On the mend

October 20th, 2006 at 04:43 am

The dog is on the mend Thank God. He is even learning some manners although play group this morning was soooo tough for him. He wanted to run with, lick, sniff, knock down (accidently of course) and lick, those little ones so badly and all I would let him do was sit by my side and wait for one of them to get the courage to come over to him. He is really coming along, after an hour I could drop my intense hold on his collar an dhe stayed by me unless they got really rowdy. His "helping" cut down on the rowdy stuff pretty well. His cough is down to only a couple times today and thats with an extra walk even. I am so glad we don't have an extra surgery to deal with. By the time he is done with this antibiotic I should be able to schedule his surgery and then no more vet bills for awhile. Left him in the house alone for the first time today. He was good but so grateful when we came back. We were only gone about an hour and a half. I would have taken him (after all we even took him to church) but couldn't figure out how to fit him, DS2 and a ton of groceries in the car at the same time. DH took the van because he had a conference in the next town. Paid bills today, lots of them! Went to the USPS and got more bills out of the mailbox and have to pay them tomorrow. Thank Goodness we saved before we took that trip !! It makes a big difference when the credit card bills come in.

    I just read your bio and see that you're working on becoming a missionary. Cool! What group are you affiliated with? We attend a Christian & Missionary Alliance church, which is a denomination that is very active in missions (obviously, the name indicates that!). :-) We have friends who are missionaries in Brazil with WEC and my brother and his wife went to Guatemala for several months with another organization.

    We attend a wesleyan church but are mainly non denominational. I have done short term missions trips but right now that is on hold until we finish having children. (we are doing domestic adoptions) When they are of an age and maturity that we feel appropriate we will look to going on some family missions trips and easing into full time. In the meantime we want to become debt free, or at least only have a mortgage. Right now the financial part of that goal is 3 years away.
