Queenies Merry Band has grown.
#1
Big Grin 
Due to the recent death of his owner Ratt Dawg all 7 lbs of him has permanently been reunited with his chubby sister Queenie who weighs in usually somewhere between 11lbs and 13lbs

We had our first short road trip today.   It was the first time I have taken both of them to the vet without Ratt Dawg being in a dog carrier. He has not been around many dogs in his life.  Mainly Queenie and Sire, who is the Pitbull mixed breed pitbull belonging to a friend. Sire is The dog who saved Ratt Dawg the time he was attacked by two mixed breed pitbulls of the neighbors.  Before anybody that doesn't know me well makes the comment about my referral to mixed breed pitbull I have no problems with the breed, my son and I both have had mixed pitbulls.  It is the irresponsible owners that I really truly have an issue with.  The the two from next door that attacked Ratt Dawg and Carol the neighbor lady had been starved, left without water at times, also no interaction appropriately with human beings or other dogs in their lives.     They were put down by animal control.    Within 2 years the same neighbors obtained a beautiful red female pitbull around 4 months old.  She would sit on the other side of the fence and watch for rat dog to come out to talk to her.   If he had been a bigger dog there'd be a whole lot of little miniature Pitbull/Chihuahuas running around the yard. If he only could have jumped that high to get over the fence and she didn't think he was a walking snack when he landed.

He and Queenie take their third of the twin bed we sleep in out of the middle of it.  The way the bed is set up there's only one side that they possibly might fall off of.  I'm very very careful when I wake up and start stretching my legs or when I turn over to make sure there's not some fuzzy little furry critter that's about to become airborne if I'm not careful. They both snore at various time times too.

Thankfully the bed in the eyeliner is so close to the floor that with too small steps they will be able to get up and down off the bed as they please. Due to some remodeling the previous owners did on the eyeliner there's only two places to sit.  Either the bed or if you've got a very narrow butt you might be able to sit on what's left of one of the wooden sections / seats of the dining area. The table was already gone when I got the eyeliner.

Sleeping with these critters remind me of my married days.  Thankfully they're not big enough to nearly push me off the bed so I have to wake up in the night to stumble around the foot of the bed and start over on the other side.  It's too bad I didn't get paid for mileage all the times I had to walk around the bed in the middle of the night to keep from getting pushed out of it.    Too bad I didn't think of that when my attorney was negotiating my divorce settlement.

Nothing wrong w/ an extra dog! That's cool that they are siblings. Now that Camo's passed I am wondering when the time will be right to get another dog. While I know today isn't the day, I think I will at some point in 2023.
I didn't do it!

I'VE MADE SEVERAL CALLS TRYING TO FIND SOMEBODY THAT EVEN KNOWS WHAT AN ALIGNER POP-UP IS LET ALONE KNOWS HOW TO REPLACE THE POWER CORDS AT THE TOP AND THE FOUR COIL SPRINGS THAT ARE IN THE BED OF THE TRAILER AT EACH CORNER.  SEEMS LIKE I MAY HAVE POSTED THIS SOMEWHERE ELSE HOWEVER SINCE I DON'T HAVE TOO MUCH OF A THREAD GOING ON OR THAT TELLS WHAT ALL THE DIFFERENT THINGS ARE I'M TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH I MIGHT REPEAT MYSELF AT TIMES.

THAT'S OKAY I HAVE SUCH A STRANGE ACCENT ANYWAY THAT MAYBE IF I SAY WHATEVER I'M SAYING TWO OR THREE TIMES EVERYBODY READING IT WILL UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY...... OR NOT.

I'M ALSO TRYING TO GET ALL OF MY MEDICAL NEEDS TAKEN CARE OF WHILE I'M STILL IN ALABAMA BECAUSE I HAVE A GOOD TEAM OF VARIOUS MEDICAL DOCTORS PLUS MY INSURANCE PAYS EVERYTHING I HAVE NO CO PAYS ON ANY OF MY MEDICATIONS OR ON ANY OF MY VISITS AND THIS INCLUDES MY PHYSICAL THERAPY WHICH STARTS UP AGAIN TOMORROW.    

I'M CATCHING UP ON LAUNDRY A LOT OF IT HAS JUST NEEDS REALLY FRESHENING UP BECAUSE IT'S BEEN PACKED UP AND EITHER IN THE A-LINER OR IN A STORAGE UNIT FOR SOME OF IT AT LEAST A YEAR OR MORE.

TONIGHT I DECIDED TO MAKE HOMEMADE CHICKEN STRIPS I HAVEN'T HAD TROUBLE WITH THEM BEFORE HOWEVER TONIGHT I DIDN'T HAVE THE PATIENCE TO STAND AND WAIT FOR THESE CHICKEN STRIPS SO I MADE CHICKEN NUGGETS IT WAS A BAD BAD MISTAKE.  I DID HOWEVER INVENT A NEW CHICKEN DISH.   I CALL IT CHICKEN ROCKS.   Angry.   I PUT THEM IN SOME CHICKEN BROTH AND SIMMER THEM A LITTLE BIT TO SOFTEN THEM UP OF COURSE THEN I HAD TO CHOP UP QUEENIE AND RAT DOGS FOR THEM.      I'M HAVING MY CHICKEN ROCKS AND SOME CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP THAT'S MADE WITH THE BROTH THAT I USE TO SOFTEN UP THE ROCKS I KNOW WHERE I CAN BITE THEM WITH WHAT TEETH I HAVE LEFT IN MY MOUTH THANK YOU ASPEN DENTAL VERY MUCH JERKS.

THE CLOTHES DRYER IS CALLING ME I WILL NEVER GET TO EAT BEFORE MIDNIGHT AND ONLY THEN IF I'M LUCKY.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO EVERYBODY.

THE EYELINER IS RETURNING TO FLORIDA WHERE I PURCHASED IT.  THEY ARE PAYING OFF THE LOAN ON IT AND I'LL WALK AWAY WITH SOME POCKET MONEY AND A VERY EXPENSIVE EXPERIENCE AND HOW FAST MY HEALTH CAN GO DOWNHILL SEEMS LIKE JUST A HEARTBEAT AND YET IT WAS AT LEAST I THINK THREE OR FOUR YEARS AGO WHEN I BOUGHT IT AND IT'S BEEN PULLED FROM MARIANNA FLORIDA TO ENTERPRISE ALABAMA TO DALEVILLE ALABAMA AND NOW IT IS RETURNING TO FLORIDA I WOULD SAY I'M A HAPPY CAMPER BUT I NEVER GOT TO GO CAMPING IN THE S O B.

MY SPIDEY SENSES HAVE GONE INTO OVERDRIVE I NEED TO MOVE OUT OF THE HOUSE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.    2 WEEKS IN THE LOCAL NO TAIL<<<<<<<<<<<<<I SAID NO TELL MOTEL!!!! IS $350 A WEEK WITH $100 CASH DEPOSIT PLUS I DON'T REMEMBER IF IT WAS 10 OR $20 A NIGHT FOR PETS I EXPLAINED I HAVE TWO SERVICE ANIMALS WELL WHATEVER ANYWAY IT'S GOING TO COST $1,000 I DON'T HAVE A DAMN $1,000 TO BE BLOWN AWAY WHO DO THEY THINK I AM? MY LAST NAME ISN'T TRUMP?

QUEENIE AND RAT DOG HAVE CRASHED I'M NOT EVEN SURE WHERE THEY ARE LET ME LOOK UNDER THE TABLE YEAH THERE THEY ARE UNDER THE KITCHEN TABLE.    SO MY MARY BAND WENT ON A SAFARI IN A SAFARI TODAY. WE WENT TO SEE MY SISTER THE CAT LADY AND RAT DOG AND QUEENIE GOT VERY EXCITED WHEN WE GOT OUT IN HER FRONT YARD.   WHEN WE PULLED IN THE YARD AND THE DOGS CAME OUT OF THE VAN ONE CAT WENT UP A TREE A ONE CAT DIDN'T EVEN STICK HIS HEAD OUT OF HIS BIG CAT HOUSE ONE OF THEM WENT ACROSS THE STREET.      QUEENIE SNAPPED AT MY SISTER WHEN SHE TRIED TO PET HER QUEENIE HASN'T SEEN HER IN ABOUT 4 YEARS BUT QUEEN IS GETTING KIND OF CROTCHETY IN HER OLD AGE.   SHE'S LOSING HER HEARING SOMETIMES SHE SEEMS TO BE WHAT I CALL "VAPOR LOCKED" .  SHE STOPS DEAD STILL AND IT LOOKS AROUND LIKE SHE HAS NO CLUE WHERE SHE WAS AND WHAT SHE WAS DOING.

I INTEND TO MOVE OUT OF THEM OUT OF ALABAMA JUST AS QUICK AS I CAN.  THE VAN'S GOING TO NEED A LITTLE BIT OF WORK ON IT.     THE ONLY OTHER OPTION I HAVE HERE FOR TEMPORARY HOUSING IS A DECENT MOTEL AND RENT A ROOM FOR 4 MONTH IF THEY HAD WHAT THEY CALL A SMALL SUITE IT WOULD BE $375 A MONTH.   SINCE THEY DON'T HAVE A SO-CALLED SMALL SWEET COMING UP AVAILABLE I CAN RENT A SINGLE ROOM IT'S GOT EVERYTHING IN IT THE SMALL SUITE HAS BUT IT'S 500 AND SOMETHING DOLLARS A MONTH WHICH ISN'T THAT BAD FOR A ROOF OVER OUR HEAD WHERE WE'LL BE SAFE...... HOWEVER THEY WANT THE FIRST MONTH'S RENT AND THEN THEY WANT A MONTH'S RENT DAMAGE DEPOSIT AND WITH THE FEES AND EVERYTHING IF I REMEMBER WHAT IT COMES OUT TO IT COMES OUT TO ABOUT I DON'T KNOW A THOUSAND AND TWENTY DOLLARS OR SOMETHING WHICH YOU KNOW IS A LITTLE RICH FOR MY BLOOD. AT LEAST IT'S IN A DIFFERENT TOWN AND I WILL FEEL SAFER THERE.   WHICH I KNOW LONGER DO IN THIS TOWN WHERE I AM.

SO THAT'S ALL I'VE GOT TODAY EXCEPT IT NOW SINCE I'VE BEEN ON THE ROAD MOST OF THE DAY I GET TO WASH DISHES AND DO LAUNDRY AND SORT AND PACK AND THEY'RE COMING AFTER THE EYELINER IN THE MORNING.

I ASKED QUEEN AND RAT DOG IF THEY HAD ANYTHING TO SAY THEY BARELY TWITCH THEIR EARS FORGET ABOUT GETTING UP ANYWAY I HOPE EVERYBODY'S WELL.

Campground an option ?
All the gear including a honkin' tent the site and a giant box of mini dog milkbones would be a fraction of that.
Guessing the van is pretty full at that point.....
stay tuned

So you don’t shoot him in the butt for peeing?
Compared to parenting, Cat herding is less complicated

Another possible alternative to spending all the $$ on a room.

Did you ever think of renting a Uhaul truck and a tow dolly ?
Set van up for sleeping/eating , fill the truck with your stuff van on the dolly and head out......your "room" is following you.
Did that on the road once except instead of a van we towed OUR broken truck.
With the gear in the Uhaul.
Made it to the show , And home after the show.
stay tuned
