MONEY PUPS

SO MY HUSBAND CALLS ME TO TELL ME HE IS GONIG TO MICHIGAN ON FRIDAY TO GET A DOG. JUST HOW I WANT TO SPEND MY FRIDAY NIGHT...ALONE! BUT I SHOULD BE HAPPY SEE, THIS DOG COMES FROM GREAT BLOODLINES AND IS ONLY $300. THE DOG HE ORIGINALLY WANTED COMES FROM THE SAME BLOODLINES AND WAS $15OO! SO THIS ONE IS A BARGIN. AND HE IS GOING IN WITH A BUDDY SO IT IS ONLY $150! KEEPS GETTING BETTER! AND IT IS A MALE AND IN ONE STUD FEE HE WILL HAVE MADE BACK ALL HIS MONEY! SOUND GREAT RIGHT?! WE WILL SEE HOW THIS GOES! WE ARE ALSO GETTING MY FEMALE BRED AND SO WE WILL HAVE BEAGLE PUPS IN ABOUT TWO AND A HALF MONTHS! THEY ARE SO CUTE! IF YOU HAVE NEVER HAD THE JOY OF SEEING ONE YOU NEED TO! WHEN I FIRST MET MY HUSBAND AND WE HAD OUR FIRST LITTER OF PUPS I WAS HOME ONE DAY. I WENT TO THE BARN TO CHECK ON THEM AND ONE WAS NOT DOING SO GOOD. SINCE THE MOTHER IN LAW IS A VET I CALLED HER. SHE SAID I COULD BOTTLE FEED IT AND SEE IT THAT WOULD WORK TO HELP IT. I SAID I WILL BE RIGHT IN TOWN TO GET THE MILK STUFF. I TRIED TO USE THE BOTTLE AND IT DID NOT WORK, SO I TRIED A SYRINGE. NOT A GOOD IDEA. IT GOT MILK INTO ITS LUNGS AND BASICALLY DIED IN MY HAND. JUST AS MY HUSBAND CAME THROUGH THE BARN DOOR. I BURST INTO TEARS AND WAS SOBBING. HE TOOK THE PUP TRIED TO GET IT BACK, LOOKED AT ME AND SAID IT WOULD BE ALRIGHT. TO MY HUSBAND, YOU SEE, THESE ARE JUST DOGS, TO ME THEY ARE LIKE PART OF THE FAMILY. WE DO NOT JUST HAVE ONE SON AND ANOTHER CHILD ON THE WAY, WE HAVE CURRENTLY FOUR DAUGHTER BEAGLES, TWO SON BEAGLES, ONE DAUGHTER LAB, ONE DAUGHTER MIX YARD DOG, AND ONE WIENER DOG MIX DAUGHTER. I LOVE MY PETS. THE RABBITS NOT SO MUCH, BUT THEY ARE GROWING ON ME! AFTER I EXPLAINED TO MY HUSBAND THAT WAS NOT THE FIRST TIME I CRIED OVER A PET AND IT WILL DEFINITELY WILL NOT BE THE LAST TIME I CRY FOR ONE. HE HAS NEVER SAID ANYTHING ABOUT ME CRYING WHEN SOMETHING HAPPENS TO OUR PETS. WE ALSO HAVE TWO GREAT CAT SONS IN THE BARN TOO. THE ONE GIRL WE HAVE IS KINDA A TRAMP! TILL NEXT TIME!

WELL MY HUSBAND IS IN MEXICO SINCE LAST WEEK SO THIS WEEKEND WAS NOT TOO EVENTFUL. MY HUSBANDS COUSIN DID TAKE ONE OF OUR BEAGLES TO A HUNT. WE HAVE ONE THAT IS ONE WIN AWAY FROM BECOMING A CHAMPION. ONCE SHE IS A CHAMPION, WE CAN GET MORE MONEY OUT OF HER PUPS! MY HUSBAND WILL BE BACK ON SATURDAY AND I AM SURE HE WILL BE IN THE WOODS ON SUNDAY! WE ALSO GOT A NEW BUNNY THIS WEEKEND. MY SON PICKED OUT A LIONHEAD BUNNY. I THINK IT IS A GIRL, BUT I CAN NOT TELL BUNNIES APART! SO IT IS BY ITSELF FOR NOW. WE CURRENTLY HAVE ABOUT 50 BABY BUNNIES SO I DO NOT THINK WE NEED ANY MORE! WELL CATCH YOU ALL LATER.

NOTES ON SELF

LET ME EXPLAIN A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT ME. I READ THE FIRST BLOG AND THOUGHT HOW LAME! MY HUSBAND IS A VERY AVID HUNTER OF EVERYTHING WITH LEGS! (ANIMALS OF COURSE!) HE HUNTS DEER, BIRDS AND HIS PASSION IS RABBITS. SO MUCH SOWE RAISE ARE OWN SO HE CAN WORK WITH THE DOGS IN THE OFF SEASON. I AM STILL NOT SURE WHEN THE OFF SEASON IS THOUGH. HE TAKES THE DOGS OUT EVERY WEEKEND. NOW DO NOT THINK I AM COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS ALL THE TIME. IT MEANS THAT EVERY SATURDAY MORNING I AM HUSBANDLESS! NOT ALL BAD! I GET TO DO SUCH GREAT THINGS LIKE LAUNDRY AND DISHES WITH OUT HIM ASKING "WHAT ARE YOU DOING"! SO THIS DOES HAVE ITS ADVANTAGES. HOWEVER, THE DISADVANTAGES ARE GREAT. IF I WANT TO GO SOMEWHERE, I HAVE TO TAKE OUR 2YEAR OLD SON WITH ME OR FIND SOMEONE TO WATCH HIM. NOT ALWAYS EASY. MY HUSBND ASSURES ME, HE WILL BE TAKING HIM WITH HIM ALL THE TIME NEXT YEAR! WE WILL SEE!

WELL THIS IS THE FIRST ENTRY HERE. MY HUSBAND GOES HUNTING EVERY WEEKEND SO I THOUGHT I WOULD JOT DOWN A LITTLE OF MY THOUGHTS ON IT SOMEWERE SO HERE I AM. NOT SURE WHERE HE WILL GO OFF TO THIS WEEKEND, BUT HE WILL BE GOING.
