You are going to see Paula Deen. I have no idea where that came from.

I love the quilt you have hanging behind your two pink wing chairs! Don't those dogs look comfy? I have to laugh. My two always find the most cozy places in the room to settle in.
Good luck to Skipper today.

Awwwww, bless Skipper's little heart and other parts! You're doing the right thing, the responsible thing, and he'll recover in a short time. Guess what?! He'll thank you for rescuing him from THAT PLACE and bringing him home again, too! Just cover the furniture with thick old towels so he cannot mess up your upholstery.
I love the quilt behind the pink gingham chairs, too. You were psychic in knowing you'd need two such chairs so the kids would each have a place to nestle and keep you company!
My guess is that you're either going to a quilt shop, a thrift shop, or out to lunch with a friend or family member to help take your mind of Skipper's surgery. Oh, you might also be going to the pet shop to buy Skipper a please-forgive-me gift! Do 4 quesses count?
Please let us know how Skipper does.
Hugs!

My guess is you're going to Cracker Barrell for chicken-n-dumplings, turnip greens, stewed apples and hot cornbread! At least that's where I wish I was going today. Wishing Skipper luck today. I guess it all goes back to that "jewel" thing or something. Like ovaries don't matter??? Out of sight, out of mind? I don't understand it either.

when will I proof-read? Make that 4 Guesses!

Great picture. Ya think Skipper is telling Sophie "ha ha, I have a pillow and your don't" :)
The vet told us that every male dog should be neutered to prevent prostate cancer, so we got our little male chihuahua neutered and he was ready to play later on that day.
Good luck Skipper.

I think you're going to have some sort of delicious milkshake - don't know where, but that's my hunch - and if that wasn't on your agenda, maybe you should add it in anyway!!

Good luck, Skipper!
Looking at that photo, makes me think you need another pink gingham chair! :-)
Where you are going today? Of course you are going to your local quilt shop to treat yourself, and after that you are going to Starbucks bringing home your favourite coffee! Because that's what I would have liked to do!
Enjoy your day!

Wherever you go and whatever you do may it bring gladness into your heart. Also, Skipper will be such a good boy for the rest of his days. Our Sparky continues to pee like a girl after his "Jewels" were removed. That is such a blessing to not having a dog squirting every piece of lawn furniture, etc. to mark his territory.

Makes perefect sense to me to neuter of apay a dog or cat. Don't understand the male attitude at all!
I think you may be heading to the thrift store and to have a milkshake or maybe a nice lunch out , whatever it is ENJOY!

Good luck to Skipper today. We have never owned a male dog, so haven't had to experience this part of belonging to a pet.
I would guess that you are going to the thrift store an then for your favorite malkshake.

Now you need a third chair, for where on earth do YOU sit?!!!
I think you just might be going to the accupuncturist?
On 09/16/2010, Wendy said ...
I think you are going to have accupuncture. Good luck to you. Have loved watching the transformation of the yellow house. It is turning out to look wonderful.

This could be called Susan's Double Surprise Drawing (SDSD)-- A surprise to win and a surprise to be won. Or something like that.
Wherever you are going, I hope it is a pleasant event. No! More than that. Doubly delightful!
On 09/16/2010, Deb said ...
I read down thru the comments...and acupunture? Those guessers must know something the rest of us don't. My first thought (why I don't know) was to Paula Deen's. And another commenter said the same thing! Well, whatever you're doing, have fun. I, too, love the quilt behind the chairs.

I really enjoyed my visit to your blog... so sorry to hear that you lost your husband. My husband is ill - will start second round of treatment soon.. it is hard. I know.
I hope you are doing something wonderful with your dogs.. like a walk in the park!

Acupuncturist or thrift store. Poor skipper, he'll do fine.
On 09/16/2010, Lisa said ...
I think it's great that you are having Skipper taken care of. What a good pet mommy.
Hope you are off to somewhere fun like the hair or nail salon or thrifting.
On 09/16/2010, sophie said ...
I often have a similar scene at my house ... with my two cats, one in each of the wingback chairs.
Wherever you went, I hope you had a great day. My guess would be salon--no idea why, it just popped into my head.
On 09/16/2010, Nancy said ...
The puppies look very cute sitting in those pink chairs... Maybe you are going to a friends house to spend the day...have lunch..shop a bit..and relax...

Lovely picture and two dogs very much at home.
Are you going to the book shop to get a book on post operative care for dogs ?
Hope all goes well.
On 09/17/2010, Fitzy said ...
I think you're going to the thrift shop, maybe to look for doilies for the backs of the chairs. The doggies look comfy, they obviously don't know you're leaving!
Hugs darlin'.

When I picked Pumpkin, my cat, up from the vet after his tutoring, um, I mean neutering, he lept out of the technician's arms and into mine. Verna commented she had never seen a cat do that before. Pumpkin chose me to be his Mommy and he meant it! I'm probably too late to guess, but I'd have to say Hobby Lobby.
On 09/17/2010, Vreni said ...
Poor little dog! But it's for the best ;).
Anyway, I too love that quilt which hangs behind your pink chairs. I wouldn't mind to see it in a close up!
I guess you are going to a very special quilt shop??? But wherever you go, have fun.
On 09/18/2010, Pat McDonald said ...
You are doing the very best for Skipper and for you! It is also a very responsible action! All of our pets are neutered(except chickens and rooster of course). I'm probably too late.....but I believe you will go to lunch with a friend and then swing into a quilt shop to relax. That is my idea of a perfect afternoon. Blessings to you. Pat McDonald

Those pink chairs are great, and they go great with that quilt on the wall. Are you going for a quilting class today? That would be fun!
On 09/19/2010, Carol said ...
Skipper will be fine. Do you know that they also make "neuticles", prostheses that you put in when you take out the manhoods?
Gee....I'm sure a woman didn't come up with THAT idea....or maybe she did, to help her man come to terms with doggy's surgery!
