I got a rude wake up call twice last night...with everything else going on around here, I have been (unintentionally) neglecting our dogs....& 1 of them let me know it....well....she couldn't help it....she got the runs. I am SSSOOOOOOO glad we got the carpet cleaner last year!!!! I don't think our neighbors below us were too happy though...1:30am & 3:45am had it running to clean up the messes.....poor ole girl....she seems to be doing better so far this evening, but will have to put her in the crate for the night....just in case. I feel so awful for not noticing sooner!  |

I bloody hope so or why are we all looking for him!!!
When I go to Cambridge tomorrow I'll keep my eyes peeled for crocodiles just in case!!! and hunky Australian men with tattoos and bush hats! You never know your luck!
I'm not looking for him ... I already have him *smug grin* (although I'm not sure he'd wrestle a crocodile on my behalf!) There is a crocodile farm near me. Let's hope they haven't escaped. I got a rude wake up call twice last night...with everything else going on around here, I have been (unintentionally) neglecting our dogs....& 1 of them let me know it....well....she couldn't help it....she got the runs.

Awww, poor little thing! My pussy-cat is poorly and I have a vet appointment for this afternoon, but I really feel I should have noticed a few days ago that she wasn't quite right. We can now feel guilt-ridden together.  |

Well TX My news for today (non dialysis) is that I am a bit worried about one of the kids. She is on a netbal tour with the school and she phoned and she said it is absolutaly awful. The food is bad, the place is dirty, they are not learning anything new and THERE IS A LOT OF SPIDERS. So I am just a bit worried (being the mom and all) Tomorrow 1 April is "april fools day" and I sometimes hates the stupid things people do but I am going to try very hard to get into the scheme of things. So that is my news for today. |

We have the handi plates on our car....I don't like to park in the handi spots if it's just me. I went to a store yesterday & parked right next to the handi spot...as I was walking to the door to leave, these 2 people came in & they were griping because I parked NEXT to the handi spot & not IN it....so they couldn't park in front of the store (they parked 2 spots down from the store front)....I don't know what I should do in situations like that....take advantage of the handi plates?? It was kinda funny listening to them get that upset though (I'd seen them in that store before & they are never really nice at all to the employees there anyway).

Texan, it's best to ignore the trolls in real life, just like you do for the ones online!
If you had parked in the handi spot, they would have just griped about people getting good spots "when they don't even look sick!"
