Will be 2 years in Feb.

20072008I can’t believe it will be 2 years in Feb since my baby died. 

It doesn’t seem that long. It seems like only a few months ago.

His little beagle is still with me. And he is a mess.

Christie called me today before I got up, she left a message that scared me. She said when I get this message, she really, really, really needed me to call her. And that is all she said. When I called her, all it was she needed a baby sitter. Mikayla’s Dad had gone back to work and she did not have any one to keep Mikayla, by the time I called her she had found someone. I went to see her at work and told her not to leave me any more messages like that. She needs to tell me why she needs me to call her.

Update

Thought I would update everyone on what I have been doing. I have started to volunteer at our local pet adoption center. I have been there the past 2 days for a few hours. I met a nice woman and her daughter there they were volunteering to. The first day I was there, I took a black lab puppy out, he or she, I did not get to play with it long enough to know what it was, when a couple ask me was it adoptable. I told them yes. They took the puppy. That made me feel pretty good. After that I took a small dog and walked it some, I think it was mixed with terrier and Jack Russell. It had fun smelling all around. When I went there today, I took a medium size dog out. But it was pulling me, I was afraid it would get away from me, so I took it in a penned in area where it could run around. All she wanted to do was smell everywhere, I could not get her to play. I let her smell around a little bit then I took her back in and got the same one I got yesterday, the terrier mix. All he was interested in was the people that worked there, he wanted to follow one of the men taking out trash. I told him he needed to take him home. He said it was just the uniform he was interested in. I took him back in and saw another lab puppy they had gotten today. It had a white streak down it’s head, but it was almost all black like the other one. I was talking to the kitties that were there, then a sad thought hit me, all they could do was stay in there little cage, they could not run around like my cats do and play. I had to leave after that thought hit me. It’s kind of sad seeing them like that. I could have taken a kitty out, they said they have a special play room for them. But I have not ask how I could take them out, don’t know if I would just carry them or what. One kitty was laying in it’s litter box. And that made me think how my cats have laid in boxes, I had a cat one time, that loved laying  in a shoe box. I think the next time I go I will get a kitty. Most all of them want attention. I could pet one and another one would be sticking his paws out trying to get my attention. I thought that was so cute. Hope everyone is having a good week, and hope you had a great Christmas.

I stopped taking the computer class

It was boring. What he was teaching I already knew. But another thing came out of me quitting that class, the Vocational Rehabilitation is sending me to a mall where they teach customer care, I am working with a computer and Microsoft Word, learning tables. It is fun, and not boring.

I knew a little bit about word, but I did not know anything about tables. After what I learned last week, I could make a newsletter now, if I new what to write in a newsletter.

I will get a certificate when the class is over. I only go 2 days a week, from 9 to 3. And the rehab place pays for my lunch. They even provide transportation. I love this class. O and there is only 2 other people taking the class besides me. So that is a big help.

With me talking about the rehab place people might think it is something else, but what they do they help you find a job and if you need training they will train you or get you training. They are a state agency. I have not worked in so long and not been around many people, I lost my confidence some where. So they are helping me get my confidence back and put it this way they are helping to make me over. I am so grateful for that. I am in North Carolina, I am posting a link for NC so you can read about them. If you need help, I’m sure your state would have the same help.

Started my Keyboarding and computer class

Today, it was fun, but my hands got tired of typing. I have to go Monday through Friday for the next 4 weeks. He gave us some web sites we could go to at home to practice with. I tried to practice when I came home but got tired.

The computer class will help us with a cover letter and a resume. Also I have to get a flash drive before Tuesday of next week. So I can save what I did in class to bring home.

The deer came back to my back yard yesterday, there are 6 deer. Looked like 3 doe and 3 babies, the babies are about as big as the doe’s

The picture of the 2 deer

I posted last year. I think they have babies now. I have been seeing them since before summer with there babies. I get to see the babies grow up. They were in my back yard this evening. I’m not sure when it was, the lighting picture I had posted, after the lighting a Doe and her baby came out of the woods across the street in my front yard. The baby was small. It had got separated from it’s Mom and just flopped down in my yard. I think one of these deer's is that baby.
