Catching You Up

Ahhhhhh. It has been like forever since I last wrote. But really nothing has gone on in our quiet little abode. Our entire family went through the flu a few weeks ago and survived. This time the Hawkman and his family were not around so I cannot blame them for this illness. Although they might have sent a gift through the mail that contained the airborne disease. Who knows?

Speaking of mail. My mom made a nice gesture by getting all the kids Valentine’s Day cards and signed them from their little cousin. Ain’t that sweet. Well it would have been if she didn’t try to cheat the postal system. She threw these lead laden objects in the mail with a regular postage stamp. Uncle Sam, instead of returning these underfunded letters, delivered them to me postage due. Nothing says Happy Valentine’s day like a disgruntled mailman demanding three bucks. So I see that the letters are from my nephew so I call my sister to bitch at her. She just laughs like it is the funniest thing in the world and points me to the mother figure.

The dog is still alive. That is a big accomplishment for her considering she whines all night. When I say all night, I really mean any time we go near her cage. She is a whiny little beast. Hopefully that will change as she gets older. IF she gets older.
