Boys and their beds!

Comments Off

Since it got so cold in the house, I noticed the dogs were laying only on the rugs and not the carpets. So I brought out the two old dog beds and right away Chase and Cooper booked them as theirs. Poor Ranger being the old mellow fella, continued to lay and sleep on the rugs which i stack them up to make it thicker. Then I got a brilliant idea, I thought so. I brought out two of our spare pillows in the closet, one a feather and the other a don’t know what poly-thing-filled using one of the boys’ old fleece throw to cover the pillows. Ranger sorta laid on it but he itched like mad. Duh, then the light bulb went on!!! He is allergic to feathers except cotton and don’t know what other fiber.

Last Saturday, I bought a new dog bed for Ranger at Sams Club. Cheap for the price of an xtra large bed. Brought it home they didn’t even bother to lay on it. Just gave a sniff and walked away, but when evening came when dinner and snacks were all done, I saw one of the boys were not with me. Went looking around and saw this fella there:  Cooper

Two days later, Chase was smart….he went in there right away after his snack. Sleeping like a baby after an hour of fetching.

This was where Chase suppose to sleep, on the blue bed. Red bed is Cooper’s. So now since Chase sleeps on the big ass bed, Cooper sleeps on the red one, leaves the blue one left but Ranger is so nice. When he sees Cooper sleeping on the red bed, he will not walk past Cooper’s bed to the empty bed. So considerate of him!!! Hahahaha!

Anyways, I do bring the blue bed out closer to the door and he will sleep there.

Sun and snow

Yesterday was the longest drive home ever for me since I started with company. It took me 1 hour 15 minutes to get home which normally takes 25 minutes max.   It started snowing early Thursday morning and by the time it was time to get home at 2:30 pm, snow was lighter and the sun was outl.  Really weird.

There was an accident on 35E South the freeway I use Monday thru Friday back and forth.  The moment I took the exit to 35E South, I came to a halt.  Me and other cars ahead of me sat there for about 15 minutes before we actually made a tiny move.  Good thing I took a pee before I left work.

So what you do when you sit in the car with n0thing to do…take pictures lah.  Don’t have my camera with me, so have to use the phone camera.  Not good pictures tho.   While taking pictures, tow trucks, State troopers and city cop cars’ zoomed by the shoulder of the freeway. When I finally got out to 35, the battle to merge with the cars already in the lane….hate that but this nice old man let me in….bless his kind heart.

Sat there for another couple mintues and finally started to creep/brake till I saw the colorful flashing lights from the cop cars and that’s where the cars in front me merged to the left lane (middle lane).  Put on the blinkers but no one let me in…..of coz I started cussing lah, KNN!!!  Finally after 4 vehicles passed me, a lady stopped to let me merge.  So sweet of her….bless her kind heart! :)

After this shot, I dared not take anymore….cops were everywhere plus sirens firing behind me – paramedics, fire truck and more paramedics. As soon as I got closer to the accident scene, it looked mighty nasty, I recognized the spot where accidents always occur. It’s the bend before Difley Road exit. Must be a “bad” spot! :)   Cantonese word “chaay”, with a descending tone.  Don’t know, I saja only.

The accident involving a tanker (don’t see any damage on that sucker); a Toyota pickup with the windshield and passenger window totally shattered; a car sitting in the ditch with the front bumper and hood smashed like a pancake; and another car sitting up in the tow truck bed with damage to the back and front bumpers and smashed windshield. I didn’t see any people in those said vehicles.

Of course after car passed by the accident scene, traffic it was flowing freely!!! GAWKERS!!!! There were also 2 more cars on the South side of the freeway in ditches and 1 more on the North. These cars must be going fast. I tried going 50+ mph and the Monte was already fish tailing.  So had to go 45 mph.

Needless to say when I got home, I had to park the car on the street and my workout began….clearing the 3 inches of snow. Bah!!!  The car could not even go all the way up, stucked half way on the driveway.
