Looking For Control Freaks & Worry Warts too (Part 2)

[karajeboo]

OK, what is up with this dog! Now we see that he had chewed a hole in Ally's princess blanket!! Seriously, I'm so glad that the coffee table was not expensive (but it's still gonna have to be repaired - cause I am not buying a new one!). I did buy a new area rug for the family room - got it at Target... cheap! And I like it better than the other one I had!

Cammie are you getting rain too?

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Hi Laura! Wally World! I thought we were the only ones who said that! We are okay here except on Sundays when the farm workers come in - it gets really really crowded, and the day before anything major. They used to do layaway, and the day before they were all due at Christmas was crazy.

 

[Camster0307]

It's pouring right now, with thunder and lightning.

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Kara, that's weird that your dog is chewing now - is he bored maybe? Maybe he misses Fred and Ethel or whatever their names are?

 

[soontobewed07]

No wally world for me either I just can't stand it I would rather pay a little more than fight with the crowds.I will only go on a tuesday morning before 10am other than that you can find me at target

My sis let her cert expire - her DH is kind of a jerk - doesn't want her working, yet complains that she doesn't. He's very old fashioned and feels that HE should be in charge, etc.

But they do help us with a lot of questions we have. ALTHOUGH my sister is the biggest hypochondriac known to man. When she was studying for her EMT cert, every chapter she was on, she got the symptoms!!! Seriously, she called 911 4 times in a month cause she was hyperventilating. Then twice because she thought she was having a heart attack. I went to her room and found her textbook and found the chapter - heart.

And she literally takes her kids to the ER for a cough. I'm not exaggerating. She said it's because they know her and her husband and they get seen quicker. No wonder our healthcare costs are through the roof!

She's my best friend but drives me nuts!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

I saw the Little League World Series was rain delayed - there must be alot of rain out in the East

 

[soontobewed07]

Kara- do you have a KONG for him? It stopped my mom's dog from being destructive.

 

[soontobewed07]

We are the opposite Mike and I don't ever go to the ER. For Badookie we only go if he has had a fever for more than 3 days and then we only go to the Pedi never the ER

 

[karajeboo]

YES! He loves his kong, and also his nylabone. I got him a kong for "aggressive chewers." And he's had it forever and plays with it all the time.

I don't know what got into him - I thought he was over the chewing stage!

 

[karajeboo]

Jillian you are obviously more responsible than my sister. With her we said the expression "a little knowledge can be dangerous" fits her perfectly.

Seriously, if I get a headache, she tells me I need a CT scan! I'm only half kidding!

 

[soontobewed07]

Hmm strange. Maybe he needs a playmate?

 

[karajeboo]

My dad said that she was spending the night with them last night cause she had some doctors appts in town (my folks live about 45 mins away) and I asked my dad what new disease she developed?

She has mitral valve prolapse (supposedly) and celiac disease (supposedly) and some other stuff that I can't even think of! As for celiac disease, if I'm not mistaken don't you have to cut out gluten? Not her. She said that her body doesn't get any vitamins. Um, wouldn't she be really sick? But she said she couldn't go without bread so she couldn't follow the diet.

I really think she has developed these diseases to get attention from her DH - who's a jerk. Seriously.

 

[karajeboo]

I told Jeff I wanted another dog. That conversation ended quicky!

 

[karajeboo]

Hey Cammie!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

What kind of dog do you want? I would love a little boxer or Chinese pug, but Jim says no way.

 

[karajeboo]

Whatcha drinkin?

 

[karajeboo]

Oh Tammie, I grew up with a pug and they are the BEST dogs!!! But Brutus was a little craphead as a puppy - chewed a LOT!

 

[karajeboo]

Buckeye is a chow/lab mix. I was nervous about the chow, when we found the black spot on his tongue. But now his tongue is all speckled black. And he definitely has the lab personality - sweet, cuddly dog! Love him! And he looks more like a dark yellow lab. With a curled tail.
