The debate is still looming over my grandsons head today as to weather or not he is actually going to walk in the graduation. but if he does i took the time to call the high school and someone there said there holding 4 tickets for his family. its now all up to him the event will take place sat if he so chooses.

so on another note. wild life in alaska set aside for the am. and now its pets LOL as a grandma i have had to take on some pets over the years. one that i will talk about today is a hamster i bought my grandson at christmas time. now i am usually not into anything that even remotely looks like a reptile or a rat. but this is something i chose to give him because he has had these before. and i got rather tired of" everyone has a pet but me" this is a white dwarf hamster. and he livesin the book case in his little world cage in our frontroom, because he was keeping my grandson up at night with his wheel and mike was throwing pillows at him so i removed him and was told if he leaves my bedroom he isnt coming back. no problem . mr hamster cant help his habits so i took him in the frontroom in the middle of the night and looked around " where the heck do i keep him?" i was thinking. can't leave him here the cats will get him so i quickly made space in the childrens book case for him that used to be a what the heck is it called ,oh well for lack of words one of those dinner plate huts with closeing glass doors on it and several drawers below those. my mom used to keep her collectables in it and so did i until i began to babysit the younger set of grandchildren then i turned it into a keep your books in here your project stuff, crayons and movies and the like. games you name it . well i redid it all and now mr hamseter lives above all their books in there.
ok we have a dog , cat, two gold fish and two birds and of course mr hamster .
this am i am on the phone long distance talking to my grandsons ma down south in the lower 48 and sitting in my bedroom when this what looked like a white mouse goes streaking across the floor along side my bed. across the room from me. ok normal female reaction jump up in a panic and scream. add to that i hung up the phone in the middle of the converstation. leaving my daughter to wonder in another state what the heck was going on. i run into hubbies bedroom in a panic and tell him " help me i need help come quickly!' he looks at me with this look of " please discribe help to me " and away we go as were going i tell him i am not sure but its either mr hamster or a white rat in my room. LOL we get in there and i am of course the first one in and i see him run across the floor the other way. hubby didnt so he goes out to ck his cage and sees he isnt there and tells me i think its mr hamster ,so we hunt for him around the bed. he says well he isnt here are you sure it was him. seems like it should because i dont see him in his cage i will have to look more through the saw dust in there. he turns to leave the room and there goes mr hamster under the desk. hubby finally gets him in hand and puts him away. all the while telling him him had one heck of an adventure. we have no clue how long he has been out or where he has been or even if the family cat chased him all night LOL most of this hamster hunt i spent standing on the bed or chair. geshhhhhhhhhhhhh life in grandmas petting zoo . LOL
of course there was last summer , when i got roped into taking care of the class bunny. oh what fun that was. we turned him loose one day in the frontroom so he could get out of his cage and get exerscse. our cockerspaniel decided it was time to make him run so here is the dog chasing the bunny around in circles. along comes our simeese cat . walking boldly into the frontroom the rabit saw her and away they went the bunny is chasing the cat and the dog is chasing the bunny LOL if only i had a camera handy that would have been a wonderful kodak moment to catch. oh well they spent the summer doing that one on a regular basis. this year i refused to take any anamals to babysit for the summer . even though my grand daughter called me up begging me " but grandma there doves. i will help out" noooooooooooo and i stuck to it. we got enough here to care for as it is her mas birds have three little bitty babies .as it is we will have to begin hand feeding soon.
i did get back to my daughter on the phone and of course she laughed her but off about the mr hamseter thing . and also the high school to find out more about graduation this sat and of course my grandson on what he wants to do . i will have to know soon so i can pay for the cap and gown . right now its up in the air. somehow i dont think with the broken hand thing he wants to walk. and i of course wont force him too . he said if he doesnt he will ck into one of those picture sudios and have his picture taken in cap and gown for the family. his auntie told me this am he isnt feeling very well has a tummy flue going along with the hand . maybe its the meds they are giving him . but he did say he is cking in to see what is oging on at the high school so i will know more later. next post i will tell you a story about a procippine:)
