Puppies

Here are a couple of pictures from our Easter weekend spent in Swift Current. We were pleased that Kiwi and Riley finally became friends. Riley tends to want to play all the time and would pick on Kiwi until she would play with him. We corrected him a number of times over the weekend and Kiwi put him in his place a couple of times. Now they can lay close together and not fight.

CPR

I have been watching the first season of ER lately. I always enjoyed that show when I watched it. I just watched off and on in the 15 seasons. In watching I have noticed their CPR techniques. I realize that the actors they are performing CPR on would probably not appreciate a broken rib, however their CPR is pathetic. I will admit that I have never performed CPR on someone, and I hope I never have to. When I learned CPR I was told that if you are doing it correctly you will quite possibly break a rib or two. Also, you need to be directly over top of the person to give enough pressure, unless maybe you were performing it on a child or infant, who need significantly less pressure. I know all TV doesn't have to be perfectly realistic, but I think that ER strived to be quite realistic, and I think they could have done a better job with their CPR.

I just watched the episode where Dr. Green performs an emergency c-section on a woman and then she dies. Man, it made me cry. It must have had an impact on me, because watching it, I remembered watching it years ago as a new episode.

My first Ebay purchase!

I have been thinking lately about getting a new purse. I thought about looking for one when I was in Calgary in a couple of weeks. That was my plan until this morning. I was browsing on Ebay, just for fun, and I came across this purse. I thought it was pretty cute. I checked and the current bid was $14.50 and the auction ended two hours later. I asked Jay if I could bid....I have never bid on anything on Ebay before and did not know all the ins and outs. He said sure, that I could even use his account. I bid $15.45 and an hour or so later, I won! With exchange and shipping and whatnot it worked out to be $36.67. Not bad I say! For a brand new bag (with tag attatched), Nine West brand (not really into brands, but I have seen some pricey ones with that name on them) and the ad claimed that the original purchase price was $56USD. Not bad! I had considered spending up to $50-60 on a new purse in Calgary. So now I just have to sit back and wait the 10-15 business days for it to arrive. Unfortunately it likely will not arrive before the Calgary trip, however I think it will be a good purse. It's a fair bit bigger than my current purse, but it's not HUGE like some people's purses. I just don't think I have that much to carry around, but I do think it would be nice to have room to keep a snack or something in my purse other than just the bare necessities.

This morning when I went to get the dog fresh water there was a spider in the kitchen sink. EWWWWWWWW! I hate spiders. I said "I am not going to touch it, or squish it!" So I turned the water on hot and the little spider went for a waterslide ride around the sink until it reached the drain. Byebye spider! :P

Arleen's Wedding

Jay took this picture of me over his shoulder without looking. Not bad, I say!

Ceremony

The girls.

Nice picture of Karen and I.

The only picture of Jay from the day. I guess that's what happens when you are a photographer, you are never in pictures yourself. Which I think suits Jay just fine!

It was a lovely day. I can't wait to see their professional pictures!

What a husband!

Jay just won tickets to the Blue Man Group on the radio! We are hoping that we can trade them in for accessible tickets, but if not, we may sell them to purchase our own. Looking forward to it!
