Oh, goodie......rain!!

Good Morning, Family and friends, wherever you are,

I'm home, and back in my spot....one of my favorite spots...it's a lot smaller than it was when I was a puppy, and I don't fit the same way, but it's still my spot and I don't share it with anyone else. The first picture is me waiting for Daddy to get ready to go to Uncle Eli's for coffee. I had just gone down to the bedroom to get Daddy's socks, and brought them back for him. That's my cue......ROAD TRIP!! It's raining today, so there's not much goin' on outside.....Mommy doesn't like the ol' "wet dog" smell, so I only go out when it's an emergency, 'cause afterward, I have to go through this wipedown routine and it's not my favorite thing. Nope. Not.

Yesterday was a rough one. Daddy took me to the doctor to have my tick bite looked at......have to go back in six weeks for a blood test to make sure I didn't catch anything from the dumb tick. That wasn't bad, but the next thing was........now, I like the doctor, I really do. He makes of me and tells me I'm gorgeous and I'd lost five pounds over the vacation 'cause I don't really eat as much when we're traveling.....and he said that was good, 'cause 96 pounds was too heavy for me and he's a good doctor. But yesterday?? He squeezed my glands. Can you believe that?? Daddy about barfed....told Mommy she'd have to go the next time I had to have that done, 'cause the smell isn't the best. Doesn't bother me.....in fact, that's why I run my butt along the carpets, to share that smell. Oh, and because when the glands are full, they itch....I can't scratch them with my paws and no one else seems to want to help.....so I butt-rub. Anyhow, the doctor told Daddy he'd teach him how to empty them, but Daddy declined that lesson. I don't know what's the matter with him. He's sorta wussy, wouldn't you say? I know he loves me mightily, but there are just some things he won't do. Oh well.....

Mommy thinks she's having some trouble with her bad eye, so she's calling the doctor today to try and get an appointment. I hope it isn't anything bad........I'll keep you posted when we know something. The only good thing about going to her doctor is.....ROAD TRIP! My favorite!!

Hope you all have a wonderful day. I love you wicked!!
