Waaalkie....

Now that my mom feels much better we have enjoyed our long walkies again...

Starting my walkie and getting ready to sniff everything...

And while I was pointing my nose directly to the smells on the ground...

My mom was pointing hers to the sky! Funny clouds...

There were more dramatic, right?

This tree has interesting "ornaments"!

Looking at the birds going away...

And then the wind was blowing and it felt very cold so....we went back to home!

Have a good night

My mom's luck...

Is changing for good!

I want to tell you the story...

I guess I need to start with...

This picture. It was taken last Christmas Eve. Those are the presents I got. And some of my mom's too. Can you see that little box at the top of the picture??

OK. This is a better picture of it. It is a Chocolate Truffle.

Well. My mom is not a big fan of chocolate so, she was not really excited about this present. She took it to our house and she left it on the desk until 10 days ago when she was going to have her dental surgery. She put it into her purse thinking on giving it to her Dentist's assistant who is very nice with my mom. But... she forgot to give it to her. When my mom went back for the check up... she forgot it again.

Today morning, while she was cleaning our house, she wanted to eat something sugary. Since my mom thinks that if she is going to get fat... it will be for something salty, she does not have candies at home but then.... she remembered the chocolate truffle in her purse! And there she goes looking for it... She was almost drooling while she was taking away the ribbon and when she opened it...

This is what she found!! Lots of money!

She was so surprised that she forgot about her sugar craving.

It was until she counted the money when she knew where it came from!It was my grandma's present for her!

Do you remember when my mom bought her treadmill?? Well. She told my grandma that she wanted to buy it but she did not had enough money. My grandma told her to buy it with the credit card and that she would contribute with a part of the payment but that could be until Christmas. My mom appreciated that and she bought the treadmill.

Then... Christmas came. And my mom did not get a present from my grandma (or so she thought!) which was very strange but of course my mom was not going to ask to my grandma about it. It was until today when she told the whole story and the only thing I heard from my grandma was a... "You idiot" to my mom!

So, what do you think?

I really believe her luck is changing... for good!

Now, she needs to buy a real Chocolate Truffle for Bertha and not forget to give it to her next time!

Messy house...

Mom... I know you were not feeling very well but... have you noticed our messy house??

See?? Socks, boots, papers...

Ahd the desk?? That is the worst part...

Soooo???

Much better, right??

Good job! Now, lets go out for a walkie!

*************************************

My life is back to normal! I was happy to have my mom at home all these past days but knowing that she was in pain... was not funny!

No more headache, the chubby cheek is gone and her back is free of pain. The only thing that is still bothering her are the stitches in her mouth. She went to see her Dentist for a check up, he took an x-ray and eveything looks fine. No infection and just a little inflammation but he said it is normal. She has to go there again next week to see if he can take away the stitches.
She went back to work on tuesday and the first thing she knew was that the Doctor was waiting for her. He checked her back and told her to take the meds for 2 more days and, one hour ago she took the last pill!

Now, just one more day... and the weekend will be here!

Outside, enjoying the sun...

But still keeping an eye on her!

About the mean pajamas... My mom did not want to pass her bad luck to anybody sooo... she cut them in pieces and now they are expensive rags for cleaning purposes!

Mean pajama??

I guess these past days my mom has had lots of free time to think about certain things. Let me tell you...

My mom says she is not a superstitious person... because that gives you bad luck.... Haaa! Ok. Bad joke.

Well... 2 years ago, she bought a very nice pajama. It was very expensive (for my mom's standards) but she really wanted it sooooo.... she got it. She has wore it only 3 times (in 2 years!) and she has noticed a bad pattern when she wears it...

The first time... the pc fell on her toe... do you remember that episode?

For reasons I am not allowed to explain... that pajama did not fit anymore my mom... and it was not because it was big.... oops!

Then, it was until last november that the pajama came out again and that second time... my mom spent 2 days in the hospital due to the kidney rock!

The 3rd time... was last thursday when she injured her back...

Sooooo.... my mom made a decision and the pajama has to go... She does not want more painful days!

This is the mean pajama...

It is nice...

Are you sure, mom??

Looking it going away!


My mom wants to tell you Thanks!

Thanks for your concern and get well wishes. She feels better today.

Her back still hurts a little but not as bad as yesterday. Her cheek is less cubby now and thankfully the headache is gone!

I hope you all are having a great weekend!

Oh... my mom!

I have been taking care of my mom... but... something went wrong...

Yesterday, she came home with all these meds...

This morning we started to read your blogs...

And watching some tv...

Here in Mexico we have a popular saying... "Estas mas salado que un moco en medio del mar" which more or less means... "You are more salty than a mucus in the middle of the sea"... There is nothing more salty than that, right?

And salty for us means unlucky...

These two days have not been the best for my mom.

Yesterday, as you know, she had her "toofie" surgery. Her Dentist applied 10 shots to her. 6 anesthesic, 2 antibiotics and 2 painkillers. She says the shots were more painful than the surgery itself. Everything went well but she came home with the right side of her face sleepy, a chubby cheek, a bunch of meds and a big list of things she is not allowed to do!

Later in the afternoon, she had a big headache. Her Dentist called to know how she was doing and prescribed her another pill for the headache.

One of the things she has to do is to sleep almost steady... and that was hard. She is used to sleep with her face buried on the matress! Of course... she could not sleep a minute.

This morning, her headache was much worse.

We came down to have breakfast and then she said she wanted to sleep a little to feel better. But I wanted to go with her so she bent down (one of the things she is not allowed to do!) to pick me up and while we were on the stairs, she injured her back!

As she could, she reached the phone and called her other Doctor. She explained to him what had happened and he prescribed her another med! And this one is one of those you have to put under your tongue and it is so disgusting that she wants to puke everytime she has to take it!

So far, she has:

A big chubby cheek

A big headache

A big tummy revolution

A big and painful back

Salty?? Naaaah!

She planned to go back to work tomorrow but seems like that will not be possible. And I am very happy with that.... not that she is in pain but that she will be at home with me until next week!

I promise I will take good care of her!

Have a good night

Yes... Wordless Wednesday!

I did not get permission to post a picture of my mom. But she says she feels CRAPtastic...

She will be at home tomorrow and I promise that as soon as we wake up we will visiting your blogs!

Have a good night

More cards!

Congratulations Joey on your 100oth Post!

Sure this deserves a big celebration!

********************************************

The mean mailman did not come last saturday like he promised to me... but he came today!

I love all your cards! Thanks a lot!

***********************************************

And the crazy weather continues...

Last night I went to sleep naked because it was very hot...

Today by noon, I had to wear a sweater...

And then... in the afternoon I had to wear a jacket for my walkie!
And the weatherman said tomorrow will be hot!

***********************************

My mom is going to have an "interesting" week.
Tomorrow a doctor is going to steal her blood for her annual tests and on wednesday she is going to go to the Dentist... again. She thought her last visit was the last but... Oh-oh!
She needs surgery to save her molar... and she is scared!
I told her she is going to have an authentic.... Wordless Wednesday!

Sooo crazy weather...

Friday night we still had a cold weather. My mom was reading your blogs and I wanted to play...

Saturday morning... it was very hot. My mom decided to wash my sweaters... almost all of them...

When she finished, we turned on the computer to read your blogs...

This is an example of the Word Verification we get sometimes... "Basura"...
It means "Trash"!

When we came down to have lunch, my clothes were dry. My mom left them on a pile!

In the afternoon, we went for a walkie...

A sunny walkie...

I saw my Anatolian friends!

Enjoying the sun...

And at the end of the day... my sweaters were ready to be put on my drawers...

And me... ready to sleep!

I hope you all are having a great weekend

Thanks Mona and Mommy!

Today the mean mailman came and as soon as I heard him I barked at him. I wanted to tell him about his poor performance! I asked to him about my Christmas cards and he said there are some in the Postal Office but the administrator did to give them to him to bring them to me today! Can you believe that?? But... instead of that he gave me a package! I told him thanks but also.... "I want to see you tomorrow here with my cards, ok"?

I waited until my mom came home to open the package...

Right there mom... go ahead!

A very close inspection....

Trying to reach the pawesome note to read it...

Wow! Yummy treats and two toys! and...

"You look familiar to me...."
Presents for my mom too!

Thanks Mona and Mommy!

*****************************************

Do you remember the Christmas Tree Contest that Mona and her Mommy invited us to participate in last december? Well... I won! I told Mona which tree was my favorite and that was the winner!

Milo won too! And he got his presents first... that is why I barked at the mean mailman!

****************************************

Thanks Mona and Mommy. I love all your presents
The treats are yummy and the toys pawesome.

My mom wants to say Thanks too! She loves the mouse pad and the keychain too!
