The ickiest thing that happened to me today was my neighbor’s dog peeing on me while I was over there playing with him while the cable guy fixed my cable and had to access the neighbors yard to do so. Hey, he was so happy to see me. He just had a less then pleasant way of showing it.
The most impulsive thing I did today was submit an application to foster Golden Retriever/Golden Retriever Mix.
The funniest thing I heard/read today is this.
The Washcloth
Ladies this has to be read, laughed at and passed on. There is not a woman alive today who won't crack up over this! I was due for an appointment with the gynecologist later in the week.Early one morning, I received a call from the doctor's office to tell me that I had been rescheduled for that morning at 9:30 am. I had only just packed everyone off to work and school, and it was already around 8:45am. The trip to his office took about 35 minutes, so I didn't have any time to spare. As most women do, I like to take a little extra effort over hygiene when making such visits, but this time I wasn't going to be able to make the full effort.So, I rushed upstairs, threw off my pajamas, wet the washcloth that was sitting next to the sink, and gave myself a quick wash in that area to make sure I was at least presentable. I threw the washcloth in the clothes basket, donned some clothes, hopped in the car and raced to my appointment.I was in the waiting room for only a few minutes when I was called in. Knowing the procedure, as I'm sure you do, I hopped up on the table, looked over at the other side of the room and pretended that I was in Paris or some other place a million miles away. I was a little surprised when the doctor said, "My, we have made an extra effort this morning, haven't we?" I didn't respond. After the appointment, I heaved a sigh of relief and went home. The rest of the day was normal . Some shopping, cleaning, cooking. After school when my 6 year old daughter was playing, she called out from the bathroom, "Mommy, where's my washcloth?"I told her to get another one from the cupboard.She replied, "No, I need the one that was here by the sink, it had all my glitter and sparkles saved inside it."Never going back to that doctor. Ever.
The most annoying thing to happen to me today is that I have another headache. This is the second afternoon/evening in a row I have a headache. Last night it got so bad that I was nauseous and I had to take both Advil and Tylenol before it lessoned. It is very unlike me to have a headache, especially such bad ones.
Those are the highlights of my day so far. The good, the bad, and the ugly. Max will be home soon for mommy time before bed. We will see if he wants/will eat dinner, which he hasn’t wanted to do recently. He is in one of those reduced eating phases at the
moment.
ETA: The happiest I was today was when Shadow wanted to walk all the way around the block this morning. She hasn't wanted to do that in weeks. Of course, I was totally unprepared and was in my slippers and without a bra, but alas, that didn't damper my joy when she just kept going. Granted, tonight she just went two houses over after going all the way to the corner last night so it is hit or miss. It still made me happy to see her so happy to be out and sniffing the pee-mail.

Hey Deb! Been thinking about you and wanted to try to catch up. Sorry you're feeling down. I certainly can't blame you. I know how hard and not fun this is. I wish this were easier.
Love,
Margie
