This, That & The Other Thing

Well knock on wood I think we may have come to an agreement! (read my previous post, I don't feel like explaining again lol) All we have to do at this point is to get the papers signed and tada... but nothing is in stone yet so I won't give any details until that point comes... Fingers crossed this will continue in a positive direction.
Anyway, so I found out something rather disturbing, a woman was attacked on south side of the base (where we use to live!) in her home! I guess a guy broke into her home and tried to attack her but she fought him away! How scary!! Here is a link that gives very little details but confirms the rumors to be true, http://myfmradio.ca/1049/wire/news/01012_RAP_BASE_ATTACK1-web_064927.php  My thinking is that since so many of the soldiers have been deployed that these sick men think the women are easy targets! I sure hope the military police step up their search and find this person... and send more cars out for constant patrols and keep up those patrols until the troops are home! My husband and I have already talked about the safety measures we will be taking for whenever he leaves (still no idea, could be any day between now and dec), but I'm not about to give away our plan on the internet! I just can't imagine what that poor girl's husband must be thinking! He is on the other side of the world serving his country and his wife gets attacked in their home... as if military families don't have it hard enough as it is. Well the good news is that she did fight him off! and she is ok!!!
If you look back at my previous posts in regards to the Purina Maxx Scoop, you'll see some pictures on my cats. The big fat one, Jack, isn't doing so well right now, he seems to have gone from aging slowly to an old man over night! It just seems as though a couple of weeks ago he was the same old Jack, and now all of a sudden he is just that, old. He is breathing very heavy at times, no he is not suffering and gasping for air! His fur use to feel like a rabbits and looked beautiful but now it isn't looking so good or feeling that good either. Part of me is wondering if he has had a little stroke or something, I don't know, something is just very off. I have no idea what is going to happen, hopefully he still has some good years left in him as an old man.
