Getting Ready

April went by so quickly!  May is here and I wasn't ready yet. ;)
Well, we are starting to get ready to move at the beginning of June.  It seemed like this distant thing that would happen later but now it is upon us.  So, John is getting all of the paperwork and signatures done.  I've been trying to catch up with laundry and dishes and figure out what things we'll need to take with us in the car and what we'll need to get rid of before the movers come to pack everything up.  It will only be about a 9 hour drive this time instead of a few days, so that will be good.  Though this trip will be made with 2 kitties in the car with us instead of just one. o.o  I'm not sure how that will go.  I will discuss it with our vet and see if they will need any drugs for the journey.  I might need some, myself. xD Just kidding.
For some reason we have not been able to beat this Upper Respiratory Disease for the cats.  The sneezing has kept coming back and coming back.  So they are on medicine again.  Patches has to be on some strong antibiotics because she needs to be sneeze free for 10 days before she is spayed.  We've had to postpone the appointment a few times.  x.x  It is stressing me out because she is getting older and older.  But, we should be able to get it taken care of on May 17th.
I ended up needing a root canal on the last tooth that needed a filling.  Not what you want to hear when you think you won't have to be back at the dentist for 6 months. Haha.  So we set up the appointment and had it done.  However, this tooth rests against one of my sinuses and apparently the sinus got punctured during the root canal.  The day after the procedure I suddenly had constant draining for 3 hours straight from the left nostril (the root canal was on my furthest back upper right tooth).  It freaked me out.  So we went back in to the dentist and he said he thinks the sinus has been punctured and there was some bleeding in the sinus and my body is doing its best to heal.  So, I will need to make sure I put heat on it and take antibiotics.  My teeth hurt, my sinuses hurt a LOT.  I feel stressed out because I need to get ready to move. :(  And the money I was saving to help us move is slowly being eaten away at by vet and dentist bills.  But, it will be okay.  Right now all I want is for my face to stop feeling like it's buzzing.  The dentist said as the sinus heals it will stop buzzing and the pressure and pain will fade.
The kitties have been getting closer and closer to each other.  And they have been adorably monitoring me.  They have been sleeping by me and sniffing my face periodically to make sure I'm okay.  It's really cute.  They have become such loving little sugar bears.
We're excited to see what Fort Campbell will be like for us.  There's just a lot to do in the meantime! o.o  We'll keep you posted. ;)
