Don't Forget to Pack Me!

Word of the Day

Prant - A tiny useless piece of chalk, virtually unusable for anything.

Poor Gypsy is totally stressed and confused right now. All this packing frenzy is driving her crazy. She figured that she'd be safe if she sat in her kennel because there was no way that we'd leave without the kennel and if she's in the kennel...she goes too but...I took her kennel blankets out to wash this morning and then took her kennel outside, took it apart and washed that. It's outside drying in the sun. I figured it might be nicer while trapped in tight quarters as we travel cross-country for several days if we started with a clean dog, clean dog bedding, and a clean kennel. However, this has upset the poor dog. Now, she's been "dogging" my every step...which makes packing and doing laundry a bit more of a challenge. Poor puppy. There's no way that I'd forget to pack my baby but there's no way to tell her that.

In the meantime, I'm doing laundry and the pile of Everything that has to go is growing in a spot in the dining room. I'm putting it all there so HTP will be able to subconsciously see Everything so he won't be so startled and upset tomorrow when he has to figure out how Everything will fit into one small red Gator. There are still more things to add to the pile but that's just HTP's stuff.
