Wordless Wednesday
I don’t know what you think, but to me it looks like this kittens head is way too big for it’s tiny body!
Just look at that tiny tiny little tail! So Cute!
Trying to decide on a gift for Chris
I’m trying to think of what to get Chris for Christmas.
The way we’ve been spending money what with our trip to Vegas, buying a puppy – the training crate for her, 3 sets of vet bills in two weeks since she’s sick, toys and so on, plus the car windows motor broke the other day so that was another expensive bill … oh and the DLP TV needed an expensive new light bulb last week … I’m just not sure whether we should even exchange gifts at all. BTW the expenses I just mentioned above are several thousand dollars worth all in just a months time!
I mean, we’ve got to get gifts for family members, but we don’t really need anything and the puppy is like a Christmas gift for both of us.
If I were going to get Chris a gift I thought about maybe getting him a new watch. His current watch is nice enough and still works but it would be nice to get him a dressy watch. I can’t afford any of the beautiful IWC watches, but if I could find another brand that was similar I think it would be a gift that he would appreciate.
What do you think? Is the puppy enough of a gift for the two of us? I think she is. We have pretty much everything else we need and want.
Bowl full of Kittens
Aw aren’t they adorable? I think there might be three kittens in that dog food bowl. If you look closely below the second kittens head I think that’s the ears of another kitty.
I’ve never been much of a cat person, but I adore kittens. They are so cute and so very sweet and playful.
I don’t think my puppy likes cats much. When we went to the breeders to pick her out of the litter there was a cat in the barn. It actually walked around the top of the pen and the only puppy to bark at it or perhaps even notice it was of course our little Midnight.
The only other time we’ve observed her around cats has been at the vets. They have a resident cat and she barks at it and they also have a few young cats and kittens in cages near the front window and she went nuts barking at them.
Of course she barks at other dogs and people when we’re walking but I’m certain those are hello barks. The bark she gives the cats she’s encountered is a little different. I guess as she gets older we’ll have a better idea if she really does dislike cats or not and what some of her barks really mean.
Our neighbors home is still up for sale
Our neighbors house still hasn’t sold yet. I think it’s been up for sale since the end of September.
The other day I was in our back enclosed porch cleaning up the area so our puppy wouldn’t get into anything that might harm her and someone was seeing the house next door. The people stopped to talk on the porch and didn’t realize I was right next to them on my porch (the window in between is frosted) and I over heard them saying the house was too much of a fixer upper for them.
The house really does need work. The real estate agent originally had it listed at $349,000 but it looks like it’s been lowered to $333,000. Both prices are really good for our area. I’m fairly certain with the work we’ve done to our home we could list ours at close to one hundred thousand higher, but there home really is in bad shape inside.
Chris was talking to the owner the other day and he told Chris that mortgage companies won’t lend anyone money for the house because their oil tank is more than 15 years old. Hmmm so is ours but we have insurance. It makes me wonder if they don’t even have home insurance? Anyway, they are going to have the oil tank removed and install gas.
Still … their price is too high for their home. They’ve done absolutely nothing to fix it up at all.
It still looks like it was last decorated in the 60’s or 70’s and like nothing much has been done to it since then.
If they ever do manage to sell the house I hope we get good neighbors. That’s all I ask.
No flying vacations for a while I guess
I was just saying on my other blog that now that we have a puppy we probably won’t be flying anywhere for vacation for the next several months. Puppy needs to be house trained and grow out of her chewing and teething stage before we could even ask anyone to look after her while we are away.
So that means she’ll have to come with us on vacation if we even go on vacation. I guess we’ll be doing road trips and we’ll be trying to find pet friendly places to stay.
I’ve always wanted to go to Carolina. It’s a long drive, but not too bad. Perhaps a vacation on the Outer Banks might be nice. I’m sure that there must be some pet friendly cabins or motels there.
Do you know of any pet friendly vacation spots that aren’t too far from where I am here in Ontario?
