Mornin' y'all.
I REALLY did NOT want to get out of bed this morning. Melanie woke up at 11:30 last night. She came in the bedroom crying because she "Couldnt find her sleep".
After I got her back in bed, I got comfy and had JUST started to drift off when I heard CJ saying "Ow.....OW.....OWWWWWWWA!" So, I go check on him. I open his door, and he's still passed out asleep, backwards on the bed with one foot hanging off the side of the bed with his head on the footboard. 
Then Melanie was up at 5:00 this morning to use the bathroom. When my alarm went off, I got in the shower like always. When I got out, CJ was sitting in the hallway. It was too late to put him back to bed, so I told him to go ahead and get up and get dressed.
Mrs E is taking her parents' neighbor to the doc/hospital today for surgery to remove a mass in her breasts. She was diagnosed with breast cancer a couple of years ago. She's had to give Mrs E power of attorney because her daughter is a raging bit*h and moved to FL to live with her boyfriend/babydaddy not two months after her mother was diagnosed with cancer. But now that she's getting older, Mrs E thinks her mind is starting to go. She's forgetting entire conversations. So Mrs E will be bringing that up to her doctor today.
Since Mrs E will be gone, the kids will be getting off the bus at one of Kathryn's friend's house. I get to leave work this afternoon, go home to drop off the work van to get in the minivan to go get them. Throw some tv dinners in the microwave, change clothes while they eat, then load the van up with everything I need for practice tonight. I hope Mrs E gets home by then to help with getting the kids bathed and in bed. If not.... well, its gonna be a late night for them.
I wish I knew what brand of harness my brother has for his boxer. I cant remember if I told y'all he got her from a rescue shelter. She's gorgeous and seems to behave a lot like Victor does. i.e. perfect angel. Anywho... the leash/lead doesnt attach to the harness at the top between the shoulder blades like most harnesses. It attaches low and under the neck. But what makes it cool, is the fact that the ring that you hook the leash/lead to, moves. As she pulls to one side, the ring slides to the other side and pulls her off balance without putting much tension on the leash. It prevents her from being able to pull too hard. I witnessed how effective it was last weekend. She tried to run after another dog that was being walked, and as soon as the leash pulled tight, she stumbled away from the direction she was trying to run, and it barely pulled my brother's arm. Its REALLY effective, and puts absolutely no pressure on her throat.
I giggle like a little school boy every time someone says "chick pix" here.

That sounds like Charli. She's a "hugger". She will literally put her paws on your shoulders and snuggle under your chin. I think its awesome. Houseguests.....not so much.

Ive got a picture of Charli sitting beside Mrs E. Kathryn calls it the "Laser Eyes" picture. The glare from her eyes' reflection is so bright, it dims out the rest of the picture.Congrats, Ruger! He looks a little demonic in that photo, though....
"Chick pix" doesn't sound like what they are. That term (as it's used in here) cracks me up.

Youre about half right. It IS a morning. The jury is still out on the "good" part.
It could be worse, I know.
