I have had a bad bad bad bad bad bad week!!!!! If you read my last entry you know I was sick on tuesday (you can read about how that ruined my day in the entry below this one) , and have spent the whole week trying to recover from it. On friday when I still felt terrible, I discovered that one of my parakeets Lily, was laying an egg. Well long story short the egg was stuck and she was in a lot of pain. So we took her to the vet and they came up with an estimate of almost $600 dollars to do what needed to be done. Of course we don't have that kind of money to spend on a bird, since she was gonna die (and be in a lot of pain until she did) if we didn't do anything we were forced to ask how much it was to put her down. The vet came out and gave us an estimate for how much it would cost to do the "surgery" without putting her to sleep while they got the egg out and such. It was gonna be about $250. I agreed to pay half of it by using the $135 dollars I had saved up to celebrate my birthday. So they did the surgery and she was fine.
When I got home from church today my mom told me that when they uncovered her crate this morning she was dead. So now I spent $135 on a bird that died, and I'm left with one sad and lonely parakeet Geoffry, who spent the whole time that Lilly was sick in the crate next to him singing to her through the bars to keep her company. My mom said he was singing to her when they found her this morning.
One good thing about today is I got to have my birthday cake and ice cream. But I'm broke for the next who knows how long cuz I couldn't babysit at all this week, and I don't have any babysitting jobs this week. Today is the first day since tuesday that I can eat without feeling extremely sick afterwards, thats really nice. Alot more bad stuff happened over the week but I can't remember most of it. I guess thats a good thing...So anywho now that I've brightened your day with my oh so happy week, Ciao!
Aww, Dew, I am sooo sorry! That was a terrible terrible week. How sad!
And that stinks about the money! Maybe you can find some odd jobs or bake stuff for people. i am so sorry.
Wowow! You always have the coolest headers! So awesome! How do you get the picture to show up at the top like that!?
And is that you in your avatar? I mean, that is excellent photography!
And yes, I did write that poem. I was very afraid about something right then and it was the expression of the fear I was feeling.=]

Hey, I found your blog through Free2bme's blog. That's so sad about your bird. I know it's hard losing a pet. Do you plan on getting another one to keep Geoffrey company? I think Belle would be a cute name for a bird. Ü
