Some Days You've Got To Vent

Jun 14, 2006 13:47

So far this week has not been so great. I'm hoping things will get better, don't exactly think they coulb be much worse.

Firstly, my rats both had to be put down on Monday. That was a bit of a bummer. We'd noticed these funny scabs on them. At first we just that they'd got a little rough with each other when they were playing. But they didn't get better and Zelda was starting to look rather unhealthy, so mum took them to the vets and didn't bring them back. The vet didn't really know what was wrong with them, but they were both pretty sick and I guess she didn't think they could do anything for them. So that sucked.

Secondly, the people we're buying the house off don't want to move for another 6-8 weeks!! Hopefully though we will be able to find a compromise as I don't think any of us can stand having to stay here for another 6 or even 8 weeks, especially with 'boom boom boy'!

Thirdly, I have a god damn wisdom tooth comming through and it appears to be comming through the side of my mouth rather than the place where it should be comming through and feels like a huge nasty painful ulcer. I am trying very, very hard to not go to the dentist over this one, because I'm thinking they'll want to take it out and I can't really be doing with another horrible needle induced panic attack right now.

Forthly, Staffie x rescue have found a place for Milly in Liverpool. I am relieved in one way (because dad was threatening to take her to the RSPCA) and totally heartbroken in another. I was sort of hoping that the Staffie rescue people would just, you know not get beack to us and we'd end up keeping her. I had sort of got my hopes up I guess that she might be able to stay, especially as she's been so good this week (mostly I think due to the heat rather than anything else). Some days shes just so good and you get these times where she comes and snuggles up next to you on the settee and licks your face and sleeps with her head in your lap. Then you'll try to take her for a walk and she'll try to chase a car and almost kill herself and you in the process or you'll come downstairs to find another pair of shoes in bits or like today a polystyrene filled bean bag all over the garden like snow.

Damn it's so hard, I thought I'd done most of my crying over this. I mean she is my best friend and I wish so much we could keep her, but I know that's just not possible however much I wish it were. Bloody emotions!!!!!

I guess none of this is helped by the fact that I'm getting a sodding cold, have about as much energy as an elderly sea slug and thanks to a sore throat I'm losing my voice.

So, yeah all good news for this entry! Well I guess on the brightside it would take something pretty bad to make things worse, so I reckon things have really got to get better from here on.

Must try for happy, positive entry next time!

rats, milly, me, moving, health
