Nothing much goin on...

Was kind of a slow week w/ not much happening. A played with his new Nintendo Wii pretty much daily...he's enjoying it alot and seems to be getting a decent workout with it as he's tired when he's done. LOL

Work was same ole same ole...spent one day going thru the warehouse pitching lots of old computers, sometimes throwing/trashing that stuff can be kinda therapudic!

I'd really like to make some changes in regards to work, my dream job is to get out of the IT world and go work at a vets office, preferably one that works in rabbits. I have tons of things I've learned in regards to their care/sickness and I would love to put that knowledge to good use. Sadly, those jobs don't pay anywhere near enough that I can afford a change like that. I need to win the lottery and pay off some stuff so I could afford it! Maybe someday....**sigh**

Hope all is well with everyone....

The weekend.....

It was a hectic one to say the least.....first, Friday nite started out w/ a birthday celebration for none other than Corky himself... He seemed to really enjoy his "cake" that my son (A) and I made for him....the rest of the herd also got some celebration goodies as well...

Saturday was cage cleaning day, so A and I got that done, then it was time for a trip to grandmas...so we went there, spent the afternoon and had dinner there....before making it to grandmas we stopped by this furniture place that was going out of business, they have new stuff and consignment..we were looking for new dressers.......instead I found the neatest old hutch, solid maple, (not that pressboard crap you find now a days) We had been looking for something for the kitchen for awhile but everything we found was crap and very expensive crap!! So they had this marked at 275, I told the guy I'd give him 225, and he was like, so 50 bucks off, just like that? I told him, be glad I didn't offer 200....he shut up and took it..LOL...Paid for it, told them we'd be there for it on Sunday... I will try to get a picture of it soon, its immaculant, only marks on it are some small scuffs on one leg, will be easily taken care of with some Old English.....

Next quest...(first a lil backround) A has saved all his christmas $ and some other $ that he's saved along the way for the Nintendo Wii....of course one was NOT to be found before Christmas....so after he's been calling all stores like 3x a week looking for one...well we had a hot lead that Sunday morning Target was giving away tickets before the opened, you got a ticket, you get a Wii.

Now, keep in mind we are supposed to get a storm....the plan is to get to Target fairly early so we can be sure to get a ticket....and hubby (R) was going to go to a different one so we could be sure we get one...(jeesh, the things you do for your kids)

Sunday morning....wake up (at 5:30 am no less), several inches of snow on the ground...take a shower, A cleans the snow off my "urban assault vehicle", and we head to Target...stand outside w/ about 15 other people in the snow for a good hour.....(one person not even at the front of the line had been there since 4 am, insane)... They are to give out tickets at 7 am....the guy comes out about 5 after and says..."we aren't giving them out til 7:30"...WTH, here we are in the snow storm standing out there, couldn't he have given them to us and told us to wait in the car, what a jerk!

R calls from across town, ticket in hand...by then A and I can't feel our feet...so we head across town to hook up with R and go make the big purchase! QUEST COMPLETE!!!

Head home so A can play..boy is he having a ball with this thing!! Noon comes, time to go get the hutch and get it inside. We get that done about 12:30 and I start to work on things in the kitchen to rearrange etc...oops, 1:00, time for 4h meeting! Kids were doing a workshop building carriers for hauling rabbits to show....there's another 3 hours gone. Get home, finish as much as I can for the time being in the kitchen....TIRED... I've had enuff for one day!!!

I will try to get a picture soon of the new setup, still need a new floor, but the kitchen is now more organized and not so much stuff laying around (woohoo, I have counter space). I love the new hutch...but MAN was that a long weekend... it was almost good to go back to work to "relax"...

Thats it for now... :)

Starting this thing out....

Ok, so my friend at work, Iowa Greyhound, has been telling me I should put one of these up..so here it is!

A little about me...I work in the IT industry...my big love is my Holland Lop Rabbits...I raise and show them...they are a huge part of my life and consume a good chunk of it. I adore them and love having a hobby that I truly enjoy and stick with. I have been raising/showing them for almost a year and a half.....the true bunny love of my life, Corky, will be 2 on Friday!

I will post things about life, my bunnies, babies we have, show stats and anything else good I can come up with!

I don't have a whole lot to say today... I called in sick to work cuz the sinus infection I've had for close to a month has gone rogue..I woke up w/ sore throat, headache, and a wonderful fever! Ok it wins, I went to the dr and he just shook his head...they were completely swollen shut and he wasn't sure how I'd stood it for this long! **shrug**
