Gas Attack

June 12, 2011 by Julie 49 Comments

Home sweet home! We made it back in Orlando a little before 6 p.m.

Our day began with a five-hour drive from Jekyll Island to my family’s house where we drove to pick up Sadie. They were kind enough to watch her for the weekend and took good care of our little girl.

We hung out with my mom, dad and sister for a few hours and even enjoyed a short boat ride before hitting the road.

Sadie is such a boat dog and loved the time on the water.

Around 4 p.m. we hopped in my car to drive back to Orlando.

Sadie preceded to make us pay for leaving her behind over the weekend by gassing up a storm and hot boxing our car for the entire two-hour drive.

Judging by the feedback I received on the PBF Facebook page, Sadie isn’t the only animal who makes her owners pay for leaving them behind. I know animals can’t talk, but they sure can communicate.

Dinner

When we arrived home, Ryan and I wanted a quick dinner to eat while we got organized for the week ahead and unpacked our bags from our weekend vacation.

A frozen pizza sounded ideal, so we split a California Pizza Kitchen roasted veggie thin crust pizza.

The pizza was delicious! Ryan and I are big fans of CPK frozen pizzas but never tried this particular flavor until tonight. I think it’s new because I couldn’t find it on their website, but it’s a winner!

A sugar cookie was enjoyed on the side.

Off to finish throwing everything into the laundry unpacking!

Be sure to follow PBFingers on Instagram and Facebook!

I'd love to connect with you! I am always so grateful when you let me know you tried one of my recipes or workouts and tag me in your photos or updates. Thank you so much!!!

    haha my dog used to have “ways” to show me his feelings as well! Dogs are smarter than we give them credit for 🙂 I’ve never tried a CPK frozen pizza but that one looks good!

    haha..has she ever passed gas and then turned around to see where it was coming from?? Btw, I made some chocolate chip oatmeal cookies today that you would probably LOVE, they were a little crunchy around the edges and chewy in the center…delish 🙂

    Hahaha, aww Sadie! She’s adorable…but I totally know what you mean about the doggy gas. Oddly enough, it’s our smallest girl (a boston terrier) that can out-gas the others (a lab and lab mix!). Sounds like she got some nice goodies with the grandparents! 🙂

    Haha…I love the caption “And it felt so good” haha.

    One time I accidentally zipped my friend’s cat into my suitcase for three days while I was visiting her (and we went away for the weekend)…it was an accident, I’m not a horrible person!
    Anyway, when we got back and realized what had happened, we let him out and he immediately peed on her bed. Whoops.

    But he didn’t go AT ALL the entire time he was in the suitcase. Pretty impressive 😉

    That is hilarious about Sadie, but I’m sure it wasn’t funny at the time – ick! 🙂 My parents’ dogs also tend to have gas issues – and I can laugh about it because I don’t have to live with ’em. hehe. They’re worth it 🙂

    I’ve got about 200lbs worth of dogs (2 big ones!) and whenever we pull our suitcases out, one throws up, and one runs around like a maniac being bad because he knows we are leaving them. Not fun!

    after a week long vacation one time I was hanging out on the bed with Princess when she decided to pee all over me and the sheets. She made her feelings quite clear.

    Dogs can communicate? Hmmm, let’s see…..My husband and I lived with my parents for a few months after we got married. Katy (the family doxie) used to love sleeping in my bed after I went to school/work. She however did not like sharing the bed with my husband. When she tried to go in the room after I left and found him still sleeping she wasn’t too happy. She would leave large puddles of pee just outside our bedroom door. Then we moved out of my parents house and Katy decided for two weeks (literally two weeks) that she was not going to acknowledge me for leaving her (my hubby she still loved). When I came over, and I basically did every day since I worked so close by, she would run to the door excited for a visitor. However, when she realized it was me, she would turn her nose up, turn her back to me and walk away. Oh and the time my dad pissed her off she left a pile of poo just outside the bathroom door just after he went in. When he came out he stepped right in it. I think he learned his lesson cause she never did it again.

    However the issue that matters most is a range for temperature appraisal.
    � The extended family � still common in many parts
    of the world this type of family consists of parents, children and relatives living close together and often in the
    same house. Adversities are a part of living, and we choose the way we react
    to each adversity in our lives.
