Enter Stewie

Good morning.
Wow, it feels like I haven't done this in ages. I believe my last post was ended abruptly when I had to take the trash out. As I was getting dressed, I heard the truck coming and I missed him! Three weeks in a row now. There is no way I'll miss him again this Monday, I have way too much garbage to get rid of now.
We were expecting a call from Hubbys boss this week which never came. I think Hubby expects to go back to work this coming week. We finally got a cheque from compensation on Valentines Day. So that was cool, we spent the day in town running around paying bills and shopping. Finally able to get our prescriptions filled again too.
The weather has been awful. Hopefully this deep freeze is coming to an end. Little R hasn't been to school much in the last couple of weeks. There were a few "inclement weather" days and a few ski trip days and a P.D day yesterday. We have a ton of snow out there. We have some rather deadly icicles hanging from our house.
Just as Eddie and Bear were getting settled, getting used to each other, we got Eddies brother, Stewie, delivered to us yesterday. My friend was telling me the owners were wanting to give up Stewie too and Hubby says "tell her we'll take him too". After thinking about it and sleeping on it, I decided it wasn't a good idea. I didn't want to go through the whole thing over again, so I sent an email saying nevermind let the other people have him. Apparently, my friend never got that email until AFTER she had delivered Stewie to us, ugh. Stewie is very submissive, Eddie totally dominates him. In fact Eddie is quite a handful, even more so with Stewie here. Especially with Hubby possibly going back to work next week, I don't want three dogs here. Unfortunately my friend has other more pressing matters going on right now, so it can wait until she is ready to come and get him. There are other people who want him, I think.
I did catch part of that episode of Oprah a couple of weeks ago, about the secret of happiness being uncluttering your home. I so know that. That is my goal. Tripping over 3 dogs is not in that plan. Having a yard sale in the spring is the plan. I've taken a couple of loads of clothes to drop boxes in town, but I'm sure I have a couple of loads to go yet.
The brilliant doctor who diagnosed me is leaving in August. That was a surprise to find out. I saw him the other day and I asked him if I would be on this medication for the rest of my life or what, and thats when he told me. He gave me a prescription for like a years worth of medication, and told me my family doctor can take over. Cool. I still haven't heard from the specialist regarding my biopsy results.
Valentines Day was lame. We didn't have any money until that day, and it was a snow day for Little R. So while we were in town we got a bunch of candy for her to take to school the next day, and we got each other candy. I understand Hubby had no money for the usual roses and jewels.
So, its been an uneventful couple of weeks, just waiting for this weather to let up. No plans other than keeping an eye on the dogs and maybe getting some laundry done.
Have a great day.
