Dingo

So we got great news yesterday!!! We have been dealing with cancer in our dog, Dingo and it is a pretty bad cancer. We can not operate on her because of where the cancer is located and the treatment is not known where we live. My husband did a lot of research and got so much information to give to the doctor over here. We were told that she only had 6 months to live and it has now almost been 4 months and she seems to be doing fine. We went to the doctors yesterday and checked the size of the tumor and it has SHRUNK! Not much, but enough to give us a little more hope. We are so excited and she is still eating very well. We hope that she had a good time with what is left of her life. I love her so much and I know my husband loves her just as much! I'll keep ya posted.

attitude

It seems I have been having a rather ugly attitude at home the last week or so.... this also just so happens to be the time that my husband came home from vacation. He thinks it has to do with him, it does not have anything to do with him.... except that he has been having to put up with my 'bitchiness'. Poor wonderful husband. I feel extremely upset about this and that just makes me more angry.
I have been having a problem with this older man at work. I am a short white female and he is an older(much older) black man that is a bit taller than I am. He feels that because he is a man and older he should get respect from me... I do not think that. He has done nothing to deserve my respect and day in and day out he continues to demonstrate that he does not deserve any respect from almost no one. At work he talks about God and how I would be a better person if I didn't speak the way I do. Now, don't get me wrong I love God and I have no problem with a few things here and there being said about what you do or do not believe in, but Please! do not make me listen to an hour of you preach to me about how I should talk to my father and love him when he has never bothered to be in my life or love me or anything like that. I tried for 20 + years to 'earn' his love when I should have had it from the start, well I have given up on the 'love' and him. I no longer care about any of him... and this fool tells me how bad of a person I am because I do not continue to try and put myself through the pain and heart ache of having him belittle me at every turn. Well, anyway. I really do not like this man at work.... and I have yet to learn how to separate work and home just yet. (I should maybe buy a book on that, because self teaching that is not working).
Everyday it is something more whit this man... he even went as far to stop saying 'God bless you' when I would sneeze; come on, really? He makes it a point to say it to others and not to say it to me. When I brought up that my dog has cancer and that it might not be good, he didn't have anything to say to that. My other work-mate however said a prayer with me in front of him.
Well, my attitude has been just so bad because this man that I am speaking of didn't become my real work-mate until three weeks before my husband came back from vacation and He has only been home now for two weeks. So me being by myself dealing with the stress of this person at work was one thing. Now with my husband home and me staying up an extra 3 hours every night has really taken its toll on me and my attitude.
I just want to say: Husband, I love you more than anything and I am trying to separate work and home and not bring that stress home to you. I am so happy you are home and that we get to spend our time together. I love you. I am faithful and loving to you, now and always. I get an attitude sometimes more often now than not but I promise that I am trying to do better. I am even trying to not let that person get on my nerves and Husband, I am trying so hard to be better at keeping my attitude in check. I am not mad at you or upset with you; You are wonderful and I am blessed to have you in my life and I am amazed that I have been blessed so much to have you as my husband. I could never ask for anything more as long as I have you in my life. You are my best friend, my lover, my partner, my husband, my boyfriend, my fashion coordinator, cooking instructor, My Everything! I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you.
Love always and forever,
Your not so wonderful Wife

housing agency

I have been have a few problems with Our housing agency, really just one female that works there. My husband went in to ask if we could have our rent lowered, we really didn't think that they would lower it but it never hurts to ask. This woman that works there called on Tuesday to notify us that the house owner was not going to lower the rent. (We live in japan and right now we pay a bit more than we started paying when we moved in and just wanted to see if we could have a small break) She was very rude to me.
Just a little info :This is not the first time that this woman has been rude. Last year I called to have a tree trimmed while my husband was in the states, well it was this woman (Japanese) to whom I spoke with and I even had my Japanese friend translate the information so it would not get confused between going from English to Japanese. She said she understood that I only wanted the one branch that was hanging in my neighbors yard to be cut. WELL, the next day I got home from work and walked out into my backyard and noticed something strange; The WHOLE tree was cut. There was only the stump of a tree with no limbs left in my yard. I was so upset that I sat there for about 10 minutes and cried. I called the next day and she told me that that was what I told her, and I proceeded to explain that she was incorrect; well this did not go over well with her because she became rude with me and I hung up on her.
Tuesday when she and I were on the phone she became very rude to me and I was done with everything she had to say, I hung up the phone. Today (Friday) I went to the housing agency and spoke with the owner/manager of the agency. Who by the way gave me a job the last time we lived here. I asked her if I could speak with her in private and we went outside to talk. I told her that I was very upset about this woman that worked there and gave her the woman's name and told her what was going on and that I did not ever want her to call my house again. The manager gave me her apologies and said that she would call the owner herself and let me know today about the rent..... also, she wanted to know if I was looking for a job because they would be in need of someone soon :)
She did give me a call this evening and let me know we could pay in dollars and not in yen. WOW!!! GREAT NEWS for us because that means that we no longer have to pay the extra money now! I am so happy and we can start to save that amount again.
I might take the job when this job is over.

BIrthday party

My friend had a birthday party on the 28th of August for her birthday that day. My birthday was just a few days before and she decided that she wanted to include me in the celebration; so it became 'our party'. I had such a fun time! However, now I have 'friends' that are upset at me because I didn't invite them to my party. I had no idea it was even going to include me until I got there and was greeted as 'the other birthday girl'. How can I invite someone to someones party if I am only the guest?
Well, either way; it was a blast! I used one of my 4 times a year drinking there, and am not sure that I will be drinking any more until Brian's birthday at the end of the year.

end of school

Well, I finished my last test for this semester of school and am so happy that I passed everything. I am upset, however, that I will not be attending the next semester of school with this college. I am not upset about not going to this school just not being in school. I really do not like the way this school is set up and am happy that I have more time to focus on the house and my husband but am a little disappointed in myself for not continuing with school. I have always wanted to be a teacher. Any time I was asked what I wanted to play it was always 'school' and I would be the 'teacher' I even teach in my 'free time' here. There just aren't any jobs in the states for teachers and I need to go into a field where I will be able to get a job and help support my family with my husband. I think I have made my mind up to be a dental hygienist. That has always been my second choice of a career. I am great at sales, but where we are moving there is not much that requires a good sales person and I need something that is better suited for my age. I just had a birthday and feel the pressure of adulthood weighing down on me.... I am starting to worry about things that I have never worried about before. I guess it was inevitable that I would grow up, I just thought it would be a little later in life. Well, everything happens for a reason.

sleepy

I have been so sleepy lately. It seems that no matter how much sleep I get, I still want/need more. I know that it is just my body getting use to this new schedule, but it still stinks being sleepy all the time. I love my new job, and the people I work with are really nice too. I am excited to progress in my learning of this job.
It has kind of put a damper on my school, but I am not sure how much I liked my school anyway. I am not sure it was/is the right place for me. It is all only online and I do not have a direct teacher I can just ask a question to. I am a very direct person when it comes to that kind of stuff and we only have 'mentors' at my school and they are not always the same when it comes to grading the work. It drives me nuts. I'll finish this term and see about next term. Maybe by the end of this term I will be on a schedule and will be able to continue in my studies, but if not that just leaves me time for the gym to get into shape again. And NO, Round is not a shape I want or will have! :)
Well, I am off to bed...... I had a three hour nap when I got home from work and I am so very sleepy still. Maybe I will be rested for tomorrow at work.

Earl

I took the dog we are fostering to this 'event' on base today to try to get him adopted. We have had him for about 8 weeks now and only one person has contacted us about him; she was a big ball of crazy. ~side note about her: She was asking about Earl and I gave her information on the phone, as soon as we got off the phone she would send me e-mails telling me the same thing we had just talked about on the phone. Some of her stories started to not add up and I thought better than to give Earl to her. I sent an e-mail thanking her for her interest but that we didn't think that at this time her home was best for him; he has been abused by someone and the home we send him to will need to be a forever home. She sent me an e-mail back telling me I "should be ashamed" of myself and that obviously my home was not good enough for him but hers was because we were trying to get rid of him and she wanted him. From the start I told her that I found Earl and we have been trying to find him a new home after the first two weeks of looking for his owners. That really did upset me and I know that it shouldn't have but I take things like that to heart; I try to do my part and save the animals that I can save and someone like her has to come in and tell me how bad of a person I am. Man, that just made me very upset that my husband had to write the e-mail to ask her not to contact me again for any reason.
So, back to Earl. We were at the 'event' today and not one person looked at him while we where there. When He and I walked away to the other side people would come over and talk to us and see Earl. I gave my number/e-mail to about 5 people, but I am not sure any of them will contact me. I cannot understand why it is being so hard to find Earl a good home. He is a very good dog; he is great with cats and other dogs and wonderful with children. He is about a year old, but I have found other dogs older then Earl good homes. I really like Earl and so does my husband but I just don't think that a third dog would be good for us, I mean, I bring in all the stray animals I find and a house full of animals is just a bit much.

Well, I hope we find him a good home soon. It is going to become hard to let him go after awhile.

Well, I got start my new job on Monday! I am very excited, yet am going to miss my sleep very much. I will have to be up around 5AM and out of the house no later then 6 to be at work by 7. I am sure it will be worth it and I need a better sleeping habit anyway. I do love my sleep!
On a different matter: My mother was in the hospital over night. I was so worried about her. She is doing much better now and is back home. They will run more test on her next week; we hope to find out what is going on.

my never ending speech for class

I had a speech class with a presentation that I thought would never end! I had to do and redo my speech so many times. We have to post it on youtube when we are finished so our teachers can look at it and grade it. I had posted it on there three times before I turned it in. The first two times it was wrong. It took me three months to get that thing done! I am so happy that I am finally finished with it, and if I never have to do that again it might be to soon :) I do not mind giving a speech, I find it fun, it is just the fact that I had to have someone else here to ask the questions for me. Well it is hard for me because where we live there really isn't anyone for me to have ask the questions. It was driving me nuts. This past weekend I got my husband on his off day to sit down with me and ask the questions; I usually go through about 5 times before I am ready for the questions but he had so much to do that I got to them the second time and was done. It was not the best I have done... I messed up a few times but I passed! I got a pretty good score and am not unhappy about it. I am so happy I am done with it.

stuff

I am waiting on information from my new job at to when I start. I got to talk with HR last night and they said it should be here before to long. I don't mind that I haven't started the new job just yet, Brian and I are really enjoying our last full weekend together. I would like to have a paycheck for the first however. I love having my own money and not using the money my husband works hard for. :)
Well, We got our new furniture in yesterday! We love it so much!!! I sat in my desk chair and noticed that it is broken, so I hope they bring a new one soon. I can still use it, but it is new, just out of the box and I would really like one that is not broken. Also, I thought I bought a coffee table that my husband and I picked out, turns out that I did not buy it and they sold the last one off the floor. UGH, He was not happy. Everything thing else with the stuff is great. The big dog loves the new carpet (rug) we put in and the other pup loves the sofa, only where daddy sits. :) She has not sat in my seat or the other chair that no one has sat in yet, just the two places daddy has sat. I'll post pics soon.

new job

When I came into work today I opened my computer to check my email. I had two new messages, both from my NEW JOB! I was/am so excited! There is a job offer in there and a second email that says that my last name does not match that of what the FBI has..... I have to call them tonight and get that fixed so I can have the new job. My last day of this job is tomorrow. I went around telling everyone today that it is for sure now that my last day is tomorrow and I almost cried. I am very happy about my new job but I have been working with everyone here for over a year. I will miss all of them very much. We are going to do a farewell party in four weeks for me and so we can all hang out together again for a little while. I am going to miss everyone so much, but this is such a good chance for me and for Brian.

furniture

I just made a huge purchase! I bought a sofa, two chairs, T.V. stand, coffee table, writing desk for me, and a book shelf. All bran new stuff! Tomorrow I am going to go back and buy a chair for my new desk and a new sofa for the pups! I work at a furniture store for about three more days and decided to get all of this while I still get the discount. I would not be able to afford it without the discount, lol. Maybe in a few years I would have but I am getting it now and am so very excited! Our house is going to be rid of all the second hand stuff that we now use. Not that I have a problem with having second hand anything, it is just that all of it is worn out and in desperate need of being replaced. I am so happy. I have been trying for about three years to get my husband to let me buy a new sofa, well, now I bought the new sofa all with my own money. I feel so proud! He likes the stuff and it was a great deal so he agreed to letting me purchase it. I just wanted to share my news.
Oh, I should hear news soon about if I got my new job or not. (fingers are still crossed!)

new job

I went in today for an interview for a new job. I am very excited to see if I get the job or not. I hope I get it, but that goes without saying right? I am kind of worried however. I just started school and am unsure that this job will give me the time I need,,,, okay lets be real, I am not sure I will use the time I have after work to study. I fear I will just eat some dinner, clean the house some and fall asleep before my husband gets home from work. I am one of those people that loves her sleep. All the jobs that I now have are for later in the day so I can sleep until at least 9 AM. I love that kind of job, for that reason only. This job I will have to be up and nearly ready to leave the house before my husband is even out of bed. Most of the time it will be an hour drive to work and then about two hours home with traffic. It seems like a really interesting job and I can hardly wait to start! I think this job will open more doors for me and the guy today even said that they are looking for other positions that are permanent. That would be great! If I get this job I will have my first 'grown up' job ever!
Well I just wanted to share my excitement. I cannot imagine how excited I will be if I really do get the job. I know it is hard work, but I do hard work now, even if I do get free time to do my school at the jobs I am at now.

to much

I have to learn to shut up.

my new diet

I have been working to change my diet. The doctor told me about two months ago that I should drop 5 kilograms to be at a good weight to get pregnant. He said to keep working out, stop drinking soda and that it was good that I was trying to eat less meat in the week; for me this means two lunches per week are meatless. I have started eating more veggies and even gotten my husband to start eating them with me, we don't have them all the time but it much more than we were before. Over the last two months I have lost 8 pounds, however we have not had the time to go to the gym. I only have excuses why; we both really love it we just cannot find the time. For me working three jobs, and being in school is very exhausting and I try to get as much sleep and spend as much time with my husband as I can.
Lately I have been drinking soda again. Not everyday and not many but over the last three days I have had about 4 sodas. This is big for me because it has been over 60 days from the time I 'gave them up'. I do not mind letting myself have a few things that I want but this weekend has been awful. I have had cookies, soda, muffins, chips with cheese dip and even wanted a slice of cake! I really don't mind giving in every now and then but man I do not know what is going on this weekend; and I can tell that I have had these things because my stomach is not very pleased with me. This past week I have not had the opportunity to take my lunch with me to work, I have had McDonalds, (I used to love this and now... yuck), Subway(it made me feel ill the rest of the day), and Anthony's pizza (it was so good, but again I was ill the rest of the day) and a tuna sandwich the first day that was great!
This next week I will try to get back to my new normal self. I miss fruit and veggies already and I have only been on my new diet for a little more than a month. I think this is going to work out for me.
The reason behind all of this is for me and my family to become healthier. How can I promote health to anyone if I myself am not healthy? I want my children, if we have any, to know that you can eat and enjoy things as long as you do not over do it. I want them and us to exercise and enjoy doing it, which my husband and I do... just no time. but I want that to be part of our daily life. From the time I am able to exercise after I have them I want to incorporate them into my rutine. I want them to enjoy exercise and know that it is fun. I want this to be the new me!
I want to be seen as healthy and be healthy! I want my family to be healthy! I will make this change and I know we will have set backs, but the point of it is that we are going to try and make the changes and become healthy people. We are still going to have our steaks, so please don't think we are going vegetarian : ) Just a little more veggies on the side instead of just mushrooms and onions.

oil spill aggravation

Death is plaguing our ocean life. I find it difficult to 'swallow' that it is not a large number of animals that have died from this oil spill. There should be something done to stop the spill. A temporary solution until a real solution can be found... something! I am so very upset about this whole thing. I do not know what to do, but that is why I am not a BP engineer. Fix your problem, because it is not just your problem. It is all of our problem. The whole world will suffer because of this disaster you have let happen. Figure it out! This site: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100616/ap_on_re_us/us_gulf_oil_spill_marine_life_2 said that there were 783 birds, 353 turtles, and 41 mammals that have been found dead so far, and that this was not a large number of animals; yes it is a very large number of animals!!! Think about if there were 1170 people to have died from this oil spill in less than two months, where would the government be in fixing the problem?! There were 2976 people to die in the attack on 9/11. That is only 1799 difference, and that does not count the fish that have died. No, I did not say it was the same, I said imagine if these dead animals were people.
I am so frustrated with this that I do not even know who to be more angry with, BP or our government. I have always trusted that our government had our best interest in mind, but what about now? Who are they thinking about now? Who is here to help the ocean life that we are so willing to kill off and not lose a tear over? Who is here to protect them and worry about them. I know that president Obama has so much to try to make right, but if BP can not fix this problem, try to bring others in to try to fix it. Work together because it is no longer just a problem for BP, it is a problem for us all.

Manners

Manners are a thing of the past it seems. Everywhere there are people that are being rude for no reason at all. I do not understand this. Maybe I am getting old, but I am only 27. When I was young we said excuse me if we needed to say something when someone else was talking or if we needed to get past someone in our way. There was always a please at the end of a favor and a thank you if it was done or even thought about being done. We said mama and sir and your welcome. Now I look around and it is not just the children not saying these things but the adults too. I was on facebook this morning and someone had said something about being at wal-mart and a woman being in their way and would not move. I tell you what, if it were me and you just stood there looking at me I would have to say something like, 'yes, can I help you?' to them. Do not expect me to read your mind, there is a wonderful word that can be said that would have me move. Excuse me, please. I love that phrase! BTW Not that I would ever try to be in any ones way but just so you know, if I am in your way, just say excuse me and I will in return move and let you know that I was sorry that I was in your way in the first place.
Use your manners please. It makes it a much better world if we all used at least some manners we were taught as we were growing up.

Animals

I just want to say that every time I look at a picture of an animal that has been beaten or abandoned it makes me want to cry. I know that I can not save every animal that is being mistreated but there should be something done about all the wrong doings that happen to animals. There should be a mandatory requirement to have a rescue animal fixed, micro-chipped and registered. There should also be a check done on the would be owner. For some breeds of animals there should be classes that the would be owner has to attend and pass to be able to own those breeds of animals.
All the talk about breed specific legislation, there is a good idea behind all the misconception of this legislation. It is NOT the BREED that is bad, it is how the owner has raised that animal. I own an American Pit Bull Terrier and I know that when we meet a new pup I have to be extra careful to make sure they are going to get along. She loves other animals but will not tolerate another dog trying to be ugly to her or her brother, my husband or I. We have a small cat and our APBT loves her very much and all three of our animals play very well together. She is a hunter and loves the chase of a rabbit, she has yet to catch one.
I feel people should be better educated on breeds of animals and should know that there is no breed that is bad, but there are animals that are hard to handle and need extra training and love. People need to keep in mind that they are animals and should not be made to try to decide if something is right or wrong if you want your animal to know something YOU should TEACH them.
I love my American Pit Bull Terrier and our other two wonderful pets. All three were rescues and the have turned out to be wonderful additions to our family. They are not just pets, they are our babies.

oil spill

this whole oil spill has me upset. There are people working on 'cleaning up' the oil spill, and there are people working on 'stopping' the oil from spilling. I know that we are doing our best to fix the problem and there is no use crying over spilled 'oil', but think about all the damage that could have been prevented. There are regulations in place for a reason; things like this can not always be avoided but I am sure there were warning signs.
With all the unemployed people out there right now, there should be more people down at the beaches trying to help clean this mess up. Volunteer! Get out there and help our country in this time of need. Everyone wants to help for a fire or a flood, well this is just as bad, if not worse. This is going to affect animals of all kinds, sea animals, the birds that live off the sea animals, and humans.
Thank you to everyone that is working to fix this problem.
Well, there are my thoughts. They might not be right, but they are mine.
I have a thought on how to do a short time fix on this problem..... if there was a way to get a "C" clamp with sealing edges around the damaged area I think that would be a great short term fix until a real solution could be found. This could at least help stop more or as much oil from leaking while they look for a permanent solution.

school

I am taking classes on line and I am unhappy with my school at this time. It is all on the web, and there are mentors and not teachers for the class. There are no grades to work towards. I do not really mind the fact that there are no grades, but I worry about how this will affect my getting into a school, after I graduate from this one, for my masters. I am discouraged as of right now and it is only my first semester at this school. I know that I will do well because I want to finish school, but it is just disheartening for me.

American Pit Bull Terrier

This is a touchy subject for me. I love all dogs and this BSL, Breed Specific Legislation is just a joke. It is discrimination against something that is misunderstood. There is no animal that is born bad, they are made that way. This goes for four legs or two legs, dogs or human. I feel that any dog that is 'bad' or aggressive is that way from lack of training and love by an irresponsible owner. No dog is to blame, it is the owners responsibility to keep the animal under control, and if the owner is not able to do this than they should not own a pet. There are many restrictions on the animals you can own but what about the people that can own pets. I own a rescue American Pit Bull Terrier,APBT, and I trust her as much as anyone should trust any dog. We also have a large German Shepherd, Malamute mix and a small cat, both also rescued. They all live in the same house together and love each other. The APBT and the cat play very well together, and have done so for years. The point is: if you raise an animal the right way and show them the love and discipline they need you will have a good dog. The legislation should be for all pet owners or all breeds, not one specific breed of dog. Any dog can be aggressive. BSL is just a quick fix for a much larger problem and if we just let the government pass this absurd law they will continue to pass ridiculous stipulations on many more things than what breed of dog can be owned. I think that we should have regulations to a point, but this should be for all dogs and pets; there cannot just be a law that says that one type of breed is illegal to own. I feel this is discrimination and I do not think it is as bad as a racial discrimination but almost. One day all the APBT will be gone and it will be a shame because they are such a wonderful animal. Anyone that feels different, that is fine because we live in a country that gives us the right to have our own thoughts and feelings but I also think that this means that we have the right to own our pets and not kill off a breed just because of the fear that some of you have about these dogs. If any of you would like to meet a wonderful APBT there are many out there, you may not even know if you meet one.
Little fact: did you know there are 26 other types of dogs that look like the APBT? Yes, you are right when you say that many years ago the APBT was bred for fighting other dogs, but any sign of human aggression and the dog was put down. Maybe you should meet a well trained, well loved APBT before you make your mind up on killing this breed off or saying that this breed is a killer. They are wonderful dogs. Fear drives you, not knowledge. Knowledge and love drives me to inform you that these are wonderful, misunderstood dogs.

Dog breeds

I am doing a paper on breed specific legislation; I own an American pit bull terrier and I do not see how anyone can say that this breed is any more dangerous than the next one. There are about 45 other breeds or mix breeds out there that look like an American Pit Bull Terrier. Let me ask you this; have you ever met my dog? No; Well how about, Have you ever met a trained American pit bull terrier that lived with a responsible family? If you have, how did that dog act? I am sure that if you didn't know what an American Pit Bull Terrier looked like you would never know that that dog was one. So many people walk up to my dog and I when we are our and ever know that she is an American Pit Bull Terrier. Many people confuse 'Pit Bull' with the American Pit Bull Terrier. Get the facts before you try to discriminate against anything. Our society is a 'toss salad' so says our government, but where is the acceptance for this breed? It is not the breed that should be punished, it is the irresponsible owner of the dog. It is the lack of training that the irresponsible owner gave the dog. It is the person that thinks that a dog is just something to show status or own and not a living, breathing animal. We are all just animals, just some of us stand on two feet and should be able to think. However, with BSL I am not sure that we have come far enough in our evolution to be able to think far enough ahead to see that once we let the government take away this right who is to say what right is going to be taken next.
I know that not all of you agree with this post, but this is what I think and how I feel. A dog is a dog and none of them should be trusted to have the inelegance that a human does. They can be tough many things but to think past the normal instinct is just not one of the things you can teach.
I have an American Pit Bull Terrier, a mix of German Shepard, and a small cat. The cat and American Pit Bull play together all the time and they never hurt each other. The cat will sleep next to either dog and they all give each other 'kisses' all the time. I would have to say that there is no way that any one has ever seen a well trained, well loved true American Pit Bull Terrier be any thing but great. My husband and I rescued all three of our pets; the cat was only about 4 months old, the APBT was between 6 and 8 months old and the German Shepard mix was over 1 1/2 years old. The cat was feral and both the dogs were from an abusive home. We will be rescuing more APBT as we get our house and have the room to house these wonderful animals.
