I Left My Corn In Abilene

The "operation" is over and I am fine.  BOL!  It was a little scary because they laid me on a table and lots of people gathered around to watch the corn removal.  Mama was more scared than I was though.  Aunt Donna from Greyhound Companions was there petting me to relax me and Dad was there too.  Mama was standing in front trying to see the procedure.

My eyes are big because they started the Dremel on me.

Dad and Aunt Donna relaxing me.

The guy who lifted me on the table checking on me.

At this point, I am thinking I am not so sure about all of this.

This is really strange.

I have my tails between my legs.  She is showing everyone my corn.

I am just kind of chilling now.

I stayed on the table while people asked questions.

The corn is now out. She said a new one could be there in just a few weeks.  It wasn't bad getting it out.  It was just strange feeling.

I walked around the event after the procedure.  Let me tell you, I loved being at the event.  It was so much fun just walking around seeing everything.  Scout and I came back in the evening for the contests and something very exciting happened.  You will have to wait until tomorrow to find out though.  BOL!

Ready For The Fourth

The RV park is decorated for the fourth of July.  The flags are out on all the posts like they were for Memorial Day.  They have not put the banners out around the Club House or fences yet though.  We hope they do because it makes it look quite festive. It's my first 4th of July being adopted!

The lady that helped Mama with the awning when we first moved here left yesterday.  Mama was sad when she saw they had left. We didn't get to say good-bye. We have our blinds closed in the mornings if the sun is out because it gets too hot in here.  We don't hear anything that is going on outside, so they left without us knowing.  We went over and checked out their site. They have a lot of shade, but their site costs more and Dad doesn't want to move. We should be leaving here in a few weeks anyway.  We don't know where we are going yet. 

There is a subdivision that backs to our RV park. There is a guy who plays music very loud 24/7 and every light on his house seem to be on.  Mama noticed it the first day we were here.  She thought maybe he was dead and no one knew it. She asked the park manager about it and she said that the police have been called several times and there is nothing that they can do about it.  We don't know when he sleeps.  We don't hear it from our motor home, but if we walk down the road into the other RV section, we hear it. He plays pretty good music, but it has to be so annoying to all his neighbors.   Last Thursday and Friday, he had parties. It was really loud. People were laughing, singing, etc.  Saturday, he added a band to his party. I think that upset the neighbors because there was silence for a few hours. I just cannot imagine having to live next to him.  I bet he has a huge party tomorrow night.

The view from our window. It's a Crape Myrtle.  

Me watching the firemen that are down the street from us. 

Mama fixed pitas with pepperoni last night.  It was basically a pita with pizza sauce, pepperoni and mozzarella cheese. It is baked for about 10 minutes at 400 degrees. She said it was pretty good. Tonight, she is fixing pitas with chicken fajita strips.

Dad is off tomorrow!  I am going to the vet for my distemper vaccine.  Mama thought it was due at the end of the month, but I am set to expire on the 7th.  We will show the vet my corn, but Mama said unless they are greyhound savvy, they probably won't know much.  Dad wants her to take the  printouts on how to remove corns, but she will not ask them to do it if they don't seem to have any knowledge on it.
