We're Ready To Go.....

4 days til take-off....

We are so excited for our BIG trip. Only 4 more work days, I know I can make it.
We'll be leaving Weds night and driving driving driving. Today I bought CB his seatbelt. We tried it out for a few blocks to take James to work and he yelped the whole ride. I think we'll continue to try it thru-out the weekend and hopefully he'll get used to it. If not then it's gonna be a loooooong ride!
We'll get to the bay area in the middle of the night and will likely stop and sleep at Stewy's. Then maybe a Grease pit for breakfast, stop by mama's for a quick hello and then it's back in the car to head up to Winters.
We'll stay there for the night, hang with James' fam or have a drink with some friends we have up there. Then Friday Cowboy meets his cousins. We're very excited to hang out with Nikki and the crazy puppers.
Saturday is James' sisters wedding...so back to winters at some point btwn fri and sat.
Sunday we'll close up shop and head back down to the bay, see mama for a brunch of sorts, hang with her until she kicks us out. And then we're off...or wait, maybe we'll catch pops for dindin AND THEN we're off. A lovely 8, or 10 hour drive (with a crazy crying cowboy) back down to SD.
Monday, memorial day, will be a day of beers, bowls, relaxation and absolutely NO MORE DRIVING!!!

Eeeeeeh, we can't wait.

Happy Moms Day (from my fur-kid)

You feed me when I'm hungry.

You keep water in my dish.

You let me sleep on anything.

Or in any place I wish.



You sometimes let me lick your hands,

or even lick you face,

Despite the fact I've licked myself

In every private place.



You taught me how to come when called,

You taught me how to sit,

You always let me go outside,

So I can take a *&%$....err i mean stroll



You'll always have my loyalty,

Up to the bitter end,

'cause after all, it's plain to see...

You are this dog's best friend.

Let them eat soap!

My neighbor just came home and was kinda drunk. He stopped by and asked for a bottle of water [sounds weird, i know. but he's not. he's actually been out of town all week so he has no groceries] and he was kinda drunk so
1. he had no inhibitions about asking; and
2. he needed the water since he'll likely be hung over in the morning.
(fyi:we can't drink our tap water here.)
anyway so he asks for the water and i give him a few bottles. then he's like "oh come over to my house and i'll give you my netflix from this week. (he always lets us borrow em) so cowboy and i walk next door and like i said neighbor is kinda drunk so he's fumbling around, finding the movies. well we're talkin and cowboy wanders around his house lookin for trouble.
then i see him lickin his chops all sneakily. so i grab what he has and it a blue slobber-covered thing. I say "what is this?" and dave says "ah dont worry about it, i dont mind" and i say "no i dont think he should eat this...whatever it is" so we're examining this thing and realize its an old gross almost done piece of soap. dave checks the bathroom and sure enough cowboy got into the bathroom trash making a big mess along the way.
so i washed cowboys mouth out...not with soap but to get the soap out. and i laughed at him because he just ate soap.

My little sicko

Awww my poor little baby is sick as a dog.
Runny nose, sneezing, extra sleepy. It makes me feel so sad. I've been hibernating in the house this weekend just caring for my little sicko.

Ugh.............

Only TEN and a HALF hours until I have to go back......

Why oh why can't my weekends be longer?
