Well he’s the one that gets/takes the blame

 

Befriend them and you can become their Queen.

 

Good Monday to all.

Our poor doggo had an encounter with Pepe LePew last night when I took him out for his evening business before bed. He ran back in the house before I could stop him (and before I even knew what had happened - I never saw the skunk, only caught wind of the smell as Huck ran past me), and the entire house was filled with the aroma. My wife and I bathed him last night, but it was still pretty bad. This morning my wife googled suggestions and found the following recommendations:

1) Put bowls of vinegar in every room that stinks, and if possible, boil vinegar and the steam will take away the stench (and yes it did!!)
2) Make a mixture of 1 quart Hydrogen Peroxide, 1/4 cup baking soda, and a couple teaspoons of Dawn or other dish detergent. Bath affected animal with this. This also worked like a charm!!

2023 is just not been my damn year..... between my wife's myriad of medical nigthmares, losing my job last month, and now this

 

Sorry Tom

 

Thank you. Been one of those years, I guess.

However, on a positive note, every time I think I'm getting the shit end of the stick, I remind myself of the Brad Paisley song 'One of Those Lives' on his "This is Country Music" album, and I realize I am far from being as bad off as many people are.

 

Morning folks. Lots of stupid crap to do, new glasses, vaccum bags for clothes, switching summer winter clothes.
Y'all be safe out there.

LIFE STINKS!



BTW, I am disappointed in the rest of you not picking up on the Dad joke and trying to provide a (sarcastic) smile to the man. "I'm not mad,,, just disappointed..."

 

pets,
I'm sure they are back in the house by now

 

Best wishes for your co-worker.

 

Gotta go full “Bill Murray”, besides we need some new UTube videos.

Up and around typical morning except without the morning part.

 

Good Evening Friends!

 

@MTgirl it belongs to my little brother now, but there are those 2 places he has somewhere in MT. I could look it up, he's about to head out there after he had to get rid of some tenants.

 

You can tune a piano, but you can’t tune a fish.
Opposable thumbs just saying. Evening friends.

 

Good Evening everyone

 

Evening Jim

 

we got a few acres.... could clear ya a spot in the woods. not sure how you like heavy dark woods out in BFE though.

white vinegar in a bowl works good in a room/car thats closed up. it will get teh smell out of AIR. but if its on the floors from his feet? you are gonna have to clean that.

now about the dog: real easy way is tomato juice bath. you dont need name brand & you dont need a tub full. put him in the tub, pour it over him & work it like its shampoo.

have no clue why this works, but they used it on us as kids & we have always used it on our kids & animals when they get "skunked".

 

I have a tower fan that makes great white noise I almost always run at night and for those occasions I have a hard time getting to sleep I take a couple Alieve.
