So, I can write about these things now...

The Heyers had to have Kirby put down a week ago. It was pretty sad, but he was really sick too, so it's good that he doesn't have to try and exist with non-functioning kidneys. And then, Grandpa B (Jake's grandpa) passed away yesterday, BUT, he was REALLY REALLY sick, so it's good that he doesn't have to suffer anymore as well.

The memorial service is on Friday in the morning and Kristine can't make it, Jack won't be back, Brooke can't fly home in time, and Grandma Judy is in Vietnam right now. For those of you who know anything about the situation, I will give you three guesses as to who set up said service. I understand that her husband just passed away, but half of his family and grandchildren (who knew him MUCH MUCH longer than you!) can't be there, you're being ridiculous and selfish.

Grrrrrr....

It really makes me angry to think about. So I won't.

But, I have to ask off of work on Friday, which I don't think will be a problem, and hopefully, it won't be a problem for Jake. We'll probably need a drink by Friday night. And a Nims.

Just a boring week around here. Actually have been busy at work and been working to my regular time of 6pm. Even stayed until 6:15 tonight, but that was because Marge called me and I talked to her between 5 and 6. I wanted to finish what I was working on. So, at least I've had enough to keep me busy. I think that if the owner buys another office, like he was planning on doing, it will be enough to keep me busy during the day, every day. So, I hope that it happens.

The cats are as annoying as ever. We don't sleep very well early in the AM and I keep having to come out and sleep in the living room, so Jake can keep sleeping. So annoying. I'm not really sure how to keep them from bugging me in the AM. Feeding them really does nothing.

I miss people. I'm glad to be seeing everyone this weekend, even if I am not feeling incredibly social this weekend. It's tough working full time. :)

I DO hope that I get into grad school...I know that it will make me more busy, but my job is not so hard that I can't handle it. I've decided that if I don't make it in UWM, I will try UW-Whitewater. They have a program as well.


Well, I guess that's all for this week. Just a different week this week. I wish that I would have had the gumption to finish cleaning up the back room during the summer, I'll have to do it the weekend of the 22nd. Jake will be in Green Bay for a Bachelor Party that weekend, so I'll be here by my lonesome on Saturday and Sunday prolly. Maybe I'll run away. :)

Until later...

I'm sorry to hear about Jake's grandpa :( Family can be difficult to work with sometimes.

As far as the cats go, I have that problem sometimes too. Apparently 5 AM is their favorite time to run around and make noise. Are your cats young? I think they grow out of that stage eventually. Mine still do that sometimes though, and it's so frustrating! I try to not acknowledge them when they're hyper at night because I don't want them to realize I'm awake and beg for food or more attention. I used to have more problems with them, but then I started leaving my bedroom door open, so they don't scratch on my door or whatever.

Wow, I just wrote a whole bunch about cats.

Good, I'm glad that I'm not the only one with a cat that scratches at the door -- no they are not young -- one is 6 and the other is 3. They are just goofy. I do the same thing, mostly because they come in to wake me up to feed them. Jerks. :)
