Barley is a sweet dog who was attacked by another dog. She had to undergo extensive surgery to save her life. Go read about her here and please help out if you can – remember that every bit helps!

“I have captured you, dastardly mouse!”
Note the litter stuck to her foot. When I let them out of their room in the morning, about half the time they go running into the bathroom. Mariette likes the tub, and it was a little damp from Fred’s shower a few hours earlier, so of course – when one has damp feet, what does one do immediately after vacating the shower? That is correct, one puts on one’s litter shoes.
Angelo, hangin’ on the stairs.
Chillin’ on the stairs.
I’d been out working in the yard, and brought them a couple of gum balls. We have Sweet Gum trees all over our property, and the lawn is carpeted in Sweet Gum fruit, which we call gum balls (see what they look like at the top of the page here – right now).
Aside: OF COURSE Martha Stewart has instructions on how to make Sweet Gum wreaths.
Mariette took a break from batting the gum balls around.
And then she grabbed the one Angelo was playing with.
Eventually, both gum balls ended up at the bottom of the stairs, where I stepped on them. In bare feet. Which is always pleasant.
Angelo, lookin’ pouty.
Mariette, lookin’ smug.
