day in a life

there is a small purple and green winged dinosaur in my living room, watching Bob the builder. It's a very sweet one with blond hair and tiny toes.

we were taking part in a research program and me and my 3 year old were answering questions and his hearing was tested also his vocabulary and stuff like that. apparently there is something strange about his right ear. they can't measure anything from it. they say it's nothing to worry about because he talks a lot and very well but it's strange not hearing well and nothing being able to do about it. I'll just trust the specialists. but I can't wait for the result and seeing were he stands compared to other kids his age.


Spock is doing a bit better, he is a bit more like himself. the thing about him is that he is more of a person than other dogs I know. I can only explain by talking about him, when he is running free like in my step-dads summer house there is a certain bark and I know just by hearing it that he is stuck or needs something he can't get to. another bark is when he reminds me about his dinner if he thinks I'm running late. Also when he needs water I know from his voice what he needs. if he wants to go out or come in I know by his bark or a small growl. when he barks at people I know when we are having visitors he knows and when people we don't know comes close to the house, the best thief alarm. it's a lot of stuff like that, that make me think of him as more of a person than other dogs, including Sisco. a lot of trainers have also said that if he had a good coach as a pup and through his life he could do anything and everything. He's also a big momma's boy. my only 'child' for 5 years. I think his problem is mainly that Sisco is taking over, he is being very dominant these days. I need to get him neutered.

There is so much to do at school, I'm working on projects every night and day. I come home from work and have about an hour and 20 min. before I get my boy from playschool, I use that hour as well as I can but then I can't work the same way after he is home, sometimes I can get a lot of work done but not often. then the boy goes to bed at eight and I try to use the evening as well as I can, but sometimes I just want to read or watch tv... But I do love school.
