Being an old bitch, Mary has bald patches on her back and flanks.
Subsequently Trendy Carol being Trendy Carol has bought her a succession of knitted coats this autumn.
Her latest is an armless cardigan of many colours
And Mary is warm but overdressed in a village full of sheepdogs and hearth mutts.
Last night on our last walk Mary wouldn’t amble along.
She staggered
And stopped still, with her head down and tail droopy
I cajoled her and petted her but she stood in the rain
Stock still and miserable
So I lifted her up and with her head under my chin, me and Roger worriedly ran for home.
I suspected a stroke
Or epilepsy
Or sudden illness
And in the light of the fire
I tearfully gave the unhappy girl the once over.
After a couple of minutes I finally sussed it.
Somehow she the old gal had got her back leg jammed in her front leg cardigan arm hole.
Ffs these animals will be the death of me …….
Eu nunca vou me esquecer do você fez comigo. Eu nunca vou me esquecer do que aconteceu em bioquímica 2. Que você me fez acreditar que eu poderia passar na faculdade sem estudar e quando chegou em bioquímica 2, você decidiu não me dar cola e não me avisar nada. Por sua culpa, eu quase fiquei reprovado em bioquímica 2. Eu me lembro daquele trabalho em vídeo de bioquímica 2. Que o professor do bloco de lipídios de bioquímica 2 mandou a gente gravar um vídeo explicando a matéria, o vídeo era para ter 10 minutos de duração, o vídeo tinha uma margem de erro, por causa da margem de erro o vídeo podia ficar entre 7 minutos e 13 minutos. Eu gravei o vídeo seguindo as regras do professor e tirei 1 no vídeo, você não seguiu as regras, gravou um vídeo de 16 minutos e tirou 10 no trabalho do vídeo, quer dizer eu sigo as regras e não ganho nada, você não segue as regras e ganha um 10?
ReplyDeleteO professor nem deveria ter aceitado o seu vídeo, já que ele não seguiu as regras.
Você ainda falou que o professor tinha falado que o vídeo podia passar de 13 minutos, caso o vídeo estivesse completo, me diz uma coisa para que alguém entregaria um vídeo incompleto para o professor?
Você é a prova viva que vale a pena não seguir as regras.
Eu não estudei para produzir o vídeo, porque eu achei que você iria me dar cola. Agora você vai se formar como farmacêutico, graças à cola, graças ao Photomath.
Eu me lembro de como eu me senti, quando eu descobri que você estava fazendo IC com a Gadini, você apenas me usou para passar nas disciplinas do primeiro período. No segundo período em diante você não precisava mais de mim, então você mostrou quem é de verdade, você não passa de um egoísta que só pensa em si mesmo.
Eu sei que o nome do seu orientador é André Luis e que você está fazendo IC no laboratório de farmacobotânica, o que aconteceu para a Gadini não te querer mais e você resolver trocar de laboratório?
Será que o seu orientador acadêmico, sabe que você passou colando em cálculo para farmácia usando o Photomath?
Eu sei que você já até defendeu o seu TCC, será que você escreveu o seu TCC usando o Photomath?
Quer saber de uma coisa pode registrar outro boletim de ocorrência contra mim. Eu não tenho medo da polícia. A minha casa fica do lado de uma boca de fumo, a polícia só aparece aqui na minha rua para buscar o arrego.
Fez o que fez comigo e agora fica se fingindo de vítima. Era só o que me faltava.
That’s easy for you to say
DeleteBlogland: There rolls, and then there's whackos.
DeleteHahaha Traveller....laughing my socks off here!!
DeleteOh Mary! This story reminded me of a beloved show on Canadian radio called the Vinyl Cafe which included stories about a family and their dog Arthur. The bit that is pertinent starts at about 11:30 in but the whole thing is a charming story. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIEnRZ5KwXc. The sweater is lovely by the way.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad Mary is ok. I had something similar with my dog Beano, half way across the road he seemed to be struggling. He's about 15 years old so I assumed the worst. When we reached the other side of the road I realised he'd got some plastic covered garden wire caught round his legs.
ReplyDeleteI’m not the only fool then
DeletePoor Mary, so many things to check for. So glad she is well though. Take care. Josie ( )
ReplyDeleteAnimals! My old cat Annabelle scared me seriously when one morning she kept limping and staggering. After disasterizing for a bit, I found she'd got two front claws crossed! One snip and she was cured! I needed a little lie down.
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely that she's wrapped up warmly for a North Wales winter. Although the ability to talk to us would be useful sometimes!
ReplyDeleteOh Mary! We all do that from time to time!

ReplyDeleteI am glad Mary is okay. Hugs. Marjorie in Canada
ReplyDeleteDear Mary, she is similar in age to my Mo. Who now has vestibular disease seizures, poor mite. Anyway I hope you continue to dress Mary warmly, she and Mo have years ahead of them, I hope. Mo is a densely double coated pug, prob doesn't need a sweater, but being a pug, he is pleased to dress up. Hugs to you and Mary---and dear helpful Trendy Carol.
ReplyDeleteI must once again say that you have the best neighbors!! What a treasure Trendy Carol and her Hubby are! As for Mary, I was holding my breath and was so relieved to learn the issue. I could visualize you with tears flowing examining her. Yes, our animals may well be the death of us. I just got up and gave Annie a big hug and she looked at me with a look that read "What? BTW since you are up get me a treat".
ReplyDeleteOh, I was so worried there for a moment! I'm glad it was nothing more than a sartorial mix up. We've all had those. Mary does look stylish and warm in her new coat, even if her dad now needs a large gin and a lie down in a darkened room! xx
ReplyDeleteOh, goodness! Love the doggie sweaters from dear Trendy Carol, but you nearly caused my heart to stop in concern about Mary and her worrisome demeanor when y'all were out for your walk. May she be 100% okay when her legs are in their proper sweater openings! Big hugs to you, John, and applause for your diagnostic skills!
ReplyDeleteHugs!
I was starting to tear up with worry about dear Mary. Phew!

What does Ffs mean? I assume that it is a Welsh word - probably meaning the chapel by the waterfall - or something like that.
ReplyDeleteLove the colourful coat sans Trendy Carol; my heart was in my mouth reading this I am so glad it was just a case of leg in wrong hole! I agree our animals will be the death of us my young Aggie (calico) has a bad eye at the moment, I suspect a claw from her brother when playing but I am bathing it and will take her to the vet if needs be.
ReplyDeleteThank goodness, it was only a wardrobe malfunction and not something more serious.
ReplyDeleteSweet Mary.
haha! when they are old we half expect anything to go wrong at any moment.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad she's ok and hopefully you had a restorative gin
It's not funny, I know you were worried, but it is funny.
ReplyDeleteThose were terrifying moments for you, hurrying for home. With a happy conclusion, thank goodness. I had stress with my 14 year old pup this week, he had general anesthesia to have 4 teeth pulled. At his age anesthesia can be dangerous but all is well, my best friend is home and happy.
