For those new to the blog, my follow-up Friday provides me with an opportunity to update or revise a post from the previous week. 

You know sometimes you post about something and you need an update but it doesn’t warrant a whole blog.  Or sometimes someone made a comment that really resonated with you.  Yup, Follow-Up Friday baby!

Things I Learned In 2011 – Update

As I was surfing along today reading all of my favorite blogs I was reminded of something else I learned in 2011. 

Right clicking on a link.

When I first started blogging and began linking to other posts, I set the links up to open in a new window.  I did that because I personally don’t care to click on a link and be taken to another website, I prefer to have the new site open in a new window.

But not everyone is me.

I found out that when I go to a link, instead of using the left button on my mouse, if I use the right I get the option of opening the referencing site in a new window or tab. 

I’m pretty sure all of you know this, but I needed to share. 🙂

Death By Chocolate – Update

New Year’s day is traditionally a day I set aside to clean up the mess of Christmas and get my house back to a semblance of normalcy.  It was unseasonably warm for the first day of January and after an hour’s walk I was very warm.  I came home and slipped into shorts and flip flops.

Even after an hour’s walk Delilah still had trouble in her system.  While I was taking care of some laundry Delilah decided to go into the sink and remove a dirty plastic container that was soaking.  She took it from the kitchen and moved it into the living room where most of her destruction usually takes place.  In the process she dumped a bunch of water on the kitchen floor. 

Meanwhile, I’m blissfully unaware of what has transpired in my 30 second absence, so I flip flop into the kitchen.

I’m not sure how your kitchen floor is, but on my kitchen floor water + flip flops = FAIL. 

It. Does. Not. Work. 

I slipped and almost fell and thought, “This dog will be the death of me.”

Incidentally she also ate the what remained of a stick of butter and I caught her with a second stick, that I had to throw out.  At that point I was extremely frustrated with her and I did something really bad.  I tapped her on the top of her nose and said, “NO!”  🙁

Foster Homes Needed – Author’s Note

 

I’m really glad I found that post on Blog Paws.  Two of my readers are in the Alexandria, Virginia area!  Kim from Life at Golden Pines was thinking of calling and possibly taking a foster, and Pup Fan said she would talk to her husband about it, but regardless of what he said she would post about it as she has lots of readers in the area!

I’m hoping the shelter found temporary homes for those waiting for their forever homes.

That’s it from me, so how was your week?
