Congratulations… its POO!

Everyone knows I love animals and so does Jack, Dillon and Nathan, but just in case you want to know how messed up about pets we are, read on.

Just 2 days ago, Dillon and I were upstairs queuing up a homeschool video and waiting for Nate to grab his snack. We were fast-forwarding through the screen ads before the show and there was a dog in one. We not only stopped, hit rewind and played, but we both went, “ Ah-hhh!” in stereo when the dog came on. Nathan coming up the stairs wanted to know what was up, so we hit rewind again, and he went “Ah-hhh!” with us the second time.

I looked around and there were no less than 5 dogs within petting distance and 3 cats watching us. We joked they were jealous but their intentions were clear as soon as we sat down. They just wanted to squeeze in next to us or on us.

Its official, we don’t keep pets. We are pets!

HOOT!

What’s with the headline? Congratulations its POO!

Well I slept in this morning. Its storming out and Dove and Cherry have storm fears so they woke me often in the night needing calming meds etc. There was also the inevitable giant pee in the dinning room since Dove will not go outside for her “chores” when she is rattled by a storm.

So I was up a lot. I hauled myself out of bed 2 hours late to find Harvey Poo. I was cleaning it up when I heard rubbing noises upstairs. Jack was getting ready for work up there but this sounded different. I went about cleaning up the nasty poo. When Jack yelled down “ Harvey? Are you happy now, we are both cleaning your nasty poo!”

LOL! Love is cleaning poo together!!

Anyway, We started joking ( yelling from upstairs to down) about this being similar to when our boys were babies. Him changing one while I changed another. 

“Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Cates. Its… POO!”

I have never laughed so hard in all my life while cleaning the poo, except when Jack made those man faces when he got the kid with poo! LOL! Men are amazing things, they can walk through fire to keep their families safe, work the long hours at a boring job and come home and say their day was fine, eat burnt dinner and call it a feast, but Sweet Heaven, the poo gets them to squench up their face nearly every time!

Send out some positive computer energy to Kim B today she is having computer issues and all the withdrawal and fixing headache that go with it! Luckily her store is not having a single snag over at DSO.

So you’ll have no trouble at all to go pick up the Collaborative Grab Bag she is doing with Bunny Cates. Its is one of the best I have seen. Its big, full of diverse goodies and its on sale for $8 for a little while longer. There are 9 products inside totaling 52 items. When these 9 products go into Bunny’s and Kim’s respective stores they will be at regular price and you will be wishing you had listened to your Jodiann. Remember these are commercial USE designer goods. So take note my friends you can drop these items into your own kits ( TOU are included) as well as enjoy them for personal use!

Okay and one last thing to share. I have been a kookie nut job over these Painted Buntings coming to feed in our yard. Yesterday I was minding my own business keeping to the kitchen, mostly making a big mess to clean up and stuffing the freezer and bang I got distracted by the birds and ended up behind the camera tripod. Jack was playing guitar upstairs and came down for some sympathy for his guitar wrist pain and I was so engrossed I didn’t realize how rude I was until an hour later. Sorry Jack, raincheck on the wrist sympathy darlin’! Catch you next time, Sweet!

Anyway, we are getting TONS of these little tiny birds in our yard now, they are everywhere and I am getting better at stealing their souls! *grin*
