I can't wait for this weekend! It is a 3 day weekend beings Monday is Columbus Day! YIPPEE! I love having an extra day off to spend with Micah! Hopefully we can come up with something fun to do.
Speaking of Micah, he has been off on his sleeping patterns this week. Monday morning at 4:30 AM he woke up crying (more of a whimper), but when I went into his room, he was still sleeping. So I picked him up and he went back to sleep. Same thing again last night! I am thinking that he is starting to have dreams. It could also be that he has gotten 2 bottom molar teeth in the last week and he has 2 top molars poking through as well. After these 4 are in, he will be up 12 teeth!! Believe me, do not stick your fingers in there, he is like a Venus fly trap, he doesn't release!! As I am screaming, let go, let go, he finally releases with a grin. As I am checking for blood, he is smiling from ear to ear!! I will be avoiding sticking my fingers in there at all cost from now on!!
Plans this weekend consist of shooting some pool tonight. We start league on Monday night so we need to practice. We have decided to play again after taking last season off. I miss it!! Craig and I are going to shoot every other week so that we do not have to get a sitter every Monday night. I hate to do that every week for 18 weeks or so! Saturday I am heading to SF for our bi-weekly grocery shopping. It saves us a butt load so it is worth the sacrifice of going to Walmart. An example, Cereal, have you ever bought cereal in town? Dang, that is armed robbery! It makes me mad that someone who has the monopoly on the grocery store is taking advantage of people like that. I get my milk, eggs, bread etc here but almost everything else I get somewhere else. It makes me so mad to watch the prices here, I want to scream, "YOU ARE RIPPING PEOPLE OFF!" Ok, I will step down off of my soap box.
My vehicle has something wrong with it. It is making a whining sound. I believe it is either alternator bearings, idling pulley or possibly a belt. At first I was thinking power steering pump, but I quickly realized it didn't do it more or less when I was steering so pretty sure that isn't it. We have had pretty good luck with our vehicles, so you will hear no complaining from me. It goes to the vehicle doctor on Monday. Hope this visit doesn't break the bank!
An update on Baxter. He sure seems to be doing well. He has some spunk back which is great! I have been giving him 1/4 pill 2 times daily and that is cake. He doesn't mind it at all, I just give him treats at the same time! The problem we have is that he is supposed to take the potassium supplement 2 times a day and he won't eat the food we mix it in with, so we have had to take the syringe and shoot it in his mouth. He does well with it for the most part, but it isn't alot of fun. I am keeping my fingers crossed that the vet sticks to his word that we won't be giving that to him any longer once the container is gone!! He is out at the vet today getting more blood work done. I just hope his levels are good and what we are doing is working!! Should find out more tonight!! Thinking happy kitty thoughts!

Happy TGIF!! Gotta love the trips to Walmart. I too am SHOCKED at the prices of things around here. I can save about $2.00 on a box of oatmeal by going to Brookings or Sioux Falls..it's NUTS!! I'm seriously thinking I need to start doing the bi-weekly or monthly grocery trip to Walmart...probably save some major $$!!
Sounds like Micah is getting so major teeth! Hopefully his sleeping patterns straighten out for your sake and his :)! Glad to hear Baxter is getting better too. I hope your car isn't too sick..he he! I know that can get pretty expensive. I'm happy Jeff is able to fix all our car issues..that helps a lot :)!!
Have a great weekend Tess!!

Happy Friday to you too..Tess..speaking of TEETH...our new puppy..Lucy Lu sure has the sharp teeth...boy does she like to chew..I keep my fingers out of her mouth too!
Glad to hear that Baxter if feeling better...hope it keeps up.
I'm busy making our laudry room "puppy proof"...with the wedding coming up and Thanksgiving...I think we might need a safe place for her..I don't like to keep her in the kennel that long..
Hope your car is an easy..fix...
Have a good week end...love ya Diana
Pool league...as if Mike wasn't busy enough, you HAD to talk him into that!! I'm just kidding!! It sounds fun, and it is smart to rotate, because babysitters get expensive!
It sounds like Micah has a whole mouth full of teeth. They are really sharp when they first come in too. You are wise to keep your fingers as far away as possible.
I saw you again in Sioux Falls from a far distance at Walmart! I hate Walmart but like you said...it is a must with the prices at our local grocery store. I go almost weekly to Walmart. I hate it...once winter come we go every other week.
Caymen's sleeping patterns go off when she is getting teeth too. Bummer...
I am glad that your cat is doing better!!
Poor Micah and getting some teeth in. What a hard stage for them. It effects just about everything!
I hope you had a great day off today!!
Glad to hear that your cat is doing better.
I hope you make it threw the teething stage. I can not complain, Caden was a great kid threw it. Most of the time I did not even know he got his teeth. So that is good. I hope things get better with that for you. Which I know they will.

Those teeth will do it every time!! Poor little guy!!
