These came in the mail yesterday:
Luckily neither the mail carrier nor any of us got blown away last night. Very Old Dog has lost enough of his hearing that the thunder was manageable. He was standing on the bed with his worry wrinkles and his ears at full mast, staring at me to 'make it stop.' So, I put Craig Ferguson on the lap top,
and Bill and I were laughing, and every time I saw lightening, I'd rub his ears and he wouldn't hear the thunder.
Tomorrow is Maria's thirteenth birthday. We're going to celebrate!
Hug your hounds and stay safe

oh Craig Ferguson......it was lovely to hear his Glaswegian accent!
ReplyDeleteA Glasgow Boy! A wee sweetie pie!
I am glad he made you laugh!
I love the Glaswegian humour. Obviously I hear a great deal of it living so near to the dear Green Place as we call Glasgow!
love and much light Jeannie xxxxxx
Forgot to add, Marvin and I were accepted as Pets as Therapy Dogs a while back but at the last minute I felt unable to do it.
ReplyDeletePossibly because I had spent three years helping my Dad before he died, and our assignments would be Old Folks Homes, it was still to near and raw for me to continue. We will see in the future though, it is a wonderful cause. J xxxx
Happy Birthday Maria. Glad you guys made it through the storms okay
ReplyDeleteWell done on being a Pets as Therapy dog Sam I Am! You must be very proud. Look forward to hearing about your work.

ReplyDeleteCraig Ferguson makes our mom laugh, too! I would like to be a therapy dog. I went to the nursing home to visit grandma when she had to stay there last summer. I got a lot of practice. I will have to look into it some more and get the proper certs.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to Maria!!

Dear Sammie,
ReplyDeleteWe are so proud of you and your servant.
Licks,

I wear that yellow tag with pride...although I don't do much TDI work anymore. I'm too grouchy with other dogs.

Glad you all are safe -- we looked at the map this morning and Paducah seemed away from the worst of it -- but it must have been frightening.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to Maria!
Congratulations to Sam I am!
Applause for your Bucket List!
Woofs to all,
Jake and Just Harry
Congrats to Sam I am and Happy Birthday to Maria. Grammie got your book in the mail, but hasn't read any of the stories to us yet. We will have to nip at her to get it done.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on Sammy's Therapy Certification!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy Craig Ferguson too. When they asked who wrote the Star Bangled Banner, I thought of little Key Hole Head aka Francis...awwww...I loved that pup. :)
How incredibly PAWSOME on the TDI certification. I wanted to be a therapy dog, but I have too many ortho problems, so those people wouldn't certify me. HRMPH!!
ReplyDeletePeace + Paws,
Kai
Congrats, Sam and Happy B'Day Maria!! We,too, were worried about Ky. Glad all are safe. Martha and P-doggy
