20110913 - SKUNKED

20110913 - 2am,       I smell a skunk...
Where's the dog?  
Oh crap she is outside... 
Here girl!
She approaches funny... hunkered down... The smell is worse... 
Oh SH!T!!!  She's in the house and on the carpet before I know it... 
Drag her out to the garage, wipe her down. open the door and windows, through her bad out there. 
L up because of the stink... Wiped up the floors... Opened the windows... TRIED to sleep...

Up early, dog outside... Worked my arse off to try to find some time to take care of stinkalotasaurus...  Had a couple minutes so tied her to a tree and soaked her in peroxide, baking soda and soap, back in to work.  Rinsed her off, scrubbed the hardwood floors, back to work.  Soaked her in vinegar, baking soda and soap, back to work.  Rinsed her off and washed with shampoo, back to work.  Rinsed her off and washed her with apple cider vinegar, washed out the garage, back steps and patios, back to work.  Rinsed he off again, applied mouthwash, got lime for behind the shed were she OBVIOUSLY got sprayed, back to work.  Rinsed her off, fenced off behind the shed to keep her from getting in it again, carpet guy here to clean the carpets, cut all the hair odd her tail and face, back to work.  Washed her with tomato juice, cleaned up the yard.  Rinsed her off and one more shampooing.   Final clean up.  She smells just ok, the stink from behind the shed is suppressed, I am soaking wet in vinegar, peroxide, tomato, shampoo and dog hair and smell like something you would scrape off the bottom of a shoe!


Everything cleaned up, in, exhausted, ate, updated this blog while conserving enough energy to at last wash myself...

And just for icing on the cake.... 

The garage door cables came off and the garage dorr is stuck halfway up...
