No pain... No expensive surgery...
http://pd.gophercentral.com/u/1072/c/186/a/25

March 10, 2010

Greetings...

No, you didn't lose a column from Monday. It didn't go out. No,
there weren't any technical difficulties either. Quite frankly,
I didn't write one because I came down with "something" on
Sunday that knocked me for a loop and I spent the next 48 hours
flat on my back and unable to function...

I'm not sure what it was. at first, I thought it was the flu,
but I'm now thinking it was a case of good 'ole food poisoning,
and surprise, it wasn't anything I cooked!

I'm better now, but the thought of any real food still makes me
feel queasy and afraid of GETTING queasy...

Flypup wasn't able to make it to Phoenix over the weekend and
Flyboy is still nursing his pulled back muscles. He's supposed
to go back to work on Thursday and based on the way he's moving,
(or not moving), I don't know how he is going to go...

Our weather has been absolutely horrible for Arizona. It was actually
warmer in Chicago than here today and we have had rain almost every
day for the past two weeks. Normally, I wouldn't mind the rain because =

we have supposedly been in a drought even though this past Winter we
have had enough rain to have animals pair off in two's and "Ark
Building For Dummies" has sold out of Barnes and Noble...

The reason I'm not too happy right now is because a pool pipe cracked
which added to the nice, wet, and of course, muddy ground. Upon getting=

the pipe fixed, it was discovered that the pool company that put in the=

pool when we moved in buried the pipes 1 1/2 feet deep, instead of the =

six feet that is code. How did it pass inspection? Who got their palms =

greased to sign off on it? What recourse does a homeowner have eight
years after moving in when something like this happens?

So...Trenching began all over the yard to find the leaky pipe because
the one thing a pipe doesn't do when it has a leak is send out a
message where the leak is...

It was an all day job, but the leak was found and fixed, (for now). I
say "for now" because after seeing the crappy job that was done on =

the burying of the original pipes, we all agreed that it's only a
matter of time before leaks start popping up everywhere. The code is
six feet for a reason. Our extreme heat will melt and crack PVC pipes
that are close to the surface of the ground...

Moosie and Ginger had to be kept in all day because nothing spells "fun=
"
for a Great Dane like a mountain of dirt and a trench, (usually dug by =

them)...

The trenches were covered, the stones put back in place and all was right=

in the world...

UNTIL...

The rains came again and at such a force that we had the most rainfall =

out of anyone in the Valley. Because the ground was freshly dug, it creat=
ed
a wonderful sinkhole in places!

You can't pay for this kind of fun! Good thing because more "fun" w=
as
yet to come...

After spending the whole day inside and showing extremely impressive
bladder control, it was inevitable that Moosie and Ginger would not
only have to go out, but investigate the area that was worked on all
day...

Not a problem, except...

The keyword above was...sinkhole...

The two of them decided they had penned up energy they needed to get rid=

of and stampeded all over the yard and as they ran over the freshy dug =

ground, they stopped...

Not because something caught their attention, but because all of their =

legs SUNK into the ground all the way up to their elbows!!!

We had to actually go out there to free them and of course, it started =

raining Cats and Danes! Grab the towels, grab the rags, grab the Dogs,=

and do NOT let them take off once they get into the house!

Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh, an almost impossible task and only semi-successful
if you saw my floor after the two mining engineers came inside...

Maybe it wasn't the flu or food poisoning afterall, maybe it was mud
poisoning...
