Date night, and Hot Dog!

I'll start off by saying me and Dusty's day off together was very nice :) Saturda morning we slept in then got ready and went to the mall. We did some shopping and decided to go to lunch. We thought we'd go to Rosies because i LOVE Rosies plus, we have a gift card ;). SO we go to Rosies and there is a 25 minute wait. Not too bad. But we are impatient. So we left and thought HEY, let's go to that new Five Guys Burger place. But we couldn't find it. So after we finally find it, we walk in and the place is PACKED. So, of course, we leave and walk a little ways to Quizno's. I usually really like quizno's, but this time.. yikes. So we walk in and all the employees are all willy nilly just hanging out. And the girl who is making my sandwich picks up the pile of Turkey and puts it on the scale. The turkey (i kid you not) had like SNOT like GOOP dripping from the turkey and was all over the scale and turkey now. Even the girl said "EW, gross i do NOT know what that was..." So she threw the turkey away and reached into a new bin of Turkey.. with teh same goopy glove....on the SAME GOOPY SCALE! i watched in disgust and she kept making the sandwich. And i am Shy. I didn't say anything but I kept giving Dusty the "I wanna leave" look. So after our sandwiches were done we sat down and i told him about the goop. By then it was a huge deal because i hadn't told them earlier and now i didnt' want the sandwich. So we spent $15 bucks for these sandwiches and just got up, threw them away, and left. Me and Dusty were both in a mood then haha. So, we took our hungry selves to good ol cheeburger cheeburger. WHich was yummy :) All that for a burger and fries. Then Sunday Dusty had really bad stomach pains and we couldn't decided whether to take him to Urgent Care or to just wait it out or what. So we both stayed home from church. We thought he might have appendicitis or something. Quite scary.


Now, Get a load of my puppy. After this story, you will officially be SO glad she isn't your pup. OKay so Sunday as Dusty was all sickly laying in bed, I was laying by him watching tv. We'd been watching tv for a while, with no sight of Ellie in a couple minutes. So i got up and was calling her. And i walked into the living room to find THIS!!!!

Turns out, Ellie jumped up on the computer chair and got a black Ink Pen off of the desk and chewed it to PEICES all over one of our couch pillows. Then dug her grimy paws into all the ink and walked around the living room.

Oh these pictures don't do the real thing justice. When i first saw it, I saw my high heels under the desk and thought OMG ELLIE TORE UP MY SHOES! but Noooo.. she only Ruined the carpet haha. The worst part of it was, a couple weeks ago, i was going to post a blog about how me and my dad rented a carpet cleaner and cleaned ALL the carpet int he house. So, i picked up Ellie and put her in the tub upstairs. THe water was freezing so i turned it all the way to hot to let it warm up a little and left her in there while I went to get a wash cloth and some soap a (and my camera). SO i go back up there and she is cowering in the corner, lifting up her front paws. And i didn't even think anything of it. So i'm taking my time getting the things ready and i was about to snap a picture of her when i realize!.....

OH NO! The water is SCALDING hot. Poor baby girl. It was probably the saddest thing I have ever seen in my entire life. The bottom of her little paws where they used to have light pink spots were BRIGHT red. Ugh, i still feel horrible just thinking about it. Sad Sad Sad!!!! Maybe that taught her a lesson? Hopefully.

Poor girl. Notice the ink splatters on the wall and the dingy grey water. Our carpet is Still a mess, but the ink thankfully came off her paws easily. Probably because i burned it off of her. So Sad. so so so sad. So, that was my weekend! :)

Hey Stephanie! I also am not looking forward to the day when I get a dog, but Dave wants one so bad. I just keep trying to put it off.:)

By the way, now that I know who you are, be VERY afraid if "the Reynolds' Rap" Wins! :-)

Well, you guys did want to get hardwood floors on the main level right?! :) I still can't believe she did that. Mom was buying pens that other day and Grandpa asked if they were for Ellie.
