Fur Kids

We sure do enjoy our Cairn Terrier, Buddy, and our Tortoise Point Himalayan, Lucy.  They provide endless opportunities of humor as we watch them interact.  We take such good care of them, they're lucky pets.  We have watched on the tv news lately of sad situations of animal abuse and neglect - it breaks my heart what people do to poor defenseless animals.  One situation was 2 young women who actually ran a supposed "animal rescue" organization, but ended up just hoarding them and had pet crates crammed with several dogs and cats in each, with no food or water.  They had the crates stacked up in a warehouse.  I just can't believe what we saw.  I don't mean to upset you - but for those of us who treasure our animals and treat them well, I say -- bravo.  And please keep your eye out and help animals if you can.  Don't buy from pet stores as they get all their animals from "puppy mills".  Below is our happy little guy.

Shouldn't all animals get to relax on a cushy rug?   

Perking ears..  

I'm giving you a bird's eye view of my "nest".  My laptop computer on my right thigh, the dog on my left one, and oftentimes the cat will decide she needs a place on my lap at the same time.  So, she'll come up, and nestle in the middle of things.  See my iPad and my iPhone at the ready to the left of me?  My printer is beyond that, I was printing up agendas and reports for the Friends of Multnomah Falls meeting last night, where I presided as president for my 3rd term last evening.  My lap looks a bit crowded, wouldn't you say?  :-)

And here is a nice close up of Lucy... hubby thinks she has a mean look to her face.. I think she's hilariously cute.  What do you think? 

We went to visit our boys and their families on Sunday.  We treated them all to Popeye's Chicken for dinner.  Michael put on a new jacket that Kristi got for him and it was so funny as Hayden crawled up the back of the jacket and they looked like a two-headed boy!  

Of course, Caleb needed to try the two-headed thing out, too.  LOL!  It's so fun to spend time with them and watch the guys play and wrestle and roll about.  I worked on my crochet I'm doing for my DIL Beth.  But I got hugs and kisses from my grandsons.  They find me interesting with my jewelry and crochet hooks and yarn.  :-)

Our week of sunshine is coming to an end later today or in the morning.  I will miss it.  I am going to try to go get a photo of Mt. Hood later this afternoon, before it goes into cloud cover for who knows how long.  Enjoy your week!  What fun plans do you have?  ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
