Twosday Thawts

Kraine kicked the Bear again,,, And the bear is showing intrepid levels of patience,,,  All I can say to this recent debacle: someone(s) in high places is trying to kick off WWIII in a bad way for reasons of thier very own.   Maybe just some old skool cold war armchair warriors that want a return to that time period.   Having just had a foray into the past (in a sense) I HIGHLY discourage that particular trip,,,,  Leave the past in the past and keep putting your feet forward.   There is only one way out of this ‘reality’ and it ain’t back there,,,,  Live and learn, YES, but don’t dwell there .

Rules based orders are falling the wayside as bottom up control handles emergencies better, as has been seen in North Carolina/Tennessee area where the hurricane is still imposing its will on that area.   Rafting companies are slowly making a comeback in the area but the rivers have all changed.   Still, locallocallocal is the key there and FedGuv is all thumbs and busted big toes.

Lack of things to talk about as I am busier than a three peckered goat at work, and by the time I make it home, to hyper-excited puppers that wants to run and jump and nip (NO!) just have a grand old time with the wore-out old man,,,,

At least Zoomies returned to the fold yesterday, if only for an hour or so: but he did make headway in showing acceptance of Cosmos,,,, no head strops YET, but they did touch noses and allow full sniffies without trauma or dramas.  Double plus good in Dio’s book!!!

I need to make a follow-up appointment at the Vets for Cozzie.   He’s doing good, and I want to keep that ball rolling.   His adjustments are narrowing down to “dawg-door” and “Stay”    I still leave him on the run in the mornings when I go to the J.O.B. since if I don’t, I end up carting his butt back.   He doesn’t want me to leave, but I sure can’t have him running hells bells around the J.O.B.; especially on days like today where I wasn’t even THERE,,, but out on a jobsite 45 minutes away,,,,  

Nopes,,, He needs to learn that STAY command means ‘daddy will be home later’, and hes the ‘Dawg of the house’ till I return.   ‘Dawg of the house’ has responsibilities; protect the other housemates and keep the evil Pack at bay.    Being puppers still, he hasn’t grasped that concept quite yet,,,,,   

Learning curves,,,,, we all has ’em.    but he is learning his, a bit a time, and I’m being patient.    He’s actually come a lot further than I expected, so there is that.

(and we just had a wee bit of drama between Zooms and Coz,,, just a nose whack, but Coz HAD stuck his nose in a bit quickly, surprising Zooms,,,,  BUT, Zooms is not totally freakin’ out about ‘stinky dawg on my porch’ like he had been. )(and note, Coz doesn’t stink, but he is Dawg, and all dawgs ‘stink’ to Kats,,,)

More fun at the J.O.B. tomorrows,,, its getting near dusk here in the hills, and this ol’ grump is a little stiff and sore (though not nearly as bad when I first came home,,, that shower worked WONDERS on this old body.)
