Daily Notes 11/01/2007

Posted at 2:59 pm under Uncategorized

November 1st already! This year is literally flying by for me!

November birthdays: Ma 11/22, Pam 11/28, BeBe 11/29

My calendar for November shows a beach scene…go figure! But in retrospect, it’s better than the predictable turkey.

Speaking of calendars, the one I ordered for Drew’s friends shipped yesterday. I can’t wait to see all the lovely photos that are in it. If you didn’t order one, you will miss out on a treat!

Eddie said he had to work last night. Don’t know if Randy got to trick-or-treat this year or not, but if he did, I hope mama got some pictures of him in his costume. I know whatever he was (probably a pirate), he was adorable!

Have had a drama going on about a Whippet I fostered and then placed recently. She was placed with a previous whippet owner in Atlanta who was advised that she would take some time to get used to new surroundings and should be leash walked for at least the first two weeks and supervised in the fenced area out back for another two weeks after that. Well, the dog got away from the new owner 8 days after she took possession. It seems the new owner installed a dog door in her sliding glass door, so the dog had unsupervised access to the back yard — despite the discussion of supervision for the first 2-3 weeks and the promise from the new owner that she would wait a month to install the door.

Then it seems the dog took up with someone with in a couple of miles of new owners house, but according to new owner, dog was not sighted since 9/30….this despite new owner going to this house where the dog was hanging out at least twice and subsequently calling the home owner on the day I found out about the dog being found to ascertain who had picked her up.

Long and short is that WRAP is refunding the adoption fee and the dog is now in a new home with more understanding parents, but I am seeing red. People continue to disappoint me…:cry:

Well, enough of my tragedies.

Hope your day has been a beautiful one!

Love to all,

Margaret

    Unfortunately Randy was in a bad mood last night and there was no trick-or-treating. Thanks to the emergency trip to Lousiana, funds were tight, so we were going to re-use his monkey costume from last year anyway (yes it still fit – barely).

    On the good news front – Yvonne is interviewing for a job tomorrow with one of the tour bus companies that goes around DC! The pay is pretty good and all she needs to do is get a Maryland commercial drivers licence (like she had in Georgia when she drove school buses) If she gets it, our only problem will be a flexible daycare for Randy to accomodate our schedules.

    Wish her luck!
