It's All About The DAWGS ....

Today marks 36 Weeks.   Today marks the day that if Shila should start labor on her own, it won't be stopped and we'll have a baby!  Today marks the day that if Shila goes into labor and progresses too quickly, she won't get a c-section.  LOL.   (She had a c-section with Clairah because she wasn't progressing, natural births scare her more than a C-section.  The doctor thought a C-section would be a better choice for Shila, and that's what Shila wanted anyway.)

Shila had her 36 week OB visit today.  It was the first one that I didn't sit in on where I went with.  (There was one appointment I was too sick to make it to, I couldn't drive that day.  So Kale's step-mom took them.) ....   anyway - I didn't sit in on it because they did an exam and the Group B Strep test on her.  So Kale & Shila's report was that she hasn't dilated at all ...  Baby's heart rate was good - but the doctor could barely  hear it because she wouldn't stop moving (Elly wouldn't stop moving) ... and everything else was good.  Oh she measured 37 weeks, just a week ahead, which is pretty normal.

Then to my Mom's to sit with the dogs.  We've been going over there to sit with them because A: Keya's old and he has been going potty in the house - so we take him out pretty frequently (when he's not sleeping)  B:  Jaxson is a trouble making dork.  He has to have his people around and he doesn't like being alone.  So he'll chew things up.  He'll hunt things down and chew them out.  He'll go upstairs and take Mom's shower brushes.  He'll somehow get to the table and chew stuff on there.  He'll rip the molding off the walls and chew on that.  He's just a destructive little shit when he's alone.  DESTRUCTIVE.   C: Their roommates stay up in their room all day and d on't watch the dogs at all.

(my step-dad's son's best friend moved in awhile back, they got kicked out of their place - I guess because of their bull dog -Spike-, who was a puppy at the time of them moving in.  So they've been there, with the reasoning that "J-he" was looking for a job.  Once him and his wife "L-she" got jobs they'd find a place.  Well, I think they've been there for well over a year now.  They both have jobs.  Doesn't seem to be interested in finding a place.  And why would they when they do not pay rent for the room they have, don't pay jack crap towards any of the bills. But "J-he" acts like it's HIS house.  Last week - we had Clairah on Thursday and we went over to my Mom's to watch the dogs.  The day we were there prior to that - I had walked in when we were leaving - and "J-he" was bitching to my Mom how the kids were running up and down the stairs and making all kinds of noise and he was trying to sleep.  Which I didn't know.  No clue.  Mom told him that if he had just come down and said "Hey I'm trying to sleep, can you try to keep the kids quiet a bit?"  I would have.  And I would have.  I don't think he knew I was standing right there.   But I spoke up and told him I would have myself.  Well then on Thursday - Clairah was with us, she was crying - crabby a bit.  The kids weren't all that noisy - I kept them quiet in the house but not so much outside.  Well DB went and picked up Kale and he was playing with Jax with the laser, cuz Jax thinks he's a cat and chases the laser. Well Kale was laughing pretty loud.  But he had only been playing with him for like 3 minutes - if even that - when "J-he" came downstairs and says "let me see the laser" and Kale said he ripped it out of his hand and put it in his pocket and said "I'm trying to fucking sleep and you are being too loud" or something along those lines.  Clairah's crying didn't bother him, the kids didn't bug him - but the 3 minutes of Kale laughing - set.him.off.  We all left after that - he just makes us so uncomfortable with his I'm better than you attitude.  He's a guest in that house JUST AS MUCH as we are.  It's not HIS house, even though he acts like it.  Mom says we're less of a guest because we're actually family.   He's not.  I like his wife just fine.  But him - just can't stand him and his my shit don't stink attitude.  Anyway... the funny thing is - is when they are home, they don't take care of the other dogs, but when they aren't home, they ask for Spike to be checked up on.  -rolls eyes- ...  Oh and - nope I forgot what I was going to say.  Thanks CFS/Fibro brain.   Oh I remember now.  DB and Kale don't want to get into anything with him because they don't want to disrespect my Mom and Step-Dad or I think we'd all give him a piece of our minds.) 

Bella allowed me in her presence today.   I was over there pretty much by myself most of the day (by myself with Kaedyn that is) ...

Jax was laying by me while I was working on my laptop.

I have been really tired lately - so I laid down on the couch for a bit, and this little baby dog was whining in my ear, so I was petting him and he took that as an invitation to come lay - literally - on top of me.  On the couch.   Yeah.  Worked out well.  (she says sarcastically)

Spike was whining really bad, he was scratching at the door upstairs and all that, so we took pity on him and brought him outside to play with Jax for a bit.  "L-she" came home after he had been out awhile and I yelled from the back yard that Spike was outside with Jax.  So she came out after a bit and got him.  Told me thank you for letting him out - he can get lonely.  Him and Jax are BFF's.

After she took Spike back in I let Keya and Elly Mae into the back yard.  Keya and Spike go after each other - so they have to stay separated.   Jax gets along with everyone.  Only Elly Mae puts Jax in his place now and again when she gets annoyed with him.  LOL ....

At one point Elly Mae laid down by me cuz I wouldn't open the door for her.  LOL.

More of Bella.

Oh yeah, there was this dirty faced thing with me .....

We went to leave and this is how the dogs were.  LOL.  Jax is like "can I go back out?" ... Keya and Elly Mae are all kinds of worn out.

After I got home - this thing decided to make me his scushing bag.  He loves me.  I lubs him too.  I like it when he claims me as his.  

Was working on Fallon and her pet battles still - to get her up to 100.  It's gonna happen tonight.

See that little itty bit of bar that isn't blue.  That's one pet battle away from 100 - and then - WALA!  Fallonaurora is level 100!  YAY!!!!  

I then proceeded to send her over 20,000 gold from Luna to upgrade her Garrison and get armor.  Armor was needed, I went to go get some followers and died in 2 seconds.  Her trinkets were under 100 .... I was like, holy heck!   Guess that's what happens when you sit there and pet battle your way from 71 to 100 instead of questing and getting crap armor along the way.  Ha!!  But I got her armored up and got my garrison fully upgraded - or the ones I could anyway.  And it took over 20,000 gold.  That HURT.  I hate it when Luna is under 20,000 gold (she was down to 12,000 gold) and I work hard for the gold I have.  I am an Auction House Queen.   Everyone comes to me for gold.  And I pay for my subscription ever month now with the gold I make in game.  So I just am not comfortable until I have 20,000 gold - and it's silly, because that's A LOT.   Regardless - I am trying to get over 50,000 gold right now so I can get the last piece for the Auction House Bot in my Garrison so I don't have to keep going back and forth to a main city to deal with auctions.  Ha.  That's not going to happen any time soon.  Humph......

Anyway ....  that's it.
