Had to check on the babies Rayven is nursing, so I took the camera with me. even got Linus and Moose to sit still for a second. lol

puppy pile Part III




Linus being bashful




Moose figured Gravy Train for a photo was a fair trade. lol

not really good shots....but it's kinda hard to do good photography when you have a 55 pound mama pit bull trying to push you out of the way...







Did have to take one of the white pups from mom. She had bled too much when her umbilical cord was nipped so she was too weak to nurse. Found out she can bottle feed just fine...now she's load, mouthy and squirming all around my g/f's living room! lol

Last minute update....g/f just sent me a pic of the baby...

snapped a few pics of the new litter...9 pups. we've decided that Moose must be the dad, 'cause these look just like the ones from the last litter...









yep...I have two little baby Saschas...I'm screwed. lol

I may not have mentioned that one of the neighbors dogs was hanging around while the girls were in heat....and that Rayven and Terra looked preggers. Well....Rayven was. She had puppies last night...looks like 8, but we haven't tried to get a close count yet since they're so little.

And heaven help me, two of 'em look just like Sascha!

Hadn't posted any pics of the pups lately...so here they are...


Storm guarding the sofa...


Zoie looking confused


The pups kinda stood still for a photo...


PJ and Sasha being camera hounds


Sasha trying to look innocent...as if...

...but too many fucking opinions.

Not gonna rant...too late at night for it. But krick will know what I'm talking about....


....wanders off, mumbling about uneducated asshats....

It's bad enough I'm having to spend a couple of thousand dollars on legal fees to collect from my homeowners insurance...but now the auto insurance crowd is on the "fuck you" bandwagon. I had cancelled the insurance on my Chevy back in December because I never drove it and the insurance company wanted to raise the premium. I stopped yesterday after work to pay my premium but the office was closed. After I got home, I looked on the bill to get the customer service number so I could pay by phone. First time I'd paid attention to the statement since January...and surprise, my Chevrolet is still listed on the policy! Seems I've been paying an extra $31.68 a month to insure a vehicle which wasn't registered, and after the hurricane is not driveable! This should be really interesting when I go by the insurance office Monday afternoon....

Just a couple of shots of PJ and Sasha...thought they were cute.





Did I mention that they're sitting on my kitchen table? little demon pups...lol

It keeps getting better! I had to work today...and got the rest of the week of (paid!). Got home and found that the surveyor had been here, so the deed transfer is a step closer to complete....AND one of the disaster cleanup crews has started cutting up the downed trees! One tree is gone already...two left.

Did I mention I got the week off with pay? Neener Neener

just to show I really was a band geek....here I am in uniform.
