Mamaw’s got plans today! All duded up with all kinds of Sunday paper ads and another BIG BAG she’s shovin me in the kennel. I understand though—she told me she has to get all of this “stuff” that was left in Michigan to their owners before bad weather sets in. She met a very nice, young man for lunch at Panera in Ames and they had a wonderful visit. She congratulated him on his job at the Fareway Warehouse and told him to stay out of trouble cause that could be a long career for him—with wonderful benefits. She warned him though, not to even take a plastic fork from the place cause they are VERY fussy.

Then she went to Bio-Life to see Dodi—and for the second time she stopped in, she found out that she had the day off. So she drove to Nevada to see her for a while and when she came home, I could smell Max on her pants. I wish I could have gone along to play with him but ya know about that stupid rule—dogs can’t go in places that serve food. And Mamaw doesn’t like to leave me locked in the car alone.

I think her vacation is beginnin to catch up with her big time! But she still took the time to make a couple of contacts in reference to a fundraiser for the son of a long-time friend who is battling cancer. She’s always good about tryin to donate things and always has good ideas about raffles and stuff.

When Poppy walked in the door tonight, I started my crazy runnin around like I did on the lake front in Michigan. That was just to let him know HOW GLAD I WAS TO SEE HIM! I was glad to see Mamaw too…(smile).

I was ready to go back to the waterbed really early tonight and Mamaw didn’t put me off this time. Off we went—and she laid on the bed like she was dead or somethin. I jumped around trying to get some action goin but it didn’t work—in fact…she put me in the kennel and said, “I need to get some sleep tonight Beautiful.” And…that was that!
