GOOD MORNING DEAR FRIENDS - HAPPY VOTING DAY
I will be glad when it is over - and may the best man win.
Today is also my husband's 66th birthday!
Okay I have had a rough week. First of all we had our chocolate episode with Disco. Then at my grandson's school one of his classmate's father died. He was 51. Just up and died. There are only 22 in his class they are family so all the kids were upset. We went to the wake on Sunday.
Then - ask Debbie at Just Breathe - I was trying to figure out how to add my friends to my reader - ahem - and I played around so much I lost everything! So I have been working for a couple days to get things back. So if I don't read your post I'm sorry. I am trying to find what the heck happened.
So a little humor will help me - what about you?

DISCO!
This was my little grandson (Disco) the night he ate chocolate - my other grandson is the real hero here. My hubs and I thought - well he had eaten it before and was okay ....anyway grandson begged us to take him in to the Animal ER - and when we did the doctor said he had a 50/50 chance of surviving!
He had IV fluids - charcoal treatments - they shave his little leg to put the IV in and he had fluids all night. He was also made to throw up. His heart rate was 260 and was very legarthic.
I hope he forgets this - he was abused as a puppy and I'd hate to think he was abused more.

Now you are going to laugh so hard you will almost die - I did - so I know.
Do you know what this is a picture of? Yes Disco. Yes on our sofa. Yes on his pillow. Yes upside down.
Poor baby thinks he paralyzed! It is getting cold here so we bought him a coat! Put him it on him. And he won't move! He turned over and refused to move. He played possum.
Now how will he keep warm upside down?
Now how will he keep warm upside down?
He must think what kind of crazy family did I get here - they let me eat chocolate, put me in a place where I get needles in my leg, then I come home and they put me in a straight jacket.
Although I do have my problem solved when people come over - lol.

I watched Katie on television yesterday and saw the devastation in NY and NJ.
We still need to pray and help them too.
And don't forget to vote.
Oh yeah and something I heard today on Good Morning America - sitting straight and not slouching can help rid depression. I guess it makes you feel better about yourself and people who stand straight do better at job interviews.

So sorry to hear about Disco...how frightening. Glad the little fur grandbaby is OK.
i was laughing out loud, and bob asked why, i said come see Disco. he laughed to. he said to tell you his daughter put one of these on her cat years ago and the cat did the same thing. if she put it on, the cat would lay like this and no move until they took it off. i have been thinking of one for Jake since he gets cold, but now i am wondering if i should or not. good thing you listened to GS and went to ER.
I'm am so glad you got Disco the help he needed and that it all turned out okay and that he can keep on bringing love and laughs to your family.
I"m so glad Disco is better- he is too cute!
I'm also so sorry about the 51 year old dad- was it a heart attack? That is too young!
Good entry. I never knew until the last year or so that chocolate would hurt a dog. Glad the little fellow is okay.
You are one more Dr. Doolittle I know that talks to animals and know what they say. You along with the girls from WI and The BRBOOMER have great conversations with the animals. LOL
Love from here!!!
Vote early and vote often. LOL
Oh I forgot to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the hubby. It is my girls BD also! Ain't we lucky?? YEP!
That is so scary about Disco! I'm so glad he's gonna be ok though.
oh my gosh poor disco, I'm still laughing!!!Poor little guy, hope he recovers,
poor disco...
and i'm sorry about the death of the classmate's father. so very sad.
happy birthday to your hubby!
I am so sorry about the death of a classmate's father. that is so sad.
I am glad Disco is better. I have heard that chocolate can be fatal for a dog.
Happy Birthday to your hubby! Hope poor little Disco will be okay now after that scary ordeal. And hope you get your friends list restored!
Take care and I hope we're celebrating tomorrow!!
I'm glad Disco is doing well! It's scary when our fur babies are sick, too. We got Benny a shirt to wear on Halloween and he LOVES it...he follows me until I put it back on. I think he likes the pressure from it. It's like a hug:)
Happy Birthday to hubby!
So sorry about the rough week. -sigh-
Oh and poor little Disco. Pooooor little doggie. IV, not fun. -pout-
But so glad you got him to the vet, in time. No-more-chocolate, Disco! "Auntie" sezzzzzzzzzzzzz... :-)
Quite a funny pic! Poop Factory! -chuckle-
Gentle hugs,
"Auntie"
Happy Birthday to your Hubby!!!
Disco just gave me tears from laughter! He's adorable!!! I'm so happy he's better, :)
Hugs,
Marie
I needed this laugh also! Poor Disco! But it is funny (the coat part not the chocolate). So glad he is OK> and Happy Birthday to your Hubby. hugs, Linda
Happy birthday to your husband!
Disco is a cutie. I know that must have been a scary thing for all of you.
Thanks for sharing my picture! =)
51 wow to early thats sad! Happy voting day to you too im way ready for it to be over! Happy birthday to your husband . Take care
I'm a bit of a sloucher - I'll try that sitting up straight. I'm glad Disco is OK!
Gosh, I swear if I don't stop here every single day, I miss all kinds of stuff! I'm so sorry about little Disco, but glad he is okay. That picture of him is a riot!! And the fact that he thinks he should lay like that! I would pick him up and hold him like a baby that needs to be burped! Awww...! We got Vern a coat, too, because he seemed cold outside...and sometimes inside! Happy Birthday to your hubby! Love your new template/header...but sorry you "lost" some stuff. That's why I'm always afraid to change things on my blog. Although I'm gettin' a hankerin" to change it! And On a serious note, how sad about the man who died.
First of all, Happy Birthday to your hubs! Many happy returns for today and all through the year to come!
And Poor Disco! I'm so glad he's okay. And I love the pic of him playing possum. LOL So cute.
And don't throw me of the bus, okay? I haven't been blogging as much (I come to visit, but I'm still computerless... this is an PIAD and I cen't work the thing). But pleae don't throw me off the bus. Sob!
XO,
Sheila
P.S. I voted! :-)
Sure glad Disco is OK! Love his coat!
Poor little Disco. I'll tuck him in my pup prayers. He's such a cutie, even upside-down. So, tell me that by now, he's upright! happy Birthday to your guy.
StayWarm and BlessingsAllRound
Poor baby! Are you sure you didn't velcro his man parts and he can't move? You know how guys are about their parts. LOL! Get that boy a soft sweater, with no straps.
Happy birthday to your hubby!
Happy Birthday to your Hubby today! Glad Disco is doing better. Choc is bad for dogs . Years ago my aging beagle ate a box full and was never the same. She lived a good while after that though and I think it was just old age when she died. Hope the rest of your week is a good one!
Yay to your hero grandson for being so concerned about dIsco. That is hilarious of Disco on the sofa. Trudy doesn't like it when I put a coat or sweater on her. She acts as though it restricts her movements. Happy Birthday to your hubby.
Very sad to hear when someone so young passes and very sorry for his family. I like it that your grandson is in a group of caring people. Sweet.
happy birthday to your hubby!!
xoxo
That is definitely a challenging week. Hope things are going better now. And that the little guy in the red plaid coat has decided no one is trying to be mean to him. :)
Oh those photos of Disco in his jacket just cracked me up! Thanks I needed a laugh. Poor thing!
Glad to hear Disco is doing better! Funny shots in the straight jacket:@)
How Funny- NOW! Disco has on a coat, but he lays on his back where his bare belly isn't covered and open to the elements - of your house!! Glad he's better!
Terrible about the father --- we're not promised a tomorrow!
I am laughing at Disco, that is just too funny. You should see Duke when I get out one of his sweaters. He goes nuts because he LOVES clothes
Happy 66 birthday boy... thanks for letting me know slouching can cause depression;))) hugs
Oh I loved your Scooby-do signature guy.
My goodness, hope your doggie is all better now. My doggie is more mature acting FINALLY! Man her puppy stages were so hard (poop issues). LOL
Hope this is a much better week for you!
Disco is quite a dog character! So cute! sorry that you have had a somewhat bad week..Hope things turn around real soon, as I know they will. Hang in there..
Shug
Disco is a riot! ... That pix is contest worthy!
... and yes, come your last line I made myself sit up straight!
I hope you find your reader. I love our conversations each day.
We know who the best man is :)
I voted. Again I am so happy that Disco is okay and can't believe him on that pillow...too cute.
Love the poop factory! Have a nice evening. I'm to tense to watch.
Bless your heart, Sandie... I'm so sorry that you have had a rough week...
That Disco is a funny one though... Funny about him playing possum.... ha ha
Sorry about your computer problems... It's NO FUN for sure!!!!!! Hope you got all of your info back.
I'm watching the election results.....
Hugs,
Betsy
Well gee Sandie you had more then your share. Hope things are better now and hope your hubby had a nice birthday in spite of all your hassle.
Happy birthday to your hubby, Sandie! I hope he had a good day! Disco is so cute in that coat; wonder if he will ever get used to it? So glad he made a recovery! I bet he won't be too traumatized, unless you take him back to the vet's for any reason, but then maybe he won't even then. Koda, with all the things he's gone through, he loves the vet's (because they of course give him treats :)
betty
Yes...nice matters. I hope Disco is feeling chipper by now. Poor little guy.
I sure hope Disco feels better...he sure is a cutie pie! I voted!
And Happy Birthday to hubby! I hope he had a fun day...and got some cake! Maybe not chocolate though! Better keep that out of the house for awhile! Hugs!
I had a similar problem a few days ago and I went ballistic! You probably had a much better sense of humor about it than I did!
Bless your little granddog's heart! But I must get those coats for my two crazy dogs.....glad the little fella made it!
I lost all my blog friends once....I never knew what really happened, but after much work I was able to reconnect. It sure is frustrating.
Cute , cute pictures of Disco!!
So sad about the young father.......
Sugar, I have a new address. I am going to try and email you so be looking, otay? Coming at you soon.
xoxoxoxoxox,
Sheila
Sorry bout the puppy! I've heard chocolate is poison for puppies.
And he best man just won. Thank goodness.
Oh Sandie...Soooooo glad Disco is alive and recuperating. He is a riot, isn't he?
Thanks for all your visits and comments to my blog, Sandie. You are a dear. Susan
Oh Sandie.
Only you can make me tear up about Disco's plight - and then laugh out loud at the possum in the coat! I am thrilled to hear that he's OK - and give the GS a big hug for being such a hero!
Happy birthday to Hubby. And my condolences to GS's classmate (and to all the kids) - what a tragedy. Prayers to the family.
GOD BLESS!
It is obvious Disco has a statement to make about the jacket. LOL
LOL! I love the "straight jacket" trick for when company comes... an inadverdant discovery! Excellent!
That is really sad about your GS's classmate's dad. Just goes to show how precious each day of life is.
I'm sitting straighter now! ;)
Disco the possum is hilarious! I've never seen anything any cuter. I'm just so glad you listened to your grandson and took him to the Animal ER.
Sitting up straighter now. I need all the help I can get with my depressed spirit this morning.
Happy Birthday to your husband!
BTW, it's hard to sit up straight when your boobs pulls you forward.
Don't ask me how I know.
Sorry to hear about Disco...he looked a bit cute in his coat. And he was laying like that?! Glad he is ok now!
Sad about GS school mates Dad :(
Happy Birthday a day late to your husband.
I'm sorry to hear about your grandson's classmate's father. That is so young and must be very hard for a child.
Poor Disco, but hopefully he was too sick to remember most of it! I think I'd forget about the coat.
Wow, what a week! So sorry about your grandson's friend's father, wow, we never know do we? Hope your sweet doggy recovers quickly!
Happy Birthday to your husband!
So sorry to hear about the father of a child dying like that at such a young age. My daughter had a friend whose dad died at the age of 40.
Disco is a hoot in that coat upside down! I think he's spoiled and not abused at your house! lol I'm so glad that he is all better now!
oh Chatty....I'm sorry the week has been rough for you....usually when I have a week like that the next one is the opposite. Praying that for you. Happy B to your hubby and tons of hugs to you....
Hi Sandy ~~ I am sorry about your losing everything. I always liked the clever headings that you had.
If ever you can think of something I might have (link, common friend link, or e-mail and the like) that could help you please let me know.
Disco is the perfect dog for you. He is the luckiest dog too to be able to live with you all.
When Adi swallowed a can opening key with the spiral of tin from the open can the vet made her vomit by putting drops in her eyes. Withing ten minutes she OD'd if they didn't want to make such a bad scene. Their objective there is to make them NEVER want to go through with OD'ing again.
You can see we are home and I got long as I often do. KP is on my latest blog and looking at her smiley face might cheer you up a bit too.
Re: grandson's friend's 51-year-old father, we never know which of our day's will be our last. Always be ready for that so that it will be a joyous occassion.
..
Oh, Sandie, Disco's reaction to the doggie coat is sooo funny! Even funnier was your line about knowing what to do when people come to the house.
Sandy,
Hi! Sorry to hear about Disco eating chocolate. It's hard to believe that chocolate can be deadly to dogs if they eat it. Hope you have a good week-end.
Pat @ Pat's Pink Apron
I am so glad Disco is OK. I am very glad the elections are over! I hope you enjoy your weekend.
glad to see Disco is back home and enjoying himself...sort of...on the sofa....I still think dogs are not meant to be put in clothes....one more thing and he might just turn you guys in for a new family.....never happen...your the best!!
I am still laughing at Disco's photo LOL LOL....Your week sure was a downer...i pray all is better.
Hi Sandie,
I hope your grandson's dog, Disco is getting better by now.
I love his pictures.
Thank you for sharing your world!
Have a great weekend, Sandie!
Blessings,
Poet Starry.
Belated Birthday to your Husband .
I guess hubby is second best with Disco having al the attention.
Oh my I cannot stop laughing at Disco. He is so stiff and looking so uncomfortable but wants someone to pick him up it looks.For goodness sakes someone give the poor babe a T.L.Care Hug.Poor Babe.
Oh how sad for the man's family that loss him so young.
You sure have had a bad week girl.
I kept looking for your blog to pass down on my list and know you.
Now I know.
I did like the youtube on forgetting. Is that funny.
Yes , the vote is over. Well I never thought you guys would see another 4 years of the bad and the ugly again.
Do you need prayer for your country.
Hugs
Carol Ann
Our labradoodle ate an 8 oz box of chocolates one Christmas. We came home from church to find her running around in circles. Scary. Luckily she made it through and I'm so glad Disco did as well!
