I'm going to try this out, to get it all out in the most efficient way possible; hahaha. I'm going to try not to ramble today, yeah right!
1. Last night, I gave my son a bath a little later than usual, because it was actually bedtime. haha. I didn't want to put him down with wet hair, so I had to blow dry him. I sat in his room and turned the blow dryer on and he ran away, he was terrified of it! hahah. But, my son CAN NOT RESIST GIVING A HIGH FIVE! That is his kryptinite. At first he wouldn't come to me, even though I asked him for a high five. He could still see the blow dryer. He would run up to me and stay like 3 feet away and stop. He would laugh and laugh and hold his hand up, but not close enough to reach. I did it like 10 times, he would not come to me! He knew I was going to catch him! hahahaha. He's so smart. So I hid the blow dryer and asked him for a high five, he runs over to me saying "high fives, high fives" with his little out stretched hand. I grabbed him and blew his hair dry, he cried the whole time. haha. It was so sad, but so funny. I laughed until I cried, my husband laughed too because AJ wouldn't come to me. It was hilarious.
2. I would LOVE to have a friend for Ellie, but that will never happen. The only time I'll get another bunny is when Ellie is like 10 and she is on her last leg and I know I won't be able to ever live without a bunny again. I'll die with a rabbit, I'm sure. I have to have one in my life at all times, its a must! haha. Actually, I don't know if never getting her a friend is an option, because I don't know if she is going to be okay on her own. Like with Foo, she was fine. She loved me and I loved her and I was all she needed, but Ellie, I'm not sure. She may need a friend, but I just don't think I could go through with having her spayed. I really really thought Foo would make it through and be okay and everything would have been perfect, but that definitely didn't happen. So I don't know if I could send Ellie down that road and be so worried she wouldn't make it back. So she'll probably always be on her own. I hope to introduce her to my son soon, once she's isn't as scared of everything, so maybe her and my son can be friends and she'll have someone other than me to depend on for love. Ya know?
3. It is so cold out here. Its been sleeting on and off all morning and my house is freezing. Poor little Ellie, had to stay in the cold kitchen last night. I left her out of the cage though, so when I got up and went to check on her this morning she had warm ears. So she obviously found a warm place to sleep. Now she is in her cage, because I have a cat that I just can't trust, its Smokey. Smokey is being a total hunter and she keeps chasing Ellie. I just can't handle it. Ellie is so small compared to Smokey, Ellie is MAYBE 2 lbs and Smokey is 15! Ahhh, I love my cats, but I really dislike them sometimes. I hope Ellie gets bigger and she can chase the cats around instead of the other way around.
4. I made an appointment to take my dog to the groomer, but rescheduled because of the weather. Because here in the south, we are NOT equipped for frozen precipitation. I mean, the schools are closing early because there is a CHANCE of frozen something. Not even snow. They're planning way ahead. ahaha. It is like 26*F thats freaking cold for me! I just have no tolerance for cold. I went to Pittsburgh the Christmas before last and I was miserable up there, and it was a mild winter for them. Ugh, I hate cold. Anyway, I called my mom about told her I was taking the dog to the groomer and she was like, "why? I hate groomers...blah blah." I told her, "I have 55 lbs worth of dog with two coats, that smells like a dead sea otter. The last time I gave him a bath in my tub, his fur clogged up the drain for 3 months and I had to use serious chemicals to UNclog that drain! I will pay someone to wash the dog!" hahahaha. I'm only taking him for bath, no nail clipping or shaving since he's already short haired. She is just so anti-groomer. Ugh, she's a pain. I also told her if she wanted to wash him in her tub, she could. haha. So his appointment is on Monday morning. I told Woody the dog that if he got a bath and smelled really good, he could go back to sleeping in bed with us, and he could get on the couch again. He looked really happy. Plus the last time I spent the time and effort washing him, the next night he went and killed something and came back covered in blood. Jerk!
5. Now, I'm off to my BFF's house to spend the day with her, her mom, and Aunt Ann! hahah. I'm so excited. Aunt Ann gets to see my son for the first time since he was a few months old, how exciting! Plus, they have central heat and thats a plus when its super cold like this. haha. My fire has warmed up the house, but not to the 80 like I like it, jk. I would die in 80* of fire heat. 70* would be nice though.
Then tomorrow my son is going to stay with my dad and his girlfriend for the afternoon into the night, I'm so excited about that! I need a break from my child. I haven't been away from him in weeks. And my husband and I have a lot of stuff to do this weekend, so hopefully without him here, we can get it done. Those of you with kids know what I'm talking about, haha. Sometimes you just need a day/night away! Especially when you spend as much time with your kid as I do. 24/7. Thats a lot of time. I love him, but jeez.
Hahahah and today I get to sherk all my household duties and spend the day with friends. Its so nice. If only it were acceptable in America to drink in the middle of the day, I would get a bottle of wine; but it isn't. :'( Damn it, I wish I lived in Europe! I'm going to put on my Bronx accent and let me alter-ego Rhonda with an RH like Rhode Island come out. (Yes, thats real. Story: when my BFF and I were teenagers we would prank call people and go into our alter-ego voices. She was Patti, from Brooklyn and I was Rhonda. hahaha. It was so bad, but so funny. We would have these serious conversations with people in these voices and now when we're together we go a little nuts. Its pretty funny. My husband loves it! Her whole family is from the Bronx so they all have the accents. Its great. I'm a southerner who was basically raised by total yankee's.)
Yes, its still a rambling day.
And now I'm done. Happy Friday everyone!
Fin.
