I lost my glasses. So I finally had to use my contacts. After I put my contacts in, I finally found my glasses. They were in the pocket of my blue hoody. I discovered them there as I got dressed. So I only wore my contacts for about an hour. When I got to class I promptly took my contacts out and put my glasses on.

Diane is back teaching CS162.

Sick Day 2

Well, I was going to go to school today, but I was feeling too dizzy/light-headed to safely drive. My dad felt too sick to drive me to school, so I was stuck at home.

Sick Day

Well, today I'm staying home from school. I probably should have stayed home from school on Thursday. I am using it as a sick day, or a day to help recover from being sick. I can't remember the last time I missed a day of school. Maybe September 2006? It's been quite a long time since I missed a class due to being sick. I slept until about 11am, I vaguely remember my alarm going off at 6am. After I had breakfast I went back to sleep. I didn't wake up until 2:38pm, when my dad called my cell phone. When I finally got out of bed I was feeling dizzy/light-headed, again! So I've spent the majority of my waking afternoon hours being dizzy/light-headed both yesterday and today. Oh joy.

I've been going through the Windows Movie Maker help contents. Trying to figure out how to make and edit my own videos.

I've been feeling dizzy/light-headed all afternoon. I don't know why. My mom suggested that it might be related to my cold. I hope I feel better tomorrow. It makes for fun driving times.

Ruby's 2nd Day of School!

Well, today was Ruby's second day of beginning obedience school. Sadly, we were a little bit late, but, as I always say, better late than never! We worked on beginning scent work, come/recall, and at the very end of class we practiced getting the dogs to wait at the door for the release word. (As in, the dog doesn't get to dart out the door without you.)

I gave her Dramamine about 45 minutes before we headed down to Woodinville. I guess it helped a little bit. She pooped twice on the way down, and threw up at least once on the way down. At least this time I had lots of baby wipes ready to help clean Ruby up, and a set of towels to place in her crate for the ride home. She almost made it all the way home with out getting sick! I got to the gate, opened the gate, and as I got back into the van to drive into the yard I could hear Ruby start getting sick. At least it was quite an improvement over last time. But I do really need to start working on getting her more comfortable with cars, as in being in the car.

I now need to wash Ruby's crate pad, 3 pairs of jeans, and 3 sweaters.

I spent this afternoon with my mom and grandmother. My grandmother's dog had gotten into things she shouldn't have and she had to take her to a specialist in Lynnwood. Last week, Peggy, my grandmother's miniature schnauzer ate up the cables to my grandparents Directv. She went to the vet today and the x-rays showed that she did still have wire in her stomach. The vets were worried about there being copper wire in her stomach. Thankfully, there wasn't, and the specialists were able to get all of the extra stuff in her stomach.

I lost the fight against the cold. Yesterday afternoon I was feeling worse and worse. This morning I woke up with the full blown cold. Head felt like it was being squeezed, nose was a bit stuffy, throat hurts. I spent most of the day in bed with my puppy.
