So to update you I have a few things. Skylee won a goldfish at the grape festival a few weeks ago, her name is Sookie. Leave it up to my child to have a vampire fetish and name her fish after a Charlaine Harris' character.
We also have a new cat, her name is Flower. She was a stray kitten that befriended Skylee and is super sweet. I took her to the vet and after $100 they de-wormed her, gave her a flea treatment, shots, and declared her a healthy 4 month old cat. She spends her days inside letting Skylee cart her around, and has even taken to playing with Bruno.
It took a little bit before she wasn' afraid of him, but they are great friends now. They even play with the same toy at the same time. She is an amazing mouser, which is coming in handy with the empty field behind our home.

Skylee has started preschool and is loving it. She has a few friends in the class, including her little boyfriend Austin who is so cute and tall like she is. It is kind of funny to see the two of them tower over all the kids in class. She brings home the cutest art work and is really enjoying learning to write, something that she basically has refused to do here at home. She goes two days a week, Tuesday and Thursday and next year starts Kindergarten. I am hoping to get her into the Benton County School of Arts next year, but it is based on a lottery system so we will see.

I think being left handed is making it a little difficult but still not bad.
Yesterday we went to the zoo with our good friend Paula and her two boys Levi and Abe. We had a super good time and it started to rain just as we were leaving. I think Skylee's fave part is the petting zoo, and any kind of animal enclosure that allows her to get very close. The Jaguar has a thick piece of glass that seperates you from it and that is it! We had a nice picnic as soon as we got there and let me tel you Paula makes a mean Chicken salad sandwich.
About me, well my Dr. diagnosed me as ADHD and I started my prescription today, so we will see how that goes. I am really hoping to get better with my memory, finishing projects, less procrastination, and having a better time at work with it. Honestly I hate the random crap that seems to come out of my mouth sometimes and I don't want to be perceived as a weird person or anything. I love my Blackberry and it is the only thing that helps me remember where and when I am supposed to be sometimes. I hate the fact that I feel stupid and upset when it comes to my job. So if this makes me better than I will be happy. And all my friends out there let me know if it is a good change or a bad one. I can only guess if this had been diagnosed earlier where I would be now. Who knows once Skylee goes to kindergarten I can go back to school.
Alrighty that is it for now, it's time to wash this gunk out of my hair!!
Skylee's friend Liam. We have made some amazing friends thru our playgroup.

Honestly, I'd never have imagined you had ADHD. I've never noticed a problem. As for weird crap coming out of your mouth... I just assumed you were like me - you know, completely normal :)
Skylee is getting so big. Wish you guys could come for a visit before winter hits - once we get a good snow there'll be no getting your California ass up here.
