Yikes!

Serenity Now

The brown dog relieved herself on our dining room rug yesterday morning.

This is now under the rug on our 60-year-old hardwood floor.

The interweb tells us that if we soak a paper towel in hydrogen peroxide and lay it on the stain for a few hours it will help. Otherwise we will have to sand and refinish over the stain.

Here’s hoping.

Has this ever happened to you guys?

True Love

is digging your husband’s reusable K-Cup filter out the trash can. At 9 o’clock at night.

Even if you are the one who put it there.

Note to Self

Wait saw to stop spinning before you set it down

AND don’t set it down (still spinning) on its own power cord (something tells us you don’t need electrician training to realize this)..

Or you’ll end up here.

Just like we did last weekend.

I won’t tell you which one of us accompished such a thing – but her name starts with a A and ends with an Amy Whited.

Strapping Aren’t They?

New watches from la mer. If only I had not bought myself that shiny new alternator yesterday.

 

Don’t you hate when you accidentally buy auto parts instead of jewelry?

Here’s to a Less Eventful Holiday

Ever heard that saying when it rains it pours? We kind of experienced that with both of our automobiles ever since Thanksgiving. On our way home from Alabama in November this happened.

This came about after a few cars in front of us wrecked and we hit one of these.

And of course what would this post be without an artist’s rendering of the incident.

You’ll notice that both pups were extremely confused. Especially the little upside down one. And Chad’s beard looks like Santa.

It was scary but thankfully we were unhurt and the Jeep is still driveable as f-ugly as it’s looking right now.

Oh and the rest of the raining and pouring – literally?

My car battery died twice last week which led to me going to get a new one hours before we had people over for a holiday party. That was easy and expensive enough.

But then in an effort to let our house guests have space in the driveway I parked my car in the grass beside our carport. Add one monsoon that night along with me forgetting to go move my car and you have one very muddy and very stuck Cobalt.

AAA had to come tow me out of my own lawn.

Awkward.

And now our grass looks like this.

Yeah, we are those neighbors.

Christmas Came Early

for one fearless little dog. She’s being punished as we speak.
