Argh!!!

Today was slightly stressful. The day started out fine. I worked on the computer, and listened to some online books. We had a vet appointment scheduled for both dogs, just a yearly exam. But right before we were to leave, I discovered that Tallie had rolled in, well....poop. So Mom washed her front while I washed her collar. Then we were blow-drying her, and she still smelled awful! So we washed her again, and then she smelled better. A few minutes late, we were on our way. But then, when we were about to get on the interstate, the car started doing funny things, like it's done three other times this year! So Mom pulled off to the side of the road, and then we called the vet, Gram, Dad, and then Dad called the tow truck. As if that wasn't enough, a vagrant-looking hitchhiker came up right behind us! Thankfully, he turned around and walked away. Right then, I was so glad for the dogs!! Gram reached us, and then we had to carefully load everyone in the car. So, I was stuck between the two dogs, and Tallie was still wet, and she didn't smell like really great. That was the bad part of the day. The good part was the fact that we got a new car today! Mom and Dad bought it yesterday, so it came just in time. The car is wonderful! I'll try to post some pictures later....

No, they didn't make it to the vet, and we really need that sedative for Big Boy. We'll have to do it Friday! The pictures of the new car are above. See ya very soon! :)
