Lots of travel lately. I was in Florida all last week and then St. Paul all this week. No one ever gets excited about getting anything done till the end of the year. The Florida trip was pushed out from three weeks ago and the St Paul trip was supposed to happen back in September. I’m headed back home now though, writing this on the plane again.
We got the insurance settlement from the cars. They totaled my car and are repairing the Accord. We went and bought a 2004 Nissan Pathfinder last Friday to replace the X-Terra. Not a bad deal, the Pathfinder is nicer than my X-Terra and has less miles, though I’m a few grand in the hole now. That probably puts off my purchase of a BMW for a while. Of course the insurance won’t pay out the settlement till I give them the title to the X-Terra, which seems to be somewhat of a mystery. The X-Terra was paid off, but the credit union I refinanced the loan through doesn’t seem to be able to tell me either how to get a title from them or tell me who held the lien on the title. I haven’t had much time to track it down this week though.
Mira is doing well, despite our local vet’s reticence to really help with the treatment. I’ve started conversing with the specialist vet at the animal hospital in Dallas and calling our local vet whenever we need a prescription or a test. Mira finished up the “induction” phase of the treatment this week, which is good. There is now a lot less of a chance of harmful side effects. She is drinking a lot less water now. Hopefully her hair will start growing again.
Khuul is still in the hospital but is hoping to get out on Friday. He’s been there for almost a month now. He’s doing well, no more complications from the second surgery. Well enough that it’s driving him crazy to sit around in a hospital all day. I know I’d be going nuts. No word yet on when he will start his Chemo.
I’ve finished up my latest Masters course in Project Management. I’m not sure if I get to take a course this Spring. I only need 2 courses now, Digital Forensics and the Capstone. Digital Forensics isn’t offered this semester and, according to the graduate advisor I can’t take the capstone early. They also can’t tell me if Digital Forensics will be offered in the Summer either. I don’t think I want to wait A YEAR to finish.
