- I fell asleep this morning for a nap while I was reading the news about SecretaryHagel resigning. Made for some very interesting dreams.
- I’m proud to say that the Senate confirmed my nomination in a very bi-partisan vote. I was looking forward to leading and serving our armed forces in this crucial time when Irish Woman woke me up.
- Irish Woman was planning on having a quiet evening at home with the children. That didn’t happen.
- First, she got a call from one of her cousins, who had found a small labrador-ish dog running around. Being the suckers animal lovers that we are, we agreed that it would be a good idea to go get her.
- I met the new dog when I got home. Little girl, looks like a pure-bred black lab or really close. Very malnourished. Looks to be between 4 and 6 months old. Appears to be house broken and responded to the leash when we took her out to use the lawn. Very personable and obviously socialized to people and other dogs.
- She already has an appointment at our vet on Wednesday to get checked out. Until then she’s will spend most of her time away from the other dogs.
- Best case scenario is that she has a registered chip and we can reunite her with her family. That’ll break Boo’s heart, because he’s already claimed her and named her.
- Failing that, I guess we’re back to having three dogs.
- I don’t want to think about worst case scenario.
- Next, Irish Woman discovered why the dogs we already had were coming in so muddy these past few days. You see, at the back of our property, there is a dip right at the fence. That dip tends to accumulate water from snow and rain in the winter. The dogs have been pacing it, and the reason became evident when Irish Woman looked over the fence and saw that some animal had made a den just on the other side.
- I was thinking it was probably rabbits or some such, but no such luck.
- Irish Woman and Girlie Bear found out what it was when the dogs slipped their leashes and headed right over to the den to investigate. The new neighbor skunk met Moonshine and Bluegrass at his front door and doused them something fierce. Unfortunately, nobody noticed until the dogs were in the house, so right now, my home smells like skunk and Febreeze. I’ll be hitting the pharmacy tomorrow for a couple of bottles of peroxide to try to soak this out of them.
- Oh well, I needed to rotate stock in the first aid kit anyway.
