Annie Lennox really nailed it, didn't she? It feels like I'm walking on broken glass. Walking on broken glass!
Hrm.
I came home today, thinking I would walk my dog. Came up the drive way on the scooter and crunch! I ran over glass. It was weird. Got off the bike and realised that Clio had found a box with old drinking glasses wrapped in newspaper. Not amused. Looked over to her bed and saw a complete glass in her bed. The little bugger! So, I cleaned up the glass and that was enough to give me a headache. I started wondering whether she had swallowed any, so I checked her over and it appears she is ok, though you can't be certain.
Anyway, I got it all cleaned up. I went inside and did a few things. Next thing, my friend came over with her dogs. They had been driving her nuts too, so she had brought them over to give them a nice outing. So, Clio and the dogs, as usual rough-housed and ran around like fools. Clio has a tendency to harass and harass them until they want to kill her. So, my friend and I went inside, because they tend to carry on less. Well, next thing I see is Clio barrelling around. And if anyone knows how puppies run around, they usually move with their arse first. It's like a big sweeping motion, arse first, head and shoulders kinda follow. Clio swings her big labrador arse around near the back door and CRACK. One of the glass panels in the back door developed a huge hellish crack in it and I about lost my noodle!
Ok, so now the window has heaps of sticky tape keeping it together and a piece of wood covering it with two large pot plants guarding it. I am greatly unimpressed with my big arsed hound. But the key is the theme - it's Glass Day! And it's only Monday. I wonder if tomorrow is Fence Day, and maybe Wednesday will be Plant Day!
Seriously, this dog has ensured our backyard is sparse and that everything is stored in the workshop out the back. I could kill her. I would like to hang her. I didn't mention that last week, our new Fibretek lead which we bought from dog training a while ago, was chewed up beyond use. Today, she got another hold of it and today, it's in two pieces.
Now, I must log off. I must relax and not think about the broken window out the back and the fact that my dog is el destructo.
