Living My Life

Here is what is most upsetting to me. I always make a conscious effort live my life in a manner that if I were to perrish tomorrow, I would be remembered in a good way. The last few days, and the last few people I have dealt with, really have made me feel like I am not that person.

The lady who rear ended me in the Starbucks line called me a dirty name. Probably because I was not saying very much to her and avoiding her at all costs because I was making a conscious effort to not lose my temper.

And the neighbor lady who accused me of grabbing her child? Well, that was just the worst! First of all, I would never want anyone to think I would ever harm a child! And second of all, I didn't do it anyway! And I never would.

I try so hard to make sure I treat others as I would want to be treated. I try to make sure I am nice, and kind to everyone, and I feel like I have been stepped on quite a bit in the last few days. Makes me wonder why I even bother.

Anyway, in light of recent, life goes on. Sunday night I had our WnW BBQ at my house. I had a fill in Hubby (the hubby of one of my employee's) do the grilling. He did a great job, and we had a great time. There were several employees and their pets who were not fit for driving and ended up spending the night. So, come Monday morning, it was like a whole new dog party. I had 4 dogs instead of 2. It really was fun and I had a great time.

I had Monday off and Hubby came home mid afternoon from Vegas. He said he had a great time in spite of the heat and that he learned a lot. He also won me a nice chunk of change for the bank! THANK YOU HUBBY!

I did start training Monday night for Bristol. The first night of class was just lecture, without dogs. Bristol will get to go with me on Monday. There are some regular WnW customers in the class, they have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy who is SOOOO cute!! Hubby got to meet her the other night and he thought the puppy was cute also.

Wednesday was a busy day. I was busy at work, as was Hubby. Then immediately after work we headed to our Mortgage Broker's office. We are refinancing the house. This time we are under that magic 80%, so no more PMI! And I am being added onto the house! So, essentially, I am in the process of buying my first house! I am pretty excited about that!

After that we headed down to my mom and dad's house to celebrate Mom's birthday. Suzi and Zak were down, with Phoebe to celebrate the occasion. And of course we brought our two pups. Phoebe and Bristol played and played and played. They had a great time. Meanwhile, the 5 of us, Dad, Suzi, Hubby, Zak and myself, gave Mom a new digital camera for her birthday. It's exactly what she wanted. So, we hope she enjoys that, especially when she goes to Ireland.

Tonight we had free tickets to the comedy club here in town. The vet from Emergency Vets was doing his stand up routine. It was pretty fun! The vet guy and the guy before him were soooo funny! I couldn't stop laughing! There were 6 of us that went to the show and we all enjoyed it!

Well, it's late now and I am off to bed.
