R.I.P. Abby


Above is a picture of David's dog, Abby..Full name: Miss Honey Abigail Raiford. She passed away this evening. She had cancer. I just wanted to take some time to reflect on Abby...She was the sweetest dog! I loved her very much and i will never forget the fun times I had with her..I felt that me and Abby had some sort of connection...when i first started going out with David and started coming over more often, she would always jump up on my lap and give me kisses all over my face. I could always tell by the look she was giving me that she appreciated how much i care and love her. Along with Abby was her sister and brother, Daisy and Eddie. They were best friends. Abby loved going outside and loved playing in the monkey grass. Abby usually stayed out longer than Daisy and Eddie. Oh yes, and whenever someone would be in the kitchen getting a snack or cooking she made sure she was right there incase food dropped so she could eat it! A couple of times and the last time was just a few days ago, i was eating a piece of chocolate candy and i dropped it and tried to get it from her but she had already beat me to it! She was quick!
Ive only known Abby for a couple of years now..The Raifords' had Abby for 10 years! I will miss Abby very much and i will never forget her! She is in a much better place now..Abby isnt hurting anymore.

Where to go?

Lately ive been wondering where my life is going to lead me...Im getting married in June of 2010 and im going to school now for Child care and Development...during my first semester, i wasnt sure what my major should be so i took just a couple of general classes. I only took 5 hours. Now since ive changed my load to 12 hours and my major to child care, its almost the end of the semester and now ive decided that this isnt for me! Ive decided not to go to school next semester. David, (my fiance) isnt mad, just a little disappointed because he just wants to see me graduate. Id like to see me graduate too but i feel theres no point in me going since i cant find anything at school id like to major in. Well, since two weeks ago i started taking a cake decorating class. I love to bake! Right now im focusing on the possiblities of career oppurtunities for cake decorating. There are four courses and i plan to take all four! I just dont know where to start (job wise) with the whole cake decorating thing. I know for sure that its something id enjoy doing for a living! Everyone says i should start a business, maybe someday i will. Its all this wondering and changing options and deciding on what i should do that is making me nervous. I pray that by the time we get married, i will be plenty sure i know what i want to do!
