10 Things.

September 6, 2008 at 3:04 pm (Ramblings about nothing, cats, family, work)

1. I’m not feeling the Ramadan spirit this year and it’s making me really sad. I don’t know if it’s because I’m stressed or what but it just doesn’t feel like Ramadan to me. I’m making an effort to make it to the masjid tonight. I’m going to try and make it at least two nights a week, insha’allah.

2. Me and DH have been fighting way too much lately. I think we aren’t seeing each other enough. I think he forgets he’s not single sometimes and it irritates me to no end and then we fight. And he calls me cranky but if he would just realize that he’s being an a*S I wouldn’t be a grump.

3. I hate Telemetry. End of story. I mean I HATE it. I like the hospital and I have great support and I love that I’m learning so much but seriously, I hate it. I want to be in ICU so bad now.

4. We’ve got Coldplay tickets!!! We are going with another couple in November. So excited!!!!!!! I was suppose to see Coldplay back in 2005 and had tickets but I had a pharm exam the day after so I had to give up my ticket. I was heartbroken.

5. I’m praying that Ike will not be as bad as they say. All I can say is crap. I have about 7 gallons of water, tons of cat food, lots of tuna and of course tons of junk. I’m on the B team so I don’t have to be at the hospital during the hurricane this time. I need to pack up my photos and scrapbooks and take them over to MIL.

6. My cat is getting huge. He just turned one in June and he weighs 18 pounds. I hope that some of it fur. His fur is also getting thicker and longer which means I have to brush him more often and he of course hates the brush.

7. I’m a little ticked off that I haven’t heard from my brother or sister in months. I haven’t heard from lots of people in months.

8. Just got a call. I guess we are invited to an iftar tonight. Looks, like I might not be making it to the masjid tonight. Ugh.

9. All my plants on my patio died. I finally had some peppers on my pepper plant and they all freaking died on me. Not sure what happened but everything’s dead. As soon as the storm passes I need to replant my herbs and get some new plants.

10. I’m missing my nephews and nieces a lot. I miss having the kids around. Also, I still have baby fever. Not good because we aren’t ready for a baby but I have it.

Manic Monday.

Guess what I am doing today? I’m going to be in my sweats all day. Yep. I’m being a complete bum. Know what? It feels awesome!

My kitten turned a year old. I can’t believe how big he is now. He is still crazy as ever and I love him to death. I still miss Caesar like crazy and I guess that will never change.  I leave you with a baby pic of our Spirit, or aka my June Bug.

 This Shakespeare in his cone. He is the hardest cat to get a pic of. He hates the camera:(

 

This one on the other hand loves the camera. Has soon as the camera comes out he is posing. He loves being out on the patio but don’t try to actually take him outside. He is a total homebody. Never tries to run outside ever!!!

That’s how much my little Shakes cost me today. He is walking around with a cone on his not to happy with me. I went ahead and got his teeth cleaned since he was out. I couldn’t afford the x rays, those will have to wait. A different vet did the surgery this time. Last time they only had one stitch and some gauze on it. Let’s just say that didn’t go so well. I had little spots of blood to clean up everywhere. This time he is stitched fully! Masha’Allah! I gave him some sardines as a treat. I feel bad because he HATES the vet. My peaceful, loving cat hisses and growls at the poor vet but not the female techs:) Oh, no my kitty is a ladies man!

So we finally have rain!!! It’s raining as I type this!!! Which means that I will be ultra lazy for the rest of the evening because that’s how thunderstorms make me. I will sent on my couch and finish watching American Gangster. I just finished Becoming Jane and it wasn’t bad. I don’t believe much of the story line but it is so very Jane Austen. Which I just love! My favorite book is Pride and Prejudice and I love the A&E version. I refuse to watch the new one that came out because I can’t bear to see Keira Knightley play Elizabeth. And to watch someone else beside Colin Firth play Mr. Darcy is just crazy!

So I am off to finish my movie with a nice bowl of ice cream and them maybe scrap a couple of pages!! Sounds like a good start to my weekend:)

Ramblings…

1. Shakespeare has another anal gland problem. I noticed last night made appointment and tried to keep him from licking. But I awoke to it being open this morning. Great, that’s an easy $400 spent.

2. Naples was a blast. Enjoy being with my girls!!! I can’t wait to my nieces are here for the summer. We are going to have fun!

3. Took my mom to Key West. Had a blast as usual.

4. It’s hotter than hell here. I mean H-O-T. Burning your fingers as you try to drive your car because it’s like 120 degrees inside there when you first get in and sweating as soon as you are outside hot. Craziness.

5. Spent a wonderful Sunday with MIL. Had brunch on the water with MIL and other family members then a couple of us went to Trini day. It was hot but the music was good. Boy, Trinis really love Tassa. They were playing some soca and there was a few dancing but once tassa started everyone came around. Pretty amusing to me.

6. I have found a job I really want and I’m just waiting please make dua for me!!!

7. Finally bought my wedding dress!!!! And I must say it is one gorgeous dress.

8. I’m almost done organizing my closet! Woo-hoo!! One thing of my list!

9. I got creative and actually scrapped last night! I plan on doing lots today. I also ordered my first kit ever. I hope I like.

10. MIL has offered to pay for a steel pan or tassa for the rehearsal dinner!!:) I don’t want it at the actually wedding because we are having a dj and it wouldn’t make sense. But we plan on having lots of people at the dinner because I’m inviting all my out of town guest.

Well, must run to take my poor kitty to the vet.:(

The blues on a Tuesday afternoon

April 22, 2008 at 6:48 pm (Blah, Ramblings about nothing, cats, scrapbooking)

I’ve been feeling down in the dumps lately. I was feeling better yesterday and wham my DH has to go and say something that totally hurts my feelings and just doesn’t get it. I’m currently giving him the semi-silent treatment right now. Yes, I know it’s childish but I tried talking to him but he thinks that handsome and cute are get out of free cards. Not this time. I told him until he apologizes and tries to understand where I am coming from I’m not talking to him.

I couldn’t sleep last night. I didn’t fall asleep until around 4am. So my morning/afternoon not the best. I’m going to try and tackle the computer room and hopefully I can get most of it done today. I really don’t have that much left to do.

I have some growth in one of my pots!!! I have little spurts of onions growing!!! Very excited about that!

My kitty has taking a liking to being on the patio. He wants to sit in the corner and just chill. I let them out in the mornings but getting him back in is not always fun. He was meowing at the door and trying his darnedest to get it open. I’m glad he finally gave up. Unfortunately he thinks my scrapping table is a nice place to lay now.  But I forgive him since he has become quite the bug extroidinairre and caught two flies that were around here.

I went the scrap stores this weekend and did some damage. I really hadn’t bought any scrapbooking supplies in a long time and I also bought an album. That’s another reason I want to get this room done. I want to make some pages!!

Dreading….

August 24, 2007 at 5:49 pm (cats)

My trip to the vet. Caesar wasn’t doing so well today. I’m taking him in this evening. I have an appointment for tomorrow but he is acting like he is in pain so I called to see if I could get him in tonight. I’m so afraid that it something that I don’t want to hear. I’ve been preparing myself for it all day but how do you prepare yourself for bad news? I know when to be hopeful and when to be realistic and I just know it’s time to let go.

So there will be no studying today because I can’t concentrate on anything. I have a hair appointment today that I called and cancelled but then called back when I realized that I couldn’t get in till later so I hope I’m not bawling the whole time she’s doing my hair.
