the things going on

we got everything packed in the horse trailer and the back of dad (smith's) truck. i am quite surprised it actually all fit. where and how did we accumulate so much stuff? oh well. zach & i found a place to live down here in la verkin. it is actually a place that zach's uncle owns and rents out. it is a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom, washer & dryer place. it will be nice not to have to haul the laundry to the laundromat. we have been living with mom & dad (smith) for the last 2 weeks. and on monday we will be moving just up the road from them. i think i might go over today and clean up the place to amber standards. i don't think it has been lived in for a bit. when we turned on the water in the shower, it came out brown for a few seconds. don't get me wrong, the place was cleaned after vacancy, but i just feel better about cleaning it myself and knowing that i was the last one to clean.
zach is working today. he had a conference call this morning and then went to meet his boss over at the hotel. his boss lives up in slc i think. he just came down to take zach around to the different stores he will be working at and introductions and the such. so i am just hanging out doing laundry and taking care of rei rei.
she got a bacterial skin infection. it was about a month ago that we first noticed it, but we didn't know a vet or have the money for a vet. well we got our tax return, and when her sores spread all down her one side and her leg & ears, zach took her to a vet he knows down here. she is on a broad spectrum antibiotic. if it still isn't better by tuesday, we take her back to the vet. hopefully she will get better. she put herself to bed and won't come out unless we make her. usually its just to potty and eat a little bit. i think i will try and take her for a walk later today. just to keep her moving. the first pill we gave her made her throw up. after the second one, we walked her around a little and she did much better. i think she just needs rest and the antibiotics will do the rest. well, i am going to go to walmart with mom (smith) now so i'll leave this blog here and tell about our family vacation on the next one.
