Toaster strudels in my belly. Yum.

Falling asleep at my desk. Drinking my own coffee hot chocolate mocha concoction.

Going necessities shopping at lunch.

My life is so exciting, try to remain calm. I want to go home and take a nap.

Molly is still coughing. Norman barfed in the kitchen this morning. Frankie stepped in a pile of dog poop. One of the broody mamas pooped in the food dish.

Just another day in paradise.

blue mermaid salt...my kids would think that is so cool.


ok, so Molly dog hurt herself yesterday pretty bad. I was unloading the car and preparing to take the dogs on my next trip. Molly was keen to this and was on her lead and throwin a fit...I think she thought I would leave her. Her stupid collar slips...it loosens all the time and I know it's the brand because Poncho's does the same. I at first thought it was a fluke but when I got one for Molly....I have the same problem. So her collar loosened and she got off her lead and ran like a crazy butt around the house.

...oh well, I thought...I'm almost done unloading so if she jumps in...no big deal. Well, as she was running back by...her lead...it's that wire coated in red plastic....wrapped around her legs and flipped her over from end to end. It was terrible. I thought she could have broken something it was that bad. She limped a little but isn't limping now. But what it did do was rope burn her in several areas...one front leg is about 5 inches of sore skin that turned red and bloody lookin and she keeps licking and it's now back to white but still looks painful. A small spot on her other front leg and one on one back leg. And a small slit right under her eye that got bloody.

Do you think I should wrap her leg in gauze so she stops licking it? Or put something on it?

I'm just wondering why Laree's DH didn't figure out that she was full of carp when she was talking about mermaids to make the salt blue.

He's an engineer

Must've been the universal day for cat barf. DH stepped in it, but his back hurt so badly he didn't even notice. Until I asked and he realized he's wearing one brown sock

Poor molly. Its a bad week for mollys it seems.

If it is raw looking, I would put something on it. I assume she would pick at any wrap you put on there but you may want to try anyways.

Is she tied out unattended or just for some exercise here and there?

BTW Laree, I forgot to thank you for the brightsparkly chicken you sent me. I am having a massive connundrum trying to decide where to apply it.
Sticking it to the cover of my 2010 Standards book would be highly unprofessional, but it would make me smile.
Then again, if I took it to a judge to argue a point, I might lose a little credibility before my point was even made.

If I stick it to my laptop, DH will whine.
Then again, it's MY laptop....
But will toting it around scrape off a sparkly leg or two?

Decisions decisions....
