Doglepers and Monday Morning

I am afraid for Goldie and Bandit, to tell the truth. Whatever it is that is on their faces has spread to Goldie’s legs and some of her torso.

We went to Hubbard this morning, as planned. On the way back, we stopped in an herb shop and bought some raspberry tea. I hope it really does help the ways Mikey says it does. I haven’t much to say right now, except that we are about to go to Martha’s office again. I so don’t look forward to that, because she’s been excessively critical of my smoking habit of late. I don’t appreciate that we are going down there as a favor to her and she wants to belittle me and guilt-trip me about smoking. She has known for YEARS that I am a heavy smoker. I can and do sympathize with the fact that she’s apparently allergic to smoke, but I don’t smoke in front of her. Her belittling is mostly in the form of telling me how bad I smell from the smoke on my clothes and/or breath.

If she does it today, I’m going to ask Mikey to follow me outside, and we’ll leave. I don’t wish to leave Memaw stranded there with Martha, because there will be the problem of where Memaw will be while Martha goes to get her granddaughters….or perhaps WE will go get the girls again. One never knows, does one?

Anyway…..

We got an offer from the landlord today (Monty) that we can lower our rent to $300 per month if I agree to keep up our humongous lawn. I can do that. I won’t LIKE IT, but I will DO IT!!!! 🙂

I’d better start dressing before Mikey gets too edgy about just sitting here.

Love to all, especially My Hank,
