Goodbye

I have been a complete blog slacker. Not because I don't want to blog, only because I just haven't had the time.

Since my last update a lot of things have been happening.

I started my Anatomy and Physiology II class - online. I will start dissecting a pig this week.

I went to Nashville, TN for one day last week. I went for the CMA Music Fest and had a great time. I saw some great friends and enjoyed some even better music. Rodney's fan club party was nice and intimate. I was on the front row, center stage. He was literally 3 feet away from me. It was nice to see him again. His family was there and they were wonderful. His mom and Dad and his wife and son all mingled with the fans. The posed for pictures and even did interviews with GAC.

Blake Shelton's fan club party was large and full of surprises. He had an opening act, Damon Smith. He had special guests Craig Morgan, Megan Shehan, Keith Anderson, Miranda Lambert, Nan Kelly, and Steve Wariner. It was a blast.

The most eventful thing happened right before I went on vacation. My little girl (my dog Maddi) started acting strange last Sunday. She was fine Saturday night, but Sunday she was disoriented, walking in circles, not eating and falling down. She was having accidents in the house and was just not herself. We took her to the vet Monday and they were unable to find the cause of her issues.
We brought her home and he deteriorated over the course of the week.
Monday, we made the painful decision to let her go. She was my angel and I am lost without her.

I will miss her countersurfing for pork chops.
I will miss her ignoring me and putting her back to me.
I will miss her standing over my feet for a belly rub.
I will miss her groaning at me while I ate my food.
I will miss her growling at Tasha when she took her food.
I will miss her shy way around strange men.
I will miss the thump of her tail when you walked in the room.
I will miss the way her tail wagged in circles when I drove up the driveway.
I will miss the smell of her frito feet.
I will miss her big brown saggy eyes.
I will miss her...forever.
Goodbye, my precious angel. We love you!
