Come to my Pile Party! CAR TRIP!! ALERT!

**Bananas** · 02-05-2005, 01:38 AM

It is time for another pile party this weekend! I have gone through countless cartons of Mom's belongings, hauled them to her apartment, and made her go through it all. Still have a fifth to go in quantity. My trunk is full of bags and cartons to donate to the Salvation Army. My back seat is also starting to fill up.

The priority this weekend is to go through all of the piles of my stuff in the guest bedroom and organize. Set up some files, and get school stuff back to school. Finish paying bills, fill out application for med program and master's degree. Fill out reimbursement forms, grade papers, and resrore some order. Do the stuff I have put off for months.

So, hop aboard and head over to join me. Bring your piles and some food to share. We will have piles of sandwiches and cookies. Zacchaeus will greet you like you are the Queen of England. He is an entire hospitality committee. Just don't put your food down without watching him like a hawk. He may be twelve years old, but he still thinks he is a puppy. He is not in agreement with us of his need to be on a diet, so he swipes as he can.

Unfortunately, Denver Pyle is no longer on this earth, so he may not be an honored guest. We can live in hope that Gomer Pyle,USMC can come and boost our spirit.

Are you coming?

Sorry- I must pass on your invitation. Cleaning?? Straightening up the clutter??? Nope, I am waiting for a few snow days to do that. Trixie and I will come visit at another time as she is anxious to meet and play with Zac (you didn't think I'd try to spell that name did you?).

Sounds like fun, but I have a prior engagement. Next week is the end of the grading period.

I'd love my new little shelter rescue to meet your doggie though.

I think she is beginning to understand that she has a forever home now.

What, a dog that doesn't know he is on a diet? How can that be? I have to share my "beagle story" from this week.
I had bought a small loaf of banana bread at the store and was grabbing a slice of that and a piece of fruit as my breakfast on the go this week. Well, I came home Wednesday afternoon and saw the "bread pan" on the rug going into the living room. On checking, I discovered all that was left in the pan was the top, which was covered with nuts. Lucky had eaten the rest of the bread. I must have knocked it off the counter when I grabbed my lunch bag. However, he hasn't gotten any treats the rest of the week, nor has he begged for them. And, to be honest, I didn't like the bread so I should be glad someone enjoyed it!

Of course, Zacchaeus knows he is on a diet; he just doesn't like it. So, he preys the trash cans and sniffs for food left in his range. He crowning jewel was the chicken leg off of my very own plate while watching a football game. bad dog; very bad dog

I was attempting humor when I questioned how a dog couldn't understand being on a diet. Guess it was a good example of needing the inflections and intonations to make it sound funny. Too early on a Saturday morning to succeed at that.

Lucky knows when he shouldn't do something, but just looks at me with his "I'm so cute--you can't say no to me look." It seems his diet isn't working much better than mine!
