| Gracie Ruth is a star!! There’s a website, Draw the Dog, that I stumbled upon one day, that gets it’s inspiration from real life stories that people submit. I thought it would be worth a try, as I know some of my friends get a little weary of hearing about the latest, greatest, cutest thing that Boo, Yogi or G has done. So here’s the story I sent in and the link with her cartoon. If you don’t get a chance to look at it on Wed, just scroll down a little and look for the one titled, “Tough Job” drawthedog.com ? Dog cartoons that draw themselves I'm sick to death of the rain and I want sunshine!!! There are earthworms everywhere!! It's so stinkin’ gross!! Gracie Ruth, our in-home security system, was out on the back porch the other day and giving the worms the once over. Trying to decide if they warranted the Defcon level to be raised. Darn if one of those alien things didn't wiggle and raise up a little at her. Immediately the Defcon level went from 5 (the condition used to designate normal peacetime military readiness) to a 2 (increase in force readiness just below maximum readiness). She let loose with her shrill alert siren, ear drums of nearby civilians (aka: Yogi & Boo), were nearly punctured. Glass windows rattled and groaned and were in danger of shattering into a million pieces. All the smart civilians ran indoors. The dumb civilians (me ) ran to the scene to see what carnage had ensued. From the sounds I was sure, at the very least, that a savage pack of zombies had entered the backyard. And G was valiantly fighting them off until reinforcements could get there. There she stood toe to err....toe with the blood sucking alien, protecting hearth and home. Luck for that mean 'ol earthworm I snatched Gracie Ruth up and hauled her screaming bum back inside. She stood at the patio door for several minutes growling and yammering at them. Just daring them to cross the threshold. I appreciate her heroic efforts to keep us safe, but really just wish the earthworms would, you know, like, go back into the earth. I’m so proud of my little sentinel !!!

| I hope you don't mind, but I printed out the cartoon and hung it up at my desk. This was just the cutest thing.

| Thanks guys! I'm pretty excited about the whole thing too. Gracie Ruth is such a character, it's nice to see someone else appreciate her 'sense of humor.' You can get a framed print of the cartoon, you can bet I'll be ordering it asap. I think I may need it on a coffee cup too!!
