Anyone want a puppy?

So last Thursday Chris is on his way to poker and almost hits a puppy while driving. So he stops...gets out...checks the dog...sees its cute face and decides he can't possibly leave the dog to get hit by another car. So he brings it to the Eppler's while he plays poker. He calls me, since I was at Papa Gjorgios enjoying my friends birthday party, and says come pick up this dog I almost hit. I was like...."WHAT???!!!???" I know for a fact that if the shoe was on the other foot and I almost hit the dog he would a) be more concerned with damage to the car and b) kill me if I even thought to bring the damn thing home!! So I go to the Eppler's and see the pooch...and damn it is cute. I am not a big fan of Labs but who can't fall in love with a puppy. So needless to say we still have the puppy while we are trying to find it a home. Her name is Wrigley while she is here and Griffin loves her and I probably will break his heart by taking the puppy away but damn...the last thing I need right now is a 4th kid. I already have Chris, Griffin & Meg...I don't need any more!!

So other than cleaning up after it seems like everyone...nothing much is new. Meg will be trying out for Couganns at the end of March...which is stressing me out. Luckily her grades have been better so maybe she will get the teachers approval. But I guess if she doesn't she did it to herself. I wouldn't wish a teenage girl on anyone!! Griffin continues to go on the potty on his own. I really wanted to wait until summer to train him...but if he is ready....I guess he is ready.

I know that I haven't written in a while but really my life is not to exciting lately. I have a great looking rash on my face thanks to me not taking my medicine as well as I should...so I have to hurry and try to get rid of it since I go to Tulsa to see the doc in about 3 weeks. I am tired all the time and really a bit depressed. I am not sure what that is but it seems like I am taking care of tooo many things and people and no one is taking care of me. I feel like I am sometimes taken advantage of which I guess happens to most mothers. Chris just figures that I will clean up the puppies messes. Megan just figures that I will drive her everywhere. Griffin, well he is helpless so he doesn't really count. I guess I can't depend on anyone to do anything but myself. It sucks. I need some serious "me" time.

Enough whining....I have to get off here and be a taxi to take Meg & Chloe to dance. I hope all is well in your little corners of the world. But wait...one more thing....regarding the whole James Frey Oprah book contraversy....I read the book....loved the book....don't really care that he "embellished" some facts...I feel anyone that can beat a serious drug and alcohol addiction is pretty amazing. I think Oprah went a bit over the top on her show when she basically ripped him a new one. She showed a different side of herself that I didn't like. I would tell anyone that is a reader to read the book...it was moving, sad, uplifting, depressing all in the same book. Incredible story. That's all now.
