Entry for January 23, 2007
I've been fighting with my blood pressure for a couple of weeks now. It is slowly improving. I'm fighting being tired all of the time. It's been kind of a bummer.
We are still fighting the fungus. I'm not sure if Max is going to make it. He is extremely thin and has lost large patches of hair. We have been vacuuming daily to keep up with his hair loss. Dan said it is like having a cat on chemo.
We continue to get snow off and on and for the most part it is staying. The wind comes up and blows huge drifts across road, etc. This winter is certainly more like winter in Wyoming use to be.
There are so many new business in Casper since we got our second Walmart. We now have a Petco, Office Depot, Staples (we already had an Office Max), Starbucks (they are building a second one our side of town too), several new banks and credit unions. It's just incredible to see so much new construction.
I have some pictures to post of Max, Shi and Ozzie. Not a pretty sight.
Dan is still fighting with the home owner's insurance of the dog's owner for that dog bite. What an ordeal. They asked Dan what activities he was unable to do or to do with less frequency. When he told the lady that he missed out on hunting season, wasn't able to fish, was not able to bike ride and could not go hiking up on the mountain, she called him a liar and said nobody can do all of that and work full time. What a pain. If people just wouldn't let their dogs wander at large this would not have happened. It's not like Dan made the dog bite him!
I'm still busy developing and publishing our churches weekly Sunday morning bulletin. It is fun to do. But, to do it right, it really takes a lot out of me. It is a great ministry for me to be involved with though.
Dan's business is starting to pick back up again. November and December were a little leaner months with the holidays and all. He is just so excited about what he is doing and I love saving money on things that I need to buy anyway! We are going to the Winter National Convention in Atlanta, Georgia next month. I can't believe it is almost here. Dan has been to one convention already, but this will be my first. I sure hope I can keep up.
