My Poor Dog!

So I'm sitting at the computer listening to music and various other things, when I look at my dog Amy (whom is under the piano). All of the sudden she kinda slapped the ground and acted like she was attacking a bug, I get up and go over to her.


All of the sudden, she goes crazy! She stiffens, and starts shaking all over. "Luke!! Come quick! Somethings wrong with Amy!" I call Luke in from the living room, and he comes running over to Amy. She turns over and keeps shaking. And she's drooling and stuff.

I go get mom from her room, and Amy finally stops shaking, but keeps drooling (just a little bit here and there) and shaking. Luke holds her in his lap and we both pet her. I told mom what happened, and she called the vet. Amy was having a seizure :(

She's doing a lot better and is now laying in her bed, and about every 4 seconds, I look over to check on her. We're gonna keep a look out on her, and if she does anything else weird, we are gonna take her to the vet. That picture at the top is her right now.


Bloggin out,


P.S. I'm working on another post about youth convention, Thanksgiving, and so on. Or maybe I'll only do one post for each instead of both on one... I don't know. Anyways, I'll post as soon as possible.

Video of Ranger and Amy

I took this video yesterday. Ranger and Amy were looking for some kind of animal that must have been around and left a lot of it's scent around!! FYI, I posted a couple of hours ago, so be sure to check that post out, and leave comments! Anyways, here's the video:

Fishing/Voice Lessons

Hey guys!!

So this afternoon, my brother and I (Adam) took our boat out on the lake and went fishing! I have only fished once maybe twice in a boat before. We brought Amy along with us, and Ranger was on the shore the whole time whining. We sat out there for a while without any luck, when Adam finally caught a crappie (kind of fish)! He usually catches a lot of fish, he's a great fisherman. Adam put the fish in the fish net that was tied to the boat, and threw it in. put it went in sideways, and the door thingy came open, and the fish got out :( But luckily I snapped this picture before it happened:









Just a few minutes later, Adam caught another crappie! Here is a pic of Adam and that fish:









We made sure that we put the basket in the water right, and so it didn't get away.

I was kind of bummed that I hadn't caught anything, when I got a big tug on the line. I yelled, "I got one!!" I quickly reeled the line in, and pulled the big crappie up and into the boat. Adam got it off the hook, and handed it to me. He took this picture of me and the fish:

After Adam took the picture, I put the fish in the fish net with Adam's fish, and gently set it in the water.

A little while later, I got another big tug on the line! I was like, "I got another one!!" I quickly reeled the line in and then took the fish off the hook. The fish was another crappie, but it was smaller than the other one I had caught, and the ones that Adam had caught. I set down the fish, while I was doing something, but I didn't want him to not be able to breath for that long, so I took him by the mouth, and set him in the water for a second while I was holding him. But, unfortunately he got away :( But luckily I got a picture of him before he got away :)









We fished for a few minutes longer (didn't catch anything) before I had to go to voice lessons. So we paddled back to the shore, and pulled the boat ashore. I ran up to the house, changed clothes, brushed my teeth, and ran downstairs, and into the van. I brushed my hair on the way.

I finished the song 'Own My Own' from Les Miserables. It's a really pretty song! I really like it. The first time I sung it today, I didn't sing it very good, but when I had a drink of water I did a lot better. I thought I did it really good.

The song I'm singing this week is called Unexpected Song from Song and Dance. It's really pretty too. The first two pages (it's 5 pages long) I'm good at, but on the third page, on one part it goes down to the G below middle C, and I can't exactly do that.. Then it changes keys, and is higher, and I'm fairly good at that. I need to practice it, then I'll get it better.

Well, it's midnight, so I guess I better go :P I will post more soon (I got quite a bit to post about). Here are some more pictures from fishing:

Bloggin out,

IDK what to title this post

Last night, Amy (see picture below) one of our dogs, got sprayed by a skunk! I could smell it from upstairs, and since my window was open, I figured it was coming from outside. Mom called me from downstairs saying something was wrong with Amy or something like that. So I went down, and Amy had been rubbing all over the carpet, and her bed. I was like, "well DUH! Can you smell the stink? She must have gotten sprayed by a skunk, and is trying to get the stink off her!!"









I gave her a bath today, but she doesn't stink any less :( It smells worse than the time several years ago, when I brought a skunk in the house saying, "MOM! Look what I found!!" those memories crack me up!!

Today, one of my mom's piano students, brought their little adorable 9 week old white-with-black-patches Shih-tzu puppy named Lily (the same name as my rabbit!). She is SOO CUTE! Below are the only pictures I could get of her, because she was running around like crazy.

I have a video on my camera of her running around outside with Ranger and Amy, but this dang computer won't let me put the video on the computer, and I don't know why!! :( Maybe it will work later, and if it does, I'll post it then.

That's about it, so.. NO! Wait:

Yesterday, I finally got my 'Matter of Trust' and 'Not Without Courage' books in! OK, I know you have no idea what I'm talking about. Ya see: Sometime last year I think, when Mitch came and visited me, she brought along a book by the name of 'Word of Honor'. The book was the first book in the 'Shawdow Creek Chroincles'. I read most of it when she was here, and I loved it! I didn't have time to finish it, but when I visited her house in August, I did finish it. The following book is titled 'Matter of Trust', then 'Not Without Courage', and the last one is 'Strength and Glory'.

Mitch didn't have any of the other books, and we were dying to find out what happened. About a week or two ago, Mitch ordered the book 'Matter of Trust'. Not to long after that, I orderd 'Matter of Trust' 'Word of Honor' (since I didn't own it, although I have read it) and 'Not Without Courage'. I would have bought the last one, but It was $8, and I didn't want to spend anymore $$. I will buy it after I read the other books.

Mitch waited until I got my books before she started reading 'Matter of Trust'. When I got my book, I called Mitch and said really quickly, "GUESS WHAT? GUESS WHAT? GUESS WHAT!??!"
And she's like, "You got your book in!?
And I'm like, "YESS!!!!!!" or something like that.
So I went inside, and picked up my book (still on the phone with Mitch). We decided to take turns reading. I read one sentece, then Mitch read the next. Then I read the next sentence, then Mitch would read the one after that. And it continued on till my bedtime, and we had read 3 chapters! It took a while... LOL!

Last night, I read three more LOOONG chapters (staying up till1 something AM). Right now, I am Instant Messaging (IMing) Mitch right now, and she's catching up on reading. She is somwhere in chapter 5, which is a LONG chapter. Here's a sideways pic of the book:










And one of the pages, lol











Bloggin out,


P.S. I will post what the book is about in another post. No. Wait. I'll post it on my writing blog eventually. Maybe now. IDK
