Starbuck's is out of dog biscuits!


Starbuck's is out of dog biscuits. They have been for a couple of weeks. When we went through the drive-thru line yesterday, the curly-haired blonde lady told us they were still out. Well, I couldn't really hold it against her, especially since she's blonde, and I'm blonde. She offered us some whipped cream. Huh? How is that going to work? Are you going to shoot it into my mouth? Mom was visualizing something like me biting at the whipped cream while the lady squirted a can in my face. Hmm. Anyway, mom is always quick with a polite response and told the lady it would give me a tummy ache. I was slightly intruigued, but I guess I'll have whipped cream another time. I hope the barista remembered to put dog biscuits on the order list this week!

Guilty!

Snacktime Memories

Here is one of my favorite snack time memories. Raspberry Smash! So fruity! Such anticipation, chewing through the plastic exterior to get to the petroleum goodness.




Oh boy, I thought I was really in for it when mom came home! When I greeted her at the door with sticky pink paws, she was really scared at first. I think she was more afraid for her white sofa than she was me. It reminded her of the time I got into the red Gatorade. She looked everywhere for the culprit, and finally located it. Then she laughed so hard she cried! And took pictures of me! I just can't figure mom out.

Aloha Warrior Cheif Says Declare War on Cancer! Lucy Agrees.

Our friends' dad is pretty sick, and we wish we could cheer him up in person! He lives far away, but we say our prayers for him. In the mean time, one of his sons created three PSA's to Declare War on Cancer! Here is the first, and the other two can be found on YouTube under related videos. We hope Jerry feels better soon. We hope Mr. President hears the message too.

Yellow is my favorite color, btw! Love, Lucy


the garden, and me!




Mom and our neighbor, Kay Kay, planted this little garden. Kay Kay graduated from the same high school as mom! 35 years apart, but still. Small towns don't change much, so they have plenty to talk about. Mom loves visiting Kay Kay because it's a lot like visiting her own grandma. Kay Kay looks a lot like mom's grandma, talks like her, and cooks delicious food. One time, I had a BIG accident in Kay Kay's living room. She just laughed, and didn't get mad at all. I love her! I can't wait for Kay Kay's granddaughter to come and visit again.

It should be known that Kay Kay gets credit for the irises and the little rose bush already being there. I helped with the rest!




Here is a picture of me, looking pretty, again. My first mom would be very proud!

More on Easter, Potted Plants, Me Looking Pretty

Here we are on Grandma's front porch. The day started off rough when I had a little assident with my water bowl, but a nap in the sunshine made all my cares drift away!

Grandma came out and showed me some of her plants, including the rosemary, peppermint, and wild onions she potted for mom to take home. Grandma's definitely got a green thumb! I tried to help as much as I could! Grandma sure is smart about growin' things. I hope mom doesn't let them die.



I spent the rest of the afternoon taking in the sunshine and just looking really pretty!

We headed back home and stopped at SONIC! Mom usually gives me her toast and a few tater tots, but this was Easter so I got to have a chicken strip too. What a day! Grandma and Pa Pa, two long car rides, and a trip to Sonic! Happy Easter!

Easter Flowers, Flying Snacks

We went to Grandma and Pa Pa's house on Easter Sunday, and it sure was a beautiful spring day, despite the blustery weather. Grandma's rosemary bushes were blooming, and this delectable yellow and black snack taunted me by fluttering from bush to bush, oblivious to me, and the fact that I wanted to eat him! There were many other birds and critters I wanted to check out, but mom kept me by her side. She says it's for my own good.

We also saw some of those wierd, cagey brown dogs that run around in groups. You know, the ones with the long skinny legs who leave those silly little poos all over the ground. If I left dainty little poos like that, I sure wouldn't be leaving them laying all around for everyone to see and laugh at. And they seriously need to get a grip. All that darting and hopping and snorting at the slightest noise... they make everybody nervous!

Anyway, it was a fun day. I love Grandma and Pa Pa's house!

Wednesday Night Lessons

Hey everyone! Tonight our friend Allison came over to give us a tutorial on using Dreamweaver. it was fun and interesting!

Yeah, those are cats on my desktop background! Moving on.



We learned so many fun and interesting things. Did I say that already? Fun and interesting. Some things were confusing, but Allison was a really patient and thoughtful teacher. At one point, I thought it might help to try and climb IN to the computer to sort things out, but Allison cleared things up and we moved on to the next lesson.

It was hard work absorbing all of this information, but after a while I felt like mom had the hang of things and would do okay without me.



Thanks Allison, for the lesson!

Lookin' for the camera cord thingy

We're busy lookin for the thingy that plugs the camera into the 'puter. We have some fun pictures from our Easter trip to Grandma and Grandpa's house coming soon! We had a fun time in the car and got a bath and a blowdry Sunday night. The car looks terrible, like a white fur explosion ripped through it. The Easter Bunny got us a hand vac so we can take care of that. Thanks, Easter Bunny!

If we can't locate the cord, we might have to go to the store and get our pictures on a CD. In the mean time, hum a little "on hold" tune to yourself.

Love, Lucy

Welcome to my page!




Hi, I'm Lucy! While mom and I are getting the hang of this technical stuff, here is a picture of me lovin' some belly rubs from Uncle Carl.
And yes, I know it's mostly green in here, but I am big, yellow, and pretty. That's where the page name comes from.

Happy Easter everyone!
