I can't believe January is almost over!

We decided to pay off the Grand Prix a few months early!  No car payments for awhile!

I went to the Desert Museum on 1/18.  I am hoping that going out that day is not what got me sick the following day.  I ended up with the flu.

Paul had it in his mind that he wanted to get a new dog last weekend.  We looked and looked online.  We came across one that interested in us.  There is a family here in Tucson and they are moving to Canada.  They can not take their dogs with.  I contaced them and Bella, their 4 year old female yellow lab, was still available.  We went to go meet her last Saturday, 1/19.  We found out that they actually had 5 dogs.  2 were going with family, one was going with them because it is 13 years old and the other 2 needed a home.  Yes, 2!  We did not want to separate them so we took them both!  Tulla, is 5 years old.  They think she is a Shar Pei mix.  I think she may even have some Pit Bull in her.  But, she is the sweetest dog.  Bella is a little difficult, but she is a good dog.  She is a big girl and probably needs to lose some weight.  Of course neither one of them has been eating all that much since we have had them.

So Paul had off on Monday and started to feel sick that night.  He ended up staying home from work on Tuesday.  He came home early from work every other day during the week because he still was not feeling well.  When I went to pick Nathan up from school on Wednesday he, too, was not feeling well.  It is now Sunday, 1/27, and we are all still recovering.  We are hoping Nathan is feeling well enough to go back to school tomorrow since he had to miss on Friday.  Of course it is supposed to be rainy and cooler tomorrow so that does not help much.  It rained all day on Saturday.  We stayed in most of the weekend trying to get better.
