Go away I pee on the floor Send Aunty Angela I pee no more!!
My LA Home Owner and friend's desperate message sent at 11.30 last night! If she had to worry about leaving Stella and her lovely home as well, who knows what would happened ..... men in white coats!!
"I'm so irritated with my Stella. She peed again upstairs. I didn't have time to walk her this morning because I had an early dental apt. & have caught a lousy cold so everything is harder & takes longer. She has a doggie door & I've taken her in the backyard & praised her for doing it all back there, & when I left I told her the usual commands but obviously they mean nothing because this morning she chose to come upstairs & pee at the entrance of the office room. I didn't notice it (because I didn't expect it) until tonight. Then I saw a dried pee stain next to the damp one. I'm so frustrated! I've run out of carpet stain/dog smell remover. I cannot possibly get everything done that I need to do tomorrow anyways, & now this! This has never happened when she gets a good walk in the morning but she has done this before when I didn't walk her.
Meanwhile my mother is having a mini meldown. She tried on her dress for the wedding & believes she is 2 sizes too big for it now. She has gained a lot of weight since she last wore it so I had her try it on two weeks ago. It fits her differently & she needs a good girdle, but it will work. It's a gorgeous flowy kind of thing- two layers. Somehow in these two weeks, her perception has changed & she wants to frantically find something else...tomorrow. I have a cold. I haven't packed. Packing takes me forever. One of our employees got hurt today & I have to deal with worker's compensation insurance paperwork within 24 hrs (it's the law)- which is tomorrow. I have no face or eye cream for the trip. I didn't get a facial yet - & I won't. My shoulder hurts! I need to do my stretches which if done properly takes 30 minutes. I need sleep! I have furniture arriving tomorrow. I need to cancel/postpone it. My mother's new glasses prescription was rushed to be ready for the trip & needs picking up tomorrow, as do my pants. The dress I am wearing for the wedding needs alteration. My favorite tailor surprisingly had his shop closed since Sat thru today for President's Day holiday (our business was open). He might not have time to do it in one day - I'd have to go first thing & pick it up last thing tomorrow. But I refuse to have a meltdown.
I am having Antonia clean on Wed. She will walk Stella. I hope she remembers to keep a light on for you."
She will and all will be well ..... go and have a great time!!
