Well, I have been trying to keep myself busy with anything but homework the last few days. Now, I realize I maybe shouldn’t have done that..those deadlines are looming and kind of scaring me. Oh, well…I started my first project today. Well at least researching it. I have to write a 2 page paper on a recent corporate scandal and point out what supervisory issues there were and how if they had done the managerial side of things right, there would have been no scandal. So I was really trying to think of something that everyone else wasn’t going to write about. I feel for my teacher because I am sure she will have quite a few papers on the most recent Toyota scandal. sSo, I Googled “Coporrate Scandal” and Wikipedia came up with a link saying “A List of Coporate Scandals” and I thought OMG! This what I need. So I went looking through some of them and picked the first one. It is about HP and how they illegally obtained people’s personal information backin 2006, which is apparently recent. I thought it was because they were still getting charges brought against them through Augus t of 2009. Anyways, I think I have bored you enough with my homework. I have been helping my blind friend clean up her house. She can’t do it by herself because she is in kidney failure and is doing Dialysis 3 times a week and doesn’t always feel 100%. So, I have just really been trying to be there for her when she needs someone. So, I helped her clean her bathroom on Thursday and rearrange a bedroom and clean it out on Friday. It feels good to help someone I care about. Not to mention Leah loves to play with Tessie. Tessie is Jessica’s (my friend) dog from GDB. Tessie is a almost 5 year old yellow female lab. She is the second best friend of Leah’s of course to Dutchess mom’s weenie dog. lol. So they got to play together and Jessica’s son Trenton loves to play with Leah because all though she is constantly sick with an ear infection she is usually up for playing. So Taylor got to babysit while Jessica and I moved stuff around. Well, it was nice to have the sightling around. The sightling is Jason Jessica’s husband. He also made it easier to move alot of that heavier stuff since Jess couldn’t pick up on it. Speaking on the topic of Leah. I took her back into the vet on Wednesday and it was another ear infection. So he put some more medicine in it and told us to come back in two more weeks. Well, I had him contact Guide Dogs for the Blind, the School that Leah came from, I wanted him to chat with Dr. Patty in the Oregon vet clinic to see what she thought we could about all these ear infections. Well the general concensus was a dog food swap. So, now we are trying Purina Pro Plan Salmon & Rice formula. If this doesn’t work then we are going to have the full blown allergy test to find everything she is allergic to and most likely go to allergy shots. I really hope that doesn’t happen. I feel so bad for my pup because she has good days and bad days with her ears and sometimes I feel like it just gets her down. Well, I think I’ve said enoough tonight. Sorry if I bored you.
Amanda Ellen and Leah “The Princess” who is having a semi-good day!
