I am trying hard to be joyful. Mercury is in retrograde I hear.
So, my little princess, Penny, traveled with me this morning on errands but I left her at home to go to the food store. She ate the shades.

I shouldn't laugh, but... hahahahahahahaha
I recommend having a beer. After the cat departed from his mortal duties, I was struck by how awfully smelly the house no longer was and how I had clearly lived with the sort of pet I would shun old friends over were they to have one, too. By rights I ought to have shunned myself if I were a consistent sort - which I am not. In the end, all I can recommend is that beer and remind you that you are on a free beer mailing list.
Both dogs look guilty. Are you sure it was Princess Penny?
Perhaps her diet is a tad low on vinyl (or aluminum, I can't tell)?
Alan's right, you don't realize how much you'll miss the stunts, mess-ups and odours until they're gone.
Oh, she has had quite a day, let me tell you. 4 am she was all full of play and vim and vigor, which has never happened (she went out and had a huge poop), then while walking at 7:30 she grabbed a well flattened squirrel somebody had killed last week (RIPE!), and she had previously chomped on these shades before, just a little, so she could look out the window at a living squirrel. She's so darn cute and sweet though, and everybody in this house is feeling a bit Mercury-retrogradish.
Thanks CM, really thoughtful of you. We might 'accidentally' lose our next party invitation to you before we mail it.
CM if that's what you have to say I don't want to hear from Celeste, your beer-swilling, whiskey-chugging acquaintance.
Switched the shades with another set so the front of the house looks less derelict, depending on where you look.
I'm all for sending the dog back to the pound.
Yikes! get the Rolaids! She doesn't look too good and may even look a tad remorseful! You'll be taki' her to the grocery store next time so she can pick out her own food like she wanted to...before she saw shades on the menu!
Of course, the cat's looking all smug!
Ohhh, Celeste....
hmmm.. I remember a cat I had that broke off 4 slats on the outside edge of the adjusting strings so she could get onto the window ledge to watch the world. it wasn't in a main window so I just left it. .. maybe.. just maybe if this is her favourite viewing window.. blinds could be raised during the day for her???
But I totally understand how you are both upset and love her at the same time.... reminds me of I can home from work one day and discovered kelli had graciously chewed a few spots in my new kangaroo hide whip... wasn't sure whether to cry or laugh
I know, five inches up always from now on. I guess that means the neighbors would see ....
