Not such a great day

I usually am a pretty positive person...and most days are good days....well today is still a good day....the sun is out....and looking forward to a afternoon walk in the park with Dylan...I am sure the day will just keep getting better...but it so far has started out on shaky ground.....I received a call this morning from Collin...he was letting me know that our good friends little girl might have whooping cough....this is awful for them...and kind of bad for us....since we spent time with their family a couple of nights ago....I immediately googled whooping cough....it turns out it is highly contagious and is extremely dangerous for infants under 6 months....75% of all infants under 6 months are hospitalized........not the news I really wanted to hear this morning.....well their daughter is getting tested for whooping cough...Dylan goes in for his 4 month old appointment so we will be asking lots of questions and possibly getting tested for whooping cough.....as Iam researching whooping cough...I hear this awful noise coming from the front of our house....its a unmistakable noise of a cat fight getting ready to start....I make it out in time to somewhat stop the worse of it....Mr Mooks is just now getting over the last cat fight....which cost us almost $200.00 in vet bills....I did though get a good look at the cat and was able to throw rocks at it to scare it away....it is actually our neighbors cat down the street....we really don't want to say anything....but her cat is kind of a bully....Mr Mooks doesn't leave his yard....and this cat comes into our yard and starts the fights in our yard....every fight has been in our yard....so with that we are going to let her know...its kind of unfortunate because she will have to keep her cat inside....but Mr Mooks shouldn't have to be bullied in his own yard....well with that I am done complaining...and can hopefully move on to at least a good day

While on a walk with Nancy I paused and said a prayer for Dylan.
