Last night we packed the best we could, leaving the last minute items to be packed...the last minute. I took a sleeping pill at 10 hoping to get a good night sleep before our 7 plus hour drive to the oregon dunes. Alarm goes off at 6am...but I had been awake since 5:30. My husband hit the snooze twice. I have no idea why...it's not like Vegas was going to let him sleep any longer. Our departure time was set for 7am. My husband jumped in the shower while I went to get O up. She is the sweetest thing when she first wakes up. I sat on the floor and uncovered her kennel. She was using her backup stinky as a pillow. (main stinky was already packed).I talked to her for a few moments thru her kennel..with no response. Finally, I asked if she was ready to go bye bye. Butt wiggling, she got out off her kennel and climbed into my lap.

Finally everybody in their places, we pull out at 8am. We have O in her baby kennel and vegas on his couch. We tried 2 couch travel and regretted it. Too much freedom and feisty bulldogs makes for a very long ride. O settled right down, but vegas? What a pickle!! We stopped right before the Oregon border for a pee break. Pee for the pups. Starbucks and hamburgers for the people.

Mcdonalds! OMG! What crap food. We stopped to fill the tanks at a Safeway. They have one diesel pump...and of course there was someone blocking the pump..casually cleaning their windows. Our a$$ is hanging in the middle of the road (we are pulling a 21 foot toy hauler with our big truck) waiting...waiting....waiting. WAITING!!! Finally the kid gets into his car and leaves. First leg of our trip $43.00 for half a tank. 77carbs for a strawberry/banana smoothie. 45 carbs for a big mac and 30 carbs for french fries. I shared a few with the pups. Not agood idea. We left a good 45 mins ago and vegas still is crying about a fry he dropped. If you need a reminder on how this sounds..there is a video poll somewhere on here.

Funny! Vegas just coughed up a phlegmmy that he sent flying to the front seat that landed on Marks back.

Who would have thought of O being the travel angel vs Vegas?

I should probably NOT add this...but what do you take as a sign. A very dear friend of minejust passed away last sat. He was always concerned about us quadding. Do you take any of these as signs?

Orion being attacked? (this happened before his passing)
Insulin pump stopped working. Battery died without any warning. Usually I get low battery warnings for a few days...no warning. Dead battery and a dead pump.

Cut from wrist to finger?
Deep embedded sliver?

:hmm: my first reaction was naw...but after thinking about it..AND you making a connection....I'd just proceed with caution...maybe he just wants to nag at you a bit...and he wanted you to bring extra batteries for your pump! like I said already..BE SAFE!!

Vegas has finally settled down. Now I have to pee. So we will be hitting the next rest stop. All four of us will be taking a potty break. Husband says "5 hours down, 2 to go."

Red is being so good. Red is O current nick name. She went in for a bandage change with pink on her leg and came out with a red "cast". They said her pad that was torn away has separated...but a nice scab has formed.
