Can you tell me why my dog is GREEN?My lil divas in training (ages 9&13) decided to get a head start on Halloween by magically turning the dog GREEN.They were given one simple task and I do mean simple. Please bathe the dog while I am at work because as cute as she is she smells like pure ASS!!. Now, they did call me at work to tell me that they had come across a small obstacle in completing their task. The dog ( a shitzu) had nipped at one of the divas and now was over the whole bath taking experience. Ok.. fair enough. I simply say let her dry and I we will try to bathe her again when I get home. Ok.. cool. no worries..AHHH!! but somewhere between that phone call and 6pm the fairy came and sprinkled dust upon the dog's kennel magically turning the underside of her belly, her four paws and her tail green. Oh what a pretty shade of green it is!! The dog who is typically white with tan spots looked just plain embarrassed as she walks out the dag on kennel in slow motion. She knew in all her doggy wisdom that someone had JACKED HER UP and they were not confessing. Here we are 4 days and several baths later my dog is still green. Not the magically delicious green she was initially but still green. I need to take her to the groomers to have them reverse the damage but, I am kind of embarrassed to tell the vet I have no FREAKIN clue what happened. I have to give it the lil divas this time they are staying tight lipped and locked down on their alibi. Still no one knows what happened. They have even endured the interrogating skills of the pseudo-boyfriend/husband when he demanded an explanation of what happened to his baby. They gave him the same lame but miraculously story they gave me but, his included cute smiles, dimples and batting eyelashes!!I personally blame creative, cute shows like That's So Raven - that give potentionally bad kids like mine cute ideas like melting cheese in the heating ducts or turning the dog the unnatural shade of a skittle. There is one thing left for me to do. Slap some ears on her and send her trick a treating with the lil divas as a Gremlin!!.
My life is a trip.. But then again whose isn't.However, I believe I find more humor in my life than most and felt it was time to share the world through my mind's eye. Which at times should really be closed. Anyway, like many of my blogger mentor's i.e.SingleMa and Debt Hater I am jumping on the financial bandwagon. But, I am riding shotgun. I will let them drive that one. I also have the challenged of my lunatic ex-husband, my control freak boyfriend and my lil diva's in training.The ultimate goal : Kick off my journey down the yellow brick road of dreams and show myself and my lil divas that dreams can come true. Whew!! That does sound like fun!!!
