Let me count the ways...1. They can grow plants outside, that I have a hard time keeping alive inside in VT. 2. Palm trees and tropical, odd looking trees / plants. 3. Clean cars 4. Driving fast on the interstate. 5. Pools everywhere 6. Disney World. What don't I like? 1. No RQ 2. No Dixie.
Speaking of the wonderful Ms. Dixie. I was headed to the airport this morning and just before I put her inside to leave...I decided to pet her a whole bunch. I felt a bump on her left upper leg and wondered why she would be scratching. I mean, she is a happy cat...I looked closer and saw a TICK!! I busted into my suitcase (which was already in the car) and got out the tweezers...I pulled that blood sucker out of my sweet Dixie. She did not seem to mind one bit. I have since arrived in FL and almost had a panic attack around 6pm...when I started reading about cats and ticks on the internet. Be advised: Once again...do not look up diseases or anything of the sort on the internet. Especially when you are far away and can take no action. Hopefully Dix has not contracted any odd diseases from this vicious tick and will be with us for many years to come. She is going to the doctors office on Wednesday or Thursday to be sure she is okay.
Well...RQ's birthday is on Wednesday. He is excited and we celebrate birthdays for a full week. I am flying back to VT tomorrow night, just to ensure I am home for his birthday. What kind of cake you ask? Ricky wants Peanut Butter cake with chocolate frosting and RQ wants chocolate cake with Peanut Butter frosting. Amazing...and I asked them separately...on two different days. Happy Birthday Baby!! I asked him for one reason why he loves me so much...given I am mean to him most of the time (its just my nature...nothing personal). He said...I miss you terribly when you are gone. I could hear it in his voice earlier today...I think it makes him sick when I go away. Poor baby..poor Dixie. I hope they are both well tonight. Peace out..and take a shower you yappy dog.

Jeremy doesn't miss me at all - for about 3 days. Then he loses his mind.
ReplyDeleteTravis misses me when he has to make his own coffee and lunch. But Mokey always misses me. Do you give Dixie flea and tick stuff regularly??
