Wednesday, and nothing rhymes with it

Greetings all!

I hope everyone has had a lovely, stressfree week so far??? No, well, sit back, relax, and don't drink or eat while reading my thoughts. I am not responsible for choking or gagging on food or drinks. (that sould satisfy my lawyer).

Today was a normal cranking out the work, day at the place of business. Good for me and my bills. :)

I told you all I had two guinea pigs, well, I just got the male, and last Friday he got his goodies cut so we won't have little baby piggies as gifts. As cute as they are, I don't need anymore, and my friends don't want them as Christmas presents. Just doing my part to keep the animal race from blossoming out of control. However, every time I see the Kia Soul ad, and the Hamsters are jamming with their bling and music, I can't help but think the world would be so cute. Anyway, Darwin, male piggy, is healing nicely from his sensitive surgery. And I've been giving him meds to keep him painfree and infection free. In order to do this, my vet suggested I wrap him up like a burrito. Now, when she first said that I was nodding my head and saying 'mmhm, mmhm' thinking to myself this woman is on crack. These animals are quite fast in movement and jerking. The first day my gal pal assisted me. I held him and she squirted the liquid into his tiny, and I do mean tiny mouth. Apparently, we had not wrapped him tight enough, as his head was twisting and jerking like he was going to spit Green Pea soup at us. Side bar: Neither of us worked at Taco Bell or Del Taco in our formative years, so we were clueless. I could have asked my Guatemalen neighbors, but the last time I saw them, they were getting high and I was mowing my yard. In a white tank, after hitting the sprinkler because it was so bloody hot. So you can see why I might hesistate to ask them over to my casa? But 4 days later, and I am the burrito queen. I almost want to have a Derby or Rodeo where "guinea pig rolling" is a feat. Good times. Now, before you all call PETA, Darwin was not harmed and I did roll him slowly for his protection.

This weekend we are traveling to Chattanooga for my mother's birthday celebration. My sister will be driving and my two offspring will be joining us. They are so much easier to travel with now as they are older. My "heir" has always been a dream on the road, but once you get to your destination, he won't sleep. The "spare" was a nightmare in a carseat, but once you reached your spot, he would sleep like the lamb he is. Another good with the bad scenario. I thoroughly enjoyed both of my sons as they were babies and toddlers. Pre-Teens? Eh, I could live without that again, but I am very proud of how caring, generous, helpful, smart and compassionate they both are. Of course no child is perfect, I don't care what my mother says. PIEW is her Perfect In Every Way. Whatever lady, no one is and not even I am. I know I am shockingly close, but agan, first borns do have their genius.

I of course, will jot down every memorable comment my kids, dad, mother make and share them with you. Hope everyone has a safe and cool air conditioned rest of the week.
