So this is why I'm
behind on pictures?
An extremely
stressful and busy month. Both Doug and my parents
took ill this month. Doug's mom cancer, and my
parents advanced dementia which requires a different
level of care now for them. My parents had
been living about 10 minutes from me in a very very
upscale nice retirement community. Over the past
two years we have escalated their care, both personal
and cleaning but we knew we were fighting a losing
battle as they continued to get worse. Finally we
were asked to move them and so the search and battle
with Fraser Health began. Very difficult to find a
place for them where they could stay together. We
had them here with us for only a few days and I thought
we would all go insane, Finally we finally found a place
close to my sister, where the population demands are not
as large as in the Fraser Valley. We are all
adjusting to the change and hopefully things will be
smoother in 2011.
Now the good news.
We finished two champions also in Nov/Dec. Both
Cuba and Izzy finished both US and Canadian
championships. Nothing to show now for a few
months :-(
Mykensie brought
home the best report card I think I have seen. All
A+ and A's so we are very very proud of her.
We had three
litters this month - that was just insane, although they
were all easy births and the moms have been great.
Still it is so much work and I was in Germany for 1/2 of
Nov and 1/2 of December.
I change jobs in
January so the whole family is looking forward to having
me home as my new job as NO travel requirements.
Looking forward to more time at home in 2011.
Happy Holidays to
everyone from our whole family, four legged and two
legged
