I talked to Esther the other day, and she wanted an update on our Moses. I still need to send you the shipping money, by the way, Esther.
Moses has lost 6 lbs on the Rafaleah Diet! We fed him less, gave him treats in the morning and at night, and a snack. He weighs 12 pounds now, and he's literally half the cat he was when he moved here! But he is healthy, and happy, purry and soft.
We took him to the vet last Friday because he kept scratching his ears. It turns out he had a bacterial infection in his ear, and they gave us ear drops to put in his ear. The catch is they need to be refrigerated. OOOhh! He HATES that! I have to put 8-10 drops per ear twice a day, and he always puts his ears back, sighs and tries to run.
I want to take a picture of him and put it up so you can all see the new, slender Moses! He did it and so can you! :)

Organizational Whore
Yeah, that's me!
I went on one of my fits of clean, and I put up some shelves in my dining room. I put extra food, tupperware, crock pots, and my glass pitchers on it. It is awesome! Now I have room in my kitchen to cook, and a place for everything.
When I do get a house, you can bet there will be shelves in every room, to keep things up where you can see them, and use them. I love it!
I took down the tree too. I forgot to take a picture for the blog! :> Rats! I will do that next year. It wasn't much different than last year's tree.
So, I heard Super Bowl is coming to AZ in 2 weeks. Is dad still going to rent out the house for out of towners? May be kinda hard with the menagerie of animals over there. Well, good luck with the traffic! I stay away from downtown San Antonio when the Spurs have their playoffs. It's a mess!
Things here are good and quiet. I'm still on a quest to complete my spring cleaning without taking any time off work. I did a good job this weekend, and I may just be able to finish before spring. I can say, that I do love that laptop! I can get Raffy to the other room, so I can clean and organize without us bothering each other! I love it!
Plus Raffy and I have been playing our online game together. That's alot of fun when you can team up, and Raffy's a much higher level than I am.
Well, Keep it Real you all! See you next week!

Goodbye Holidays, Hello Sunshine!
I hate the holidays now. Rafaleah has made a decision. Until we have kids, we're not going to do the whole Christmas present thing. This year, we just had a blast, no worries, no gifts. I put our tree up, because I like that tradition, and we bought a new ornament, but that was it.
Yeah, I saw the petite tree at the R- Clan's house. You know, I was the one who put the tree up every year, whether you all noticed or not, since I was about 14. I used to brave the rooftop and put outdoor lights, sometimes nearly slipping to my death over the massive garage! It was worth it to spend my final Christmases at home. I'm not surprised, because you all either can't go up to the attic, or shouldn't.
So we had a good Christmas. I didn't go to see anyone over here. I sent Raffy to go see his family, because I didn't feel like going anywhere. I told him they were welcome to come to our place if they wanted, but I was tired, and I wanted a day in my home with peace and quiet. And he went! :) I stayed home, and played my online game all day. I accomplished alot! And I spent much time with Moses, and ate my Christmas orange and candy. I was so tired, I didn't feel like blogging about it.
Then New Years came, and I decided I would make eggrolls for Raffy. We used a pot filled with some peanut oil, and I made them on the stove. I spent New Years Day relaxing, and we bought a wedding present for Raf's friend Phillip. He married his sweetheart he met when he worked at SeaWorld back in '01 last Saturday.
The day after New Years', I went to work feeling fine, but by 2:00 I was about to pass out! I was very, very ill, and Raffy had to come get me and drive me home. I stayed home the next day, and could only choke down water and Ramen until I got better. I was fit and ready for Phillip's wedding last weekend.
Never wear red to a Catholic wedding. I bought a beautiful red dress from Ross to wear, because the only thing I had that fit me was a black and white dress. I didn't want to wear black to a wedding. I wanted to be joyous, and happy looking. Well, we get there and half the women are wearing some form of black, and giving me the "eye." Even the priest gave me a look. I wanted to say, "Hey! I'm a guest, not Satan!" It didn't help that I was wearing ruby jewlery!
Raffy and I went home for the 2 hours between the ceremony and the reception. We relaxed, and then we went to the Radisson hotel where the reception was. Keep in mind, this is the same place I had the asthma attack at a couple weeks ago. I loaded up on allergy meds, and I brought my Epi-pen. But when we got there, they had thrown away all the plants that died, and only a few were scattered around. Because I had my medicine, I was fine!
We met with many of Raffy's school friends, the "gang." They are all very nice and funny people, just like Raffy. We all hung out, laughing, joking and had a great time. There was a couple there from Colorado, Joe and Katie. They kept mentioning that they were going to be in town until Tuesday, and wanted to hang out. I told Raffy to give them our number, and tell them to call us to go out on Monday.
The wedding was pretty, and the bride and groom were very cute together. I want to give a shout out to Phillip and his lovely bride Suzie. I hope you both have a long and happy life together, and we'll see you for Wii day! BYOC! :D
Anyway, we went out with Joe and Katie to Dave & Busters last Monday. We had a GREAT time! I wish we had more friends like them. Joe is very intelligent and Katie is a fun person! Raffy and I were glad to see them, and they are coming back next July because another couple in the "gang" is getting married. I can't wait, because they are fun! We had dinner, played games, and hung out.
So that's why I haven't blogged. I was out having fun. With real people! :D There is hope for me!
Tonight we bought a laptop for Raffy to take to college. (He spells it Kollig.) I picked it out! We went to Office Max and got a great deal on a Toshiba 17" notebook. I just finished the rebate papers, and we're doing great financially. We are on the upswing. I know it was a bummer not getting a present from me, but it really helped us to get our goals accomplished, so thank you for not getting a present! :) You can do the same to me, because I know how hard it is to survive. I know you all love me, and it's all good!
Happy Birthday Sara! Hope all is well, and you are happy and healthy and doing great!
Love, Leah and Raffy!
