So before I start off with my good news there is something I want to ask your help on. You're going to think I'm silly for asking this but my cat has been having problems with her right back foot. She came in one evening for the night like she always does and laid down and went to sleep. Nothing out of the ordinary but the next morning when I got up to get ready for work I noticed a little bit of blood on the floor in the shape of her paw print. I checked her and she had a little scratch on her back right foot. It had scabbed over and she didn't mind me messing with it so I thought she seemed fine and left it alone. This was about two weeks ago. Well, Friday morning I let her out for a little while, I was kind of in a hurry trying to get ready for work so I wasn't really paying her too much attention, she wasn't acting any different but I didn't notice until I let her back in before I left that she was limping a little and it was that same leg. I went over and started to look at it and there were a few more places this time but them looked as if they had happened around about the same time the first one did because of the way they were "healing". When I touched her leg she didn't pull away but she was definitely curious of what I was doing. Well, by yesterday morning her foot was swollen 3 times the size of her other one. I had shown Dillon Friday and we had decided to give it the weekend and see how she did. She's at the vet right now. I'm at work so my mother-in-law had to take her in for me. I'm waiting to hear how she's doing and what the problem is. We think it's infection, we just don't know what from or how bad. Last night when we got home she had open up all for wounds and they were all draining a mixer of blood and pus. The swelling has gone down A LOT since she did that but it's still a bit swollen. When I opened the door of the cat carrier and put a towel down she went right in and laid down. If I didn't know any better I'd say she knew she was going to The Animal Hospital, lol. The first two days she acted normal but now she's seems really tired a lot. Poor thing when she tries to lay down she can't get seem to get comfortable with her leg. I just hope it's not like a snake bit or something. I hope it's something simple and that she'll be okay. So yes, I'm going to be that person who asks you to pray for her sick cat, lol. What can I say, I love the little trouble maker!
Okay, so now for my exciting news! This summer Dillon started to teach me to ride the bike some. I had only done it once or twice up until this week. Honestly, I was shocked he decided to teach me on this bike. We have a Yamaha FZ1. I thought he would start teaching me on a smaller bike, like a 250 - not a 1000! But hey, I am not complaining! Sunday afternoon when we got back from camping we went out to eat on the bike and on our way home Dillon pulled off to the side of the road and asked me if I wanted to drive home. I was like "YEAH!!" He asked me if I thought I could do it and I was like "Yeah!" When I was really thinking "Oh crap. I hope I can do this." But I was determined to try! Well, he got off and told me to take it down the road a couple of times to get used to the clutch again because it had been a little while since I had drove it. So I did till I felt good about it and came back to get him. As soon as he got on and I felt his weight I thought "Please don't let this thing get off balance because I don't think I'll be able to catch it." But I pulled out onto the road and started on our way home. Let me tell you it is a whole other world when you have a passenger! Their balance is so important! And Dillon is not someone who rides passenger often. lol. But he did great and we made it home just fine. When we got home Dillon asked me if I wanted to drive it over to my parents and of course I jumped on that, lol. He followed me in the truck. Well than this past Friday he called me on his way home from work and asked me how I'd feel about driving the bike into town. I said that I would like to practice taking off on hills a little more so that I could get really familiar with the clutch so I wouldn't stall out at like a red light or something. Well, than he told me how he needed to take our friends bike to the shop and drop it off and he'd need a way home and he was thinking we could both ride the bikes into town and then ride ours back home. So, of course I jumped on that, lol. I was a little nervous but once we got going it was GREAT! It was so fun! Especially riding with someone else on another bike along with me. I have always wanted a motorcycle of my own and now I want one even more! I know that's a bit of a long shot because we already have one but I'm very excited to be able to ride the one we have! I'm so lucky to have a husband that trusts me and is patient enough to teach me how to ride! I'm so excited and so thankful! There, that's my big and exciting news, haha! I'm on cloud 9!
Before you go, take a look at the baddest biker gang ever, haha! This was Sunday's ride.
Thanks for reading! Until next time, love harder, be more understanding and seek God with everything you have! Byes!
