Hi everyone. I have not posted in a few weeks so I thought it was about time.
Most of you probably know by now that I decided to surrender Sam back to the SPCA. I had been thinking of it for some time and decided to definitely do it after Bob and I talked last monday night and realized how much that Sam was not only stressing me out, but Bob as well. With us both being gone all day Sam was not getting enough exercise and therefore acting out behaviorally since he was unhappy and bored. He peed in his cage and/or while he was walking around in the house nearly every day, was getting more hyper by the day, and was hard to control when walking him. He was about 60 pounds and I consider myself to be strong but he wreaked havoc on my neck and back just trying to walk him. I consulted with someone familiar with the breed who said that coonhounds need to do what they are born to do- hunt. Since we were not using him for that and not giving him enough exercise, he was bored and unhappy. She supported my decision to give him back so that a family more able to meet his needs could adopt him.
So, Bob and I took him to Erie County SPCA thursday night (the only night they are open because I did not want to miss work) only to be told when we got there that they could not take them because they had no room. This had me feeling horrible. So we took him back home and Bob kindly told me it was "the baby Jesus' way of saying keep the dog." I disagreed. I knew nothing would change if we kept him and stood by my decision. So the next morning I called niagara county spca who did have a kennel available (I learned my lesson and called first) so I took him this past friday morning, alone, which was difficult. I felt better leaving him there because it is a smaller facility and it seems like he would get more personal attention. They two ladies who interacted with him were very friendly, so that made me feel a little better. Also, it being niagara county and not erie may increase his chance of ending up on a farm with other dogs or with someone who will use him to hunt, which I think will be good. So I am still sad and it is difficult to come home/wake up to an empty house (bob is long gone by the time I wake up and I usually beat him home from work) but I do feel it was for the best and hope to get another dog eventually. I miss his cute lil face and his craziness though.... [[sigh]]
Anyway, things at work have been very busy and a lot of students are coming in (or being walked down by coaches/faculty) without appointments and many are experiencing suicidal thoughts or have attempted, so I am feeling a bit stressed (hence my blog title). Otherwise, things are going well and Bob and I are taking my mom out for Mexican food as her bday present. I am looking forward to thursday night at Tully's, too.
Well, i need to finish up here and head on home. Hope all is well with everyone.

Happy Tuesday!
Hello!
Glad to see posts by Susan and Olivia!
Susan--tell everyone hello when you all go to dinner. I wish I lived there so I could go too! When do you leave for Spain? That will be an awesome trip!
Olivia--I didn't know you worked at PetSmart. We go there quite a bit because Dave has a huge fish tank and he likes to get supplies there. Your presentation sounds interesting. Good luck with it! Are you applying to colleges now? Where do you want to go? I remember you saying that you want to be a vet or a vet tech, right?
Not too much happening here either. Keeping busy with work. We are also taking on a huge home improvement job. We are getting all new windows in our house. The one's in here now are the original one's the house was built with in 1951. They are single paned and very drafty. I am hoping that our heat bills stay low once we get the new windows. But wow its expensive! I now know more about windows than I ever imagined. Who knew there was more to it than just glass and wood or vinyl! We had to choose from double pane to triple pane, aluminum spacers or this intercept thing, grids or no grids and if you want grids, what style??? Crazy how much is involved. We thought we would just pick a person and he would put windows in. Not so at all.
Can't think of what else we are doing so I am going to go.
Love,
Tricia

7 days!
Guys, 7 days without a post is pretty bad huh? I know, I know, I am guilty too, but we shouldn't go this long!
So anyways, how is everyone doing? I am alright....just another bad day at work! haha So my new plan for my future is that I am going to have to work through another tax season, I will work here until August and then put my 2 weeks in....well that's my tentative plan, we will see what happens!
I had to miss breakfast at Grandma's yesterday cuz I picked up a hostessing shift at the restaurant. There aren't many shifts I can pick up, but when one comes up, I'll do it. I am trying to keep my foot in the door there, cuz if I go back to school, I want to waitress during that time.
I am excited for dinner on Thursday with Grandma and Grandpa. For the out of towners who probably don't know, Grandma and Grandpa are taking all the grandchildren out to dinner. I feel bad that they are insisting on paying, but they want to. And then after, Lauren, Mark, and I are going to plan out our Spain trip! We want to figure out where we're going, rental cars, hotels, and all that stuff....a month and a half and then we leave! I am scraed to death of the plane ride though, but as soon as that's over, I'll be alright!
Well, I gotta get to work now....have a great day everyone!! And there better be another post on here by next Monday!
Love you,
Susan

I just ran in quick to wish Sarah a good day. Also, Olivia..I sent you a text on your birthday, but you must have a different number than the one I have saved. The one I sent it to ended with 5171. Anyway, hope your 18th was fun!
I promise to blog very soon when I get more time. I have dinner in the oven now and have to hang some wet laundry.
Hope everyone is doing well. Love the picture of our newest cutie in the family!! Wish her and Steph well from us, please!

Hi!!
Hello! How is everyone? I am doing alright here..happy for the weekend to be close!
So I got my car back yesterday...I was kind of hoping it would drag out a bit longer tho, or at least until Monday so I could've taken the rental to another Bills game! But it is good to have mine back, I just feel like now that it's been in a pretty bad accident, that it isn't 100% anymore you know? But I am just paranoid with cars so it's probably just fine!
Lauren and I went to see Steph and Kaylee in the hospital yesterday. Steph looks great, and Kaylee is sooo cute! The plan was that they are going to go home today, so hopefully that happens! I think my sister was planning on taking Grandma over to the house to see them today.
I get to leave work at 4 today instead of 5 to drive a sale tax return over to a client's house. I volunteered for it of course!! They live like 10 minutes from my house so hopefully I will be home before I would normally have gotten out of work!
I can't wait for the Bills game this weekend...it's going to be a littly chilly, like 60 - 65, but it's looking like it will be sunny so I'll take it! The only problem I have with going to the games is that then I have to miss breakfast at Grandma's, which I hate missing!! But, I guess it's a fair trade-off right? haha
Well, I guess I'll get back to work now. I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Hi all!
Hello!
Olivia--welcome to the blog!
What's new with everyone? Things have been slow on here. I know everyone is busy and cannot check in daily but do you think we can start a check in once a week kind of thing? If we all post at least once a week what we are up to, we can still stay in touch. What do you think?
Today is my dad's 65th birthday. We had dinner and cake for him on Sunday and tonight I believe he and my mom are going out to eat.
I am trying to get caught up after being on vacation and I think I finally did it. The remainder of the things on my to-do list should get done tomorrow. The kids will be at school and classes are canceled at work so I will be home doing the remainder of my work. I am also preparing and sending out resumes in search of a full time job. I like the jobs I have now but everything is sporadic and it gets a little confusing trying to keep up with what I have to do for each job and knowing where I have to be each day. I would like to trade it all for one job and one steady paycheck. So, the resumes are going out. What will come of them, who knows but at least I am getting started. I would be lucky to get a job with the way the economy is. And hopefully I can find one locally sometime soon.
Anyway--that's what I am up to.
Bernadette--how was your birthday? Did you do anything special? Did you walk on Sunday?
Kristy--B&S Season 2 comes out on Tuesday. I am nervous to watch the upcoming season because I think Tommy's character is tainted for me since he cheated on his wife in real life. I think I will apply that to his character....although his character cheated on his wife too....so maybe it won't matter after all. What do you think?
Well, we are all getting hungry so I should get dinner ready.
Love,
Tricia

bernadette- i hope you have a wonderful birthday! what are your plans for the day?
also about the walk,lauren, susan myself and my mom were talking about it. lauren had mentioned that she didnt want to go because she doesnt want to remember her mom for that. that she wants her to be remembered for who she really was... not the sickness. and upon hearing that, i realized that i agree. (that is probably why my mom had said that she didnt think i was walking, cuz she was there for that convo.) i really am sorry about changing my mind on this. also susan asked me to let you know that she was planning on going, but there is a deadline on monday, so she wont be able to get out of work... shes going to have to be there on sunday for most of the day. she also says how sorry she is.
well thats about it for now.
love and miss you all!

I missed a post
Sarah- I had missed one of your posts from the beginning of the month that I just read now, and now I know what happened to Susan's car getting hit! I don't know how I missed it? And that is awesome about the large tip. I had that happen once at Damon's and I double checked with them and they said that yes, they had meant to leave me that much (I can't remember how much it was but over $100). God Bless those people!

Helllooooooo...where are my walkers?
Hi everyone. The Out of the Darkness walk is this sunday and so far only me and Susan have "joined" our Steps4AuntDeb team.
Sarah- I know you are on vaca with Tricia now but I mentioned to your mom that you and Susan were going to walk with me and she said she did not think so???
We have raised $225 out of $250 as our "team goal." If no one else ends up walking with me, I am not going to walk but the money still goes to the foundation, which is good. Bob and my parents may all be out of town this weekend, and Josh may have to work, so depending on their schedules, some of them may walk, too.
Please let me know before Sunday if anyone is definitely going to walk and we can set up a time/place to meet and then go to Grandma's after.
Thanks!
Bernadette

Hi everyone!
Hello!
How is everyone? The kids and I just got home from walking. The path usually takes me (when doing it alone) about 45 - 60 minutes. Well, today, with two kids, a cracker/juice break, it took an hour and a half. I think I will go without kids from now on. The path is about 4 miles long. Its a nice walk but my usually good kid was whiny and my usually whiny kid was very good.
Susan--how are things with your car?
Sarah-see you tomorrow maybe but if not, on Saturday for sure!!!! Can't wait!
I have to get lunch ready and then do a lot of work so that I won't have to do too much this weekend.
Bye for now!
Tricia

Qu for Susan
In addition to what happened with your car, when you joined the team for the walk, were you asked for a t-shirt size? I am thinking that is how people get t-shirts....
Thanks!
Bernadette
Thanks!
Bernadette
good morning cousins!
well here i am with susan and cooper again. susan and i just went to the police department to pick up her drivers license, registration and accident report. then a little later, off to enterprise to get her a rental...
i forgot to mention something that happened on my work day on friday. i get to work and find out that 3 out of 4 hibachi chefs left, just quit, at 1230 that afternoon. they told us a story of what had happened, but no one really believes what they said. we had one chef left, sky, and the bartender (who used to be a chef) had to cook also. we couldnt take any walk-ins between 6 and 730. and one of the servers became a bartender, which didnt work out wonderfully! but they had 2 new chefs in by saturday night, and tim, one of the chefs that we used to have, got back yesterday... so it back to normal for kyotos.
so thats about it! my last day of work is over! so i have 2 days before i leave for pa! cant wait!
love and miss you all!

Suicide Walk
Thank you Sarah and Susan for walking with me. I think my dad will too if he is off that weekend, which I think he is.
Thanks to Susan and Bob who have generously donated so far! We are already halfway to reaching our goal! Maybe I should have aimed higher than $250!
Don't forget to spread the word for those family members who do not read this or have email (Susan and Sarah- I forgot your parent's email so please make sure to tell them). That would be great if we can get a whole bunch of us walking that day. I completely forgot to mention it sunday at brunch...
I emailed them to change registration for a team so that we call get t-shirts. I am not sure why it says "individual" and only asked for one size. I definitely registered us as a team but probably did something wrong...
OK, almost time to leave work so I got to wrap up some things. Hope everyone is having a good day!

SUICIDE WALK
Hi all. I've registered us for the walk (if I did it correctly). I've named us "Steps4AuntDeb." I believe we get t-shirts but it did not ask me how many walkers we have??? Hmmm- I'll keep everyone updated. Please spread the word to your parents/siblings... let me know who else plans to walk in case I have to specify how many. Also, I put down that we will try to raise $250. I will let you know how to do this once I figure it out but I have a client now.
Jenn- So scary about the bear in your neighborhood! I am glad Mia is enjoying school! How are you doing?
Tricia- have fun beginning classes again. Did you get the boys and you ready by 7am?
Sarah- Sam is OK but still peeing in his cage. Ugh!
Gotta run!

where is everyone?
good morning cousins! i hope everyone is doing well! here i am, drinking my coffee watching tv with cooper...and susan.... susan was driving my mom to work this morning when this lady ran a stop sign and hit her car! so we have been waiting for the tow truck guy to call. and i have to drive her to get a rental car after her car gets towed. so here we are...
work has been pretty busy lately... on friday i had a table of 4 people. their bill was 163 dollars and some change. they gave me the bill and said i was all set. i counted out the money and there was 300 dollars in there! so that would be like a 140 dollar tip! the 2 guys that paid had left so i went up to the girls and asked them if the bill was all set and they had said yea is something wrong? so i told them that the bill was 163 and there was 300 dollars in there and they were like omgosh thank you so much for being honest!... they called the guys to see how much they actually wanted to leave and then the guys called back to tell them to leave more because i was so honest about the whole situation. just something i felt good about doing!
so i have one day of work left before my vacation starts. i have wed off and then thurs we are taking my parents out for dinner at kyoto's to celebrate their anniversery! and then friday morning i leave for pa! so i am very happy about that!
well its been about an hour since i started this... we went to meet the tow truck guy who was very nice and informed us of alot of stuff we didnt know. so we got susans car towed and now she is calling insurance companies...
so thats about it for me today! hopefully someone else posts soon!
love and miss you all!
