Well...so much for being optimistic , I just got a text from the young lady about Missy..
."Hey! I am so sorry ! I can't get the dog because I have to be out of town to take care of my sick nephew. Again I am so sorry"
Lol, and my dog ate my homework
My goodness...people crack me up, .....can't you just say "I changed my mind" , lol......I will keep the ad up, but Missy just may end up staying right here, ...I will adjust things to make it all work to the best of my ability....and deal with issues as they happen..

Seriously...what a dumb excuses...if you want a dog...even if your nephew is sick..you come a different day to get a pet that’s going to be with you the rest of it’s life!! Ugh!! Well...I’m glad Missy is not going there!!

"Hey! I am so sorry ! I can't get the dog because I have to be out of town to take care of my sick nephew. Again I am so sorry"

I guess she's planning to be gone a LONG time taking care of the nephew

I love what you said to that Dr.'s office help. I don't understand why they always overbook. It's not like they're an airline or something. I used to have to wait two hours to see my ob/gyn when I was pregnant with Kid#2. I was too meek back then to kick up any dust. Wouldn't happen these days I guarantee it.

 

[Bruce]

That is pretty darn unforgivable. Understandable if some emergency came in and pushed people back but the dog??

Oh my go

Went to do our errands then to the eye Dr...last time I went it was over a two hour wait.....this time I waited 40 minutes after checking in , then went to the office person and asked where I was as far as wait time, she said that there were five ahead of me......just then the dr. came around the corner and called his new dog out to come meet a patient he was with...
I told her that I was going to go home while he played with his dog and might call to reschedule the apointment... .kindly pass the message on to him please.
Fortunately I see my eye surgeon next week and he can tell me how it is healing. .....
On the way home we stopped to help a woman who was trying to catch a beagle who had just been thrown out on the side of the road, poor thing was frightened and wouldn't come to her, I walked up to him and picked him up and put him in her car so she could get him to a vet, he was covered with ticks, ... no open wounds ...but clearly needed care.
We need to put this county in our rear view mirror and move, we both are finally certain we don't want to be here and need to get our butts moving before its too late for us .....

od..first...what a terrible time at the doctors...next, I can’t believe you had the guts to walk out!! I would have never been able to do that!! I would have apologized for taking up the dog’s chair or room in the isle, etc? and definitely..thank you sooo much for helping the lady with the beagle!! I would have done the same thing!! Poor thing!! I didn’t realize there are a lot of ticks down there? Bugs, yes...ticks...no...? Well...I hope, at least the end of your day made the other parts made up for the beginning.

Maybe Missy will love Winston. Paris the psycho B!tch who has been an attack dog all her life, fell in love with Sentry, our puppy. So if it can happen with Paris, maybe it will happen with Missy.

I'm generally quite non confrontational but in Barb's case after sitting there for 2 hours, not even next in line and then to see the dog issue, I might just have loudly proclaimed so that the doctor and everyone in the place could hear: "My appointment was 2 hours ago, I've been sitting here patiently but if playing with the dog is more important than the patients then maybe the doctor should call me at home when it is my turn and he can wait until I get here".

We shall see how things go friday when Winston arrives here at his new home .

Maybe if all the other dogs see Missy as the 2nd in command after Alpha Barb, things will go fine.

 

[Bruce]

I can't move or lift her and she is sensing it, I fear SHE wants to be the alpha over all of us.....and that won't work at all,

 

[Bruce]

.... also mentioned that we are tired of picking up our road as much as we can and certainly can not clean up the entire county by ourselves.
Hopefully this will get something going ....

Sadly, my guess is what you will get going is a lot of people No money or people to clean up the roads or they would presumably be doing it already.

I suppose it is possible people up this way are less trashy than those in your area though we do have some that think an open vehicle window is a better place to throw trash out than a trash can or dumpster. You do see stuff on the side of the road and I'm sure some of it blows out of the backs of pickup trucks.

I once saw someone at a red light open their car window and throw a potato chip bag out. Then there was the AH on the interstate with no moving traffic due to an accident up ahead. Door opened and he emptied his ashtray onto the ground. He's the same guy who actually STOPPED to take a picture of the accident site when we got up to it. I was directly behind him. If I didn't care about my car, his might have been moving without action on his part.

Do you have "Green up day"? Here one day in the spring the state provides green bags and people collect the refuse and leave the bags on the side of the road to be collected.
