Cough cough Hack Hack...sigh

How was your weekend? Was it full of fun adventures, sunshine and awesomeness? Want to know how my weekend went?

Here's a soundbyte:

"HACK HACK! COUGH COUGH!"

Snot noises

"COUGH COUGH!"

MOOOANNN!

"OMG we're DYING!"

Yep. That's what I heard. I had double-dose nurse duty as BOTH parents were sick! We're not sure if it's allergies or a sinus infection or both (mom calls it the "plague of neverending snot death") but all our fun, outdoor plans got thrown out with all the used tissues.

I guess as soon as Simon and I get better, mom and dad have to go get all sickly. But they PROMISED me this weekend we'll have fun. It's Bark in the Park Saturday, a fundraiser/doggie event for our local humane society. And we're going. If I have to drag them out by their Breathe Right strips, we're going!

  4. I hope everyone is better. When my human is feeling bad and laying in bed I come over and give her a little doggie aroma-therapy - I breathe right up close in her face. She usually pops right up and gets moving. Sometimes she screams "yecch".

  8. Yes, our weekend was full of sunshine and awesomeness:) Sorry to hear that your Mum and Dad are crook and you're having to nurse them, Anna. I'm sure they'll make it up to you next weekend. The Bark in the Park event sounds great. We've never been to anything like that.

  12. Oh, not the dread snot noses! Ugh! Anna, I am so sorry you had to deal with that instead of going out adventuring! I wish our Bark in the Park were this Spring. It seems like everybody else is having theirs now. I agree, drag them by their ankles if you have to!

  14. We won't mention the beautiful walks we took yesterday or the nice pictures of flowers that mom took, or how our stream water is running clear.... Um, Bart went to the vet today. He had a sore neck...

  19. Oh my god, Anna - by their Breathe Right strips? BAH!!
    I'm so sorry your parents are sick - nothing fun happens when we're sinus-y here. I've found that a neti pot and some advil work like a charm. Yeah, "nutty pot" as Matt calls it, but he's never had a sinus migraine! I hope everything goes well for the Bark in the Park. We have a PoochFest for the local animal shelter here, too!
