Re: Tell Us About Yourself!

Ok, here goes nothing:

I'm Jessica, I'm 26 years old and work as a paralegal in a law firm in Lansing, MI. I graduated from college almost 5 years ago (YIKES!!). I bought my first house almost a year ago (April 19) all by myself. It was a very uplifting experience to know that I could do it without anyone's help. This past July I decided to go back and get my Masters in Criminal Justice because I was (and am) beginning to hate my job. In December my grandmother got very ill and I had to take a break from school because it was too hard to juggle work, school, and be at the hospital all the time. Grandma (who I was VERY close with) finally let go 2 weeks ago Monday, after spending a long rollercoaster of a ride in the hospital. She so badly wanted to meet my Roscoe who I brought home mid-January (born 11-28-06). We will miss her dearly
Roscoe has been a rollercoaster ride himself!! Two days after we brought him home he was at the emergency vet because he had an allergic reaction to his food. I consulted BW and switched him to a high quality food and he has been fine since. Then he got kennel cough, had vomiting issues, and now a slight hear murmur. But we love him all the same!!! We also have a orange tiger cat name Pacino (Chino) that isnt really that fond of Roscoe, or at least he tries to act that way...how could you not love a boxer??!!
Dbf and I are looking at adopting a brother for Roscoe from the local boxer rescue. We have passed the initial interview and checks and are now waiting for them to come and do a home visit. We love the idea of having a playmate for Roscoe.
