Stinky and Needy

May 6, 2013 By Jodi

After I left the house for work I thought, oh crap the garbage is full (and stinky) and I forgot to put the chair in front of the cabinet.  She’s going to go in the garbage.

Oddly Hubby and I arrived home at the same time, let me go in first I said, I’m pretty sure she’s been in the garbage.

There was stuff all over the living room floor alright, but it wasn’t from the garbage.  She’d found a box of Bisquick and eaten what was left of the contents.  Best guess?  2 cups of Bisquick.

I called the vet (I swear, they must cringe when the caller ID shows my name) they didn’t seem to think it was anything to worry about but she might have a little gastro distress.

Well that was an understatement.

The smell in the car on the way to our walk was disgusting.  Something smells like shit Hubby said.

Another understatement.  I wish she’d gotten into the syrup maybe then it would have smelled like pancakes.

On our walk she was eating grass, good she’ll puke and the smell will go away.

She didn’t.  It didn’t.

Bedtime rolls around.

About 12:30 I feel this thump on the mattress next to my body, blearily I open my eyes and see Sampson staring at me,  I stumble to the door and both dogs go outside.

I wait five minutes and check on them, here comes Delilah but Sampson is just lying on the deck. I coax him in and we go back to bed.

Three more times I’m awakened by Sampson thumping his head on the mattress. I finally thought maybe he’s hot, I got up and opened the bedroom door, crawled back into bed.  Delilah growls as my foot slides past her.

At 2:30 the thump comes again.  I’m tired and I’m pissed.  I grab my pillow and a blanket and head out to the living room.  I notice there’s no water in the dog’s bowl so I fill it up.  Sampson takes a drink.

I throw my blanket down on the floor and turn to grab the pillow and Sampson lies on the blanket.  I grab another blanket, wrap myself in it and lay down next to him.   With one hand under his head and one on his belly we finally fall asleep.

About 4:30 he gets up and goes to lay on the couch.  I grab my pillow and head back to bed only to find my spot taken by Stinky.  I coax her a bit and she stretches out, head facing the foot of the bed.  I slide in and she growls again.

Whatever, I’m dead tired and I need some sleep.I close my eyes and feel a pulse against my leg, then another and another, what’s that my sleep deprived mind asks?

And then I smell it.

I open my eyes and realize her ass is about a foot and a half from my face. I think, Cripes, she’s farting against my leg and I’m breathing in her ass gas.  I’m probably burning my lungs out.

I grab my pillow and back to the living room and curl up on the couch.

Which is where Hubby found me when he got up at 6:00 am.

Co-Hosted Follow-Up Friday – May 3, 2013

May 3, 2013 By Jodi

Welcome to the latest edition of co-hosted Follow-up Friday.

 

https://www.heartlikeadog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/follow-up-friday.jpg

Once again, I have a new co-hostess.  Should you pop over to her blog at any given point in time you’ll see a story or a photo of Louise, Sofie Bear, Nine, Noel or Baby Stella.  They could be taking a trip to the docks or watching flowers grow.  Sometimes, they’re complaining because mom hurt her knee and can’t take them for their walkies.  She posts every day (sometimes more than once) whatever the topic, there’s no doubt she loves her zoo.  (Her words not mine.)

Please help me welcome Lorian from Dogdaz!

Park Day

Many of you thought you’d be confused by the trail markers and I have to tell you truthfully, even though the trails all seem to intersect with one another, it took me the LONGEST time to figure it out.

We’d be walking along and Hubby would ask where we were and I wouldn’t know.  He’d say, but you walk these trails every day!

Eventually you figure them out. 🙂

Black and White Sunday

No, we did not get more snow!  This is an old photo from our pre-Delilah days.  One of my favorite walking trails along with one of my favorite photos of Punkin.  I love the sunlight vs shadow in this photo.

Talking Heads

You are all very welcome for not showing a video.  I’m sure you realize the chicken head doesn’t look like it just came off the chicken, it’s actually kind of spooky.  But the story was meant for amusement and some of you were amused and some were skeeved out.  I can assure you I was skeeved out the first couple of times but after that it didn’t bother me, until the chicken was moving it’s mouth.

Let me try and put this in perspective, a box of 40 pounds of neck with each neck weighing an ounce or less equates to about 640 necks give or take.  I don’t find a head in every box so it’s not all that bad, it’s just a bit shocking the first couple of times. 🙂

Tuesdays Tails

Did you love this idea for a blog hop?  I sure did!

2 Brown Dawgs said, “I wish shelters did more outreach to pair senior dogs with senior people who may want a dog but due to their age may outlive any dog they take in.”

I like this idea.  A lot!  I’ve already decided when the time comes for me to add another dog, I’ll be adding a black senior.

Donna said, “How sad….I don’t know how anyone can drop their dog at a shelter…especially a senior who spent so many years with them…”  I agree Donna, but I think the soldier being deployed felt he had no choice.

All Things Collies said, “I wish there was a rescue set up to take in and foster these dogs when their owners are deployed.”

Then Frankie and Ernie said, “I THINK that there is a program that will find FOSTERS for those who are deployed. Does anybuddy remember hearing about that a couple of years back???”

And yes, I’ve heard of programs that will find fosters for soldiers on deployment, I can’t however put my finger on the name at the moment.  I do think however that many times our soldiers have no idea of the programs that are available to them.

Wordless Wednesday

Well most of you took the nice, polite PG caption I had for this photo.

Here are some of my favorites:

Jackie, “I thought this was gonna suck, but it’s actually kinda nice!”

Pamela, “Hello Baby, you know what I like…”  and then, “Am I the only one who thinks that if Sampson could talk he’d sound like the Big Bopper?”  You know, I never really thought of what Sampson would sound like.  Delilah on the other hand…..

Jessica, “You need to clean the bugs out of that light cover lady”

Mine is totally disgusting, not family oriented and will probably offend some of you, so if you want to avoid that skip down to the end. I’m rating it R for Raunchy.

For those of you brave enough to handle my dirty humor, here it is

Blowdrying So THAT’s a blow job, it’s not bad but I don’t think I’ll be bragging about it to my buddies.

I told you it was Raunchy.
