I am really missing coming here daily to check in.  Well, I miss the old journals, but I sort of miss this too.  (Speaking of old journals, has ANYONE ever received their file?  Hmmph)

So, my furbaby has Adrenal Gland Disease which is very common in ferrets 3 years and older, but that doesn’t make it any easier for me.  We are off the the Vet to discuss options on Saturday.  There is surgery (very risky, very expensive) and medical management with meds (doesn’t cure it, but stops tumor growth and they can live the reminder of their life comfortably but not as long of a life as an un-infected ferret, and STILL expensive).  No idea what we are going to do at this point.  He is my sweetie, my little furbaby.  He sleeps in my bed with me.  He follows me downstairs each morning and patiently waits by the cabinet that houses his raisins for a treat.  He is a mischevious little devil, but he is my baby.  Sigh.  I haven’t told the kids yet, and won’t, until I decide what treatment route I am going.

I have a weekend ALONE this weekend.  Well, it is never a full weekend … but, about 42 hours alone.  Saturday, I am up early for the vets and the afternoon I am taking the car in for new tires.  In between, school work.  At some point I’d like to see Full Moon or The Blind Side.  And, just sit and soak in peace and quiet.  Oh, and brave the lines at the supermarket for final shopping.

I just got home at 8 pm tonight.  Work, then DS had an asthma check, home to feed kids, out to parent-teacher conferences … still haven’t eaten dinner but managed to eat crappy snacks while feeding them.  Still have work to do, packing, showers, cleaning, then finally hit the books … zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

HUGS!
