 months since we've all gone out -- I hate waiting so long.

I guess that's all for now, until next time...

Love & Peace

Now for some random frog photography. This little guy was perched on the car for the longest time:

Such a photogenic little frog.








I love this one. I think this is either some random baby frog, or a tree frog.



Not bragging, but this looks like something on a calendar. I LOVE my camera! Words cannot describe!!




Our c-link package:

I can't believe it was sitting on the swing for so long.

Check out all these awesome links!

Bath & Body Works package:


My aunt's belated birthday gift.

It even came with a gift bag!

My cotton candy lip gloss.


All our glorious Bath & Body Works fragrances!


Aren't they beautiful!?!?

Una loves the BBW box.


Cutest cat peeking out of a box ever!
