For you guinea pig fans---have you seen the 2013 Guinea Pig Games calendar? It has photos of guinea pigs participating in Olympic-type games. This article online has some hilarious photos of 'pigs biking, hurdling, swimming, etc. Pretty cute!

I was never bitten by any of my guinea pigs, but they liked to lick my fingers now and then.

Welcome Back!!!! In case you missed it, we are all moving to the middle of nowhere and starting our own town. You were elected to be the physical trainer because someone has to keep us in shape after we eat all of those cakes from Christmasstar.

Good/sad day at work yesterday. As far as everyone I work for and all the customers, always a good day! They really make me happy. We also had a lot more dogs than usual come in with their "parents" and I just love that! They all get hugs and treats from me!

The sad news was a lady brought in her Macaw Parrot that just passed away. She was in a panic and was asking us would we possibly know what could have happen to it. We do sale animal medication and know a little about treating minor animal illness but we are not vets. We have helped her in the past with other animals so she just thought we might be able to figure something out. All we could really do is suggest taking the bird into a vet for a possible autopsy. She said the bird was perfectly healthy yesterday and suddenly passed away in the morning. The sad thing was is how she broke down crying and stroking the bird. I started to cry, I felt so bad for her. I love to work with animals and have thought, in a way, it would be great to work for a vets office. I know for a fact I could never ever handle that! Too many tragedies and I would be a wreck all the time. Those Macaws are like having a child, they have large personalities. I really felt bad for her and did the best to console her. I just hope she finds out what happen to that poor baby. It was such a beautiful bird!

Speaking of people bringing their dogs in, we do have several people bring their birds (on their shoulder), cats, pigs, horses and more with them. Fun place to work. I do better working in a place where mostly healthy animals show up but occasionally someone brings in a very sick animal and it just breaks my heart!

like you, I would have also been crying with her. I hope she can find out what happened to her precious pet.

I hope everybody had a great weekend. We celebrated Epiphany or "little" Christmas yesterday with our yearly ritual of a huge pot of my wife's jambalaya. She forgot that we were having family over who do not like spicy foods and she poured a can of tomatoes with green chilies into it along with using spicy italian sausage. Many glasses of water were consumed by all of us. Our parents brought over some more chocolate treats for the kids to put in there lunch boxes. The kids opened their last few presents (we had to hide them at my office all week because they couldn't keep their hands off of them under the tree). Then we had to take the tree down and out to the street since they are picking them up this morning. As I worked on the tree, the Mrs. and the kids went around the house and gathered up all of the dying holly and greenery and took the candles out of the windows. Even with those chores done, we still have about 90% of the decorations still up. This will be a long slow process getting them down. I plan to tackle it for about 30 min. to an hour each night. At that rate, we may be completely done by Sunday. Maybe.

Have a great week.

that sounds like so much fun! Taking down the decorations is for me as much a part of Christmas as putting them up. It gives me a chance to clean, repair and decide which to keep and which really need to go now. It also takes me more than one day to get it all done.
I thought I was when I looked up in the kitchen and started to laugh, there was a garland still over the sink. You would think it would be obvious!!! LOL

Good Monday morning everyone.

Sorry I have been away so long. It has been a stressful few weeks. Both of my parents have spent time in the hospital. Mom spent 3 weeks in the hospital. Both are home now. Dad is doing ok. Mom is terminal. She has good days and bad days. The past few have been good. She insisted on taking care of both their funeral arrangements so we did that last Friday. She keeps fighting and looking ahead.

Thanks to everyone for all your prayers. Have a blessed day everyone.

But you have to keep watching to see how many more creepy comments about the players girlfriends the announcers can make. It's time for Musburger to retire.
