Its Springtime?

Hello everyone,

Thanks for stopping by, we all appreciate it.
Living in Colorado is really cool. Just 3 days ago we had record highs and we were sitting outside with pop with the umbrellas up so we wouldn't get sun burned. Yes, we can get sunburned too.

So what changed?

Well, when we went out this morning and were sitting on the back porch, we kind of thought it would be just like another day, a little cooler, but what the heck.

Of course, pop knew the weather was going to turn on us but he didn't tell us. Actually, I am not really sure how he would.

Anyway, we do our usual in the morning, walk around the yard, make sure no one else has been in our territory, then we usually go back in and just relax for the day that any dog would have to face. The life of leisure, while pop goes to work and makes sure we have what we need.

Pop didn't go to work today, he takes days off sometimes, so he took me for a ride. We went to the store and library for a few minutes each and then home.

After that, I noticed that the snow was starting to come down harder. Mom and Pop decide to go back out. They had a couple errands to run and then they got a Pizza.
Of course, I got to go with them. Nothing like Pizza on a cold day. Problem is, I coudldn't care less about their pizza, I don't eat them anyway.

I do care about the fact that even I knew that the driving conditions were bad. Couldn't see farther than maybe 1/8 of a mile. It was really a blizzard, white out conditions. Pop said, he should have brought his sunglasses since they have a glare protector in them and they really work in these conditions. He said that he wasn't able to see real good,(wow that makes me feel real safe), since the ice kept freezing on the wipers which kept them from working correctly. Anyway, we finally made it home safe.

When we were watching the TV, one of the things that they were saying is that several of the drivers were having trouble with the ice freezing on their wipers and they were pulling off or stoping on the roads to knock the ice off. They asked that people not do that since it was causing some problems.

Here is what I don't get. How in the world do the people that are driving know that they are creating a problem and are supposed to heed the advice of the TV news teams when they aren't in front of their TV. The last time I checked, most people don't have TV's in their cars. I don't know if pop got out and knocked ice of of his wipers, I had my eyes closed because we couldn't see anyway. I think I took a nap. I do know that he saw the news on TV about the ice on wipers and he said something about how he did knock the ice off in a different way than how they were describing it. I said yeah, sure pop. Anyway, I will let you decide for yourselves, what he really did.

Below are some pictures of the day unfolding. No snow, little snow, more snow, Buddy saying I am not going back out, Everyone back out lots of snow.

Hey Pop How About a Hair cut

Hello everyone.
As pop is writing this, I am at Petsmart getting a haircut. I had get all over pop to get me a haircut. It is almost as if he forgot all of us.
It has been 7 weeks since our last cut and lately we have been having some very nice weather here for this time of year.
Gee, I wonder what it would be like if pop wore his heavy jacket all the time. I am sure he would get warm and take it off. In fact I guarantee you, he would. I have seen him do it many times when he says he is warm.
Well, guess what pop, I can't take my coat off when I get warm. I have to pant to stay cool. That is how we do it.
By the way, what were you waiting for anyway?

Did you just forget?
Did you loose interest?
Were you short of funds?

If you were short of funds,haven't you heard of the bailouts that have been happening? Remember, I lay around the house all day and I hear that on the TV all the time. Plenty of money is going out there for all kinds of stuff. I think I am just as important.

I am sure you could have applied for some of that Tarp money. You may have even been able to get a bonus and maybe get me some treats too.

Wow, I have kind of gone into a short rant here, haven't I? OK, I will get off the soapbox and hopefully, you can keep your mind of me long enough to come and pick all of us up.

OK, I will see you soon, right pop? It is getting kind of late.

Later

Love ya, Sully, Buddy, Lena

Just to Say Hello

Hello everyone,
I just wanted to take a minute out of my very busy Dog schedule ( I need a day planner to keep up with my activities) and say hello and give a little update on things around here.
2 weeks ago Lena had her surgery and also had a hernia repaired. She had to spend the night in the doggie hospital. That meant I had the house to myself and Buddy. Great, relaxing, no F5 tornadoes around here.

Pop told me that when she came home, she would be subdued and I would have many more relaxing nights before she was back to herself.

Guess what, I think pop doesn't have a clue because the minute she got out of the car and saw me, up came the storm again. I will have to say that it was only an F3 class tornado, but I kind of expected less.

Anyway, you get the picture. She has tremendous energy and I took it easy on her becasue I knew she didnt know that she was supposed to not be so rowdy.

After a few days, we got back to our old selves again and now we are playing hard.

I wish everyone well and will talk to you later.

Love

Sullly, Buddy, Lena
