Monday was supposed to be the day I got on a strict schedule and make myself start to work on my summer to-do list. But, guess what?! The AC went out in my truck and it is HOT!! So, that meant a trip to the dealership {3 hour drive away + waiting time} meant I was gone most of the day dealing with that craziness.

Thankfully, my truck is still under warranty which means it would pay for the repairs and also provide me a rental vehicle…

And BAM.. just like that I turned into a mini van driver! Not, that I wanted to be choosey by ANY means. At least they provided me something to ride in and the AC worked!! Who cares that I don’t have any kids to take advantage of  the mini van. It actually drove very nicely and was quite roomy inside if you need any reviews or are in the market to purchase a new family vehicle.

And read below for a crazy dog + mini van true story.

  

My parents are out of town for the week so I get to pet sit for them {2 dogs + 3 cats}. Meet Buck and Biscuit. They have made the blog several times over the last few years. Buck is a 15+ year Old Man and Biscuit is the rescue dog that was adopted last summer.

Biscuit has been traveling with me this week on errands and Thursday morning we made a trip to the post office to drop off stationery orders to be shipped. I left the mini van {see above}unlocked and running with the AC on and Biscuit inside. I ran inside and was gone maybe 30 seconds. I came back outside and Biscuit has stepped on the door lock and locked the doors. So, I am locked out of the rental van, at the post office, with my phone and the dog inside and basically in the smallest town in America.

So, I went back inside and called my husband. He called a local locksmith and they said it would be 30-45 minutes before the locksmith could get there. So, while I waited and waited I tried my hardest to trick Biscuit into stepping on the unlock button. I had NO luck!!! She would dance all around the button but would not step directly on it.

The locksmith arrived about 40 minutes later. He walked up to the window and Biscuit jumped up and stepped RIGHT ON THE DARN UNLOCK button!

So, I paid a locksmith for 2 seconds of his time.

And, this is also why keyless entry so be on every single vehicle. You just never know when the dog is going to lock you out.

Good news- when I finally got inside the mini van. The car dealership called and my truck was ready. I am not back in my own vehicle which has my trusty key pad on the door.

 

I have been working this week on finishing up some new stationery designs and I have them listed on the Doodle Bugs Paper website.

And in between everything else this week I have been working on a new product. Maybe soon it will be finished…
