Been busy work and school. I have a decent chunk of time off this week so I want to get ahead on hmwk and do some baking. I've wanted to bake some bread and general fall goodies. I don't know why that is. I know my mom gets into bake mode when it turns fall, maybe its genetic. A diet-debilitating baking disease :P.
Turns out Bella (the ferret) was really sick. She has had really bad congestion (think pneumonia-but ferret sized) and violent sneezing fits. We had taken her to the vet 3x in the last few months for her shots and a check up because we concerned about the sneezing and congestion. He said lets wait and see. We finally had enough of wait and see and went for a second opinion. About the time we called the 2nd vet Bellas health really deteriorated and the ferret specialist ran some tests and found out she was indeed a very sick girl. She (and the other two fuzzy monsters) are currently on some antibiotics. Giving antibiotics to a ferret is like trying to shoot a very small squirming target. Its entertaining and takes some skill and you aren't always going to hit the target. This can be proved by the pink stains on both the ladies (the squirmiest of our three)-the antibiotic amoxicillan is made for animals but they never changed the flavor from that yummy bubble gum flavor or color!
I'm currently working on my save the dates, school, work, and trying to do hmwk and sleep somewhere in there. Anyone who is working and going to school can empathize but you gotta do what you gotta do. People with FT jobs and/or kids do it (how? I'm guessing large doses of uppers in the shape of a styrofoam cup filled with the essence known as coffee :)!) and I don't have kids and its only a PT job. So I've gotta tell myself, yes its hard, yes sometimes I feel like quitting, and then I remember there is always somebody out there who has it worse and me complaining about my pathetic shit (excuse my french) helps no one, least of all myself.
So here I am, trying to stay positive, self motivated, and sane. Wish me luck and speedy access to that styrofoam cup filled with happy :)!
