Just a quick picture update. This is how much Dale grew in two weeks. 16 more days until we pick him up. Now I would just like to close on our house it's been almost two months and we are still trying to close. Buying a house is so aggravating! Dale needs a place to live people! hurry up! Sorry just talking to the "people" that need to hurry up... anyways isn't he the cutest! looks like a handful to me. haha we can't wait!

Jessica's boy!

yes!! Finally I have my little Dachshund puppy!! He is only 3 1/2 weeks old today so he is still with his mommy but I am SO excited and can not wait to see him. (Nov. 9th) We went to see the puppies yesterday and we just knew he was the one. (he was chewing on his brothers ear!) We are thinking about naming him Dale :) Oh gosh I am SO excited about my baby!! He also has one blue eye and one brown eye (the flash made his blue eye look funny) These are pictures from the breeder at Belfast kennels. She was a very sweet lady. Dale's bum is snuggled up to mom's chin in the picture with all his brothers and sisters. I will be updating his growth as she sends more pictures. :)

Not many people can say they became friends with a 98 year old tortoise.

But I can. While at Gatorland I made friends with a 98 year old tortoise. He was HUGE! I gave him good scratches on the neck and rubbed his head. He was pretty amazing and soooo old his eyes said it all. Come and visit me and you too can become friends with a 98 year old tortoise!

Life could be better and could be worse....

4 days ago I was stung by a wasp while trying to water my plants on the patio. little did I know he had built a nest in my watering can while I was on vacation. Bummer! even bigger bummer was that I had a nasty reaction to it and my arm swelled up and was very uncomfortable. Off to the doctor I went where I was charged a $50 dollar c0-pay, receved a shot of antibiotics in my butt! and was sent home with a bottle of antibiotics to take 3 times a day. So as I said, life could be better but could be a lot worse. All I have to say is GOD DAMN IT WASP, HOPE YOU DIE!!
