Happy belated Christmas everyone!!!!!
I'm sorry I didn't check in yesterday, but things around here have been a little stressful. Kevin remained sick on Christmas Eve, but he still helped with getting things done like a trooper. Than Christmas Eve afternoon he slipped in our driveway, and fell flat on his back
He hit his head, twisted his knee, it was not good
I had to run outside to help him up, because he couldn't get up on his own. He was so sore afterwards - he thought he broke a rib(s). It was terrible!!!! Then Christmas Eve night ALWAYS stresses me out, when we have to put out the Santa gifts - I wish I wouldn't get this way. But I'm always so scared that the girls will hear us and come downstairs, and I'm not ready for Katie to know I'm Santa
But we were able to get everything in the house and set out, without anyone knowing
I didn't sleep well that night - I was up every 2 hours. When I got up the first time, I could feel a terrible headache coming on - I knew then that Christmas Day would be long (stress
always gives me a headache - I hate it!!!!). Stephanie got me up at 7am, and then I told her that she could wake up Katie at 8:30am. Poor Kevin got up at 8am, and was so sore - I felt so bad for him!!!! As the girls were opening their Santa gifts, my mom calls - I knew this would not be good
She said her dog, Daisy, took a terrible turn for the worse, and she was going to the Emergency Animal Hospital, and was going to put her down
She was crying and devostated, and I told her we would postpone Christmas - but she insisted that we didn't. Now my headache went from bad to worse, because now I'm so worried about her. Before everyone came over though, I went and laid back down into bed because I just didn't feel well. Everyone came over at about 1pm, and we tried to have a normal Christmas, but it was hard with all this saddness looming over us - afterall, we did lose a member of the family yesterday
Everyone left at about 8pm, and the girls and I got in our jammies and watched tv. So that was our Christmas!!!!
You know who had the best Christmas was Sophie
She went downstairs yesterday morning to her stocking, and just knew it was hers. She worked at that stocking so hard, that she even put a hole into it. She would put her whole head into at times, trying to get her stuff out - it was hysterical!!!! She calmly pawed at it, nudged at it, and just worked worked worked to get that stuff out - it was so funny!!!!! She such a good little puppy!!!!
It is terribly icey around here - I mean TERRIBLE!!!!!!!
At around 4am the police closed an overpass in our town, because a car flew off it, due to the icey conditions. When I took Sophie out this morning, I was nervous about slipping on the driveway because it is 100% ice
I don't even know why I'm opening the store today - no one is going to come in
If I didn't have to work, I know I wouldn't go out today
Well, it's time for me to go get ready for work.
Have a great day today, and if you are going out, please be careful!!!!!
Have you heard any new news yet? I will keep your puppy in my thoughts and prayers
Please keep us updated on how she is doing.
