What makes this funny is that I just finished sending it.

I often heard that story when I was in high school having to do with homework assignments, but never did I believe it or think it was possible.I brought all my invoices home this weekend, and had set one to the side to go to UMC. My brand new puppy Dexter, shredded 372161. Not wanting to try to explain this to you, I attempted to piece it together. Well the little bugger did swallow part of it because a huge chunk could not be located anywhere.So I thought I'd make you smile and tell you this story, and beg for the invoice that goes to UMC dated 5/15 #372161 because I don't want to try to explain this one more time to someone else.

Attaching pictures as a peace offering. He really is cute, but he proves why 49 year old women should not have babies. . . . and this 49 year old is thinking it applies to baby dogs too.:)

Our family

Dexter. . . . as you can so easily tell. . . . is the most spoiled dog. . . . . . Sparks. . . . doesn't give Dexter the time of day. . . She refuses to look at him. . . . Sparks wants' to be included so she lays near the Principessa. . .but in no uncertain terms doesn't recgognize the dog.

Summer means

Lots of bare skin. . . . and painted toes. . . . this is my treat to myself. . . . those little Vietnamese ladies are so talented.
Happy Weekend!

Hot Hot Hot

We are on a roll. . . . I think it has been a record for days in a row that we have reached 100. I have been coming home after 8 hours because of the new puppy. . . . then I work a few extra hours here in the evening at home. I have lots of work that I can do at home. I am trying not to burn myself out. . . . having Mr. Dexter at home waiting is helping me to keep balance. Dexter is 11 weeks old. . . . he is chewing cabinet corners. . . . chairs. . . . and his favorite is flip flops. He has killed 3 pairs of the Principessas and one of mine. We are going to take puppy classes. He fetches, but he doesn't stop when we tell him to nor does he come when we call him.
Potty training is slow, but he has made a lot of progress. He held it until 4:30 a.m. last night. It meant that I just got up with him. . . . he pottied. . . . ate. . . . and then I walked him in the dark around the neighborhood. . . . Honestly it is the only time we can walk because it is not below a 100 before I go to bed.
The Principessa is going to start work in a week. . . . she starts UT in late August. . . . we are enjoying each other. . . . since the Sweet man is gone for the summer in Seattle. . . . she and I are giving the dog a lot of attention. . . . the Sweet man thinks that the dog isn't going to be able to handle the competition when he gets home. . . . I said Dex would be on his lap. . . . no competition in his little dog mind. . . . just another hand to pet him and play with him.
Well on to doing a little work from home.

Taking Canada off the must see list

Hubby was headed to Canada yesterday for a day of snowboarding. . . . he didn't make it over the border because after 32 years. . . . Canada decided he couldn't come into the country since he had been deported at age of 26 for working illegally in Canada. . . . you would think that after 32 years and several visits in between that time . . .that Canada would want someone to spend some of that hard earned money in that area, but no. . . . he said it was humiliating . . . he sent his buddies on, and took a bus back to Seattle. . . .
Now you know every time he says lets plan a vacation. . . . I' m saying, "Let's go to Canada"

Celebrations on the 4th

We have finished a huge day. . . . parade. . . . food. . . fun. . . . friends. . . . and did I say food. . . . oh yes. . . . it seems to me the most memorable times are based around food. . . . We are exhausted. . . . I would like to shoot fireworks. . . probably won't be able to stay awake that long.
Now that I have the fancy dancy phone I take pictures on it, but have not figured out how to download them to the computer. . . . I sure haven't figured out how to download them to blogger from my phone either.
So no pictures. . . . sorry.
Hope you have had a great day. . . . We are going to spend what is left in the day relaxing and resting. . .
Ciao

Monday Monday

Isn't he so cute! I told my #2daughter as she laid on the couch with Dexter snoring in her arms . . . . . "Did you ever think that we could find a dog as great as Sabrinia?" Sabrina was the poodle we had when the kids were growing up. . . . we didn't get her as a puppy, but as a gift from a lady who thought #2daughter needed a dog since she was allergic to our cat. . . . . boy oh boy did the little black poodle win our hearts. . . . and now we got Dex. . . . .he is smaller than our cat. . . . Dex thinks she should play with him, but Sparks thinks NOT! Sweetie has only seen movies I've sent from phone to phone. . . . . He is going to love this little dog when he gets home from Seattle. . . . Ohhhhhhhh what a wonderful pet that we found at the shelter. . . . Thanks whoever you are that you brought Dex to the shelter. . . . he is a wonderful addition to our family.

Dexter Wins our hearts

I think I have figured out what kind of terrier Dex is. . . . . I saw a fox terrier on the animal planet. . . he is exactly like one of those. . . . . they say they are great pets. . . and that they used to send them into holes to get vermin. . . Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm maybe I can train Dex to bark like crazy when a raccoon comes for a midnight visit. . . .
