yeah....it gets better! The remnants of Hurricane Ike blew through here on Sunday night, and took some portions of my roof with it, as it headed out towards the Atlantic. Oh well, that is what Homeowners Inusurance is for, right? I am letting them handle this one. I am using the company that they recommended to do the repairs, and being done with it!
The dogs are loving the constant parade of workers that have been coming and going. I think they are exhausted from all the entertaining they have had to do in the past week and a half.
Photos will follow this post, with pics of Fredericks NEW bed. Fred can be a bit of a PIA (no....., not FRED!!) at nighttime, what with the constant SCREAMING (yes, my dog DOES scream....really, if you have not witnessed it, you are in for a treat...it'll crack your eardrums) if his blankie falls off of him. Ignoring him does not work. How do you tune out ear peircing screams? All you can hope for is that his voice loses pitch, and he works himself up to the much preferred "silent scream"...this is where he gets SO emotional, he opens his mouth, and not a lot of volume comes out. It is like he is SO upset, he just cannot speak of it, hence, the silent scream. But, i digress. We have been looking for a bed/den for Fred. I saw a picture years ago in a Vizsla book of a V-pup in a little fleece bed, and it had a fleece cover over the top of it. A perfect den. We got this book when 9-year-old Henry was a pup, and having been looking for the bed ever since. Good ole Orvis has one! It is called the Burrow Bed, and I ordered it this weekend. It arrived today...and let me tell you...there was MUCH excitement in this household. I think Fred KNEW it was for him. When Henry came to smell the box, Fred growled at him. What a little sh*t. Whatever...i am just happy that he seems to be thrilled with the bed. He has popped in and out of it several times today. The real test will be this evening.
I will get the pics downloaded and posted asap! Right now, i gotta get my houndies outside to enjoy the sunshine. It is a beautiful day here today, and the pool needs to be used before it gets closed down for the season. Henry will be so sad. :o( I have not told him yet.

Yea! Now that's the right attitude. I mean really what else are gonna do? Try to climb into Fred's bed and cry? Can't wait to see the photos - hope it stops the screaming. (By the way, we never heard him once.) g
man.. when it rains it pours...or in your case when the plumbing bursts the roof blows away! I'm sorry you're having such bad luck! Hope this is the last of it for ya!
