Shoes? Dawgs? No, Bacteria....

Today, I don't think much will be happening on Shoe Dawg Shoe! Mark’s dad is flying in from St. Louis today and I am furiously swiffering (a new Webster’s dictionary word, right?) The kids were supposed to scour their bathroom since he will be using it and you guessed it – it has not been done – I think there is either a new phylum of plants or species of bacteria being grown in several spots there. The CDC or health department would have a hey day! I will be donning a mask and perhaps a protective suit when I get in there….If you don’t hear from me in the next day, I have been eaten.

We also have fur balls the size of Texas floating around and spotting the floor like tumble weeds in the desert. The cats are in prime shedding season. One of my Jazzercise students recommended that I throw them outside because birds use them to build their nests. I told her that I didn't want the large birds in my yard that would need to use all of the excess cat hair I have lying around (I am imagining a flock of buzzards or maybe emus...)

P.S. I think I hear the kids stirring upstairs (it's almost noon - gasp!)...oh wait....he's here (Mark's dad) and I am shower-less......I am currently donning Versace glasses (my one saving grace), Mark's "Proud to be American" t-shirt that was given to him as a sample to order shirts for his plant (I am very patriotic but can you say ABSOLUTELY CHEESY? The most loyal veteran would not wear this - EVER!) and Devon's hand-me-down soccer shorts from three seasons ago with a hole in the worst of all possible places.... NICE impression. My apologies to my fellow fashionistas! I will rectify this situation momentarily!
