What’s Shakin

I didn’t think I was gonna be take a 26 day hiatus after the month long Comment for a Cause, which by the way raised $158 a bit down from last year but whatever. The money is going to a great cause and that’s what should matter.

I do have to say that the mini break was good. What have I’ve been doing for the last 26 days? Well I’ve been dealing with dragonboat related stuff off and on the water, since our racing season has began, we are on the water more. I’m also working on my clubs website and working on H2oGeeks behind the scenes stuff (finding a sponsor or two, team uniforms, paying for boat rental and the two regattas out of my own pocket) which I want to have all set in place before the 1st practice which is in a few weeks. So by the time I started thinking that I need to write a post on PGN (this site) I just was to tired to type something out. Though I did have a few things to write about but to late now.

How was everyone’s long weekend? I personally didn’t do much this year but relaxed and went to my two practices though I didn’t have to work yesterday so I got an extra day off. YAY!!! Though I did call in to check my voicemail at work so I wouldn’t have a huge number today.. Speaking of work, I should head into the office for a bit. I’d personally would love to work from home more (and work in my pj’s) but we aren’t allowed.

Have a great Wednesday!

C4AC #3 – RIP

Comment for a Cause (C4AC) is back for it’s 3rd year. C4AC is my way to raises funds & awareness. This year I’ve picked Right to Play as my charity of choice. Each comment this site gets equals $1 that I will be donating at the end of the month.. Don’t forget to keep up to date by subscribing to my rss feed

Never thought today would come, one of my cats Scott who just turned 16 in February was put down this morning. We believed he had a mini stroke yesterday because all night last night he wasn’t himself no balance (when he was sitting or walking), crying like there was no tomorrow and decided to sleep in front of his bed instead of in it.. I barely was able to sleep last night and 1st thing this morning we took him to the vets.

He is a little bugger he didn’t want to go to sleep he was fighting it tooth and nail. Though I do have to say he is a little grumpy trooper.
- He was in a cat fight years ago (when he was still able to get outside) where he jumped funny and ripped the tendon in the knee, cause of that and old age he got bad hips
- He also swallowed a thread and a needle (sharp end 1st)
- He got out for 3 days months after we moved.
- He is also got cat asthma, gone blind and now deaf
- He climbs 13 steps a few times a day to check out the 2nd floors food dish to see if its any different then the one on his floor

Thought we were gonna put him down 3 years ago but the vet say that if he can still can walk and jump. It’s those 3 extra years I’m glad I got a chance to have extra time with him.
