christian74: I'll take your old laptop. 
I have a habit of people giving me old computers, I freshen them up and give them to people who need a basic computer to get online with.
In local news I had some bizarre dreams last night. In one of them I met a lynx. Well... half lynx, half house cat. He was living in an old factory. He let me pet him, but I didn't try picking him up.

Girl I know the feeling!! I'm turning 18 at the end of this month, and though, not much is going to change, I'm a little terrified, and very excited,...and then just not wanting it to happen at all. I get confused,..
We're pretty much in the same boat on this one. *Hugs* I hear most people survive it.

If I was Leo (and I'm not ), I would have also let her stay on the board and died knowing that I at least helped give her chance the best chance to live that I could... but I too felt that they should've shared the board.
John 15:13 KJV
"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."

So. I may kind of sort of need prayer at the moment because I am really, really spent and run down and generally worn out, all over.
Well, I've kind of been pushing myself at work to do everything for everyone and take up jobs that were not allocated to me in order to help others, but over a long period of time, I've finally come to my final straw and have burnt myself out. I've spent the past couple of mornings crying in my car before work, because the idea of getting through another day hurts my brain meats and I'm still struggling with telling people I can't do these extra jobs anymore.
And it's funny because for a long season, the Lord wanted me to learn what it means to solely rely on Him. It took awhile to break my pride, but I learnt to open up and cling to Him and trust. I happily came to a place where I was like, "God, it's just me an You, let's conquer the world!" Then God added, "Okay Arlene. Lesson 2: Loving others," and I responded with, "Okay, awesome, I'm up for it!" But it's not always easy and I realised I had to cling ever more so on to God to go through this intense learning season.
And now I'm learning what it means to rely on others and ask for help, and I can tell you right now, I would rather some other very uncomfortable situation than to ask for help. But I guess, relationships aren't just me actively loving others, but asking to lean on someone as well. So, I'm asking for prayers. I'm asking for help from my family, here, because I'm tired and worn out and have to learn to say, I don't always have it together. Prayers would be appreciated, greatly.
And there goes my pride....
I wish Pipp was here to bake me a cake. How does one woman master such awe inspiring cake baking skills?

Got back from the vet. Woooooo, Mocha was not a happy camper when the vet came in. Nobody could get the muzzle on him. Like....nobody. We tried. We really did. What the vet did was actually get some bandaging, he cut a nice long strip of it. He quickly wrapped it nice and tight around his snout and tied it behind his ears.
Anyways, they swabbed his ear, and he definitely has a pretty bad infection. They gave us an oral AND topical antibiotic. Dad turned down the topical because of how...interesting today went.
The good thing is, which might be an answer to prayer, is they said to go ahead and do the oral antibiotic. If within I think a week it doesn't let up, they have a new product they could try to put in his ear, and it'd be just a one-time thing. It's kind of a gel that combats not only the yeast but also the bacteria and I'll spare you the boring details. But the one thing that did make me slightly concerned, but I'm not overly concerned is, that since the infection is just in one part of the ear, they talked about it it keeps going like this they also might sedate him, and take a closer look into his ear to make sure something else isn't causing it like a tumor. Ugh, I hate that word.
