Updates From Lucy's Desk

Well, I just wanted to drop in and say hello, and sorry I haven't posted in a while. I've just been up to my shnoz in paperwork, tasks, and correspondence! Paying the bills, helping mom make decorations for the big fundraising dinner, etc. has taken up a lot of my time. Anyway, it's home free for the rest of the summer, so I'll be back to answering all your burning questions as soon as I can. Send them to me!

Love,

Lucy

Mom got a new job, starts tomorrow.

Bad news, most of the plants are dead. It's just too hot. And evidently it's too hot for mom to water. The potato vines are still lookin' good though!

So Busy. And Tired!

We have been SO busy. This weekend was especially busy! On Saturday morning, we went for a long walk. We looked and looked for a black kitty that was lost, but we didn't find it. Then Grandma came, and petted me, and it was fun. Then, Kennedy came! We talked about all kinds of things, and brushed me. I am SO worn out! Today we went on another long walk. Then Kay Kay came over and petted me. And I met the new neighbor. She petted me too. YAY! Here I am on my bed. Mom is excited that I went to bed by myself and took my toy. She is really excited, because she thinks that I'm going to sleep here all night. She commented that maybe she wouldn't have to sleep on a slight slope tonight. Well, I can't let her sleep on a boring flat bed. I'll surprise her later. ;)

Oui! Garbage!

That's all the French I know. (See previous post about mom's vacation and discussion with the Frenchman).

This is what happens when your addiction is bigger than you are. You have been really good for a really long time. You know there are eggs, salsa, and half-eaten rolls with butter and strawberry jelly in the garbage bag, and every part of your big yellow body knows that you shouldn't be in the garbage bag. But, mom forgot to take it outside before she left, and the opportunity is too much to resist. GARBAGE! Eggshells. Milk cartons. Ramen noodles. Expired salad. One last drop of fabric softener. Please don't judge me. It happens to a lot of dogs.

Exhibit G:

Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th Everyone! Mom got laid off last week, but we live in the land of opportunity, so that's okay! We started celebrating by taking a ride to Starbuck's! Then we drove around some neighborhoods we hadn't seen before and looked at houses we can't afford (yet). :) I had fun checking out all the yards and trees that might someday be mine.


Starbuck's was out of biscuits again, but mom took me to Walgreens for a surprise. Porterhouse Steak treats! WOAH! Mom almost lost her fingers trying to get this shot of me, but all her fingers are still there and I'm one happy dog! MMM! What a great day it is already!
