I'll chips to that! (raises bag) lol get it? so so sad...

Hehe... I think you'd have enough chips for tonight Sunny...

Can I have an escalade? I'm not married or a man!

Escalade YES! Now your talking. That's my dream vehicle right there. White with slightly tinted windows.

Chips for the kid! Yay! ;) :)

It sucks when they're sick and there's really nothing you can do but wait it out. If chips help, then chips they shall have. Now I'm hungry. :(

Blacky, I'm not buying you a vehicle, you're a married man now, time to cut the apron strings. ;)

Can you buy me a vehicle, I'm not married :)

If so ill have an aquada please :)

I'll chips to that! (raises bag) lol get it? so so sad...

I do get it. That's the point that's sad. ;)

I love ketchup chips. Just saying. ;)

Ahhh but Alty will only buy you a car if you are sick...

Wow! Really? I'm so jealous...

But if I had the money, I don't think I'd get that car anyway... I'd invest the money or something...

I'd only get that car if Alty was willing to buy it for me... Lol!

Or if it was a real Transformer... ;)

This one was about $35,000. There were lots of pretty extras in it. Still not my thing though. I like big and powerful. I own the road if you didn't know.

I have ringalo's, but just not the same as a good ole salt and vinegar.

Bear, you better get to the back of line, I'm next. :p

Ahhh but Alty will only buy you a car if you are sick...



**cough cough**

Blacky what did you start! Now everyone wants me to buy them a vehicle! I have a crappy old van, I can't even afford to buy toilet paper right now (don't ask, I'm not telling you what we're using to wipe!).

You're all on your own, time to put some pennies in the piggybank and save up.

Now, does anyone have any toilet paper I can borrow. I prefer unused. ;)

Ahhh but Alty will only buy you a car if you are sick...

Goodness bear that's a terrible cough I can hear across the pond.

Achoooo!! I think I'm coming down with something :o

Sorry Sister Alty...

Sounds like a new car to me... ;)

I have an abundance of TP. Every time it's on sale I stock up. My bathroom closet is filled and now I am moving on to my spare bed room closet.

achoooo!!!!!!!, i think im coming down with something :o

Oh great. We can't have you sick. Now maybe you and bella can just share a car. Make is easier on Alty. I will send her my magazines for her arse, like the good ole' days. She can save money that way.

I'm with you there Bella... I buy stacks of it... and the wife asks why... she doesn't realize it gets used as fast as I can buy it... Lol!

Aren't magazines glossy? Wouldn't that make it difficult?

I'll never again have to wipe my a$$ with 7-11 napkins. I wipe my a$$ with class now! Charmin 3ply lmao.

Erm tisues are actually cheaper to buy than toilet paper and you get a lot more as well, plus they're bigger... yeah I've no toilet paper either :o

You can get wrapping tissue, and just crinkle it up a few times.

erm tisues are actually cheaper to buy than toilet paper and you get alot more aswell, plus theyre bigger............................yeah ive no toilet paper either :o

LOL! We'll have to do it doggy style... rubbing our arses on the carpet! ;)

You all thought I was being dirty, didn't you? Giggle. :)

Should we take a wipe your arse survey?
I use Scotties. I don't know why really. Its not soft but lasts forever.

I just had a very disturbing mental image there.

I was there with you. Very disturbing. Made me giggle though.

Hey Alty... didn't want to post this in the other thread... this might not be the right place either... but its not too bad...

About your comment about you not looking good as a nun, I beg to differ...

http://yepyep.gibbs12.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/nun-black-bra-fill-luck-fill.jpg

I use grass, carpet, or tp from the local gas station which I stash in my purse. Kidding! I'm totally kidding!

We buy whatever's on sale. With 4 people in the house, two of them male (yes, men us more TP) we use a few rolls a day.

When my husband is in the bathroom all I hear is the whooosh of the toilet paper roll. I swear that man uses one whole roll to wipe his arse, and they say women are bad.

I use both sides, I'm a good girl.

TMI? You asked Sunny! ;)

LOL! We'll have to do it doggy style.....rubbing our arses on the carpet! ;)

You can wipe your arse on the carpet I've got my box of tissues, cost me around 48p, had it for half a week and doesn't show any sign of running out. Even though I've used tisses for other things...






Like blowing my nose, yeah two (or more) can play dirty :D

I don't know if ALL men use a lot Alty... I don't think I do... I know the wife uses a lot more than I do... she has her own bathroom and the tp disappears in there like nothing... and when I'm not home, she sneaks into my bathroom and steals mine... Lol!

My nose isn't that big! :eek:

She has a big nose?

And what hat?

Oh, I didn't notice... :D

Those are store bought. No way they're au natural like mine.

Agreed.. it doesn't fit... She needs a professional fitting... care to lend a hand Alty...

Ahhh... nothing beats natural... :)

Those are definitely store bought. I do like the bra though.

The bra is cute, but I'd never wear it. I don't like the front. That underwire would cut right in. Okay for a photo shoot, but for every day wear, not practical.

Ya, I'm thinking about it. ;)

There isn't that much is there? I've seen A LOT worse...

K I have to change the subject for a second.

I have a super bad sweet tooth right now, and no chocolate. But I have all the baking necessities, except my brown sugar is hard a rock. But I have skor chippits and peanut butter. Anyone have any good recipes I can try?

I was going to get glam pics done for hubby's birthday. By glam I mean black and white nudes. Sadly it's not in the budget for this year. :(

No worries boys, I'll post them (with all naughty areas blurred) when I have the money to get them done. It's on the list of things to do one day. ;)

R and I were talking a few days ago about my old modeling pics. He's pretty sure we tossed them when we cleaned out my parents house after my dad died. There were so many boxes to go through that we didn't go through everything well enough. There wasn't time, we had to pack things up to move my mom to our house.

So all my pics, magazine modeling and nudes, may be gone forever. I even asked my ex if he still has them. He's looking, but doesn't think he kept them after he moved to the States. :(

Sorry boys. The internet wasn't available back then, so if I can't find a hard copy, I don't have a copy.

I was in a photoshoot once. Me and a couple friends. We were all topless and bald. Unfortunately, I didn't save any of the pictures when the photographer had them online.

What on earth are skor chippits? Is that actually food? Heck you guys have some weird sounding food and drinks. Maybe you could melt the brown sugar with some butter if you can chisel a lump off and make some peanut butter oat biscuits - if you have some oats.

I have started making my own chocolate. I have a kilo of raw organic cocoa butter in the fridge and all the dried stuff in the cupboard - now you made me want some. Here goes 2am chocolate making - again..

What better thing is there to do at 2am? Hmmm...

I'm looking for some my old pics. I have a few from an aspiring director/photographer ex boy friend. I know they are hanging around here somewhere.

Ok I just have one more question about baking. I found this recipe but it doesn't call for flour. Would that be okay do you think? (not an experienced baker here)

1 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup Nestles Butterscotch morsels
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1/4 teaspoon vanilla

aurora_bell agrees : How do you do that???

;)

Where? What? When? How? Link? :)

Yowsa! You are gorgeous!

Boys, drool! :)

**blushing** thanks. :)

There was professional make up involved as well.

If you don't have the looks, makeup doesn't do a thing. :)

I did bridal runway one year. We have a huge bridal show every year here in Edmonton, and I was asked to participate. I fit most of the bridal gown stock because of my height and size.

It was fun. I love wedding dresses, they're so beautiful, fun to wear, makes you feel like a princess. Thankfully I didn't have to wear heals, otherwise it wouldn't have ended well.

When I got my dress I was asked if I'd ever considered modeling because they all fit me so well... back then.

Modeling isn't easy. It's more then just being pretty.

I love the pictures Bella. I wish I had mine. :(

I wish you did too!

I wish I was that size again. I just printed it off and stuck in my fridge. Maybe it'll be that motivation I was looking for!


As I am making peanut butter caramel cookies. :p

"Hanging your bikini on the refrigerator door makes the goodies inside easier to ignore". ;)

Speaking of food, I have to go cook for the kids and me. Hubby is on nights, so it's just us 3.

I'll be back later. The kids are outside, will probably go back outside after dinner, so not too long.

Be good. At least be better then me, shouldn't be too hard. ;)

What's wrong with being bad?? ;)

Inside?? :confused:

Yes. It's a sofa bed. No matter I do to block off the bottom, they manage to get underneath. Once they're under there, they crawl around inside my couch.

Wow you look gorgeous Bell.

Those cookies sound yum. The chocolate is setting - but there's always the bowl to scrape out while I'm waiting. Shame I can't send you it to dip the cookies in.

yes. it's a sofa bed. no matter i do to block off the bottom, they manage to get underneath. once they're under there, they crawl around inside my couch.

Haha... cute, but dangerous... Lol!

Yeah my sisters had a cat once which liked to hide in the weirdest places... but it was a rescue cat, so when we tried to get it out, it would swipe us or growl... which is a pretty freaky found to be honest...

We had a pair of kittens that used to insist on sleeping in the top of a large plant pot, on top of the compost, one either side of the plant. We provided all sorts of lovely comfy alternatives but as soon as we turned around they were back in the plantpot.

I've pretty much given up on keeping them out of it. In a month, or three, they'll probably be too big to fit under there anymore, anyway. Until then, I just make sure I count all six kittens most of the time and that there's no crying when one, or more, of them is in the couch.

Thanks Q!

I don't know what I am going to do with 24 cookies though! I don't know what possessed me to bake at 11pm!

They can't get underneath the cushions. The folded up bed part of the sofa bed prevents that. They mostly like to climb up the back and run around on the part of the bed that folds up into the back. Since I prefer to sit with my legs up on the couch, I don't have to worry about accidentally leaning on someone.

I'm still waiting to see these kitty pic's hheath!

Can I still eat Alty's bunnies :)

Well this girl is exhausted. I had a rough night last night. After reading Shazzy's vent about her night of dog pee I'm thinking there's something in the stars because all my dogs were jerks last night too. ;)

I got around 2 hours of broken sleep, so I'm pretty sleepy.

I'm hoping the dogs co-operate tonight, otherwise someone may not make it out alive. ;)

Night all.

M, you're in charge, but stay away from the kitties. :)

Can i still eat Alty's bunnies :)

Lol cute... so mop is going to conquer the world?

If he does, it'll only be to maximize his cuddles.

if he does, it'll only be to maximize his cuddles.

Awwwww... cuteness to the MAX!!

Zoe, on the other hand, would conquer the world so she can sit on top of it going nyeah-nyeah-nyeah-nyeah-boo-boo.

Haha... that sounds like the cat my sisters had... it would sit on top of the pantry shelf and just watch whoever walked past.. looking down on them... Lol!

Also, it didn't like guys... like when it was just my sisters and mum at home, it was a nice playful cat, but if ti saw me or my dad, it would jump up on the pantry and watch us like crazy... LoL!

Coffee, and my book. Grumpy me.
Diary of a Call Girl... that has to be interesting!

Someday, I need to watch it because I really like watching Billy Piper.

How is moving going?

A lot of naked Billy Piper. Lots of sex that's for sure. I thought I wouldn't really take any interest in a show about a hooker but it's really good. Kind of like Nip/Tuck... I'm a sucker for series... ooh like Nurse Jackie..

Lol that is what I do on my free time.. watch shows online:D

Hey Starty :) Why so grumpy? Need a massage with a happy ending?:eek: Lol I ask because I'm there... haha

A happy ending?

So I caught that mouse that was in my stove. And she was definitely pregnant. But I just saw another one behind my T.V!!

I want to cry! I don't understand where they are coming in from!

Bella, mice can come in through the smallest holes and gaps. Good luck getting rid of them.

Do you think they could be coming in from where I put my hot water heater? It's in my closet.

You get mouse traps and keep putting them out till you don't kill anymore for a while! GO NOW... I am in the same boat... heard it in my sons wall and now I got to go get some traps. (not to mention the two mice in the living room in the past couple days from the cats "playing" with them!)

I saw a mouse last night...

It darted across the floor, stopped just in front of the linen cabinet, gave me a look or "ner-ner-ne-ner-nerr" and darted under a 1cm gap under the door.

He is gone now... so is his friend ;)

Did you use snap traps Shaz? Grr. I hate mice. They should all be banished to some island with animal abusers and rabid bears. Oh and they should be dipped in bacon grease before they land!

If you guys would borrow a snake from a local herpetologist the mice would be gone or digested within two weeks. Shaz, make sure it's a constrictor; you get nasty venoms down under.

How small can you get restrictors? I have little dogs remember :D

I use snap traps, but not the standard wooden base with a metal snap bit, mine are made from solid plastic with just a metal hinge/spring/thing... I find it does more damage so makes it faster.

T-rex traps are effective, but sometimes harder to set than the old fashioned ones. More especially they only work when Mickey has a restricted runway. Otherwise he goes around.

Constrictors can be a small as eighteen inches. Some Ball pythons only get to 24. Restrictors keep race cars safer.

Do you think they could be coming in from where I put my hot water heater? It's in my closet.

Were the openings sealed around the pipes?

Oh you shoosh, I don't know anything about snakes :p

I just googled the T-rex trap, yup that's pretty much what I have, just without the spiky edges.

http://pest-control-services.org/images/T-Rex%20Mouse%20Trap.JPG

Edit - yeah I have mine in small spaces like he gap behind the TV cabinet or behind the water heater.

Yes Cat there looks like there is more than enough room for a pest to get in. I shoved some bounce sheets in the openings. My room smells nice and fresh. I may have to borrow the neighbors cat for a week end!

I don't like killing things, but these little buggers are on Bella's ever loving last nerve. Time to play dirty!

Better yet, play for keeps. Pick up some polyurethane foam sealant. It looks like a shaving cream can with a tube on the nozzle. It blows into the gap and expands like shaving cream so they can't get in. They don't like the taste, either, so they won't gnaw through it again. If the hole is too large, stuff it with one of those copper scouring pads then foam it.

Speaking of pests, I think I have rats or mice or something in the roof of my house... we can hear them running around in there at night... they may be in the walls too... might have to do something about that sometime...

Crap. Busted. Again! :(

You must have some pretty tiny feet Alty... and you must be a lightweight... Lol!

If its you up there, I'll come up and see you sometime... ;)

I wear soft sneakers. :)

Come on up, I've been meaning to talk to you about redecorating up here. I could also use some food and a TV would be nice. :)

How small can you get restrictors? I have little dogs remember :D

I use snap traps, but not the standard wooden base with a metal snap bit, mine are made from solid plastic with just a metal hinge/spring/thing... I find it does more damage so makes it faster.

An interesting fact... do you know that there are no snakes in the Hawaiian Islands?

Sure... no worries.. you know you don't have to stay up there... we have spare room... which is my boys' room... and you can stay there... has a nice bed and a 42" Plasma TV... was going to put a bar fridge in there, but the wife won't let me... Lol!

An interesting fact...do you kow that there are no snakes in the Hawaiian Islands?

Apparently there are no snakes or spiders or any dangerous creatures in New Zealand... or so my wife tells me..

You had me at 42" Plasma TV. :) ;)

The kittens are being very sweet and calm and gentle today. They've cuddled and kissed and cleaned me. They've been sleeping on and off for the past couple hours. I think they know I'm mad at their mommy.

Edith dragged the loaf of bread I got yesterday off the counter, through the house, and into the living room. Then, she chewed open the bottom of the bag and made a mess of bread pieces and crumbs all over the carpet. I had to throw out the bread.

The worse part is, I don't own a vacuum.

Now I have to find a bread box somewhere. I can't keep my bread in the cupboard. When I do, it goes moldy within a week.

You had me at 42" Plasma TV. :) ;)

Cool cool... see you down there this evening... yeah the TV was something I got off eBay... such a deal... its connected to my PS2 also, so you can play with that if you want... :)

PS2... man you are so far behind the times Blacky ;)

I can't play most video games, I have vertigo, I get sick if the movement is unnatural or off. I can't even go on the old skin on AMHD because the colors make me ill. :(

There are many movies I also can't watch. Fifth Sense is one of them, there are a few scenes that just make me ill.

PS2 .............................. man you are so far behind the times Blacky ;)

Haha... sorry M... but I will update my gaming sometime soon... I just got that for fun... going to get a gaming PC soon though... that should be better... will get an Xbox one day too... when Project Natal gets released...

See? Dizzy already.

Oops. Sixth sense. My bad. :o

I can bet fifth element would mess with your vertigo, though. Especially when she's falling out of the building.

Agreed.. but I'm not such a fan of those movies... I like my Matrix better... :)

A movie is being shot in my town...

Hey everyone...

Hi mop...

Do you know what movie it is?

Do you plan to run in front of the camera while its shooting the movie, for your 3 seconds of fame?

Haha, no. and I'm not sure. I do know Val Kilmer or something like that is in it. They WERE going to use my house in it, but dad never gave them a straight answer.

Val Kilmer is hot with a capital H. Sizzle. :)

Just saying.

But they have tons of geckos. Cute little buggers, until they run across your bed in the middle of the night. :eek:

This is true Alty. On our first night at the out door bar at the Sheridan we watched about six of them playing on the stucco wall behind the bar. The bartender and other gusts just ignored them. They are a cute little lime green lissies.

Guys, I'm kind of depressed

Sup mop... what's getting you down?

My baby's due date should have been this weekend

When we were in Mexico we'd walk around the hotel and count the geckos. There were so many. One came into the room, I had to catch it and bring it back out, it was in a panic when it realized it was trapped with humans. Poor little thing.

Emop, I'm sorry. I know it's hard.

My baby's due date should have been this weekend

Wow... that must be hard... I guess you have to try not to think about that... think of other things... happy things... Sorry...

I'm trying, I'm talking to my friends and boyfriend. He stayed over my house for a few hours just to hold me while I cried

Emop, every year on March 17 I have a little birthday for the one I lost. I know it's hard but it does get easier. I don't cry anymore, mainly because I know it was for the best, it wasn't meant to be.

You're young, you still have a lifetime of having babies ahead of you. This one wasn't meant to be. Okay?

I know. And thank you Alty-mommy

Go out and plant a tree or flower. It's something you can do every year, and it's a way to bring new life into the world in honor of the one you lost.

That's a great idea Heath.

Every year on the anniversary of my parents death, I write a card and buy a helium balloon. I tie the card to the balloon and let it fly. It helps. :)

Alty, I am not at home, or else I would have e mailed you. But I kind of lost of her "google" answer.

Okay, Bella, I'm either really tired or that last half made no sense. ;)

Every year on halloween, I place a stone (last year I had to made do with lighting a candle) for the people close to me who've died. I also place one for all the things I lost (figuratively and literally) that year.

It not only helps me remember and honor the people that made a difference in my life, but it also helps me let go of some of the pain of loss. Some years the ceremony is longer and more involved than others. It all depends on what my soul needs that year.

Okay, Bella, I'm either really tired or that last half made no sense. ;)

Yup... it didn't make sense... ;)

Okay, Bella, I'm either really tired or that last half made no sense. ;)

Not a lick of sense.

Oh thank Dog, I thought it was me. ;)

Oh thank Dog, I thought it was me. ;)

Me too :confused:

Maybe Bella is just out of it today... too tired...

Sorry guys. :o

Weird night. Let something get to me that shouldn't.

I'm okay now though.

Hey M, nice shoes... wannna... dance?

Blacky, how were my cookies? :)

Me too :confused:

LOL! Well, you are a dog, so that would make sense. Or does it? Okay, maybe it is me a little bit.

I'm so tired I could die. Indy has been up barking all night for the last 2 nights, he won't let me sleep.

He goes outside, then asks to be let in but sits at the bottom of the steps. So I give him a few minutes because I know it's hard for him to do stairs (he only has two coming in from the garage) but he walks away. So I close the door, try to get things done, only 1 minute later he's barking at the door again. Grrr.

After around 20 times going back and forth, I finally pick him up (as best I can) and bring him in. As soon as I put him down he goes downstairs, 7 steps! He gets there and then sits at the bottom of the stairs barking because he has trouble getting back up. He can do it, just would rather not. I cannot carry him up 7 steps.

Last night and the night before R worked late and he's on nights, so Indy sat at the bottom of the stairs until 4am barking. On Monday night I half carried half dragged him up only to have him turn around and go right back down.

I'm getting maybe 2 hours of broken sleep every night.

I need to sleep! :mad:

Sorry guys. :o

Weird night. Let something get to me that shouldn't.

I'm okay now though.

Hey M, nice shoes... wannna....dance??

Blacky, how were my cookies?? :)

Still waiting for them... maybe they'll come tomorrow... hopefully before the weekend... I know they'll be good... :)

I could really use a cookie or two right now.

Darnit! Indy is barking again! I'll be right back. :(

Hey M, nice shoes... wannna....dance??

Blacky, how were my cookies?? :)

:confused: :confused: shoes?


Now I know the sort of cookies you've been eating bella :rolleyes:

Hahah M, have you never heard that poor pick up line? "nice shoes wanna... " I'll let you fill in the blanks.


Alty, sorry to hear about Indy. I bet he is feeling the loss of Independence too. Do you think he is just wanting to wait for R to come home?

Hahah M, have you never heard that poor pick up line?? "nice shoes wanna... " I'll let you fill in the blanks.




Naahh... normally I just get "nice Bone ........ wanna share" :cool:

Lol. Ok time for this poor cat to hit the sack.

Love you guys like the desert loves the rain



Lmao. Yes it is 2:50am... I am training for sleep deprivation torture. That's the best I could come up with.

Naahh ....................... normally I just get "nice Bone ........ wanna share" :cool:

Have you ever got "I wonder what your favourite position is"...

Hope that's not WT.. Maybe it is a little... oops...

Nite Bella :)

Hehehe... Ahhh M... where do you come up with these things... and pictures... you seem to have a picture for almost every occasion and topic..

M is our little doggie bomb. Okay, that sounds yucky. ;)

How about 'bomb doggity?'

how about 'bomb doggity?'

Much better. :)

Kittens have been using my extra bedroom as a litter box. Mostly behind the door. I went in there today and it was gross. I cleaned it up, sprayed the entire room down with vinegar, and shut it up. Put everything they've been pooping on in there until I get to the laundromat and wash it.

I opened the door not even 10 minutes after I shut the room up so I could put a couple more things in there. The vinegar fumes were so thick I could TASTE them. I think I went a little overboard, but at least it'll smell better after the vinegar smell leaves.

Got to love vinegar. So many uses. :)

Do you think just plain bi-carb (baking soda) would work?
I found a lovely accident in the bedroom today and it is borderline toxic.. there's no way I am sleeping in there tonight unless I can get the smell out... and I have no vinegar *cries*

It is now time to offer testemonials for the wonder spray - Febreze! I wish they'd pay me for all these commercials.

How come they are doing their business outside a litter box? Usually cats are really great at being clean that way. If you find kitty litter too expensive, cedar chips works well too. At least it did for one cat of mine years ago on the farm. In one of my very lean years, I even put earth in a litter box.

Tick

It is now time to offer testemonials for the wonder spray - Febreze! I wish they'd pay me for all these commercials.

I got kind of sick of the smell of febreze, not after cleaning up after animals, but just spraying it around to freshen the air. The lavender/comomile one is quite nice.

No, shaz, baking soda won't work for *****that******

LOL unfortunately I don't have any at the moment... it's 2:30am so a trip to the shop is out of the question :p

Cheers Tick, I was hoping.

I do have a floor steamer here but I'm not sure if it's safe to use on carpets... I could find out the hard way and just tell V I got sick of the carpet in the bedroom :D

I've used my steamer on carpet, it got stains out, but made the smell worse. Steamed urine doesn't smell good at all. :(

Steamer... OUT!

Ewww :p

Steamer..... OUT!

ewww :p

It really is ew. It burns the nostrils.

What else do you have in the house? Let's mix up a potion. :)

Find some lemons (I don't know why) and add some of the baking soda (don't know why) and then find some ashes (again, don't know why) and some seltzer water (?). Mix those together and lets see what happens. :)

I've had no sleep! Don't blame me, blame Indy. This is what happens when Alty is dead tired.

I have everything but seltzer water, because I have no idea what it is!

Carbonated water. ;)

You'd actually do it? You'd mix them? I'm going off 2 hours sleep Shazzy, don't trust me right now, you could blow up! :eek:

Ahhhhh OK... so soda water then :p

I'd give it a go, I don't have any carpet cleaning products because most of the house is floorboards.
Plus the bedrooms are sort of a brownish, yellowish vomit color anyway... I think anything I did would be an improvement.

I would give the carpet a scrub with laundry detergent. When it is dry, sprinkle the baking soda on it and vacuum.

Explosion possibility:?? :)

Explosion possibility: ?????? :)

At this point anything is possible. Explosion, corrosion, or the best cleaning product ever made. Won't know until Shazzy tries it. ;)

Oh look, the room is spinning! :(

Alty, I don't know who I feel worse for, you or Indy. Poor guy. Is he missing R?

Restless animals are VERY annoying.

Hmmm no offense Alty but I think I'll try Bellas suggestion first :p

Be back in a bit!

I'm just waiting for Altys next post to be cxv .m,nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc cccccc

Because she fell asleep on the keyboard.

Lol poor girl. And I thought I was training for sleep deprivation torture. I bow before her tiredness.

Alty, I don't know who I feel worse for, you or Indy. Poor guy. Is he missing R?

Restless animals are VERY annoying.

The problem is that he's too hot in the house. He likes to be in the garage, where it's cooler, but he doesn't want to be out there alone. So I'll go out, do some of my woodworking and stuff, but as soon as I go inside he starts barking. He won't come in.

Then, when he does come in, he goes to the basement because it's cooler down there. Then he realizes that I'm upstairs, wants to be with me, but can't get back up the stairs.

When R gets home he sits in the garage, watches TV, has a few smokes, so Indy is happy. So you, I guess he does miss R, in a way. ;)

Poor bugger. What about getting him a fan upstairs?

OR you could get those blue ice packs, and put a pillow over them. It might keep him cool?

I'm just waiting for Altys next post to be cxv .m,nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc cccccc

Shazzy, I willlllll notttttttttt faalllllll asleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ep at...

Huh? Where am I?

How long was I out? :confused:

My bed is calling me! Shut up bed! I have things to do! No, I can't do them later! Stop it! Shut up bed! Arrrrrrr.

:: poking Indy::

Ha, ha. I feel better. :)

Poor bugger. What about getting him a fan upstairs?

Have one. Also have a window air conditioner, just haven't put it in yet because I'm convinced that spring isn't stuck yet. It's only May, it will probably snow again before Spring springs eternal. ;)

I'm going to shave him. I usually do it every year, around June when it gets really hot, but I think I'll do it early this year. He's panting all the time, drinking tons of water. He's a really furry black dog. I'd be hot too if I had his coat.

I think I'll wait until I'm more awake before I shave him. It may not end well if I do it now. :eek:

Ha he might end up looking like a poodle. Will there be before and after pics?

Ha he might end up looking like a poodle. Will there be before and after pics?

Definitely! That will teach him. ;)

Okay dog experts, stupid question and remember that my brain is only functioning at 10% right now, so don't laugh and don't yell at me. ;)

Can I give Indy a sleeping pill, or a 1/4 of a sleeping pill, or anything to make him sleep at night? Chloroform, tea, eye of newt, tongue of bat? Seriously. If I have to go through one more night of this, one of us isn't going to survive. :(

I wouldn't give any human meds, but let me see if I can conjure up a home brewed natural relaxation potion.

There are drugs out there safe for dogs there are some herbal ones too, but with Indy I would ask your vet first to make sure.

I have some tablets here that a friend gave me that are herbal. I gave them to Cyrus before his last show and it make him very relaxed... unfortunately, they were given to me in a plastic zip bag so I don't know the name of them :rolleyes:

I wouldn't give any human meds, but let me see if I can conjure up a home brewed natural relaxation potion.

Oooh! I'm totally up for a home brewed natural potion. Does it involve seltzer water?

Maybe it can be a two for one, clean Shazzy's carpet and make Indy sleep. We could sell the stuff by the truck load.

Oi. Okay, I'm starting to get dizzy. I need some sleep. The bed won't stop calling and I think I'm going to listen to it. Around 6 hours of sleep in the last 3 days is taking it's toll on me. I'm old, I'm not well, I need my darn sleep!

If this keeps up I'll be gone long before Indy. OMG! Is that his plan? :eek:

:: poke, poke::

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Now he's awake. :D

Weeeeeee!

Later all. Maybe. ;)

Okay, the fact that I'm finding this amusing just shows how tired I am.

Nighty nighty. Sleepy time.

Okay, really? Now the bird is chirping at the top of her lungs! :(

Marty. Shhhhhhhhh! No, don't whistle back, just shut your beak.

I'm getting a hotel room for the weekend. That's what I'm going to do. Oh, better idea. I'll put up the tent trailer and sleep there this weekend. Camping on my driveway. Sounds good to me.

Later kids.

Lol cya later Alty, I'm probably going to bed once my carpets are dry, I have sprayed it with a hot water and 'linen fresh' washing powder mixture and I have a heater running in that room.

I like the idea of a 2 for one relaxer/cleaner... that way if the dogs sleep on the floor they are nice and mellow :D

Night Alty! :) Hope you get some sleep.

Hey Bella, the washing powder mix worked on the floor!

Now it smells all washing powdery lol better than dog pee though!

WooHOO!! That was a suggestion YOU gave to me :D

It works eh? I no longer buy carpet cleaners, laundry soap work awesome. If you have Arm and Hammor with baking soda in it, it is the bomb!

Gotta love vinegar. So many uses. :)

If only it worked. I'm about ready to strangle the little sh!ts for leaving little sh!ts all over my carpet.

Hheath, try laundry soap! :D

tick

I have a litter box, and it has kitty litter in it. I don't KNOW why the kittens prefer my carpet. The problem is, unless I CATCH them doing it, I can't punish them for it.

Hheath, try laundry soap! :D

Will that make them STOP using the floor? The vinegar gets rid of the smell. I just want them to STOP POOPING ON MY FLOOR!
