Pets

It's 7:30 p.m., and I'm finally able to sit down and recuperate from my day. Not really recuperate, but, rather, reflect on it in between noises and chores. This morning was like any other morning - Wake up, cook breakfast for the kids, run a few miles, shower..Okay..That's where it fell apart. Breakfast was late because I decided to treat the kids to homemade croissants, which took far too long for our alotted morning meal before school, so naturally the shower had to be delayed in order to get out the door on-time.

Rosey Dane woke up with a big swollen something on her eye, so she took the ride to school with us, as the vet agreed to see her as soon as we could get there. Rosey was such a good girl! At about 5 months old, she finally asked to go outside! Okay, she went to the door, no real words or noises - but she caught me looking in her direction, so I call it asking! Good girl, Rosey!

The kids high tailed it out of the car for their tardy explanation in the office (I conveniently can't go in for the lecture because I can't leave Rosey in the car alone). Rosey and I head to the vet..Oy vey..what is that smell? Rosey! Diarrhea in the back of the van. Fun! Back home - clean the van - race to the vet (smelling a little funky, not showered - pretty sight!). Rosey has a cherry eye - to the tune of $800 surgery! Lucky Daddy will have to dig deep to pay that one off. Back into the smelly car.

We make it back home just in time to catch Terry (silky terrier puppy) rushing out of the boys room. WHAT?! She was in her cage when I left. Little escape artist! The cage is open, the floor is tinkled on. Lucky me!

I sit down to check the Nest and go to work on the new Homepage design. Three hours later, hungry (forgot breakfast), smelly (still no shower), and aching shoulders from leaning over the computer, I realize I have 40 minutes before I have to pick up the boys from school. Whoever said that moms who work from home have too much time and too little to do, was not ever a working mother.

How was your morning? LOL!

This was a little unplanned...We are adding another baby girl to our household! Rosey is 12 weeks old!

I had to post this picture b/c my kids laughed so hard..

So our little silk terrier, who is only 9 weeks old, made it through the night w/out soiling his crate! I was so surprised! I put he and Piper's crates next to each other so they could be close.
