Couch Potato



Do you wonder why I haven't posted?   I've turned into a couch potato!  Here I am... this morning... my dad bundled me up at 4 am on the couch because I was cold!  Mom took these photos at 9am... I still hadn't gotten up!  

Yup, I'm spoiled!

Accident...




Dixie here... I have a boo-boo paw.  Yesterday in the afternoon I was sitting in one of the mesh chairs on the porch instead of sitting in my own plush seated one.  I jumped off the seat and one of my toe nails was caught in the mesh and I ripped it out.  Mom heard the crash as the chair fell over, but I didn't cry. 

She saw The Biscuit looking at what she thought was a worm or something in the center of the tipped over chair and realized it was my nail!  She got bandages and packed my foot to stop the bleeding, and I didn't cry.  Then she brought me in the house and put me in my parlor chair and proceeded to wash my toe with peroxide after she looked up what to do...

That's when I cried... sort of a delayed reaction.  That stuff stings - no wonder kids hate it when you wash their cuts and scrapes!  Anyway, she wrapped it with a bandage after she put antibiotic ointment on it and I've been hopping around. 

Today I feel better but don't touch it!  I'm chilling in my porch chair, and as you can see, the bandage is in place.  I've been a good girl and not chewed it off! 

By the way, my nail won't grow back...
