I'm tired of cooking/preparing 3 meals a day. It's just the two of us but boy oh boy can that woman eat!! She stays slimish, I get fattish. It's bad enough I do everything here much less start making her one thing and me the other. At times I feel guilty when I buy her fast food cuz of the nutritional value....not to mention I eat it too.
Knock on wood, no rain in my area across the Potomac except for some occasional thunder this afternoon. Looks like Mother Nature will try again tomorrow and on Tuesday with thunder storms.
I miss the sun !!!
Oops, wait, that's not how that saying goes... never mind :)
I saw the heavy flooding in MD on the news, the speed of the water flow is frightening. I hope everyone stays safe.
It matters to you!
So sorry.
How do some people keep their jobs?
People who let their dogs run loose to crap big ol' stinky piles in other people's yards.
I caught the little bugger in the act and scared the he11 out of him, so I hope he never comes back. Then I had to clean up his nasty mess so my dog wouldn't think it was something interesting to roll in or eat (yes, he has that bad habit).
All my dogs found that a great treat to go down with the ground hogs they caught
Shoulda' given him a stink bomb on your way out!
Wish someone would invent a fold up disposal paper plate that an owner can carry and quickly slip under the dog so the dog can do his business on that plate when it opens up, and then the plastic bag will cover the plate.
At one time I had a good solution, had a torti cat that was very territorial. She would hide in the bushes, and if any dog dare to step foot on "her yard" she would get all puffed up, run down the yard sideways full speed. That would get the owner and dog to leave very quickly. It was interesting watching dog walkers make a wide avoidance of my house :))
Sorry Gershun, for ruining your meal! You know how our conversations go here - we get off on some odd ones sometimes. LOL
Took my little dog to a parade yesterday for the first - and probably last - time. He LOVES people and other dogs, but goes a little ballistic when he sees other dogs and starts that high-pitched squealing that small dogs do, increasing in intensity and volume until he can no longer see the other dog. He did that a couple of times yesterday, and everyone was staring at me like I must have been doing something to hurt him - that's what it sounds like when he does that. Soooo, no more parades for him, I'm afraid. If it were just barking, that'd be one thing, but this, "Oh my God, I'm dying" screaming he does is not something we can deal with in a public setting like that. I have to wonder if this is the "behavior issue" that led the former owner to return him to the shelter? I would never return him - he's with me to stay - but I can see some people being pretty annoyed by it. I'll just deal with it.
Ok, off and running for the day - have to get the van to the shop to see if I can get the A/C fixed soon. The cat transport on Sunday was fine on the trip up there, but awfully hot on the way back (fortunately it was just me and the dog at that point, and I could roll the windows down).
Have a good day everyone!
Oh Becky, I'm sorry your surgery is in the middle of the night!
Wow, that's the earliest I've ever heard of.
I too like being first on the list and usually found a 6am arrival meant the surgery did not start till 8am. They like all that time to do blood work and anything else they fancy.
No fun at all we will all be thinking of you and hope it helps. I am afraid some valve repair may be in my future too.
Check out the rehab if you can you don't want to be stuck in a stinking dump where their idea of rehab is to make you walk to the bathroom.
