Things are getting better every day with the pup. She's getting to know us and we're getting to know her. I know it takes a little time but we're bonding and we'll get back to where we were with Nola before we know it. Even The Sweet One was saying how he isn't sure she likes us yet. Well, I'm certain that she likes us. She's a dog and we feed her for god's sake. But I do know what he means. We just don't have the LUUUV yet that we had with Nola and that's normal, I think. We'll get there once we start getting into more of a routine and learning each other's quirks. So far she's been sleeping through the night and she hasn't gone to the bathroom in the house in a few days now. We're making progress! (yeah, she does a lot of sleeping!)

SOooooo...I have to make the wedding cake I told you all about a couple of months ago and I have to admit, I'm getting a little nervous about it. The wedding is on September 15th so I have to use next week to get it all together/baked/frozen/iced/decorated...AHHH! I hope it all works out. I took this picture of the picture from a bridal magazine that my cousin's fiance wants her cake to look like.

It looks easy enough. At least I'm confident that I could do this. Thank god she didn't pick something more elaborate. I guess I would have just had to tell her that it wasn't gonna happen if that was the case.

Of course I haven't practiced making the colored fondant or anything but how hard can it be, right? I really hope I'm not getting myself in over my head. I guess I better make a schedule for myself. I'm thinking decorate it three days in advance in case I have to go buy a replacement...HA!

So, I found out yesterday that I should be layed off, or at least know my future at work by next Wednesday. So here I sit and wait some more. I just hope they lay me off at this point. It's so frustrating but I'm gonna keep a (fake) smile on my face and be very positive and professional when all I really want to do is drop kick those bitches, get them in a rear naked choke and beat them down! But anyway...enough of that. (and yes, Danjerus - i know that I should just suck it up and look at the bigger picture. I am trying to do that, I really am, but this is being dragged on so long I feel like these people are never going to let me move on with my life, BUT I do appreciate your advice and I really do take it to heart and I know I don't have it too bad, I just like to complain about it)

So, it's Thursday already and for that I'm thankful. I hope everyone has a great day!
