Poop disaster update. poor Widget

I hope it's over now. Widget was sick, it really wasn't her fault we were having a poop disaster. A visit to the vet and a big bill and a big bag of drugs for the dog later...we might be getting better today. She has eye drops, and stuff to add to her food, and antibiotics, and a pill. Weeee fun.

She did sleep through the night and not sneak anywhere to leave poop for me to wake up to--can you hear the angels singing?

Poop Disaster

Yes. I said it. Poop Disaster. I don't have kids so the universe decided I should have poop from another source. Maybe since The Mrs hasn't told a poop story recently it was my turn. *insert laughter and hugs for the Mrs here* Or something. Widget is pooping. Not a lot, just enough to make me insane. You have to understand, if you have seen the movie Wall-E, I'm Mo. LT Dan and Lisa call me Mo quite a LOT. Poop.on my carpet.makes me crazy.

I've cleaned the carpets, the entire house. I was hoping (no, make that praying) that she was done, but 'lo this morning, more poop in the hall and the guest room. I'm out of stuff to clean up poop with.

Widget will never go to that "bed and breakfast" to stay ever again. Tonight she may find herself sleeping in the kitchen. Enough is enough.

I promise to make the post I was really going to make later today, right now I have to go to the store and get pet stain stuff then see if the baby steam cleaner will fix this. Or maybe I'll have to haul out the big one and clean the guest room and hall yet again.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

I know I've been gone from my bloggy friends a long while. I'll be back. Meanwhile, LT Dan and I are about to travel to the great frozen tundra that is the Midwest. Wish us luck, I imagine we'll be spending Tuesday night in O'Hare and if we aren't, then we'll be driving from another airport to my Mom's in a snow storm. Yeah. LT Dan says to think positive. I'll try.

I hope you all are well, happy, warm and safe. Please give your babies an extra kiss on their little heads for me and enjoy your holiday!

I like this

“You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.

You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.

You cannot help little men by tearing down big men.

You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer.

You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.

You cannot establish sound security on borrowed money.

You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.

You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn.

You cannot build character and courage by destroying men’s initiative and independence.

And you cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they can and should do for themselves.”
