Good Morning Gals
Let's see where to begin...
Lisa, I'm not sure what kind they are, they are just old.
He's had some beauties though. I will ask my husband. He has two different ones he's restoring right now.
Tony and I took the girls to the airfied last night. While Tony was flying, I visited with all the folks that hang out at the club house. They were all loving on Abby and Daisy. One older man said, "she's an angel" talking about Abby. Isnt' that sweet? They sure got lots of attention. Daisy couldn't stand it when she couldn't see her Daddy. She is such a Daddy's girl.
On a sad note
My son works at a pizza place and he tells me about an old man that comes in there all the time and talks about his little dog, Sparky. Sparky was a 3 yr. old rat terrier. Over the weekend this man (his name is Ron) came in and told Tony (my son's name is Tony too) that Sparky had a heart attack and died. Ron was in tears. Tony said it nearly brought him to tears as well. Anyway, long story short, I'm trying to find Ron a dog. Our son talked to him about it and he said he'd love it if I could find him one. He's in poor health, so he needs one that is a bit older and calmer. My heart is just broken thinking about this poor man, who won't even go home by himself because he misses Sparky so much. He's having Sparky cremated and said he wants his ashes buried with him. I was a blubbering mess last night thinking about him.
He has a wife...thank God, but she volunteers a lot her time at a nursery, so he has a lot of free time on his hands. Today he has to go to the hospital for some tests. He told my son "If they don't keep me, I'd love it if your Mama could find me a puppy" So that's my chore for today or until I find the right dog for Ron. PLEASE say a prayer for all us that the perfect dog comes along.
This is such a busy month for us! Today is our granddaughter's birthday, she's 4. and my nephew, turns 7 today. On the 13th one of our daughters turns 25 and on the 15th another will be 22 and then on the 20th my neice turns 10! Also the daughter who turns 25 this month graduates from college on Friday and the one who turns 22 just got married on Leap Day and were having her wedding celebration on June 7, so I'm preparing for that as well this month. Plus there's Mother's Day on Sunday! Lord, help me!
I need a small fortune, lots of energy and time
We're also doing some home improvement projects that I seem to be in charge of. We're having all our hardwood floors refinished, new flooring laid in the kitchen and bathroom, complete remodel in the bathroom, new windows (I can't believe I just spent all that time washing the old windows
)
and all new appliances. Plus we're having some outside work done, like trees trimmed, etc.., that doesn't bother me as long as they are outside. I'm not actually doing the work, but I'm getting all the estimates and I'm in charge of robbing the bank
So we've got people coming to give us estimates almost every night next week and one night this week.
Lisa K, I may be coming to Boonville to take lots of walks while the work is going on. I can't have the girls here while they are doing a lot of the work. For one, I'm afraid Daisy will make a run for it with people going in and out the back door and we definietly can't be here while the hardwoods are being refinished.
Whew that's a new record for length of a post for me!
I hope everyone has a good day today!
