It's not so much the plants you have to worry about, it's the neighbors that complain that your son is pulling down his pants in public so he can urinate, even though the bathroom is only a few short steps away.

It was our own fault. We went on vacation to Penticton. Jared was 4. It's around a 12 -14 hour drive. Jared hadn't been potty trained for long so we made sure to stop often so he could use the bathroom. The thing is, he's like me. Once he gets into a car he drives himself batty wondering if there will be a bathroom around when you need it. As a result he had to pee every 1/2 hour and there wasn't always a bathroom around. So we taught him to pee in the bushes on the side of the road.

It worked pretty well, until we got home. :(

Hello Alty:

I didn't know women peed. I thought they were pure. For sure, I know they don't fart.

Lol, the same was for me long ago... when we were on quite long trips, from home to seaside for example, or to pick little red guavas from a quite far away place.

She's going to kill you for telling over 600,000 people that she farts and it really stinks. :eek:

Nah, I won't be showing her that thread. Once she saw JBeaucaire's little animated plane in her sig, and she asked me 'What game are you playing, huh? How many times do I have to tell you not to play?'

:rolleyes:

The one everybody's forgotten:

The dog likes to sleep on top of the bedclothes.

The dog likes to pee on the bedclothes. :(

Another one:

Dogs and bunk beds don't mix.

The bunk needs to be against the wall and Jared should sleep against it. That way the dog can have the rest of the bunk. At least that's how my dog explained it to me as he stretched out.

Jared isn't the problem actually. It's Sydney.

Both kids have a bunk bed, but not one with two beds, it's only an upper bunk, that way we can put things underneath and maximize the space. The bedrooms are really small. :(

Anyway, Sydney decided that Chewy should play with her on the bunkbed, so she got Jared to lift him up to the top. He loves it. He goes crazy when you put him on the bunkbed. The thing is, he got bored and jumped. :(

A vet trip and a clear bill of health with a strict warning to never do it again. There's $300 I'll never see again. ;)

Oh, you're right, top bunks and dogs don't mix well at all.

Exactly.

This would never have happened if I had been on Mom duty that day. Sadly I was at work and hubby didn't notice what was going on until Chewy jumped.

It's not a really high bunk, but still high enough that Chewy really could have gotten hurt.

Thankfully he's okay. Sydney learned her lesson, as did Jared, so I know it won't be happening again.

Maybe I should build a slide for the bed, then Chewy can go where he loves to go and slide down when he's done.

Good idea? Terrible idea? I'll have to think about it.

Sydney would LOVE an escape slide!

The thing that may hamper this idea is the lack of space. Sydney's room is tiny. Extremely tiny. The whole reason we bought the bunk was to give her more space. A slide would take away from that space.

I'll have to think about the best way to do it. It would be cool though. :)

I wonder if her bunkbed can hold me? If I'm putting in a slide then I have to be able to use it.

Wheeeee! :)

I had bunkbeds when I was younger, I slept on top, the great Dane slept on the bottom, until one night she had her pups early on the bottom bunk :eek:
I kept hearing squeeking for days afterwards panicking there would be one stuck somewhere in the bed!

Dogs sleep under the bedcovers as soon as you get out of bed. They prefer beds that are prewarmed up for them.

Dogs will happily puke in your bed under the covers. Usually on clean covers as well.

Pouty dogs will poop in the house right where they know you will happily tromp in during the night in your bare feet. They secretly get their kicks knowing you'll hit their land mines.

One dog and one boy with a shovel can happily dig a hole in the backyard deep enough to get lost in during an 8 hour day. Then happily fill it up with water and make a muddy mess.

Cast off microwave oven, kid with electrical cord and dog cowering in far corner of yard not wanting to get too close to the kid microwaving GI Joes, screwdrivers, full cans of beer, steak knives, vice grips, and everything else not nailed down including himself.

All true. Happened to me.

Sounds like happy kids

My son grew up to be a happy, healthy, and believe it or not, well adjusted man. Personally I am surprised that I survived his childhood.
