A video of the dogs

Here is the cutest video of Jackson playing with Bear last Summer, not too long after we brought Bear home. He weighed only about 2 lbs, and Jackson weighed 80 lbs. Isn't Jack just the sweetest big brother there ever was?! Our dear big boy passed away in August at the age of 10, after suffering from a turned stomach. Before we knew what was going on, it was too late. We rushed him to the emergency vet clinic where they x-rayed him to confirm their worst fear. Bear had a very difficult time being without his big buddy, and I know sometimes he catches a scent on a toy and wonders what happened. Jack will always be remembered as our Gentle Giant. But all is not lost... as Timmy the 17-year old cat is learning quickly to either play with rambunctious Bear or tolerate his incessive antics. Timmy has decided playing chase around the furniture is not always a bad thing, and it passifies Bear for awhile. Sorry the video is not higher quality, it was taken with my cell phone.

What free time?

So, in my free time I would like to remember how to use my camera again, maybe spend time with family, get some exercise in. But right now I am in the throes of getting my Associates degree in Business and then on to my Bachelor degree in Business Administration. If my Dad was alive today, I would definitely give him permission to say "I told you so!" This school stuff is hard at my age, and yes, I should've done it a long time ago when pulling an all-nighter was not as difficult.

I will finish my Associates degree at the end of May 2010. I pray for the strength to continue on to obtain my Bachelor degree, but oh it will be so tempting to just rest.

Well, I'm taking a break from writing an assignment in my Business Information Systems class, so back to the books....
