And the Humin Rules:

1 - No politicking ever!!!!

Rainy rains

Thanks for that lovely poem

Safe travels to Kathy & Jim.  That’s a a lot of stops!

Charlie       What fun!    Our floors are also mud coloured.  Thank goodness for the gigantic muddy room before the kitchen.  Have fun sitting upon your friend.

Pap finally got his ownself into a regular room. We’ll see what the Docs have to say today.  

Kibo will be heading out to see his Oldies.  

The Horsey Vet will be spending the day jabbing all the horses (20) at Widgets barn.  Plus floating teeth.  Whew.  Widge & Patty had their teeth done in February so they only need their first set of spring shots today.

DIs here is Molly McPeePeeHead checking in. I hab been dry ebbery morning since I comed homd frum da sitter back on March 23rd. I had two accidents dat first week home and so far no more. Mama is confuzilated but happy dat I yam dry and da bed sheets are clean. Of course she now owns four waterproof bed/sofa covers, but better safe than sorry. Right? So Miss Chris I hab knot started on dat Proin stuff yet as Mama doesn't want to gib me drugs unless I need dem. Guess we will just have to wait a while longer and see if dis good streak of dryness holds.

Lub youse guys!

Molly McPoodle.

[Mercsmom]

For those who use Chewy. Chewy has a $20 off coupon Code. Gift20off It’s for everyone not just first purchase.

I think..... I saw a heron badger a coyote this morning.   I saw the heron SQUAWKKK! They are the grouchiest birds on the planet.  But he kept squawking and squawking  and squawking .  I looked out the kitchen window and could see part of a dog size animal trotting off.  We don't have ANY stray dogs or cats in the neighborhood (due to said coyotes and alligators).

Molly, it sounds like something at the sit-upon house bothered you tremendously.  It would be good if you didn't have to use drugs.  We're paying about $60 a month for PROIN (plus the pee pads for his "jammies").

[palmettobug]

TGIF and it iz windee and sunnee. Mom got da day off, keep dis to yerselbs--da Galoot habs himz checkup today. Yoo all know how hexcited he gets about EBBERYFING, den habs to jump all ober Mom. What a nut!

[mychip1]

Gud morning!  Ah made da furst page!   Dat habz KNOT happened in a wile on accounta dat Mama sumtimes iz slow getting us on.

Safe Trabbels, Miss Kaffy!!!

[LBass]

Mam, I'm glad Pap is getting looked after at the horsepiddle. I hope he's gonna be AOK.
I think that habing those handicapped tags to use at those times when the walk ahead is going to be painful and exhausting for you would be a very wise choice.   Ma says that the draining effects ob chronic pain when walking should knot be soft peddled.  She was always exhausted before her first hip replacement.

Miss Kerry, it may be that Miss Oh!C Nancy's forsythia is in a protected location, gibing it a micro-climate allowing it to bloom earlier that your. 
Lupin, I'm mightily relieved that you are knot on a grocery shelf butt are safe, and sound, and home wif Miss Kerry.

Here, we finally ahb sunshine after 3 days ob rain Rain RAIN.  I am soo ready for the sun!

Bitzi has Molly (knot owr Molly butt another Molly) as company!  Sleep over! ParTay!!
You know, that an interesting point about no-show contractors "grooming" clients to accept whateber they get.

Charlie, your a good nurse hound.  Feel better soonest, Miss Cynthia!

Miss Chris, thank you for that marvelous poem to start off owr brand spanking new Chat Club.  It made Ma weepy. In a good way.

Safe flight home, Miss Kath y and Mister Jim!

Nutmeg, you and Zavvi are doing a great job ob sharing Miss RE Carol.  That lino cutting class sounds interesting for you creative mum.  Hope the weather is great for your walk.

Molly (Owr Molly) that is great news that you are dry again.  It is confusilating howeber.  What is going on?   I fink Miss Carol Ann is smart to hab those pee proof covers on hand. 

Roman goes to the vet and Miss Banessa gets some new brooises.   Aren't we houndies fun.

Today is a busy day here since Ma and Auntie Ann go grocery shopping and then have their one-on-one training sessions wif coach Jen at the gym.  I am gonna really enjoy the yard in the spring wif no more rain and catch a nap or two.

I was up at 4am cuz I could hear Rita wanting to go out. I rousted the others and got them out without telling them they still had hours to wait until breakfast. NoAh decided it was a good time to shout some random barks to let the world know HE WAS UP BEFORE THEM.   I had to go deep into the back yard in my nightie and leash him up.

Lovely poem, Chris. Thank you.

Caroline, will you and Bitzi be going to GIG?  So far I think it's just me, Cindy and , Nancy and Doug, and Mary Pat from our gang.

Hello my Friendlies!!

Sposed to be cloudy with showerings some today, but it seems to be dry and partly sunnings.    Teevee mens are wrong again!!!

Miss Molly, I wunner if your Momma rememmers there was a houndie in the Club years ago who had leaking and aksident ishoos because - they figgered out - the peenut butters they were using had too much salt in it.  And when they switched to a differnt kind (or stopped using it all together), the ishoos cleared up.  Maybe that's what happened???

Miss Lizabeth maybe that birdy was protecting a nesting??  Tho I think they nest in trees.  Hmmmm...     But there's coyotees everywhere, ya know.   

Thanks for the snakkings Miss Jenn!!!  But some of em didn't come throo on my lappytopper!!!    There's plenty for everyone tho!    

Momma thotted that pome was particularly good for the Club this time.  I been trying to change it up lately so the first postie isn't just boring and the same.  You gotta change things up!!

Miss Nutmeg, has your Momma maded any printings from her lino art??  Is that what they are gonna be for??  Sounds like you and Zavvi are slowly working things out maybe??    

Safe travelings Miss Kathy and Mister Jim!!!   

Mam, we sure  the Mister Pap gets alla this worked out soon and can come home riteawaykwik!!   

Miss Nancy, Momma loves those olives too.  Which is funny cause when she was a kidlet she didn't like em at all!!  There's this one vendor that she sees at lotsa the craps show around Chrispmix she goes to that only sells differnt kinds of olives - plain and flavored and stuffed and others - she could spend so much bikkie munnies at that booth!!!  Her favorite is garlic stuffed green olives!!  She could eat jars of those things!!   

Miss Patsy!!!  How are you doing???  Are you gonna be ready to go traveling soon??

Mister Roman!!!  Be a good houndie!!!    

I hadded a good time - essept for the laying down for so long part - going to give my bloods yesserday.  I got, like, haff a bag of chikken jerkies, and a whole can of wet foods!!!          It was awesome!!  During the whole proseedure Momma was talking to the vetamarian that runs the program about my teefs looking pretty good, and Momma menshuned Flizzie's gotta have a dentill - Dr Heidi is the one who got us into the program that tested me and Flizzie's DeeEnnAyy for that bleeding disorder - and that Momma was having trubble finding the Amicar for her.  And Dr Heidi wented and got us two little bottles of it for FREE!!!  That's cause I don't ever use the heartworm pills I could get for free from them, and Dr Heidi said it all worked out kinda even.  So Momma was super duper appreshative and almost cried!!!  

Now Momma's gotta get Flizzie's dentill skedooled and she's gonna be a mess about it!!    I mite hafta have one later this year too.    

We are getting a big groshree delivery this affernoon, and Momma mite get some more garden chores done.  She's gotta get alla the deck and frunt door pots cleaned out and ready too cause she's getting the itching to go to the plant nersery!!    

Wishings for a finiky Friedday for all my Friendlies!!

BYE-EEE!!!

I was wondering about something like that too. There was one time when I thought Lila had suddenly developed diabetes or something because she was drinking and peeing like crazy. Turns out some new treat was apparently made of salt.

I've gotten a couple special projects at work that are outside of my normal tasks which are making me busier that usual.  Wiki should be able to catch up on the weekend.
