So darn full of love!

Posted: Aug 6, 2010

I just have to tell you about my stepfather's pets! They are just like my own. Our gorgeous little Terrier/Chihuahua mix is the love of my life; not to mention her "sister" our Double Yellow Amazon parrot.

Yesterday I went to visit, came through the garage and into the kitchen. My baby usually breaks her little white legs to get to me; squealing, spinning, nails clicking, crying! Yesterday . . . nothing!

We have a "secret clap" that I give when I get into the house. I kept clapping and calling her . . nothing!

Then I heard crying and squealing. I went over to the doors to the patio and there she was on the porch. Her Daddy was laughing! When I opened the doors she bolted into the kitchen and darn near knocked me over! We have a routine where we run down the hallway into the TV room, and that's where the real love fest begins! Such clapping, kissing, hugging! She likes to get a head start to run faster, so she jumps off my lap and makes a lap around the kitchen, builds up speed and then down the hall into the TV room. She is actually airborne! I put my arms up; you know, in self defense!

Our Parrot is just a total riot. She tells me "Well, I know about it!" She tells the dog to "Go outside! Go pee!" When her daddy bends over to pick something up she rushes to the side of the cage to try to bit him in the rear end. My God, it's insane! It's better than cable. Trust me. If you are depressed and feel nobody loves you they are the best medicine in the world! I'm due for another shot!

That sounds like a crazy house in a GREAT way! I was visualizing you describing the little Terrier/Chihuahua getting a head start to run faster. Same way in my house. They run down the hall full-speed and then leap frog onto 1 couch and then boing to the other couch. Crazy little dogs!

Yea, I agree. They are the best medicine ever. Two of mine have to sleep ON my desk at the window while I work, and now they are getting used to chickens. They don't bark at them in the window anymore unless they get within say 5 feet of the house. They just sit there and watch them do their thing. However, they are still chasing them if we have them outside.

Thanks for sharing your wonderful story!

I adopted her as a puppy 3 years ago from shelter. Her tailwag, wiggles, and kisses keep me happy. I have 2 bigger dogs; my little terrier mix runs the show.

Thanks all you pet lovin' people! - Christine

Well, now that you know I'm completely nuts about them I will share another little game we play. I call it "Race Car Driver." When she is on my lap staring at me I make that race car sound and move my head to the left and right really fast! She gets WILD and you can see her getting excited. Then she goes for the KILL! She tries her best to get my nose and ALWAYS WINS! She has me laughing to the point of tears. About this time the parrot is out on the porch yelling at the top of her lungs with that jungle call of hers because now she's jealous! I'm telling you it keeps me going! My stepfather looks at us and has to laugh and shake his head when we are playing Race Car Driver because she gets totally out of control!! OMGosh! This is such fun telling you all about it! All of your pets sound just adorable! I just thank God every day of my life that he has given me this wonderful connection with them. Keep On Lovin' Them!!

I hadn't had a religious solicitor at my door in almost a year, and it's starting up again. If you are one of those, PLEASE don't show up unannounced.

Has He!! frozen over? (Fox and Friends) The show's mistake was to compare the official unemployment figure in 2009 with the so-called "real" unemployment figure in 2012. That figure takes into account data which is not included in the official number, such as people who have stopped looking for work. Thus, it is always higher than the official figure. (Official unemployment is actually .3 percentage points higher than in 2009, while "real" unemployment is .7 percentage points l ...

even among Republicans, according to a survey from Pew Research. But the group is still potent within the Republican Party — which means that Sen. Ted Cruz gets a bit of good news on an otherwise bleak day. "Tea Party" is a necessarily vague affiliation. There are members of Tea Party groups, of course, but Pew largely had to allow poll respondents to self identify. And a lot of Republicans did so. About four-in-ten (41%) Republicans and Republican leaners agree with the Tea Pa ...

Tea Party smarter than average. Dan Kahan, the Elizabeth K.

The problem facing Obama, according to the article, is the 22nd Amendment, which prevents presidents from running for more than two terms. It was ratified in 1951. However, the article s ...

Peter Nelson, my colleague at Center of the American Experiment, is one of the country’s leading experts on health care policy. On the Center’s web site, he urges conservatives to take a deep breath and understand the constraints that Congressional Republicans are working under. In particular, a full repeal of Obamacare must get through the Senate, which means it must get 60 votes. There are only 52 Republican senators. Therefore, the first bill that has been unveiled is intended to be pa ...

There's nothing like an election to bring out violent hatemongers, the narrow-minded bigots and the just plain intolerant extremists. And no, we are not talking about Trump supporters here, but the legions of left-wingers who are showing off their true colors. According to the current vote tally, Donald Trump secured 60 million votes. Exit polls show that 42% of women cast ballots for the Republican. Nearly half (49%) of independent voters backed Trump. So did 14% of LGBT voters. Trump d ...
