Mom and Dad home from vacation.....

Hey Everybody!!

Mom and Dad got home from their vacation a day early.  The weather played a major part in why they came home early....so they say.  I know the real reason, they just missed me so much!!  But I didn't miss them....no sir!  I was having a ball playing with Jimmy and fighting with Sandy during the night.  She got up one night and came back in the room and I was laying on her pillow!!  She tried to move me, but I wouldn't budge.  So she had to lay down at the end of the bed where I was supposed to!!  I must say......I have the life!!

They took really good care of me, they cleaned my ears for me too!  But the really really good part, they fed me egg and cottage cheese every morning for breakfast.  Jimmy said I was really good for them, I had no accidents in the house, I slept through the night except the first night.....I thought I heard something, but it turned out to be nothing. 

Mom brought me a new toy home....it's a floppy moose.  Dad wanted mom to see a moose in the worse way, but no such luck.  She said not to worry about it, she seen one in Alaska.

On the way home, they stopped at a place and got live lobsters to bring home.  Each lobster was about $10.00 a peice for 1lb and 1/4 pound.  Dad got it out of the cooler for me to check out......

I'm watching you....what the heck is in there??

Hello Mr. Lobster man.....I'm not to sure about this

I'm not liking this....look as far I'm stretching out here.

So...I got to meet this lobster.  Well....let me tell you, I didn't like Mr. Lobster, he was upset because there were rubber bands on his claws.....I'm sure I would have gotten clawed by him if there wasn't anything holding them shut.

Later that day, mom got the fire going in the firepit, and soon dad was boiling water.  They steamed the lobsters over the fire.....and mom said, "This time I'm not getting steamed, like the cook at work did on her."  Can you imagine someone turning the release valve on the steamer (big pressure cooker) while mom was cleaning the hood vents.  She had minor burns in her face and inside her nose.  The worse part is...the lady knew she was there but did it anyways.

Yesturday I was at the vet, I've been having some ear problems.  The vet said mom's doing a good job cleaning what she can get at, but the infection is deep inside my ears.  I have to see a specialist on Friday.  One of the things the vet said was....they may have to put me under to clean my ears out.  They'll flush my ears and put meds in to take care of it.  I have the worse bacteria I can get.

Last night mom and Kathy were talking online.  Kathy gave some good pointers.  She said instead of me drinking out of a bowl, have me drink out of a cup, then my ears won't get wet cause dampnest and some water to go in my ears.  Anytme I get a bath, wipe and dry my ears as quickly as possible.  Mom actually thought back to when this may have happened.  She gave me a bath and put cotton balls in my ears.  Well they came out and mom didn't know it, so she's figuring that's how I probably go the infection.

Ok....this was a catch up post....now we're up to date.
