Life with an Amazon, especially for anyone who has the pleasure of being owned by one, is never dull or boring. From one moment to the next, I am never sure where I will find Salsa and what I will find her doing. Early this morning for example, while I was getting ready to take care of Jay, I heard a crash in the kitchen and an “Oh GOD!” from Joe…. (always a scary moment) LOL… I whipped around in time to see Salsa rise straight up (like a Phoenix out of the ashes) from my stack of clean dishes in the dishrack, turn sslloooowwwlly from side to side, and sink ssllooowwlly back down out of sight from between the dishes…. OMG! LMAO! After my first round of chores, I was getting ready for the nurse’s visit and I had placed a box of sterile gloves that we all use as part of the items that are needed for home visits out and turned around to reclean the floor after Joe dumped his box of dry spaghetti. I turned around in time to find Salsa picking one blue glove at a time out of the box and dropping it on the growing pile on the floor while watching each flutter down before grabbing another (like out of a Kleenex box)… Life is never dull (or clean) but worth it in laughs and entertainment…

Last night, I splurged and made fried shrimp for dinner. Since Jay has been home in hospice care, a lot of food choices are hit and miss since his taste and appetite has been also hit and miss….Well, to my unending surprise, Joe has added shrimp to his rising list of foods that he now, after 12 years, have decided to sample and add to his repertoire. By the way, this list now includes cooked broccoli, cooked cauliflower, spinach, peanut butter, and cream or wheat/Maltomeal. Now, when I make Shrimp, I must ensure that Joe has at least 4 for himself…. Sheesh! At this rate, he is going to have to get a Job to help with food costs. Talk about champagne tastes…lol Here are some photos….
