The Good News thread

Think I may have found my puppy.

Had a very nice conversation with Mike's mom tonight. Considering I've only met her and spoken with her less than a handful of times in the past two years....I consider this a very Big Thing!

DEETS! And stuff.

Going to Book of Mormon at the Kennedy Center tomorrow night! Woohoo!

That is awesome!!!! A relationship with his mom can be amazing. You hear all the horror stories about MIL (mother in law) but they aren't all bad. I didn't meet my MIL until after we were married (we eloped). We are super close. There are two people I call everyday (other than hubby lol) and that is my mom and my MIL. That doesn't mean we don't get on each others nerves now and again but i love her and she loves me and we really are good friends and family . I talk to her more than Brian does lol

After tomorrow my life goes back to my weird "normal"

But only for 12 more days and then crazy again. *sigh*

Oh, well. YAY FOR TWELVE DAYS

My 11 week old just giggled in her sleep. Cutest. Sound. Ever.

Heart melted. Mind blown.

AWWWW!! No sweeter sound on earth.

After not being able to properly focus on it for a year or so, I've made the decision to try jumping into AlliePets full-time for at least six months. See if it's a viable option for long-term.

I got the job!!!

Bye bye minimum wage, part time job!!!!!

Congrats!

Despite everything going on, the boyfriend has been pretty amazing the last few days. He has been trying so hard to let me have my space and make peace with everything. He isn't pushing for me to regain my friendship with his ex, he has been focusing his time to moving the last of our stuff and talking it easy himself, leaving the rest to bring back a strong foundation of friendship for us and our relationship.

And the being sick thing goes above and beyond what I would expect. Staying on top of me about vitamins, eating, taking meds and keeping a hellacious fever in check. Bringing me food, soup, coffee, tea.

Sigh.

Maaaay be getting another job with awesome perks and great pay.

Vibes?

I'm jamming out to Disney music in the shower that is all !

Watching our first episode of Duck Dynasty. Oh my word this may be the best show ever lol

Landed in Ottawa safely on my way home to see my babies.

Great vacation. Much needed.

I made a new enclosure for Gwyneth, after she nearly chewed her way through her old one. It's much larger, and more importantly much taller! I just switched her over and I LOVE watching her explore all her new stuff. I got a small box set up in the corner in the hopes she'll decide to use it as a litter box, too. I'm considering adding a second mouse, but I'm not 100% sure yet.

It's got to happen!!

My good news is, we received over 80 ferals again this week, so we are getting free Noodles & Co from the clinic!

I had a panic attack this morning.

Donny went out and bought me new pj shorts and leggings.

He is a hero.

Not sure where to put this but the good news outweighs the bad news so ... here it is lol.

The van has been having an issue where it starts to overheat when idling. Took it in for service today and get that issue checked out. They just called and the guy says that he has bad news... pretty bad, bad news BUT he also has pretty good news.

Ok give me the bad news first and then the good news will soften the blow lol.

We have a crack in our engine block That's a $7000 fix. This is kind of scary news because we just took a 1000+ mile round trip to Canada last week with a cracked engine block. We are really really lucky we didn't have any problems. More bad news is the part is coming in from the Midwest so it's going to take a week until I can get my van back.

The good news.... we are still covered under the power train warranty so this isn't going to cost us anything. PRAISE THE LORD!!!!! I don't know what we would do if we had to fork over $7000 in one shot.

So now I've gotta find a rental car for the week
