ON THE BACK BURNER

I don't know what happened. I have only been walking in my usual places with Noodle. I did go out to a dinner club with a group of friends, but as far as I know, no one has complained of bites. I have a number of itchy red bites on my ankle. They don't look like spider bites, or even red ant bites. Just another mystery of my life. I remember , a long time ago, picking up a stray dog and after a few days, deciding that we really couldn't keep him. He left us with a house full of fleas. We had to leave the house and have an exterminator come in. This was before we had kids, thank goodness. Now, I have a gecko running around the house. I can't catch that little guy, so I just as soon make a pet of him.I've run after him with a plastic container and a lid trying my best not to give him a heart attack. He's good. He doesn't want to be an outdoor pet.If Noodle had vision, he could chase him and wear him out and then I could put him out. Noodle can't see and the gecko isn't leaving. I hope they aren't sharing dog food.
