Flower feels better after the horrible horrible fleas are are gone.

This is her playing last night with her mouse.

Yes, she’s fat, but I love her all the more.

Those aren’t dirty dishes you see.

With Fall comes school and with our current economic state college seems to be going down the toilet.  I am fortunate that I got all the classes I needed, but I can not say the same for the rest. This whole ordeal make me angry and not a lot of things do that.

First they cut classes, I’m ok with that as long as they leave enough sections of the class for the students who need it.

They raise the tuition during summer after everyone has registered for the classes and as paid for at least part of their classes. That’s messed up, if you are going to raise the tuition the students should at least be notified the semester before hand, so at least they know what they will be getting themselves into. Plus the students who are already able to pay for their classes are now completely able to do so.

On top of it all the faculty is doing mandatory furlough days, where the teachers have to take 9 mandatory days off! The faculty is unable to teach, check emails, grade or do anything having to do with school or students on those days, plus a 10% pay cut.

I just started following Sockington a cute and imaginative house cat twitter and I cant get enough.Now even people who are allergic to cats can follow on around.  With posts like:

I’ve been so horrible- from a couple posts a day to BAM! none for over a month. I can’t think of any particular reason why, so I have non to give. I do plan on trying to be better about posts. To catch up on Meg’s life:

My sister had baby number 2, a girl on August 28th 8:50 am. Unfortunately I was unable to make it see my new niece but I hear that she looks like my dad and that my sister had an easy birth and short labor. I can’t wait to go back to Visalia to see her.

I present to you Haleigh Mae Fowler (pronounced Holly) with grandpa and big sis.

School started a couple of weeks ago. I hope to graduate in the spring, if everything goes right *crosses fingers* Who knows what will happen? (a rant about school comming soon)

Before school started work was scheduling me a ton of hours, not that I minded or anything I just wasn’t use to it. It seemed like things were slow for a while there and then all of a sudden we picked up! I think they would promote me there if I hadn’t have school. Damn school! Always in they way! (Just kidding) A part of me wants to get promoted so I can do better, but I know that wont spend the rest of my career there. I’m grateful and humble to have a job because I know that a lot of people out there don’t and are having troubles.
