Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.

Wow. It's been absolutely ages since I have wrote in here. Maybe because I have been busy trying to graduate. Yep. I did it. I graduated!! I have sent in all my paperwork and now I am just waiting on the state to tell me I am legal or whatever to take my boards!! THEN I start working!!! YAY!!! I have an unofficial job offer at Upstate on a transplant/trauma/surgical floor. Unofficial meaning, I have the job, but can't come in and do any paperwork until they hear back from two references. Being the holidays, they have only heard back from one out of the 6 I gave. haha. Great. Talk about me being anxious. I just want that official offer so I can relax and know I have a job. Altho, with the state taking their sweet time, idk if I will make the Jan 20th start date. Another thing I forgot to mention....it's overnights. 7pm to 730 am. Makes for fun times. haha.

Rolo has a torn Cruciate Ligament. Makes her hop around on 3 legs. She's no small dog either. 69 lbs. All of her hopping puts her at risk to tear the other ligament. Then idk what happens. I talked to the vet yesterday. We can't afford the surgery right now (1700 dollars), but he said he knows dogs that have hopped around for 4 years and were fine, and even a dog with both ligaments torn. I feel bad for her, but better knowing that we don't have to do anything drastic because we can't afford it right now. maybe after I am working and we are settled and stuff. like 10 months to a year. I thought it was going to be 3-4k, but she is under a 100 lbs so he said they can just put a rod in there to stabilize it and it will heal.

New Years Eve. wow. Almost 2011. Holy Crap.

We are working on potty training Madalyn. It's going ok. If I ask her every 15 minutes we go all day without accidents. She even got up a couple times before she had fallen asleep to go (altho she went, i think that was more her wanting to get out of bed than wanting to use the potty. haha). She will be 3 in Feb, and I just want to be done with diapers. haha.

Gracelyn has been on a stealing scissors/food rampage. I don't get it. She stole a can of pringles off the counter yesterday and ate them in her room. I asked her why, she said she was hungry. well. I KNOW i feed her, so what the heck. She always says she is starving, but it is because she is so darn picky. I made her a whole pb&j, and she only ate part of it. No wonder she was hungry. sheesh. She needs to learn to eat what is given to her. She has an unlimited supply of apples that she eats day around, but she is soo picky when it comes to meals. sigh.

well. TTFN.
