via Facebook... Still awake. But tomorrow will be a good day for napping. Maybe even make a snow fire hydrant for the dogs to use :) Ooh! If I make a snow tennis ball Timber will color it yellow! A collaborative piece of art!

via Facebook... I have five humidifiers going in my house right now. Waiting for the snow to suck the little moisture left right out.
Darlene Pineda
via Facebook... Not sleeping. Timber is, he's got all four paws resting on my leg, with random tufts of floof in the air. He gets bad bedhead :) But me? Exhausted and yet wide awake. Brain won't stop braining.

via Facebook... Woke up coughing, stumbled to bathroom to hack up a piece of lung, on the way back slammed the top of my for into the corner of my wooden bed. And when I say slammed, I mean my toes are numb and I actually made up new curse words. This is what happens when one tries to avoid stepping on a cat in the dark. Which wasn't a cat, by the way, but a fuzzy slipper some UNNAMED TERV left in the pathway. To add insult to injury, my hopping around and cursing didn't merit a glance, and all dogs and cats present remain sleeping, even snoring quietly. I mean, my pain and agony didn't even annoy them, let alone rouse any concern. Meh.

Darlene Pineda
via Facebook... Dry, hacking cough that hurts. Sinus pressure. Tired. But recovering enough to romp in the snow with the dogs!
Darlene Pineda
via Facebook... First I had major Timber cuddles. Then Misha wanted in on the action. Both are sleeping on me now <3

via Facebook... Roh roe! Power is flickering. Not a good night to lose heat. *crosses fingers, knocks on wood*
Darlene Pineda
via Facebook... Crud update: Headache, a sinus/tension combo. Although I did make it without Sudafed, so bonus. Time for a nap to prep for the snow...
Darlene Pineda
via Facebook... Crud, day five. Stuffed head and yucky, semi-productive cough. Need to prep for snow. And I can't do that from under the covers. Need magical elves :(

Darlene Pineda
via Facebook... Ending of day four with The Crud. Better today, but not so much better that I can miss my next dose of Sudafed. Lesson learned.

Darlene Pineda
via Facebook... I actually was in bed with a damp cloth on my head. I felt like I needed to swoon and have vapors. The cold did feel really nice.
Darlene Pineda
via Facebook... Awake. My eyes are swollen almost shut but I finished a book and will start a new one. Love that I can make the print big on the kindle, and dim the back light. Makes sick reading easier. A two dog, one cat night. So far.

via Facebook... Okay, time to brave the outside for MOAR MEDICINES! And tissues. And cough drops.
Darlene Pineda
via Facebook... Yay! We've come to the drippy-nose-like-a-faucet, jam in a tissue, chase Timber after he snags said tissue and runs off for noms, repeat. On the plus side I seen to be cycling through quickly....

via Facebook... It's 9 o'clock on a Friday. I'm in bed. Dogs are in bed. Cats are gearing up for Kitty Fight Club. Crud. I haz it.
Darlene Pineda
via Facebook... Finished Poirot...NEED MORE OF HIM! Now on Midsomer Murders. Slight fever.
Darlene Pineda
via Facebook... Okay, cough turned into hacking cough that feels like internal organs are being ripped out. Throat sore and burning. No fever. Crud. These chest things last for weeks.

via Facebook... That's it. I officially give up trying to ever clean up my floors until THE RAIN STOPS LONG ENOUGH FOR MY YARD TO STOP BEING A MUDDY PIT. That is all.
Darlene Pineda
via Facebook... My Horrible Day, by Timber... My day started out great! I was romping in the mud and managed to get it up to my underneathy bits! Then we came inside and Soft Lady...she got out...The TOWEL OF DOOM. And I didn't even get to growl and grumble because Soft Lady kissed my snoot and HYPNOTIZED ME! And all my lovely muddy bits got wiped off :( Then Soft Lady gave out bully sticks, and I carefully hid the last of mine for later. I dug out a spot on the couch right behind Soft Lady.... But Misha found my bully stick AND SHE ATE IT ALL! Right in front of me! Soft Lady is the WORST guard EVER. I mean, can't a dog bury something for later anymore? THEN all the slobbery soft muddy tennis balls I've been sneaking in got found and do you know what Soft Lady did? SHE THREW THEM OUT! I spent WEEKS getting them just perfect, and she thinks to distract me with fresh tennis balls...no respect for hard work. Humans are just so difficult to properly train.

Darlene Pineda
via Facebook... Day two of ginger lemon honey tea and snuggles with dogs. The heater is desperately trying to keep up with the cold, the humidifier is desperately trying to keep up with the heat, I'm desperately trying to keep the dogs entertained INSIDE, and the dogs are desperately trying to convince me that outside is the PERFECT temperature to roll on the ground and sniff ALL THE THINGS and mark ALL THE PLACES. Silly double-coated dogs. Soft Lady does not have fur. And even a Timber draped over me after doesn't quite erase the bitter chill of during... Oh, STOP LOOKING AT ME WITH THOSE EYES! Darn pirate! Give me elebenty minutes to layer on outerwear....

via Facebook... Since I'm spending a lazy sick day on the couch, I thought "Hey, let me grab my brushes and I can brush the dogs in between cuddles." Except that my pin brush AND undercoat rake seem to be mysteriously missing. I'm looking at you, Timber...

Darlene Pineda
via Facebook... New Year's Day, by Timber... Obviously I don't need to change much, because I was born kinda perfect, but I do have a few goals... Increase my breakout skill! Last night Soft Lady tried to put me in the front room and I managed to ESCAPE! I also ripped the door from the hinges (just the bottom one) and slammed Soft Lady's knee (sorry!) but a Boneless Terv has skills at evading and moving around! Those weavey pole things are great training for getting around people! Increase my counter surfing skills. My bendy straw neck can ALMOST reach to the back of the counter where soft kitty food hides... Train Soft Lady to run faster. Also, I wish I could understand what she wants me to do. When she I'm having a private moment with George Cat why would she tell me to Leave It? It makes no sense...I just ignore her... Also, I need to renegotiate my contract. 500 kisses a day just doesn't do it, I need more, and also extra snuggles and more brushing. I like brushing. It makes me frisky ;) Herding cats. 'Nuff said. Access the cat harvest. Soft Lady keeps everything she collects for herself, and I think that's just selfish. OH! And Soft Lady tells me I need to learn more manners because I'm going to get to see all my Pirate siblings and Soft Lady doesn't want me to do my Fuzzy Butthead With Brains Falling Out impression. But I think having all the Pirates under one roof will let use our combined skills to pillage and plunder! Well, that's all I can think of now. What goals do you have?
