It's alive, it is alive!
Hi there. Yep, I'm still breathin'. Altho one might question if someone had died at Camelot. There are blood stains everywhere, including on my two page "to do list". At 5 o'clock in the morning yesterday my Fuzzies decided to get into a major scrap with each other. While laying on the ground trying to hold one dog with my feet and another in each hand I took quite a beating.
Managed to hobble to work and my boss took one look at me and sent me home. My left hand is mostly out of action so it would have been a chore holding onto a hoc anyway.
Part of my "to do list" included planting some more flowers so I decided not to waste the time and went to a local greenhouse. Ha ha I didn't notice that a couple of my wounds had started seeping again until I saw how the clerk was looking at me. Nothing like having blood running down your arm to promote respect from a cashier. I probably could have walked out without paying. Never heard so many "yes sirs" in my life. Have you ever tried to dig a hole with only one hand?
Anyway.... I've been busy, busy. Getting ready for the party next Saturday and trying to get Camelot cleaned up from a nasty hailstorm last week. No real damage but a lot of branches and leaves lying about. Still need to sweep up some of the putt putt golf course. Have you ever tried to sweep with only one hand?
Here is the invitation to the party. If you're in the neighborhood next Saturday, stop by. Hmmm speaking of the putt putt course, I need to redo the sand traps. Have you ever tried to push a wheelbarrow of sand with only one hand?
I'll try to get caught up with my FF watched list next week.
Busy, busy. .................................................

You sound like you came off worse than the fighting doggies. I used to take my cat to the vet for her yearly shots and I came out more bandaged than she did. I gave up after that...she don't get shots no more.
Glad to see you around still James. Your absense has been noted and your excuse accepted. 
Hugs your way  
Sir_T replies on 6/16/2008 5:28 am: Poor Zula has a nasty wound on one ear. She is the Alpha dog and would have no trouble whipping either of the other two one at a time but when I was holding her and one of them apart the other would take advantage. I think if it ever happens again I'll just hold one of them and let her show the other whose boss.
I definately took the brunt of the battle. My body looks like a road map in red ink |

Sir_T replies on 6/16/2008 5:39 am: Ha ha. You sound like Joanie. She kept telling me to tone down the plans. No way. I have a friend driving a long way to be here and I'm going to make sure she remembers this for a long time. Other then all of the Daddy Long Legs spiders in my bathroom.
Darned Joanie scheduled herself to work Saturday and now is going to have to call off sick. Hmmmm since she is the manager I wonder if she has to call herself? She has been a little blah on the party but I talked to her last night and she is starting to get jazzed. |

are you sure those were doggies and not lions? Dripping blood all around, sounds dreadful ... you should stop a bit until the wound is closed, otherwise you will miss the party. The party, the party, how I wish a party  
Sir_T replies on 6/16/2008 5:46 am: Still trying to clean up blood stains. Seems like there are drops everywhere.
Nah, I'm a tuff old bird. (and stubborn too) I'd have to be dead to miss it. Gonna get everything as close to perfect as possible.
Still time to book a flight. |

well Sir when you had two good hands and the doggies were at it shouldn't you have grabbed them both up by their necks and look them in the eye and dare them to continue? hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, don't know about dogs but it worked with my kids my two oldest were back to back a year and eight days apart hmmmmmmmmm guess I should of been nicer?  lol, NOT! peace,lisa
Make luv & war will be extinct! Stop the hate!
Sir_T replies on 6/24/2008 7:41 pm: Ha ha Did that. But there are three doggies. That left me one hand short and that was when things got interesting 'cause two were ganging up on one. I threw my half dressed bod into the middle of the skirmish and tried to hold one of them with my feet. But they are pretty big dogs, about 80 pounds and were worked into a frenzy.
Betcha it would have been an entertaining video |
