Sunday is always the day I spend recovering from what usually is an awesome weekend! It is also the day I take my dog to the park to mingle, as she is the only child she can get very lonely. The heat wave pasted and I set out for the park with the dog hanging out the window of my car.
In the 5 minutes that it took me to get to the park the weather changed from sunny hot to thundering blow you over wind. While fighting the wind, trying to keep my dress down and my dog from blowing away, I also had two very annoying birds bombing my dog. Yes you heard me right. The 2 of them were flying over my dog and swooshing down on her every chance they got, she’s not the biggest of dogs and does somewhat resemble a rat (a really big rat).
After 40 minutes of hair flying, bird swooshing, dog chasing I was home and had every intention of bathing the dog (it’s my little way of getting her evil a$s back). I couldn’t find her towel so had to climb up my cupboard to get another one. (Climbing up the cupboard is a fairly often occurrence for me as I’m too lazy to get a chair.) Now there’s no harsher ways of being told / hinted you have gained weight than your cupboard shelf breaking under your feet, you falling painfully out your cupboard while it takes all the skin off your arm and proceeds to fall on top on you. I calmly (not loud) screamed at the top of my voice and managed to swear in all the languages that I know, curled up into the fetal position and rocked myself till the pain stopped. At some point I must of alerted the cousin that something had happened. When she came in to see what was wrong, she proceed to laugh at me hysterically. Since when has my pain become her amusement?
I now have a very sore arm with what looks like razor cuts all over it and a broken shelf. But on the brighter side I did eventually manage to bath my dog, that is to say with great difficulty.
Ps: I keep getting looks of disgust from complete strangers, seriously I fell, it's not what you think.!!
