Today: Can’t win ’em all.
Sometimes you just have to roll with the punches. It’s barely 11 o’clock and already the day is off to a questionable start.
- I have an eyelash, or small fiber, or miniature American flag stuck under my contact lens and it refuses to budge. The security person in our office building mistook my rapid eye movement for winking. Not interested.
- I went to take a sip from my freshly refilled water bottle. Apparently I skipped the all important screw the cap back on step. Oof.
- There are no FedEx shipping slips left in the drop box. Something tells me a Post It with our account number scribbled on it will not suffice.
Meanwhile in a condo not so far away, Clark is sulking in his cone of shame, after repeated attempts to remove his own stitches (poor little guy had to have paw surgery last week). Speaking of questionable.. yes, I did make a “pawdiatrist” joke to the vet.
Perhaps I should get out more. Or less. I hope your week’s off to a more stable start.
Also On Tap for Today:
- Welcome, ICLW-ers! Stay tuned for a giveaway this week. 🙂

How do you turn a weird day around? Did you have a nice weekend?

Funkdified day? I usually stop everything I am doing and yell directly upward in high-pitched yips and expletives until I believe that the higher powers have heard my beef. Generally, these fits last anywhere from 12 to 15 minutes — or until I see sirens and book it to the closest shrubbery/climbing tree available.

Sorry your day was less than great! Your Clark is a cutie…even with the cone. My dog hated his too when he had it. He hung his head and couldn’t walk properly. It was sad.
Hope tomorrow is better!

Poor Clark, he looks less than happy ! I’m sure you’re taking excellent care of him. And I hope your day ended better than it started.
On this Tuesday I wish for you…nothing in your eyes except your eyeballs, well prepared documents and nothing missing, no water misshaps, and certainly no advances from the security guy !!

My pup had to wear a “collar” too – she hated it. I hope he gets better real soon and I hope your day gets way better!!
