Celie and My Day Off




I had 2 days off and was so happy to rest the first day and that is exactly what I did. So I was rested up for ."Celie-Bug". We had fun today I must say, with all the trips to the pond to see Wally gator. Yes we have a gator in our pond and and he looks very mean. He will follow you as you ride around the pond, it is really scary to me. Celie loves him/her I don't know how you can tell and I am not going to investigate as to which it might be. But from it's actions I feel it might be a girl who is being protective of some babies maybe??? I am ready for someone to come and get it out of the pond, I don't want it to eat my dogs as they are really tasty to the alligator. He/She is creepy let me tell you and probably has eaten all our fish or the turtles have. We have 2 turtles in the pond also, I have no idea as to where they came from. But they all need to go back!!!


Celie was a champ today!!! Matthew came in with just a cup of 3/4's water and 1/2 teaspoon of prune juice mixed together, or just water you could call it. It tasted terrible and the reason I know Celie wanted me to try it-gross is the word. I think lemon would taste better and for sure no sugar. She started out on the ill side because she had to be woken up and who likes that I know I don't. I think next time I will go over and just let her sleep until she wakes up. Sounds good to me!!! When Matthew came in I asked was this all he had, no diaper and he said "no", just make sure she goes before nap time. Well nap time came and went and Celie bug did not have any accidents while sleeping and I was so proud of her. After she woke up she didn't want to put her shorts back on so she went around with panties and a shirt.She had fun playing with Bailey until puppy like, started biting with those razor sharp teeth and toenails. I am also proud of my Bailey, so smart already.

she is doing so well! I am so proud of her and the length of time it took her to be trained. Now, we can buy small, baby diapers and stock up on those for a while instead of spending a fortune on the jumbo diapers she was wearing. The prune juice is nasty to me but she LOVES it. I guess since she has had to drink it since she was about 8 weeks old, she just thinks it is part of the yummy things she gets. I made the mistake of asking her if she wanted me to taste something abut 3 weeks ago and now we get to taste EVERYTHING, gross.

There is no telling what time she will wake up today - probably same time as always - but she was up ALL NIGHT last night with a tummy ache b/c she won't poop. I know she has to go b/c it is literally dripping out of her but she refuses to push it out after the dramatics of last weekend. I think she has a little tear on her hiney or something that makes it painful to push it out. I have had them and know it is not fun, but she has got to get over it. Bless her heart.
