Stop Barking!

I can't believe it's February already? The other day, I was invited to a party on March 15th and I had to hesitate on my yes response because I realized my 1st year anniversary was on the 13th and I may be doing something the night of the party. I can't believe a whole year has gone by since the hoopla of Hawaii and Fiji!

The Hub & I have been mostly busy with work. We both have been working until 7-8pm each night.I am grateful the hubby is back on days though. When we aren't working we are cooking food, watching TV, reading books (he reads comics and I finally got to the last Harry Potter book) and trying to sleep.

I say trying because behind our house there are two dogs that constantly bark. The one dog is somewhere directly behind my house and the other is a few doors down. Guess when they decide to bark? At the convenient hour of 4AM. Apparently they have enough bark in them to last till 6AM. I can't imagine there are enough damn birds, squirrels or cats left for them to bark at! I am so used to waking up at 4AM I now just awake at that time and wait for the barking to begin. If you are a light sleeper like me you can imagine the complete and utter annoyance and rage I feel each day. It got so bad one day this week that I actually opened up the window and screamed at the dog. "Shut up dog! Stop barking." He actually listened to me and shut the hell up. I was hoping his owner would hear me scream and make him stop but the next day he was back to barking. I also called the police but they couldn't help me and gave me the number to animal control. I haven't called thinking there must be another way to deal with this. I really don't want to be a tattle tale but short of going over and smacking that dog myself I am not sure what to do? Maybe a letter? It worked with our noisy, convenience store, belling ringing, loud telephone ringing, neighbors at Noble.

I think one of the dog owner's goes to work early. Cuz the dog barks at the same time each day and he is so loud that the owner must not be there cuz surely he would hear him and control his pet. I hope that is the case cuz if I find out they let their dog bark for two hours straight I will have to open a can of whoop ass. The only other thing I can think of is that the neighbor is older and hard of hearing. Anyhoo, each day I investigate a little bit more. Its hard to pinpoint because of the large walls in all all of our backyards and I don't know what street is behind my backyard. I need to find the street but I can't cuz I am so busy with work!

I used to like dogs but now after these yappers won't shut up I am a little bitter against the dog race. If you are a dog I will give you a million doggie treats if you come over to my house and speak to the two mutts yapping their brains off. I am so frustrated I am about to pelt the beasts with oranges and lemons. I got so many they might as well go to some good use, like knocking a dog quiet.

Vaccine Part 1

As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen.  If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public.  Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me.  Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....

Random Thoughts as the Weekend Closes

Today I got a friend request from my mother-in-law. Will she embrace the FaceBook? We wait and see. Technology is cool...I got to speak to my friend in Hong Kong today. The BlindSide is a really heartwarming and good movie. I didn't know what to expect. I saw Sandra in blond hair and I thought cheesy. Now I can't decide whether I want her or Meryl to win the Oscar. Cats are really nice creatures. I haven't really had much exposure to one before. I especially like the fact that you can hold them like babies. I wonder if I stole Mr. Chuckles if anyone would notice? hum. Bartenders blowing fire makes for an interesting drink at the bar. Plantains are better when they come with your meal and not as an appetizer. I met a man who wanted to see Leap Year. Krueger continues to take jobs that suck ass and take up her precious time. Sorry CougarTown screwed ur day up Krugs. We missed u at the movies today. Ever since I got Mo I have meet the most interesting people ...

7th Birthday

Mark ur calendars, Dec 12 is an awesome day to go to Disneyland! There was no one at the park yesterday morning. We had 3 amazing hours 8am to 11am to ride! Some Disneyland records we set yesterday:  ✅A After many years, we finally got a wristband (and bought) a giant Disneyland candy cane.  ✅F First people on pirates of the carribean.  ✅ Line for Indiana Jones was 10 minutes long  😳  This never happens and we sat next to the people (strangers) who sat next to us on pirates b ut we did not walk over to the ride with them. ✅ By a fluke, we were also the first people on Big Thunder Mountain and kiddo rode in the cart by herself! (They opened late and we were in the right spot) ✅Kiddo  rode front seat on Matterhorn because a kind guy, his first visit, said he was too tall to sit in front and she wouldn’t be able to see sitting behind him ✅ Prode space mountain for the first time and huffed that it wasn’t scary and it was no IncrediCoaster. And the line...
