Oh when will it stop! This dog picked up more fleas than you can imagine. And they are making her sick. Her skin is bright bright red, she has chewed about five spots raw to the point of bleeding and she can't walk straight. I got a pair of scissors and started cutting her hair so I can at least have a fighting chance at catching the little bastards...which is almost impossible. So now she looks like a reject dog from a dump.
Monte went to the vet and picked up the right stuff for her but its taking forever to actually work. We have spent over a hundred dollars on shampoos, sprays and drops. So if any of you people out there in blogland are thinking of getting a dog....be prepared. Inevitably they get fleas now and then and its a HUGE pain in the ass, expensive and horrible for the dog. And now I am getting bitten and poor Willy (rabbit) will get them. What a nightmare. (shovel list)
I have been so busy the last few days. One day Kerry came up with Sue, my awesome handywoman. She removed the cabinet over the fridge and is cutting three inches off the bottom of it and reinstalling. That way I can go buy a decent refrigerator. (I swear I can feel a flea in my hair right now). I made a batch of cinnamon buns before they got here so we sat and visited and had coffee after they were done. Very enjoyable! The next day Kathy, Jo and Ainsley came for coffee and blueberries. Gotta keep blueberries in the freezer, ready for an Ainsley visit. She is nuts about them!
Yesterday (monday) I made Vietnamese spring rolls...only I made them caesar salad ones. I love working with rice paper...its fun. Last night I took them to the Kiwanis Radio Auction. Holy cats was that ever a hoot!!! Its so exciting! You sit there with the phones not ringing then suddenly there is a blast of bidding and it gets so intense and such fun! I loved it. We are doing it again tonight!
I have simply not had time to take pics of the next batch of dump stuff. I have a stack of it out there. But I am going to post this now and sometime today I will get out to the garage and take pics. TTYL
