Living the Dreams of Happy Ever After
Nestor and Colette Gomez living the dreams of happy ever afters.
Nestor and Colette come from two very different worlds. Nestor is from Argentina and Colette from upstate, NY, met in Las Vegas Nevada, in March of 2008 and married in May of 2009. Together we eat breath and live Atascadero Bipi Gi's Dog grooming. We share our lives in the small town of Atascadero, on the Central Coast of California with our 3 dogs, Angelina, Myles, Ozzie, cat Tito, and an African Grey Parrot Joey. I guess you could say we are joined at the hip. We eat, work, shop, and play together every day. Life in a small town was different for both of us at first but we have settled in the community and enjoy the simple life with our little band of beggar's.
Our pets and the business are our life, and I am so happy to have a man who loves the animals as much as I do. It sure makes life a lot easier with out all the fighting over how many I have. Nestor is sweet and kind to everything and everyone. He is not only the love of my life but my right arm at Bipi Gi's, as half owner he takes his role seriously. I can't believe it, a man who finally will get involved in my world, and he gets me. I must admit at times it just feels weird, because my first marriage , the husband would say, It's me or the dogs. Now you know my only response to that was, gee I'll miss you!
The animals have always come first, after all they can't take care of themselves. They can't open the can and serve themselves, OK most can't. They can't wash out their own dishes, because they don't have fingers to hold the dish rag, because tongue clean isn't going back in my cupboard. and putting their bowls away, come on, they can't reach the upper shelves in the cupboard, OK most can't...
The point is most common house pets can't do for themselves and they have to come first.
You know if you don't feed Joey first, before you sit down, your not going to have a quiet meal, for 17 years, I have been putting up with that stupid bell! I don't dare get rid of it, it would break his poor little heart. Nestor or I have to cut up little pieces of meat to cool before we sit down or we all pay the wrath of Joeys bell. Nestor has the chair closest to the cage, and when he sits down, there goes the bell! Nestor says, one moment Jooey, is hot fo jue. Sitting in wonder of how the bird understood that one... amazing. But Nestor smiles at me, after he has given Joey his meat and says, he as mi frien. Amazing I knew what that meant. lol.......Poor Nestor, god you just have to love him, broken English and all. Whats funnier is listening to Joey speak broken English, and Spanish, in Nestor's voice!
Nestor has his little band of beggar's who sit around our table and aren't as lucky as Joey, they have to wait until we are finished with dinner then 3 dishes are made of the left overs and everyone gets taste of what was on the menu. Like I said before, our dogs aren't spoiled we are just well trained.
Yes I have to say, I am the lucky one, I am living a dream life of Love, Laughter, and Harmony with Nestor and all my pets, and how sweet it is. That's the Buzz on Doggie Talk
