it is the best word to describe today.
- I did not stay in the budget at Yarn-to-Go's Christmas in July sale
- I did not get as much done packing wise as I had planned
- I am not getting a new Feeling Doctor, instead I am going 3 times a year to the current guy
- I am not on any new meds, nor did we adjust any current ones
- I am not dog-sitting anytime in the near future
- I will not have the current dog I am sitting in a confined space ever again
- Especially not when said space is my car
- Unless I am able to do some serious sweet-talking, I will not be having a going-away party at Stash next week
the dog I'm caring for while its owner is away is a big, smelly, overweight, under-groomed lab. The Maternal Grandmother, upon hearing the living conditions of the dog (garage with outside tempters over 100 degrees Fahrenheit, wanted me to bring the beast to our house. I did not think that would be a good idea, but I had her put all our animals inside. Out voted, I fetched said dog. It took the Maternal Grandmother 15 minutes to realize that the dog would be better of not chained to the fence in our shaded, small waterfeatured backyard (which dog swam in). Once inside the house, she came to the conclusion that the dog would tear up her garden. The dog's owner called and offered a few suggestions as to the dog's care for the next day and a half. I then took the dog back to its house (tempter was cooler) and nearly gagged on both legs of the trip.
before 5 of the clock, my day was excellent. After 5, it has been horrid.
