Terrific Thursday!

I'm feeling soooo much better today.  I'm so glad!  I had a great Thursday as I got to go to school.  The kids are so wonderful and they were so happy to see me.  I think I make Allana's day a little brighter when I go to work with her.

Tonight we are all curled up on the couch as it is raining so we are relaxing and watching some of Allana's hundreds of hours of recorded T.V. she keeps stored up for rainy evenings.

Not so wonderful Wednesday

Today started out great!  Well, not great for Allana but great for me.  I got to go with Allana to the Honda Dealership and everyone loved me there.  Allana didn't seem too happy to be there though, but she paid the bill and off we went.  I thought I was going to school, but we did have a stop on the way.  It was the vet's office!  Now, everyone at the vet's office are always really nice  and they were today, but with Dan not home yet they gave me fluids.  Now when I get fluids from Dan they slowly drip in as we spend some male bonding time watching some sports event. ( I'm starting to really like college football.)  Anyways, they did it really fast.  It seemed fine at first but by lunch time, I was not feeling very well at all.  Allana tried to take me for a walk and I really didn't want to go.  I felt miserable.  I usually love going to Allana's work as it is the best place to hang out at, but not today.  Allana was pretty worried as she took me back to the vet.  I really just wanted to go home and go to bed.  Allana finally got me home and gave me some pills but I just can't get comfortable.  I really want to go to bed.   This was not a good Wednesday at all.  I hope Daniel is home tomorrow and that I feel better tomorrow.

Back Home

I got to spend a few days with Auntie Laura in Houston!  I love staying with her as I can shed all over her house and she never complains.  I got to go for lots of walks and even got to go to Sonic for lunch yesterday.  I like the city life as the restaurants are so close.  We can't even order pizza in the country!

Anyway, Allana picked me up and we stopped for a few minutes at the Mauldin's for a quick, but hot romp in the grass and then we were on our way back home.  Dan isn't here tonight.  I thought he would be back when we got home.  He must be coming in on the late night flight.

Allana is managing well today as we have not experienced any bug assaults or stalkings.

Surviving Saturday

Today's been O.K., but I don't understand why Star and I both got a bath, but only Star got to go for a car ride.  Star came back all happy as she got to go to the hospital to visit patients.  I think she just likes to brag about going as she gets extra treats.

Allana survived being attacked by a giant toad this morning.  She hadn't recovered from the gecko in the house last night or the spider in Felix, the black cat, was walking around with.  She's really got to get over this bug thing. 

Allana said Auntie Laura might come by tomorrow.  I wonder if she will take us out for ice cream?

Mom would never make it as a single parent

Dan better get home tonight as Allana is just not very good at this single parenting thing.  While in her world she got home early from work, it was way past what time Dan gets home.  I need to eat my supper at 5:30 p.m. sharp.  Now, I know I really don't like this new "special" food the vet ordered for me, but still it is about all I get around here.

I'm not sure why she gave Cooper a bath when he just had one a few days ago.  Maybe she just wanted to bath the puppy. 

I did enjoy watching the cat with a spider in its mouth chase her around the kennel.  It was really pretty funny.  She really needs Dan to come home tonight.

Presidential Debate and What Happens to me?

How does a Presidential Debate equal line brushing in the family room?  Let me tell you.  Dan gave me a bath and this is always followed by an hour of line brushing on the grooming table, but things were a little different tonight.  Dan was not focused on me but on the Presidential Debate with President Obama and his opponent, Mitt Romney.  These two men were debating National Security.  Well, I do feel safe here at home, but I haven't traveled very much lately.  I know Allana tells me that the parents of the students at her school are keeping us safe, so I guess I do need to say thank you to all the service members that are keeping me safe.  I really like being safe.

My concern about this presidential debate is that they didn't talk about the toxic dog treats that have come to this country and have killed some other dogs.  I'm very grateful that Dan and Allana look at ingredients and where all my food and treats come from.  I think having unsafe products coming into our country could be a threat to our nation.  I wonder what President Obama or Governor Romney feel about this topic?

Smoke is in the air

Our place is smelling like smoke again.  Dan is burning some of the old dead trees as he continues to chop down more dead trees.  I'm not sure how many dead trees there are on this property but there must be lots as Dan keeps chopping all the time.  I think I'll raid the pantry to see if we have marshmallows, chocolate and some graham crackers so I can at least make some s'mores.  There must be some benefit to all these dead trees and the smoke!
