We’re movin around here pretty good this morning. Mamaw’s made the bed before she even got me up. She and Poppy have to talk about a couple of things cause he’s goin off to play golf with John in Lake Mills, IA. And she’s got a job interview at 12:30 p.m. Wow—it’s just one subject after another and not enough time for anything to get done! Mamaw says we’ll take a long walk after he leaves and then she’ll shower and get ready for her appointment.

Poppy kind of hated to say goodbye so I know he’s gonna miss me when he’s gone. Well, I’m gonna miss him too. And he’s not comin home tonight either! He’s gonna stay over and go see son, Michael tomorrow. He said he doesn’t know what time he’ll get home.
Off to her appointment—good luck Mamaw. See ya when ya get back, okay? I really hope she doesn’t do so good on this job interview cause if she does that means she’ll be gone all work workin and I’ll be stuck in this darned kennel. No fun…

When she got back, I could tell she’d been shopping again. Just a few little things but none the less, shopping. Good Lord, she said she went by Lens Crafters about a job too! Now Mamaw, just don’t you go getting yourself in a big hurry to go off to work—maybe I can settle down a little and be better for ya. I’m sorry if I’m drivin you crazy…

Well for God’s sake—now she’s shoving me in the kennel again and going out to dinner with our neighbor, Terry. I can almost see the handwriting on the wall… Miss Scarlett, don’t worry—be happy! That’s a laugh—what choice do I have in the matter; and with that, I say goodnight. Hurry home Poppy….
