Abit Behind Again...

Haven't been doing a very good job at keeping caught up on my blog... bad me. Anyway, it's been kinda busy. On Wedensday I had to drive out to the Mississauga office for training... and of course got caught in the Beer truck incindent, then on the way back to let the Murphhead out, there was another accident, and then on my way back to Etobicoke to see the Doc. there was an accident and guess what happened on the way home from the Doc. If you said 'there was an accident', you would be sooooo right. But out of all that hellish driving there is a silver lining. I am booked to have surgery on Sept. 8th. I am soooo ready to go out and buy pretty bras... but I must wait.

On Thursday, I headed up to Owen Sound for the weekend and another Dr's appointment. It was just a follow up and no big deal. My dad is doing really well after back surgery and is feeling much better... he can even walk faster than I can. The most interesting thing that happened this weekend was Murphy's trip to the dog wash. It is an amazing idea. It's just like the DYI car washes... there is a raised wash basin with a ramp upto it and a chain to hook to the collar (or haltie as the case may be) and then you put your change in and there is a shower hose with a controlable spray head. The shampoo is premixed so you just have to soak him down with soap and water, change to the rinse setting and wash him down, then conditioner and then another rinse. There was a dryer too... but Murphy sure did not like that one bit, so we just used good ol' towels to dry him off. Now he is the envy of the neighbourhood. I am definitly going to take pictures next time.

OK, th dog wash sounds so cool. Can I come next time? Is there one here in the city?

I can't believe you were stuck in the beer truck accident traffic. Of all the luck, huh? The one day you have to drive all the way accross the city...

Sorry I've been all hermit lately. I will drag my butt out for some PARKing and coffee soon.
