Oh, I forgot, Do you know what is better than finding your favorite adult beverage at the store? Finding your favorite adult beverage at the store ON SALE! :)
I'd like that twice if I could!

Good morning. :)

Tomorrow will be my giant ups delivery day. Two cookbooks for the electric pressure cooker granny had me order from amazon for her, a million teeny tiny colored rubberbands for Morgan's thingy to make bracelets with, and Avon delivery day. I can't believe she spent all the money she had saved up, $16, on rubberbands. :blink:

My first day back to work went fine. I'm wiped out though. Took me almost 2 hours just to prep the irishdoodle. He was extremely matted and pushed and pulled against me the whole time. My back and head were soaking wet from sweat by the time I got him bathed. I got to sit down for about 30 minutes before I had to get up and finish him. Here's his "before" and "in the middle of the groom", and "after" pics. He hasn't been groomed since I did him last JULY! [emoji50] In the second pic you can see he was so matted that the hair was coming off in one sheet. That's hair hanging from his belly and neck still attached to his skin. And of course the owner was not happy when I told her he had to be completely shaved, face and all. Learn how to pick up a brush or get him groomed more than twice a year. She's getting off easy at $70 too.

Time to cook dinner. pizza bread for everyone but me. I'm going to eat that long awaited baked sweet potato since I didn't get to eat the one from last week because Apollo got it off the counter and ate half of it.

I used to have a standard poodle right before we left VA. I got him groomed whenever he started looking a bit shaggy. He loved it! He would come home and prance around, he knew he looked good! :lol:

This week will be a rough one, there was a bout of the "blue flu" today. :( 3 people called out. No clue what tomorrow will bring...
That's not good...

I decided to do what FV suggested yesterday. I'm taking the day off and doing nothing! Oh, wait, that's my normal job. Dang it then I'm going to do something. A trip to the liquor store and another to the beer distributor. Can't just sit around and do nothing... :lol:

Take me with ya!

On the bright side, if there is one, is that Amazon is sending a new one.I can return ship for free...I LOVE Amazon...It will be here on Saturday...Sandwich and soup from Panera tonight.It was tasty.

Good morning! It's 7 here right now, and was 53 in the hut when we woke up. Ack, the fire went out. brrrrrrr. Hopefully it will be a bit warmer than that when we get home. Nothing makes you want to stay in the shower more than a freezing bathroom. :lol:

Stretchy, is the fan going in the kitchen?

did someone say road trip? Don't leave without me. [emoji23]
Hubby and Morgan are going on a camping trip. They leave tomorrow and come back Monday.

Second day at work and am exhausted. 2 small yorkies and an elderly very large, with emphasis on large. Luckily he walked right up the ramp in to the tub and out too. TV show catch up time while it's quiet and I'm alone.

Quiet alone time is what every parent lives for!

Tonight was a hockey game. It was a great game except for the part where we lost 4-3 in OT. Tomorrow we are headed down to San Diego to watch our team play the Anaheim Ducks AAA team (the San Diego Gulls). We are going with about 30 other people who sit near us at the home games. Rumor has it that tailgating may occur. :party:

Good morning!

Mr. V left early to do the mail route thing, so Victor and I slept in til 8. It's hutwork day, so I'm in no rush around here. :laugh:

Glad you are back to work Tiff, just don't over do it.

A hockey game sounds like fun Rick! So does tailgating. We haven't done that in way too long.

Good morning.
Electronics haven't been good at the shack for the last 6 weeks. Started with the livening room laptop not wanting to charge. So replaced the battery and got a new charging cable still not charging. Repairs will cost more than we paid for it. So I was using the back up Ipad 3 days ago it stopped charging. That Ill send in to apple. :lol: So down to my main computer and Hubby's chrome book. So bite the bullet and ordered one. Oh well that one was used 100-200 hours a week.
