My Family Calls me ‘the Dog Whisperer’

//  Leave a Comment

Womans Best FriendI get right inside his head, and when I saw him eat that locust, I took it very personally!  It’s not the first time he’s traumatized me. The fact that he goes to the bathroom in FRONT of people, is trauma alone! All dogs, wild squirrels, anything that is potential ‘road kill’ loves me. It’s my ‘cross to bear’…even while being Jewish! My husband saw a wild squirrel climb up my leg once. It must be my aura, but maybe that’s why I’m so affected by their deaths. Even BUGS have families?
My children are doomed. I remember when my eldest was a toddler, she used to say, “inchworms are my friends!” 🙂

I Have a Problem with Things with Mulitple Legs

I HATE SPIDERS!My daughter, her friends and I were driving in my car, a spider hung down right behind my head, they all started to scream, which of course, made ME scream? I threw the car in park, right in the middle of the road and we all jumped out running around the car screaming like idiots until the guy behind us had to come and get the spider out of the car! Now. Is that pathetic???

I Just Witnessed a Murder.

OMG, I'm gonna' throw up.

I saw my dog eat a Live Locust. I HEARD the thing SCREAMING! I’m scarred for life. I will also have nightmares for SURE. UGH!   Here’s some of my good friend’s remarks to this after posting on FB.

“Saw and Heard my cat eat a mouse before!! crunch! crunch!…grosstastic!…My dog plays with crickets! He rolls them around in his mouth and releases them only somewhat the worse for wear!…And yet……sooooo delish…That locust probably had it coming….My cat ate a lizard the other night. I usually rescue reptiles before they are dismantled, but when I heard the “crunch” I knew it was too late…”

I am SO sorry I posted this. I’m doomed. I can’t even LOOK at my dog now. If my daughters’ had seen and heard that? We would have had to hospitalize them for SHOCK. They take after me. 
You guys don’t understand! I’m the type that catches bees and puts them outside! I don’t like to kill ANYTHING! I scream bloody murder when I see a spider though…anything with legs totally freaks me out. And things flying near my hair? I need serious valium at that point.

New Update in My Household

We think alike.
We think alike.

My 11 year old has decided she wants to model. Instead of encouraging her, because she’s got the confidence, I try and talk her OUT of it, because I know what it’s like to shlep in and out for the possibililty of getting nothing but rejection. What kind of a mother thinks like this? The Mom of FIVE…and she’s the last one! “ya gotta be kiddin’ me.” See? Even Sponge Bob agrees with me!

I do tell the kids, ‘you must try one new thing every day in order to grow!’  The middle one said she wanted to ‘try and not clean her room for the day.’ I give up.

What the Heck is Jayne FM?

This link is for all of you that have read along, laughed, thought me nuts, thought me witty, (deep thinking) of course, a little ‘off kilter’, but you MUST be thinking by now, if you’re a programm…er, “What in the World is Jayne FM?” Take a listen! I launch another new station on Monday and, get this… 2nd one in The Bible Belt! Stranger things have happened…  

  it just shows that I know how far to push the envelope or not. In no way does this make me a ‘holy roller’! LOL!  The only thing I preach, is that  my kids clean up their rooms!  If they do, I bless them with, “so why did it take me six times to ask you to do it??”
