Life with the Two Crazy Dogs

Nadine and Mark dropped by this afternoon for a chat with DB about their little business they started in March.  DB is not involved in the business but they do involved him when it comes to the PC and networking stuff for their little office where DB did helped them set up their business PC’s with a business performance management software that Mark bought.  Knowing Nadine, she would prefer DB to chip in with whatever knowledge he has on the investment stuff that he had learned for the past six months.  It’s funny to see her nudging her hubs to sort of shut-up and let DB speak.  DB told me they do give him some sort of monies for his help which it should be.

A coworker of mine found out she is pregnant with a problem.  When she told me about the news I knew she would be stressed to the max.  The reason was she is seeing guys at the same time and is not sure which is father of the child.  The only thing I could tell her was to do a DNA testing and check with the insurance how much it would cover for this sort of testing.   The test would identify who the father is of the baby and then she would have to tell that guy and the other guy, too.  Lord, what a mess!

Having the young-un, Chase around the older boys is doing them good especially so with Cooper.  Both of them will try to initiate the play and they will be at it for 10 to 15 minutes.  Taking Chase for his walks is definitely working out for me.   I walk fast and he will keep up with my pace, but at times he will be flying.  I know each time I am out walking with Chase, my heart rate increases.  It will be nice if I could get a pulse oximeter to check my heart and pulse rate.  I know for sure I feel better when I speed walk.

I had my eyes checked three weeks ago with another doctor.  My usual doc was all booked up.  My eye sight is getting worse which I noticed it when I was at work working on the humoungous spreadsheets.  I decided to go in for a check when I could not read the numbers on my co-worker’s monitor.  I wanted to get  Lasik surgery a few years ago but no can do.  The prescription for my left eye were too high to even consider this procedure.  Anyways, this different doc Stout did a horrible job in fitting my contacts.  I am suppose to see out with these new contacts, but all I could see were blurry things.  I’m now scheduled to see my regular doc next week.  What a disaster that was.

The neighborhood is having another round of garage sales.  This time around there are 7 houses are participating.  Our neighbor asked us if we want to join in with him, I do not feel like digging up our junk covered with several inches of dust.  I wanted to go around the sales and look for some light fixtures for our outdoor lights.  I might do that later, maybe tomorrow.  But then the thought of spending money again is keeping me away from these sales. 

Yes, I am talking about Chase, the little fella.  He had the worse Hershey sprays ever last night or could be very early this morning while we were still sleeping.  There were poop sprays on the walls, carpets, rugs and patio door, from the dining room to the executive office.  We still could not figure out why he does not whine to let us know he wants out like how the other will do when they need to got out urgently.  DB woke up and smelled the wonderful smell of “fresh flowers”.  He spent the whole day getting the stains/smell out, vacumm and then shampoo the carpets again.  So much stress for me even I was not doing the cleaning.  Why?  Because of the smell that is still lingering in the house, stress which give me all the zits I don’t want.  Soon I will need to get acne treatments for my zits if I am not going to de-stress myself and also if Chasey boy won’t stop licking me all the time.  He has this licking addiction in him that is not going away.  Anyways, I am going to sprink more baking soda on the spots where he did his emergency tomorrow, let them sit for an hour and then vacumm.

I bought some plain t-shirts from the craft store last week and what am I going to do with them?  I am going to get some airbrush and paint for my friend’s kid, Gina.  I told her I would get some for her last month but I spaced it right out until yesterday I was at the craft store I remembered it.  Gina is only 9 years old but she is so artistic.  She is able to draw and paint at an early age.  She wanted to draw her designs on t-shirts, paint them and sell them for her cousin’s fund raising who is now in the hospital recovering from severe burns.  Thoughtfulness from a young-un.

Went to work this morning to find out one of my coworker’s brother is suffering from cancer.  All of us in the office did not know where she went to for the past 3 weeks.  It turned out she had to take care of her brother who the docs diagnosed him of cancer from mesothelioma.  His brother used to handle asbestos in his job.  All the dust he was breathing into his lungs is now making him so sick.  He is now in his second chemotherapy and will see how the treatment goes, he will have to go through radiation, too.
