Karma’s Bitch
Ack!'
So anyone who knows me knows about Latin Thunder that lives upstairs. Today as I fed my birds I glanced out the window and saw two of my heavy footed neighbors out in the snow trying to shovel out thier car with a broken shovel. I don't know why I had pity on them considering how many migraines they have contributed to. But I did and thus the story unfolds. I cut my finger open trying to open the window to call out to them so I opted to banging on the window and signaling them to come to my door. I handed them a snow shovel I got in the hall and some pizza boxes. Upon realizing that there was a language barrior I tried using hand motions as to why I was giving them pizza boxes. They never got that concept but they made use of the snow shovel. Now it gets interesting. I come across the knowledge that the snow shovel was the property of the woman next door. I apologized several times and she said all was well. All was NOT well...not well at all. I hear her spazzing in the hall talking to herself and well...suffice to say I knew I was Karma's Bitch. The story ends with her yelling at the Mexicans. "Mine MINE..mine..." Suffice to say she retrieved her shovel, I gave them the two in the hall that actually did belong to the building after telling the confused duo that she was a "mucho loco gringa" and thier car was shoveled out, the walk was cleared and they were amazed by my bi-lingual skills. I have to say I am a bit frazzled, my finger hurts like hell, my feet are froze from the snow puddles in the hall that my compression hose soaked up and I am one hot mess. I have come to the conclusion that today...as several others have when I try to do the right thing has been trumped by Murphy's Law. So I end up being Karma's Bitch.

Halloween Safety Tips
No Scaredy Cats This Halloween:
Top 10 Safety Tips for Pet Parents
Attention, companion animal caretakers! The ASPCA would like to point out these common-sense cautions that’ll help keep your pets safe and stress-free this time of year. If you do suspect your pet has ingested a potentially dangerous substance, please call your veterinarian or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center at (888) 426-4435.
1. No tricks, no treats: That bowlful of candy is for trick-or-treaters, not for Scruffy and Fluffy.
Chocolate in all forms—especially dark or baking chocolate—can be very dangerous for dogs and cats. Symptoms of significant chocolate ingestion may include vomiting, diarrhea, hyperactivity, increased thirst, urination and heart rate—and even seizures.
Candies containing the artificial sweetener xylitol can be poisonous to dogs. Even small amounts of xylitol sweetener can cause a sudden drop in blood sugar, which leads to depression, lack of coordination and seizures. In cases of significantly low blood sugar, liver failure has been known to occur.
Ingesting tin foil and cellophane candy wrappers can pose a choking hazard or cause intestinal blockage.
2. Popular Halloween plants such as pumpkins and decorative corn are considered to be relatively nontoxic, yet they can produce gastrointestinal upset should pets ingest them. Intestinal blockage could even occur if large pieces are swallowed.
3. Keep wires and cords from electric lights and other decorations out of reach of your pets. If chewed, your pet could experience damage to his mouth from shards of glass or plastic, or receive a possibly life-threatening electrical shock.
4. A carved pumpkin certainly is festive, but do exercise extreme caution if you choose to add a candle. Pets can easily knock a lit pumpkin over and cause a fire. Curious kittens especially run the risk of getting burned or singed by candle flames.
5. Dress-up can be a big mess-up for some pets. Please don't put your dog or cat in a costume UNLESS you know he or she loves it (yup, a few pets are real hams!). For pets who prefer their “birthday suits,” however, wearing a costume can cause undue stress.
6. If you do dress up your pet, make sure the costume isn't annoying or unsafe. It should not constrict the animal's movement or hearing, or impede his ability to breathe, bark or meow. Also try on costumes before the big night. If your pet seems distressed, allergic or shows abnormal behavior, consider letting him go au naturel or donning a festive bandana.
7. Take a closer look at your pet’s costume and make sure it does not have small, dangling or easily chewed-off pieces that he could choke on. Also, ill-fitting outfits can get twisted on external objects or your pet, leading to injury.
8. All but the most social dogs and cats should be kept in a separate room away from the front door during peak trick-or-treat visiting hours. Too many strangers can be scary and stressful for pets.
9. When opening the door for trick-or-treaters, take care that your cat or dog doesn't dart outside.
10. IDs, please! Always make sure your dog or cat has proper identification. If for any reason your pet escapes and become lost, a collar and tags and/or a microchip can increase the chances that he or she will be returned to you

Been a long time...
Wow, so much has been going on. I don't know where to begin....
My Kid went to see family members she hasn't seen in like 10 years and things didn't work out for the best. I ended up on the phone all night every night then I had my normal routines in the day.
It took awhile to bounce back from that plus I have been doing all the house work I can. I'm slow at it but I get it done...except for the laundry and the animal cages.
I went to the Two Left Paws fun run for charity. I was "Water girl" I'm happy to say I will be doing Administration work for the charity. I do one mobile a week as well. (That is where I go out and socialize the animals at the local Kmart, and try to get them adopted.)
Don't know if I mentioned Pierce has come and gone and my Uncle and friend Sharon is coming in about 15 days with their chow~chow (named Furby) and they are staying for a couple days. I haven't seen them for about 10 years. I am kind of worried cause they have never seen me since I got sick so they are in for some surprises.
Chris took me to see Dark Knight twice. It was so awesome. Lucky and I went to see Mamma Mia and yes we cried. We also went and got tattoos together. Sarah went with and got one too. I designed mine...pics will follow (as soon as Chris puts them on the comp) He's pretty happy with the laptop. A friend of his is back online and that has him in good spirits.
Lucky bought Ben a Lhasa Apso puppy.(for his Birthday) They are so cute. We used to have one named Candy. He named his Squeakers.....WOW.....it's a long shot from the Bulldog he wanted. I can't wait to tease him. (Snickers)
Sis has packed up and moved to Fla in time for Hurricane Faye and school to start. From what I hear the hurricane was a breeze and so is school.
Due to scheduling I won't be able to see my Shrink til Sept 19 I believe. I don't like going this long without seeing him. I've already felt down for the last few days...
Most my time is spent on housework, keeping up with my things online (except for rping) and spending the evenings watching shows with Chris then horror flicks with Pierce via phone.
I still feel an emptiness there.
Mickey is still missing. I really think he isn't coming back and I hate to admit it.
There are issues I have with some people I don't think will ever be brought to light....so much closure left undone.
Sometimes I feel I am loosing to my inner battles. I mean I have so much I do, things to really be proud of...and I am in the moment I am doing it, or talking about it ....all my animal work is really going places. I have this brag book of letters sent from congressmen and the white house and so on that I have been meaning to get together...I just never do. I have all the things I need for it too.
I have stacks and stacks of books I know I would get into and I adore reading yet I don't.
I tell myself I am doing OK because I still go out there into the outside. Even if it is for selfish reasons. I will leave the house for Two Left Paws, or to see a movie I want to see, or to get the tattoos covered I have been wanting to get done. (Only took me 15 years) but is it really good when I still take my anti anxiety meds before I go?
I work on going without them here at home and i do good with it. Sometimes I get all squirrely but I go without until I can't sleep or something...
I have been sleeping...only thing keeping me up is Pogo games, Pierce, and horror flicks...(since Lucky got home).
I feel better just writing this. It has been a long time....
I used to write all the time....
I need to get back to my guild but ...
There always is a but.
All talked out.

Well it started positive...
Nancy Grace is amazing. She tells it how it is yet allows both sides of the story to be told.
Glenn Beck is a pistol and he's not afraid to pop off and speak his mind. Gotta respect that.
Flo, the Progressive sales gal is hot and something tells me she's a bit of a freak. Yummy.
God Bless Caylee Anthony. She's the lil two year old whose been missing for six weeks. Her Mother Casey has been lying to everyone, she's in jail and I pray she rots in prison. All her calls made from the police station were full of cursing and smart ass remarks until she found out they were being taped. When she found out that she was being taped she started acting all sweet. What a snake. When she said she was out looking for her daughter she was really out partying and pics where found of her tramping it out at a bar on Hot Bod night. The grandmother, Cindy is horrid as well. She washed pants that "Smelled like death" and Casey had worn the last day that Caylee was seen alive.
I just hope she is found alive and the only one who knows if she is alive or dead is...her mother.
I can't stand the extent people will go to with lies, games and so on just to hurt other's.
Ugh! I am just sick with most people in general.
Still networking online to get Mickey's info out. I'm praying about this and I've given the information to everyone I can and more.
To worn out to write anymore.

MICKEY IS MISSING
Grr, I am so upset....frusterated and I want to be Super Angel and swoop in to save Mickey. Mickey has been missing for a few days now. I can't do anything except what I've done already.
I made flyers.
Lucky went down with two of her friends with some of Mickey's favorite toys. Hopefully if he hears the squeking he might come.
He's like 2or three hours away from home...without his tags on.
He's never been alone out there...in the woods.
I've contacted everyone I can via phone and Internet.
It's been storming here, lots of lightning and thunder ....I pray he is warm and safe....he hates storms.
My tummy hurts and I'm all nerved up but not enough to make Chris crazy he said.
He is doing all he can for me and I stayed close to him all day.
Pierce took the night shift....thanks! (Like he will ever read this)
Killing the time with texas Hold'em....
Please pray for the pup.
