Not only was yesterday my Birthday but my little dog Mandy (in the avatar) turned 5. Maybe since we share a B-Day, that's why we're so compatible. We do have a lot in common. She's terrified of other people and she's very kind and considerate. She can't stand for me to go anywhere without her. I got her a package of bones and a little bunny squeaky toy so she is very happy :).

Her morning wasn't so good though. Sunday, I noticed there was a nail stuck in my van's tire. My husband took the tire off and said I should drop the tire off at Midas (Mon) and pick it up later. I always take my dog with me when I take my daughter to school and pick her up. Well, after we dropped her off, I went to Midas. I told the guy the tire needed to be patched and that it was in the back of my van. He wanted my keys so I thought well, maybe he's just going to get it out himself.

I told him there's a dog in the van and he said they'd let me know before bringing the van in the garage so I could get her out. I was wondering if I'd have to stand outside holding my dog and trying to get my 3 yr old to listen to me. I was sitting there when I looked over and saw my van in the garage jacked way up! Oh, my poor Mandy! The guy had fixed the tire and put it back on the van. He said he drove the van into the garage and when he looked over, my little dog was in the seat staring at him. The other guy hadn't told him she was in there! He said she must've been cold cause she was shivering. It was hot and she was shivering cause she was afraid. She probably wondered who the strange man was and wanted to know where I was. I'm glad she didn't have a heart attack!
