Swivel Sweeper

ok so we got a swivel sweeper....and Lowell was suppose to clean his room in order to be allowed to use it...and well...he didn't clean his room at all and so he didn't get to use it...we put the battery in and Max and I used it for a while and then I was going to use it to go clean the front room and it stopped working...and now we can't get it to work...and so Lowell is beyond upset because he can't use it at all now...we are trying to figure out what is wrong w/ the battery without much luck....:(

Strangeness and an update

Yea I know it's been a while since I last posted. Ok Ok a LONG while. Let's see...since I last posted Max has gotten kicked out of his maintenance job at Heinz, Daisy has passed away (she had a liver disease and she just didn't recover), Max has applied for a new maintenance job at the Simplot plant in Aberdeen where they make fries, and Lowell has grown!

I am not sure what to say other than that...I am on Facebook now and so is Max and we do try to keep updates going regularly. You can add me and keep updated if you wish...I will try to be better about keeping this page updated but I am not going to make any promises!

I am so glad that everything seems to be turning for a good way. The job interview (Max seems really excited about getting this job). The possibility of moving again...this place that we are at now really is just too small; that is about all I can really say about this place!

I made apple pie filling with my Grandma's red delicious apples that grow in her back yard!

Yes I know 'tis sad that Daisy passed away but she just wasn't a happy kitty at the end and I decided that it would be best if she didn't have to suffer any more...they asked me if I wanted her ashes and I told them no...I have enough pictures and videos of her...well enough for her 8 year long life with me.

Max and I are thinking seriously about the possibility of getting a Sheltie or a Shetland Sheepdog. We have been looking at information about them and I have called a breeder and asked her all about her dogs. They sound like they would be just right for our family in that they are small but not a mini. They love kids and get along well with other pets i.e. Jack. They also are very smart and therefore easy to train! = )

I guess I could do a little update about Jack...he is doing OK health wise but well he just has been a different cat since Daisy passed on. I am not sure why but for some reason he is a lot more playful now than he use to be. My mom claims that it is because he doesn't want to join Daisy and "go away" and I am thinking that it was because when Daisy was sick all she wanted to do was lay around and he was such a sweetheart about her that he would just lay around with her. He has sadly put on some weight and I am thinking that it is due a bit to stress but he isn't anywhere near as heavy as he once was so I am not going to complain too loudly about that!

I am thinking that I am done for now cause I just don't know what else to write.
