Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

Forget about washing your car... If you wash your dog it pretty much guarantees rain. Wash 3 dogs & you'll get a deluge.

It looks like its done now, but geeze, I don't remember the last time it rained that hard.

Why not?
Do you think people would get offended?
It kinda blows me away as to what people think offends them these days.
Not sure how we can survive as a society the way we carry on about our feelings.... The Russians and the Chinese are gonna stomp us weaklings to the ground some day.....

I think everyone here is open to hearing each other's belief systems. . but others that may view the thread could make a big deal out of it and we don't need our beloved pond to get locked up

Did you really take the time to wash ALL THREE DOGS? Then they got rained on?

And I am sure they rolled about in the mud too.

I really did. They don't roll in it, but they're short so that's 12 legs, 12 feet & 3 undercarriages full of mud. At least the tops are still clean.

When I had my tiny little hernia operation I started hyperventilating!

Such panic! In hindsight I wish I had written in sharpie on my belly, hernia here, (with arrow) do not remove any organs.

But I have issues.

When I had my Rt Inguinal hernia repair, the doctor asked me to tell the OR what I was there for. "I am here for a right inguinal hernia repair." Said twice while pointing to the right side of my groin. Last thing I remember is trying to say something about organ protection, but I was sent to la la land. For the Left Inguinal hernia repair, I just said, "This side. Be careful."

DD3 was stuck tight in my ribcage & had to be c-sectioned out. It was somewhat planed as in 'If she hasn't moved by next Tuesday, we're going in.' I know people do this everyday & sometimes they do it on purpose, but I was terrified. Worse, they make you walk into the surgery room on your own two feet. I remember standing outside the door for way too long thinking, you gotta be kidding me, they want me to voluntarily walk in there. DH kept saying, "You gotta go in." but I just stood there frozen like a statue staring at the door. Finally a nurse came out & lured me in. I got a great kid out of it, but I still stop breathing a little when I think too hard on it. I'm not great with hospitals even on the best of days.

Imagine takeing the time to wash 2000 lbs of horse putting conditioner in her hair and grooming out a tail that could drag the ground If I didnt trim it. Snipping hair that is fly away hanging out her ears... and Generally making her Purtiful....

Then turning her out in the arena where its clean..... And OOOFfff Down she goes Waggling her tail in the dirt rolling on her back getting stuck there a moment kicking her legs as she rolls over.... Griding her face in the dirt...

Yep.... Thats my girl....
