Quickie... nooo, not that kind ;-)
So I'm still working on the post from the whole nephew-being-born experience.. it's a really long one so I'm working on it here and there. So in the meantime I'm gonna do a quick update..
Things have been going good here. I haven't fallen, contracted any illness, or had much boy drama.. which is a sickness all of its own! On Saturday I drove out and stayed the night with my sister and justin so that I could take care of my baby Hayden during the night while Venus was still recovering. It was a stressful time actually.. venus is SO emotional right now, bless her heart! She'll come out of it eventually. Sometimes it's just so hard being female. Justin is doing a great job with the new baby and helping out around the house. He had 11 days off of work and instead of resting he was constantly up doing something.. whether it be feeding/spoilin the baby, laundry, tending to the pets, cleaning, etc.
Rhett on the other hand has not been so well. After we got back home on Sunday, Rhett got the diarrhea. This morning I woke up and there was a huge puddle of blood on my bathroom floor ( thank heavens it wasn't the carpet! ) so I immediately got some clothes on and headed to the vet. I decided to take him to Barnesville b/c I knew the bill would be expensive and wanted to put it on my mom's tab there. For the last couple of days I had been tellin' everyone that I think he has parvo.. and everyone dismissed the idea.. even the vet at first. For anyone who isn't familiar with parvo, it has a VERY distinct smell. So after the fecal sample was taken everyone nearly gagged and they decided to test for parvo! SO in the end we are now treating him for parvo or corona virus .. which the treatments are very similar. He is on flagil, amoxi ( just incase it is something bacterial ), gastro chews and I had to bring home a lactate ringer to give him sub-Q fluids. I don't like stickin him with a needle and giving him fluids under his skin ( camel hump ) but I suppose it must be done.. I'm not sure if the outcome will be favorable.. but I certainly hope he makes it through..
Oh.. I have a job. I had a call from ImageSun which is a tanning salon here in hilliard. They asked me to come in for an interview yesterday ( tuesday ) at 4:30. I did. Then I got hired on the spot. I start this friday at 2:pm. It's nice b/c I'm salaried and get bonuses and commission.. so that'll be nice. Any extra money to help spoil the baby will be great! Oh.. AND I get free tanning and other perqs!!!! No more tanpro which is where I usually go to the tanning bed. I still can't believe someone was silly enough to hire me ;-)
Other than that I'm headed to the doc tomorrow. It'll be my second appointment with a doc this week.. BLAH I say! No fun.. but at least I'm not "sick" or anything.. just basically routine stuff.
