Very interesting stories Linda.
I'm ticked off at you. ANOTHER monkey on my back because of you! I checked out Gerry's blog, read a few posts and am hooked. Thanks a lot!
I have tried to follow Jean. Is it possible? Perhaps I'm doing it wrong. It gave me some message, like I would not get notices of updates or some such nonsense.
I'm really busy right now with son-stuff and trivia night stuff, but this summer we need to at least get together at TD's. I have something else up my sleeve, too...
Last weekend the Adopt a Thon was held in Joplin. I did not dare go over as DH is not ready for a dog and I am not sure I am either even though I long for a dog pal! In horrible heat, over 1000 people lined up for dogs and cats. Isn't that something! They came from far away even. One little girl named her dog Joplin. I wonder how many dogs were named Twister that day??? :)
Thanks for the links...especially Jean Whatleys. I love her writing, but alas, for some reason I can't update my laptop to quicktime...and seem unable to find a way to follow her blog; soo frustrated here.
Yeah, I read Pat's blog post. Then I clicked on a link and began looking at all the older/senior doggies in the St. Louis area that need homes. In my heart and mind, I "adopted" a sibling for Vern...but then my senses came back! As long as I'm living and can take care of a dog, though, I will have one...and he/she will ALWAYS BE A DOG FROM A SHELTER OF SOME KIND! I don't believe in buying one!
Wonderful post and with so many diverse 'imagine'!
Wow, Linda. I'll have to set aside a bit of time to check out those posts. Thanks for the heads up. Susan
