Morning all! I'm awake way too early lol gotta do the morning shift at work so we can get things done before it gets too hot, not loving it at all.

I think I actually cooked part of my hand yesterday just grabbing the steeing wheel LOL and thinking I need to keep oven mitts in the car now.

Came home last night to confetti all over the house, apparently the dogs had one heck of a party while I was at work and then left the mess for me to clean up, very rude I tell ya! I'm still not sure what they got hold of, I'm just hoping it was like a bills or something and not paperwork I actually need LMAO

DevD Good idea about the oven mitts :laugh:

I'm with you -- low to mid 90s here all week and I'm too am taking the doggie girls out for their walk earlier than usual -- no leisurely stroll through the park in this weather! We all come back from the walk with our tongues hanging out! :lol:

Stay cool Trippykin! :D

Today has already been full of facepalms and heavy sighs.

We got a new work contract, it's only for 2.5 months, a seasonal haul. We need phones that will work in that area. There is 1 carrier that I know works there, and that same carrier was recommended by people that travel through there for work. Most of the driving is through a dead zone, a few houses in the desert, but mostly just sagebrush. My boss thinks that I can easily get a phone contract for 2.5 months. I tell him no the carrier will only do business contracts for 2 years and family plans for 1 year if you are lucky. or it will be 150 per phone to cancel out when you are done. He swears up and down that it can be done. I tell him that we could only do such a thing if we switched all our phones to that service (something I've tried to get him to do every year for the last 5 years) but no, he will not end his strange obsession with having an att phone. I tell him we can go the pre-paid phone route and he doesn't like that either and demands I call this company. So I call the company that we want, and after 6 conversations with 6 different people, I get to tell him what I already freaking told him. Pretty sure he should just believe me when I tell him something, it would save us both a lot of time.

Thank all goodness for vaping... this week my morning routine has included getting up, showered, dressed, making coffee, taking the girls out for their walk, and coming back home to cool off and nurse my coffee cup and then have my first vape about an hour and a half after waking! It's absolutely wonderful to be liberated of that needling feeling I used to experience as a smoker! :toast:

Yesterday was the first time in over a year I almost caved and had a cigarette. I made it through, but barely. I had to call out of work on my second week because my car broke down and there were some complications, there still are as in we can't figure out what's wrong.

Then my dog ate my bras and my shoes.

So, I'm hoping I still have a job and that I can find a bra or two to get me by until payday. I know that might sound funny, but I only have two that work under my scrubs. And my shoes were brand new. He has a million toys, but of course he wants to eat my stuff.

There is no way this dog is two years old. Not two in dogs years at least!

Hope the rest of Trippyville is surviving. I'm a grumpy Kat so I'm going to go clean or something.

Kudos for overcoming that craving Katann :)

Sorry to hear about your new shoes and other stuff :unsure: - It's so hard to train doggies sometimes because you have to catch them in the act and then give the stern 'No' so they could make the connection with what they did wrong. Maybe you can accelerate the training by doing an exercise where you put some shoes in a row a short distance from you and him and when he approaches them do the stern "Uh uh uh!" or "NO!" and when he backs away reward him with a celebratory "Good Boy!" Hugs to you and woofs and licks to Jakey :wub:

(((kat)))

I don't know who that Murphy guy is, but him and his law need a serious .....slap ;-) I'm sure your employer can forgive you for calling in, everybody knows that sometimes shtuff happens


I am beyond ...... off! I've been waiting to get my saddle valve punch in, since the folks at Lowes and Home Depot looked at me like I'm crazy. So it finally gets here and it's in pieces. Well, that's okay, I thought, I can put it together. Except there's pieces I have no clue where they go and more importantly, you know the punch thingy (sharp, punches the carto when you turn the wheel?)Well it's all the way out, as in sticking out a good 1/4 inch and when I turn the wheel to try to get to go back inside, nothing happens. I look in the hole and guess what? The Wheel thingy isn't attached to the punch thingy! It looks broken! I'm going to have to break down and buy pre-punched cartos. What's worse, since those damn holes are too small, I'm gonna have to change my juices to heavy PG!!!!!:mad:

Reid, how about this? Only $7 and it works pretty well for me. Drew usually ships quick, too

It keeps overheating. There's a leak somewhere and we can't find it. We've changed out hoses and thermostat and various other things over time, but after about 3 months it happens again. My husband usually does all our repair work, but we can't seem to fix this one. It's a 2003 Honda Civic.

Mornin all, hope y'all are having a happy Friday.
Kat, sorry to hear about your woes with the car and Jake. I can't help with the car thing, but as far as Jake goes, you should confine him somehow when you're not there. If he has a kennel/crate use that; if not set up a bed in the bathroom and close it up. Crates aren't bad things; dogs are denning animals and it actually can comfort them. I used to have Sophie sleep in her playpen, I later started to put her in her crate to sleep. She actually makes less fuss in the crate than she does in the pen.
