Duck egg is a dirty word!

Well on this blog I talk about the good, the bad and the plain ugly of life! I want (or I think I do) to remember as much as possible about our happenings!
Well there is a plain ugly story to tell....... The night before last SH and I were outside and busy so Willow (sweet dog that she is?) decided to take herself inside and relax on our bed....... Not so bad? Except that she had found a nest of duck eggs in the agapanthus and carried one inside in her mouth and proceeded to break it on our bed. Need I say the icing on the cake was that it was well and truly rotten! Coming inside it did not take a genius to work out an unusual odour was taking over the house. Oh my the next hour was spent washing , stripping and remaking beds, airing the room and the house , all the while trying not to be sick ourselves ! The Doona went to the dry cleaners yesterday where I very sheepishly apologised for the stench and tried to explain! We will not ever be hoping for a repeat!

Yuck, I don't think I could have cleaned it up. Bad dog.

Would it help if I said Milly (red heeler) found a dead chook to roll in then came inside....ewww. Luckily she didn't get on the bed but I had the dubious pleasure of locking her in the shower with me and scrubbing her twice with dog shampoo to get the smell off. Needless to say I needed a good scrub afterwards too. Hope the house is smelling much sweeter now.
