day in a life

Saturday morning, almost noon. I am just sitting in my kitchen drinking my coffee as usual. I am very tired these days, my big boy, my oldest dog Spock has been sick so the last 4 nights have not been fun. He had to fast for two days and he'll get a special meal tonight in small dozes. He even had some medications, he'll get the last one tonight. It has been a very eventful week for the boy cause on Friday a week ago he had a teeth cleaning and they had to pull three teeth out. Nothing big and just small teeth that won't affect eating or anything. My poor boy is getting older, he'll be 12 in October. I hope he'll feel better now when he gets food in his belly today. He has been drinking a lot so that is good, he is just kinda weak now, he doesn't even ask for food like he used too.

In a week my son will be at his dads house and I won't see him until Wednesday the 14th August, it's almost a month and it's a bit scary. I have never been away from him for that long. He is getting so big though, 7 years old and wants to be more independent. Though there are times he just wants to cuddle on the couch, yesterday we watched 'Man of Steel' and after the movie he brushed his teeth and climbed into my arms on the couch and fell asleep, very sweet.

Today my brother is 32 years old, I think I'll go see him later on we are not very close but that is mainly because he is a very closed and quiet person. I am not one to stand out but he is even quieter than me. I am happy for days if I get a decent conversation out of him.

There has hardly been a real summer here on the ice, raining most days and not that warm, so I have been very happy about that. Most people are annoyed though.

The battery on my laptop died yesterday so it needs to be plugged in at all times, very annoying. A new battery is very expensive and it's a cheap almost 4 years old computer so it's not worth it. I'm gonna see if I find a cheap one in London to get me through the year. My plan was to buy a new one before I started my MA.

Nothing is going on here on the ice, or at least in my life. It goes on. So I'm just gonna go with it.
