Hello again!

I know I am very irratic at this blogging thing. Work has kept me very busy. I have worked the past 3 Saturdays and I will be working the next one as well. Work is great!

My mom is coming back to IL in one week. I am so excited. She is getting in very late on MOnday night so we decided to get a motel room, stay in the cities and do our Christmas shopping the next day. Hubby isn't happy about me staying away from home for the night mut he agrees that it makes more sense that me taking her clear out to Grandma's that night and then go back and get her the next morning and take her back out after shopping. My kids have their lists ready.

Cassie found out last week that she is on the basketball cheerleading squad after all. Two of the girls quit the squad and she was an alternate. She is very excited. Practices start tomorrow and are every day for the next two weeks. They perform for the first time on the 24th.

Mason is doing better with his allergy shots. The first couple of time he went in he cried. He HATES needles. He admits they don't really hurt, it's just the thought of it. He gets himself all worked up thinking about it.

Well, November is a crazy month around here. We start off with Thanksgiving at the church next Sunday. We will have Thanksgiving with Mom's family on the 22nd (which is my husband's birthday). My Grandpa Whitley's birthday is the 23rd, my MIL and niece's birthdays are on the 24th and our anniversary is on the 27th (17 years). We have 2 babies due in our family this month so that is very exciting as well.

I have to share a sad point. My dog Coco is have seizures. She has had a coupdl of small ones over the summer but tonight she had one after another for almost an hour. I am very worried for her. She is about 10 so I know she won't be around much longer but she is such a loving and loyal dog it really hurts to see her like that. We have only had her just over a year and it feels like we have had her forever.

Well, I need to sign off this thing and get some supper for the family. Take care and stay well.

Sorry about your dog. I don't love animals, but I wouldn't want to watch Jack be in pain. Exciting for Cassie. Miserable for Mason. Do they help that much. Totally jealous about the Thanksgiving thing. So there!
