Dakota and the Deck

Dakota....
oh he has brought me to tears,
he has brought me to smiles
and he has brought me to
laughter!
 
I had him for about a week...
and the whole time all that kept
coming out of my mouth was...
 
I AM NOT KEEPING
THIS DOG.
I don't want a dog.
I will find him a home.
 
But till then I had a kitchen to
paint! LOL
 
 
This DOG had so many insecurities
that he had to be right there
UNDER
my feet!
 
While painting my kitchen that
was really hard. So I chained
him up in the
backyard, where he could
see me in the kitchen.
 
BARK, BARK, BARK...
So I decided to close him up on the deck.
Next thing I knew he jumped off...
about 5 feet.
 
Okay, something has to give so I
put the leash on him,
closed him up on the deck only
given him enough leash to move
around. Gave him toys and bones......
 
Looked out, and could not see him,
but I could see the leash, curving and going
in front of the door.
 
Okay, where was he now. I opened the screen
to look out and there he
was...
trying to hang himself!
(sorry no pic)
LOL....I looked and there
Dakota was, hanging from
the side of the deck.
Claws out and buried in the
wood.
Just THERE!
 
I panicked and if
it had not been for fear that he
would break his neck or
hang himself I would have
ran and got the camera.
 
Course that thought only occured to
me once I got him down and stopped
laughing!
 
Mind you laughter only came
after I rescued him from a broken
neck!
 
The pic below is about how he had
his claws in the wood..
only here, years later
he was, excuse me, Lola was
messing with him.
 
 
Thanks for stopping in,

The Rest of Today

After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after h...

Swollen Hand and Leipers Fork

Image
Wasp sting update~ I made an apt to go  to Fast Pace on Sunday, then canceled.  I wanted to give it one  more day. I did ice  off and on all day and  did Benadryl cream, Sunday night, swelling  is going down. This was Sunday  morning. This in is this  morning. Never been so happy to  see my ugly veins before! YAY L eipers Fork, TN. Cool little place about 30 mins from the house. I have been here, years ago but the other day, I wanted to get out, so I picked  Leiper's Fork.  Of course, since I love old  cars I had to stop and take pics of this one. Then off I went,  camera around my neck and ready for pics. This is one of the local  gallery.  Isn't that yellow door cute? Cool door with all the  details on it. I also love the old door knobs on these old doors. I thought this would  stand out in a pic as B&W. Again, the detail, down to  the very knob itself. This is a store in the mist of about ei...
