Good Afternoon All,

Hope your day has been a good one.  Mine hasn’t been too bad so far, but hey it’s still kinda early.  So yesterday was kind of exciting and not in a good way.  I had a relatively good day at work,  the weather sucked, it was cold, windy and snowy all day.  Anywho, I got off work and drove through Mc D’s to get some dinner for my boyfriend and I, not a problem, checked our mail, didn’t get any bills so that’s always good.  Well I get home, my boyfriend is sleeping (due to his just finishing his last night/graveyard shift for the week), so I am greeted by my puppy.  I go wake up my boyfriend and walk out into the living room and see the mess Angel had made.

No she didn’t poop or pee on our floor, she got into one of our plants and there was potting soil all over the floor.  I was pissed off…she had not only spread it out all over by the plant, but tracked it all over the house, mainly on our blue rug.  Okay, so that was irritating, I rubbed her nose in it said no, spanked her little butt and locked her outside for 15 minutes while I cleaned up the mess.  Keep in mind it was cold out there, I hope she learned her lesson.  Well that made me all pissy so I was pissy for a while, however I ate and had a smoke while we watched Robocop on TV.  I felt better.  Well later that night we had to go to a friend’s house to water his plants – since he’s outta town – and we come home and my little “Angel” had gotten my pack of cigarettes and chewed the box up and there were cigarettes all over…she had even gotten into the ashtray and had butts all on the floor.  She’s been in trouble for this many times before and she hadn’t done it for quite some time and then Ta-Da she did two bad things in one afternoon.  She got to go outside again and think about what she’s done.  I can’t understand why she was freakin out like this.  She got tons of attention all weekend and she even got to sleep in my bed with me Sunday night so it’s not like she hasn’t gotten any attention.  I can’t figure out why she’s pissed off and feels like destroying things.  I talked with my boyfriend this morning and she got in trouble again…she was chewing on our wood knick knack shelf thing and wouldn’t listen to him when he told her to get out.  Any advice from fellow pet owners?

I almost got another puppy yesterday too, but after coming home to potting soil all over my floor, I just lost momentum.  Help me figure this one out!

Other than that excitement I am just working my tail off (well not right now of course) at work.  I’ve gone from twiddling my thumbs to working my tail off…all in a day’s work.  I have another dilemma I’d like to get feedback on, but I will most likely save that for another day as I need to get back to work right now.   Take care and have a fabulous day everyone!  Sorry I’ve been a slacker on comments and updates, I have been reading all ya’lls blogs to keep up with you but I just haven’t had much time to leave any thoughtful comments so I haven’t left any.  Sorry!  I still love you!  I would appreciate any puppy advice as well…FYI – Angel is an 11-month old Chihuahua female.

Ta Ta!
