Life

It's getting a little easier each day dealing with the loss of Timmy kitty, in which I must give a shout out of praise to the Lord.

I've been in a pondering mood here lately about life in general. I think about how the summer is halfway over and in August I will be starting my very last semester of Nursing school. Then after graduating in December I will be quitting the healthcare company I've been with for 4 years and move down to Florida. I'm so stoked but scared at the same time, I guess we all fear the unknown to a certain extent. There is a song by Natalie Grant that speaks to my heart whenever I feel fearful or discouraged:





Good song....

R.I.P Big Timbo

So I'm crying like a banshee right now because as mom was driving to work she saw one of our cats *mom's cat* Timmy dead by the side of our road.

Needless to say there was much boohooing.

I know some say 'It's just a cat' but Timmy *as with the rest of our cats* are family.
It hurts just as bad as if my own brother had died.


Dad came home from work and buried him in the back yard *our woods* with the other past beloved animals of our family.

As silly as it may sound, please pray for us




The only time Timmy ever looked small
was when he had a bath



He liked to knock down the Christmas cards on the table

Timmy was a good sport and let me dress him

up for Christmas

He helped us move furniture...

Computer geek....

Liked snow...

Awesome snuggler

We'll miss you Timbo

So, Geoff and Megan's plane came in around 9:54 last night. Their flight was suppose to arrive at 6pm but some nasty storm hit Ft. Lauderdale airport right before their flight took off *praise God that they were safe!*

Anyhow, they came over to the house and ate some Chinese food while sharing their fun adventure in Key West!

Here are some pics from their honeymoon: *no dirty pics I promise!*

Grrrrrrr *nutrition suggestions needed*

So...I'm on this 'organic kick' right now and I've recently discovered how much I love Silk brand Vanilla soy milk.



I've also discovered that since I've been drinking it for the past two days I have:
-had horrible stomach pains
-broken out in random hives all over my body
-had watery eyes
-runny nose

I then checked the web for the following information:
