Mid Week Craziness!!

Hey guys!!
So nothing overly exciting has happened this week, but I got some more good news about Australia my scholarship was FINALLY approved meaning I only have another 1,500 to pay!! Whoohoo!! who can beat a 3 week trip to Australia for $2,000!!! And I applied for my passport today, which might I add was a very obnoxious project, but it is done and not only did i get my passport I also go my passport card.
Education time: for those of you who don't know the difference, passports are currently running $110 and you have to have those if you are planing on flying to another country. Passport cards are running roughly $30 and are more convenient for those of you who are just wanting to drive across the boarder to Canada or Mexico, SOOO for those of you planing on visiting us in New York I would recommend getting a passport card especially if you're going to drive and want to see Niagra falls from the Canada side!!

Anyways: So this little man is feelin in the dumps lately :( he went to the vet 2 weeks ago for his heart- gaurd test, and they told me it was possible he had allergies but today we had to go back for more shots (lepto and lyme disease) so I had the actual vet take a look at his eyes again and it turns out he might have curled in eye lids, causing his eye lashes to rub on his eyes. This could be because of allergies still but it could also be something he was born with which will require pinning surgery to make his eyes normal again :( He is on a series of medications for the next couple months just to see if it is allergies, 2 forms of a tear stain remover and benedryl twice a day which results in this ... poor sleepy puppy :(

So back to my weight loss/in shape goal for when Cory comes home, this week I have lost 2 pounds and kept it off all week! Not much but it is a start whoohoo!! And accomplished a personal best of 4 miles on a tread mill in 43 minutes!!! And am SERIOUSLY considering signing up for a half marathon with Emily this September!! I mean I am doing what many find impossible and spending a year without my husband while he is in another country the least I can do is run 13.1 miles in honor of him!! Sooo input should i do it?!?!
With that being said I leave you with these pictures for excitement!!
