Another school term winding down

Jul 26, 2005 21:20

Saturday I will sigh a sigh of relief as I put one more school term behind me. I have exams this week and a few assignments to turn in, then it's vacation time for two whole weeks!!! My mom is coming back from Ohio to visit for the first time since she moved there this June. It's funny... I spent my last break from school with my mother in law ( ( Read more... )

Cayley went into heat before I could get her spayed, too. It was so pathetic. Macneil was there with me and we were awakened many times during the night as she wailed.

Congratulations on the end of the term!

Thanks. "Wailing" is definitely the right word for it! :o)

You're happy to have a term over and I'm itching for the school year to begin. Good luck on your exams and assignments!

You mention that your mother misses Corcodel's company... Is she permitted to have a companion animal where she is living now? Would it be too overwhelming a responsibility for her?

Your trip sounds as if it will be a lot of fun. Whereabouts in Maine are you going, just out of curiosity?

I'm happy about it now, but after the first week, I will want back in. :o ( ... )

Oops. Sorry I didn't clarify what I was saying. I'd brought up the companion idea thinking that maybe she'd like a permanent companion of her own, but didn't know if adopting a four-legged friend was permitted according to her lease or if it would be too much for her to handle on her own.

Oh, I see. I suggested this to her a while back, but she told me she would worry herself to the point of obssession over the pet. What little bit of social life my mom has would disappear instantly. She would not be able to go anywhere out of guilt for leaving her pet alone at home. She would constantly worry about the water level in his/her bowl, or whether s/he's lonely, or bored, or maybe a plate fell on his/her head... I wish I was exagerating, but... I'm not. :o)

Rentinga cabin with a bunch of gamers sounds like a blast! Hope you have a good time. :-)

Thanks! I'm sure we will! :o)
