So I Did end up taking the weekend off mostly, even though I didn’t really plan it! Friday is a blur, (always..lol) Then on Saturday we went to the flea marker with my mom and dad. They tricked me though I swear! I thought we were going to the flea market in the mountains, and we ended up at the one a few minutes down the road and I was really disappointed. In 25 years of living here I have only got one thing at that flea market and that was Shadow, and I wasn’t even there when David got him!
Afterwards we went out to lunch at KFC and then when we got home I told David I was going to nap for a little while, since he was going to take his dad to the animal shelter to get a dog or whatever.
I was drifting off when David called and told me that Marley was at the animal shelter.
Our neighbors that had lived behind us forever, had a little black dog named marley, and she LOVED me and David. She spent most of the day over here laying in our doorway. She would go nuts anytime we were around. Anyways, David always liked her and he had said many times he wished he could buy her from them. Well, They suddenly left /got kicked out and we were pretty bummed about her not being around anymore.
So LO and BEHOLD he walks in there to the shelter and there she is! and he was having a fit. Because he asked the girl about her, what her name was and where she came from and the gal told him her name was marley and she was an owner surrender from about 3 weeks or so ago, because they got kicked out of their apartment! Then when she saw david she was having a happy fit!
So I will leave it up to you to connect the dots, but we are getting a dog *sigh* I am not like the most happy person about it, i mean it is a cute story and she is a o.k. dog. I just am NOT a dog person, plus with sam ..yeah that isn’t going to be pretty!!! We don’t get her till friday so at least david will be here to be able to help with her for a few days before feeding me to the wolves I guess.
Most of you all know I have court tomorrow.I was doing pretty o.k. with it and then last night I totally freaked out. This morning I actually called my lawyer and they were like do you want to leave her a voicemail and I was like well honestly I am going to court tomorrow and I am having a bit of a panic attack about it. (Because She NEVER calls me back if I do leave a voicemail) Anyways, she actually got on the phone with me and told me that it would be a continuance again. I am a bit confused because I SWEAR on all that is holy she totally told me and david a different story back in May when I went. She was telling me they were running out of continuances and time with my evidence and such. Now she doesn’t act like she ever told me that!
I am not really happy about it because that means i get to go through all of this all over again some time in the next little bit. My court dates tend to be about 5 months apart, but they were about a month or so apart back when this first started. Let me put it to you this way I am probably gonna turn 30 and be dealing with stuff from being 28. It is annoying and getting on my last nerves. I want to plead guilty and be done, but apparently I am the only one who thinks that is a good idea! I also think the evidence might come back not so in my favor and I think it should honestly be about time for it to be back and..yeah that is why I was ready to plead guilty last time and she was like NO NO, you should wait because they are running out of continuances and la la la. OY!
I really hope they don’t start me going back every month or so because it is SO annoying and it is hard on David to get off work. Sure I could just walk up there but it is nice to have someone with me through these things.
I am even more upset because I was hoping the money we had saved could be used for a major grocery haul and maybe even go on a trip some where. Now, it doesn’t look like that will be happening!
SO i get to yet again for the 5th time be inconvenienced and sit there for about 30-45 minutes until she comes in, talks to the DA and calls me into the hallway to tell me when to be back and do it all over again. What joyus fun! I mean it helps that I call and I know and there shouldn’t be any surprises like ooh they got evidence back and la la la but you know? even if they did most everything that would happen has already been done and I would just have to do community service and pay a lot of money. Of course in the head of a worry wort it is like wildfire and I have all kindsa crazy scenarios! David said he is going to go ahead and just go back to work afterwards. I have spent most of today napping and plan to be cuddled up in bed watching tv and drinking cider really early tonight.
Here is hoping I can jump back into everything come tomorrow!
