The Laundry Pit

We're finding evidence in every room in the house. We're finding signs in tucked-away places. Different colors each time....and some of them are in bad shape.

With the baby coming.....we have to do something.

We knew....with the baby coming next month....that the boys were going to take this hard....and that we would expect some rebellion and bad-behavior. I figured we might lose the younger one to him hiding himself away and refusing to come out...or to engage with the family when the baby comes.

I know...with the eldest boy...he's going to be outspoken at times....and withdrawn at others.

I expected some of this...but, wow. There's more than I thought.

And...tonight......sitting there at dinner surveying the evidence...the sheer volume of paraphernalia we found...everywhere....we knew for the baby's safety...his health, we've got to do something now.

It's time for us to have an intervention....for Bushido.

Rangoon is following his big brother and quickly accumulating the same addiction and habits......and it's got to stop. Now.

We have to address the number and volume of pipe cleaners around the house.

With the puppy coming in less than a month....Bushi's 'currency'...and how he gets his 'hits'......it's too risky.

Bent wire in a puppy gastro-intestinal tract.....is not good.

This is going to be bumpy...... keep us in your thoughts as we try to break this cycle.
