local

Last week, I walked into our friendly neighborhood Food Lion (aka Lucky Tiger, whichever suits you best) to buy some treats for my mutual activity.  I came across one of the workers, who said, “Do you need any help, ma’am?” To which I replied, “no thanks.”  And she said, “Yeah I didn’t think so – you come here enough you should know where you’re goin’ by now.”  Then she yelled at me because I stepped on her clean floor.  I laughed after her first comment, but it turned into one of those 1/2 nervous laughs after the second…

Gotta love G’ville.

flying

I don’t know if the above video will work – if it doesn’t, go to:

Next time – certification?  Thinking about it…. :)

I think great minds think alike, because my Mom and Dusty both suggested this great plan:  Dusty flies the plane up, and I jump out of it!  (quite the dramatic exit, I think)

Speaking of which – Dusty is (most likely) flying solo for the first time this weekend!  NOT that he needs it….but everyone maybe just send a few prayers this way… :)

(Sunshine update:  Sunny-girl seems to be doing much better  -the vet said that she (probably) has pemphigus, an auto-immune disease (rare, of course).  We figured this out after she didn’t respond at all to 2 weeks of antibiotics and antifungals (and a hefty bill).  And the vet STILL wants to do a skin biopsy to confirm the diagnosis, which costs about $300… our vet-school friend Judd said that the type of pemphigus she has is actually the most mild type, and we’ve been treating her with some OTC hydrocortisone, and we’re seeing our old Sunshine come back!  Now let’s hope it keeps working!!)
