Let me start with who Artie is: he is our fox that is a vegetarian. I swear he is! His name is from the fact he loves marinated artichokes.

yea, I know, weird. :nono:

I do not cook well. But with Michael being hurt and the weather, I decided to cook something special.

I made Ratatouille tonight with pasta. It smelled so good and I tried it and it tasted really awesome. I was sooooo happy with what I made.

The kids come and sit down, our daughter is just sitting there. I ask her what's wrong and she says her stomach isn't feeling well.

We sit down about to eat... and Mei Li throws up all over the table-- and our one son sees this and he starts throwing up.

So, I clean it all up, put the bowl of food on the table after picking up the table cloth. Michael carries her into the bedroom and cleans her up and stops her from crying.

After a little while, we come back -- and there is Artie sitting and happily eating out of the bowl. THE DARN FOX ATE OUR WHOLE DINNER.

He never gets up on the table and I don't even know how he did -- but he did.

We're having popcorn for dinner when we watch Hell's Kitchen.

I swear, this week can't get woorse -- can it? :scratch:
 
You seriously have some funny stories. I think red told me you guys had a fox.

Oh and I hope the kids feel better so I guess if they are eating popcorn they must be.

Our daughter is our bed wtih Michael. She's got some kind of stomach flu. The boys are getting ready for bed, they do have school tomorrow.

I'm going to have popcorn for dinner :popcorn:
 
:laughing: I have a dog that will climb into my chair and sit and stare at the empty plate like he is waiting for dinner to be served to him. :laughing:

lol.

My Mom use to have a toy poodle. One day, we heard her whimpering. It was only my brother, sister and I at home and we were all upstairs.

She was standing on the counter. No chairs around her and she was little and old. :scratch:

To this day, noone has a clue how she got up there but the Chocolate Sweepstakes & Giveaways cake we had was totally gone :laughing:
 
:nono: What a shame after all your hard work. I'm sure Michael still appreciated your efforts at making dinner. At least you know you can do it! Hope Mei Li is feeling better soon.

:nono: Warning: Never say you don't know how things can get worse or they will!!
 
Like humans, foxes are omnivores-they love watermelon and strawberries too!
You've checked the pantry for any recalled peanut butter products, right? :scratch:

Many years back we had an adult lab and a shepard puppy. Well, the puppy was really tiny. He had been abandoned at 2 weeks of age. Well, at this point he was maybe 5 weeks old. Well, I had been getting dressed for work, in the bedroom. I came out, walked around the corner and heard the little guy squeak barking like puppies do. I went over to him to see what was wrong and the lab walked up to me at the same time. I looked into the kitchen and there was trash all over. New little brother was look-out for his big sister! :laughing: From that day on, they tag teamed me all the time. They were so funny together. :sunny:

We don't eat it. Justin and Daniel are both allergic to it. Not bad but both break out in hives and rashes.

Mei Li slept with us laast night. About 2am, Justin came down complaining he's sick. So, we had two of the kids with us. Everyone is still asleep in the house. We've got the stomach flu that is going around their school.

Wolfie, that is so funny.

We found a dog, named Dharma, last year in the middle of the road in Richmond. Literally. She had been dumped and was pregannt.

She had 4 puppies and I swear one will play lookout for the others.

:laughing:
 
How can people just dump their dogs? I know certain breeds are dumped because they don't do the jobs they were bred to do, but where the ^(&^(& is compassion?

People can dump their children, parents, grandparents...we woke up one day to find my blind great aunt on the front porch. Sitting in the rocking chair, with her few worldly goods piled beside her. Her son had just left her there in the middle of the night.

Wow Red! How awful for her.

I hope you beat your cousin!

No way, I'd be afraid I would get his blood on me...and start shambling the streets looking for brains to eat. He is beyond creepy. She was much happier with us, gained weight, learned about good stuff for the Blind like books on tape... lived to be 89. :sunny:
 
Oh red I am glad they left her with you. Now I have the best true dog ate stuff story of anyone. And I swear it is totally true;
I was cooking the Thanksgiving dinner for my dh family for the first time. We had been married all of 6 months and the mil does not think much of me at this point. Well the turkey was in the oven and just about done. I was trying to cook everything the day before so I could just warm it on thanksgiving. Well I relized we did not have enough potatoes for the mashed potatoes and living out in the middle of no where, dh said he would take me to town about 15 miles away. I turned the turkey to warm and off we went, after we scraped up enough change to buy the potates. time were very hard back then and it took about all of my budget to buy all the food for the dinner. Well when we got home I opened the door and started screaming. Our lovely Shitzu and German Shepard mix had somehow gotten the oven door open and pulled the turkey out of the oven, got it out of the big broiler pan and eaten well over half of it and smeared the other half all over my newly cleaned kitchen floor and newly shampooed living room carpet. Needless to say I was upset. And the worst part was I didn't have any money to buy another turkey. :laughing: Those were the days. We called everyone and told them dinner was off we both had the flu. :laughing: To this day my mil thinks we had the flu and I will never tell her different. Good thing she is not got a computer. :laughing: Love them critters.
 
My sister had a dog named Yogi, after Yogi Berra.

One day,her BF at the time was making a peanut butter sandwich. He turned and put the peanut butter away and turned back.. and the sandwich was gone. Yogi was sitting by him, with the sandwich in her mouth partially sticking out.

Terry turned away aagin and Yogi started to chew. He turned back and she STOPPED! :laughing:

That went on a couple of times, he turn away, she'd chew, he'd turn back she's stop. Finally, he just stood there and stared at her. She would NOT chew.

I don't know if the dog thought she was clever, but she sat and drooled for a few minutes instad of chewing.

Finally, she ran out of the room and into the bedroom and finished the sandwhich. :laughing:

This was the same dog that figured out how to open the refrig (it was a pull down handle) and they had to put a lock on the refrig after a couple of her raids :nono: :laughing:
 
Dog is thinking "I'm not eating it, see, see, not eating it, just holding it in my mouth..."
Dog logic is so wonderful...if a dog was governor of Illinois I'll bet things would run better....

From what I've seen in that state, that would be a good idea.

I would say David is as sick as a dog right now, but I have rarely seen a dog sick

THe only time he's getting up is to go throw up.

The whole family is now sick here. yeah :nono:
