Homeward Bound Puppy

     We have our spare 40lb Pro Plan container full of dog food as well out in the living room. Its mostly wet food and weighs a ton at this point. We had more but recently got around to mixing and filling the boy’s regular containers. We used 4 bags of Goodlife (2 puppy, 2 adult) and two bags of Organic food (1 puppy, 1 adult) and a couple bags of Iams (1 puppy, 1 weight loss adult) and a bag of senior Nutro to make a nice mixture. Kind of looks like cereal with all the different shapes and colors. Cost about $20 for 40lbs. Still left are:

2-8lb bags of Pro Plan (1 puppy, one senior weight management)

6-lg cans Science Diet (2 puppy, 3 senior)

4-huge cans Alpo Chop House

1-can Mighty Dog

1-pouch Nutro

17-tubs of Beneful (BOGO sets)

We saw the BOGO sets of Beneful at Walmart and immediately started snapping them up. Two tubs for 1.57 is pretty good and Cherokee adores them when he’s not feeling well. Of course now that we have so many Tim has started sneaking more wet food into dinners.  And they say moms spoil their kids, lol.

     Whoever said upholstery was boring has never seen the Vote Up Count Down” sale at Design Diva Fabrics. Part sale, part voting contest, all fun, all discount designer upholstery fabric.
The idea is simple: anyone with an account can vote for their favorite discount designer upholstery fabric. The fabric with the most votes goes into “countdown mode” where the price drops every second.  This continues until someone purchases it. The fabric with the next highest votes is then moved into the countdown mode. Even if you’re not completely into the fabric scene its fun to watch and participate in. There’s even a widget to help you keep tabs on the fun. So if you’re looking for discount designer upholstery fabric check out the site.

     We finally picked up the spare Jaffa Block shelf unit from my parents. We stuck it in the spare room and started piling on the food, treats, and the grooming tote. Everything fit except the plastic jars of Kibbles-n-Bits(all 6 of them) even after we took bags and boxes of food and treats to people we know with cats. We have on the shelves:

3-4lb bag of Beneful soy

I’m glad you asked. A bollard is a traffic device. You’ve seen and walked around them (hopefully they hurt if you run into them) many times. The are used to restrict traffic, keep vehicles off walkways and bike paths, or from ramming into loading bays on accident. They come in all assortment of types and shapes from collapsible bollards, to fixed bollards, to telescoping bollards, to retractable bollards. The tend to be bright orange or yellow although they come in other colors depending on the application such as black or white to blend in better.
The use of retractable bollards is really the most interesting to me. With only 3-4 inches for clearance when collapsed the retractable bollards allow for easy vehicle access for authorized vehicles (even low ones) and then can be erected to keep out non-authorized ones.
Traffic Guard Direct has every type of bollard, all in one place with the information you need to decide which type of bollard is right for you. Maybe you need retractable bollards. But what type? Single, double, round? With the easy navigation and information on each product you’ll have your retractable bollards up in no time.
