In the midst of chaos and stress, PC never ceases to amaze me. He is one of the most caring and thoughtful individuals I have ever known.

I received another email from him today:

"If I could pick just one moment from all the days that I've lived and keep it fresh in my memory, I'd pick the moment I met you..."

We just finished going to the court house to get our marriage license. The State of North Carolina says since we paid our $50, we can now get hitched. Why do we need a license though? Why charge a fee to get married? Don't we pay enough with the marriage tax with the IRS? If anything, they should require a compatability test before you get married. Either way, I know PC and I would pass with flying colors. We were made for each other and I am truly blessed to have him in my life.

Pooping with a Purpose

I did not have too much time yesterday to tell you about the previous time Lefty had taught T1 a much needed lesson about taking him outside. Let me preface this by saying that my son likes video games. Well, perhaps that is an understatement. Anyways, one time Lefty was standing by the front door and needed to go outside. That is his usual spot. He will sit by the front door and just stare you down until you see him and take him outside to go. Well, this one time my son just walked right past him and went to play video games and ignored him sitting there waiting to be taken out. When T1 got up from his video games to go pee himself, Lefty went in the play room and gingerly and strategically squatted on top of T1's Playstation controllers. Lefty had managed to drop turds directly on top of each one of the controllers and nothing else. Not the carpet or anything else. Just on T1's video game controllers. So T1 comes in from using the bathroom and screams that the dog shit on my controllers.

Of course, I came running upstairs to see what he was yelling about. I was amazed at the precision accuracy of the poop which he had dropped right on each of his controller. You had to admire that!! I just stood there with utter amazement and looked at T1 and asked him when the last time he took the dog out was and didn't he see him down stairs earlier by the door. T1 responded at the time that wanted to play video games first and do what he wanted to do. Apparently, the dog had other things in mind and did what he needed to do to drive home his point. Once again teaching a lesson without destroying any of mom's things. tee hee.

Gotta love him.

I gotsa go poop!!

My dog Lefty is the best and smartest dog in the whole world. I know others of you think your dogs are the best and yadda yadda, but you're wrong. Lefty also has a sense of humor, rare for a canine.

It's my son's job to take out the dog, feed the dog and otherwise clean up after him. He gets paid for this job and pretty much does is faithfully on a daily basis. However, there are times when he gets busy, gets off track and ignores the dog. Last night was one of those nights. Apparently my son only took Lefty outside after he got home from school but never took him out again for the rest of the evening. So here we are trying to move some furniture around in DQ's room and set her room up a bit and Lefty was hanging out with us and then exited the room. All of a sudden we hear from the boy's room "Lefty's peeing on T1" "Oh my God". I rounded the corner to see what was going on and I see Lefty standing on top of T1, just starring down on him and peeing on him in the middle of his bed. Here he was just straddling him and starring him down and relieving himself with a purpose. I just knew what he was thinking. "So, you think you can go to bed and leave me to hold my pee until tomorrow morning, do ya? Well, I've got news for you big boy."

T1 was like, what are you going to do about it? I told him nothing. He admitted he had not taken the poor dog out since around 3pm and I certainly don't blame the dog. No one was downstairs to see him at the door and what was he to do? I am just glad that the cdog lose T1 rather than my new carpet. That would have sucked.

It is amazing what lessons Lefty can teach without saying a word. Yes, I washed the bedding last night and it's all clean now. Nothing got past the top sheet.

Today's Message

We have been so very busy lately and I have had a million things to do and not enough time to do it all. But the following is an email I got from my PC this morning. See, this is the reason I love him. I am one lucky woman!!!

I am Flippin Tired!!!

Well, we are all moved in and I must say two things. One, I am really really tired. Two, I have alot of "stuff". It took a 26' truck and a 17' truck to get all my stuff moved. That's right, just MY stuff and I actually ran out of room and had to leave a few things at the house still. Pretty pathetic. I really am not a pack rat person though. I have a place for everything and everything in it's place motto. I don't have a cluttered house. I just have alot of stuff that I have accumulated over the years. Probably more so that anyone I know. I need sleep.
