Yeah. Well I'm going to be gone all of next week.
For those of you that dont know, cancer runs in my family. My mom, my niece, my aunt, and my cousin have different forms of cancer.
Yesterday my mom tried to kill herself.
She has Lukimia, lymphoma (sp?), and other problems.
They took her car because she cant make the payments, because she cant work. Workmans comp has yet to finalize her pay, and they have yet to pay her for being off work. So carmax took her car. She only had three more payments to make. Pretty fucked up.
So I completely understand where she's comeing from. They put her in the hospital and she'll get out sunday with the condition that someone is there to watch her. I have next week off, so I volenteered as the only sister that dosent have a kid to take care of, and for the fact that my mommy needs me, and I'm really freaked out for her.
This is a really crappy x-mas gift, and I'm pretty screwed up right now, so forgive me if I'm short with anyone or if i'm bitchy.

Other than that, I love you crazy Flinkin' bastardos and I hope we get all of our members to join, Devsy should Know what I'm talking about. lol

Merry freakin' x-mas everyone I'll see you again monday next week! -hugs- to everyone I like. -noms- to those I really like (Devsy, Soppy, Komar, Jblood, Nimmy, Kiye, Nick, Davey, Mina, and the countless others that I've nomed over the years lol). -punts- to those I dont care to talk to.

Have a good one everyone! Dont worry about me, I've already had my meltdown, so I'm good. My mom will be FINE I'll make damn sure of that, and everything else? Well, I'll see ya next monday

So, on thanksgiving my blue heeler took down a Coyote.
I KNOW! It was crazy!
It went after my weenie dog Willie.
(To add drama I'll describe the even, lol)
I went for a run as usual, about 8:30pm, and didn't get back to the house till about 10pm. It was, needless to say, dark. My little flashlight was turned off because there's not much need for it on the home stretch. I was only about 30 yards from the house when I saw something flash in front of the road, and I turned my flash light on in time to see the damn coyote after my little Willie.
I screamed at the little idiot to run, he just cowered on the ground and shook, and I ran toward them.
I knew I'd never make it there in time, but my dogs were all out and my Border Collie reached the pair before any of them. He stood over Willie and barked at the coyote. It turned and ran toward me, luck me.. My heeler was, as always, with me, so when it headed our way she got pissed. Cause, you know, no one threatens mom and gets away with it!
It got about half way to me, and she was on it, and then they took off and my little heeler launched herself onto its back and with a bit of a struggle she snapped its neck. (I was all 0,0)
Mine you, this all took place in the pitch blackness with only my little flash light to see by.
I first checked Willie, then Sly (they were the closest to me) and ran to find my Heeler. Daisy seemed ok, so I took them all to the house, and put them in their kennels.
The next morning I checked them again, Daisy got a steak for her troubles and Sly got a huge hunk of turkey.
I felt so horrible though, my little heeler had a huge slice taken out of her head, which I couldn't see in the dark. It was clean, she's kenneled with another heeler, but still.
So I took her to our vet, they stitched her up, and she's ok now. But MOG! She's one tough little dog! At least, that's what the vet said XD
My little devil dog!

To Do list:

I wont be online for awhile. I dont know how long, but I just dont have the want to log on right now.
My niece has gotten much worse.
She goes to the hospital ever couple of days now, and soon they'll put her in permanently.
She lost all of her hair last week.
She's dealing with the sickness caused from kemo, and the baby.
They're going to take the baby in a week.
We had to do a baby shower last weekend at the last minute, because they might take the baby any time now.
Depressed.
I'll update when I get the energy.

Cancer sucks.
A T-shirt I just got from the doctors office we got back from yesterday. A more apt statement I've never heard.
For all those that don't know, cancer runs in my family.
But the worse case of cancer belongs to my niece, Kayla.
A week ago today the doctors told her, not that she had terminal cancer (we already knew that) but that she would die one of two ways; internal bleeding, or suffocation. Either would cause someone to shut down, clam up, or just fall into a deep depression. But Kayla is resilient.
You see, not only does she have cancer, but she's pregnant. She's 6 months prego, and they want to start kemo treatments next week, before they take the baby. They said it wont hurt the baby.
What brings all this up you might ask?
Today she asked me for one gift for her baby shower. Not for her, but for her unborn baby.
A scrapbook.
She asked me and my sisters for a scrapbook, in which she plans for us to fill with photos of her when she was a baby and from all the years of pictures we have of her. And she's going to fill it with her own writing, sayings, and a journal in the back to tell the baby of things that she did, what she liked, and in general who she was.
Mostly I just felt like venting, if your reading this;
Cancer sucks.
