Some things are just not meant to be

After the "happy homecoming" I got on Saturday and then the disaster of a walk on Sunday, and having to drive back up on Monday morning I just wanted to relax this week. It was not to be.



Savie and hubby went to bed early last night, around 8pm, so I was able to watch a lot of the shows that I had on DVR. (Click over here or here to see what I've watched so far) Well after Sat. night I am a little jumpy about noises outside so when I heard something fall last night I was a little scared to look out the window to see what it was. I was hoping it was just something falling in the shower. I looked in the bathroom, in the shower and...........nothing. Still didn't want to look outside so I went back to watching Dexter. When I did finally look outside what did I see????

A SKUNK!!!!!!!!!!! ON THE TABLE SAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes a skunk up on my husbands table saw. I watched him for about 15 minutes while he crawled around on top and then back down off the table. Why oh why was my camera in the car? LOL I'm sure by now a lot f you are thinking that I'm this stuff up and trust me I wish I was. A there are just some things I wish weren't really happening.

5 times is one time to many

Doesn't she look like she's a smart dog? Like she wouldn't get into to much trouble? Wrong!! She has been sprayed 3 times by skunks, twice in one week, and all before we left CA. Then again here in AZ while Mike had her out in the woods camping, ha ha on him. Well last night was number 5.

We've had a skunk problem here for about a month. There has been one here at least once or twice a week but the bad part is that they have been going under the house. Yuck just picture that. This little thing walking up and down the driveway and not being able to do anything about it.

Last night I pulled in and checked to make sure that it wasn't in the driveway, again then let Halley out so she could potty before I went in the house. I turned my back on her to close the gate and that's when it happened. She took off and grabbed the skunk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes that's right. Halley was sprayed again and it was to late to go to the store to get Baking soda. (I found a really great recipe that works better than tomato paste/juice) so I left her outside with her blanket and water, took a shower myself, ate a little and then went to bed so I could go to the store as soon as they opened at 6am.I will be drinking coffee today for sure, or maybe just have an energy drink or two.
