Hope Springs Eternal!

My Mom says that should be my Motto, my words to live by.  Why is that you ask?  Because I get fed twice a day, morning and evening.  I clean up my bowl everytime I eat.  I go out of doors, at least 5 times a day, and when I come in of doors, I first rush to my food bowl and see if there is anything in it.  There never is, unless its 5 pm.  But everytime all day long, when I come in I check it.  My Mom says THAT is what Hope Springs Eternal really means.  I think she is trying to be funny, but what she doesn't know is there is nothing funny about an empty bowl..

This week, I got a very nice package in the mail,  and just nearly went crazy snoofing it and scooting it around the kitchen floor.  (The mailman must go nutz at all the wonderful smells!)  It was from Siku Marie, the White Dog.  We had put in a couple of posts for her birthday celebration and because of that, we won a drawing for a prize.  Here is what was in the box:  For me, a flashy tennis ball, a bag of treatz ( do you know Siku Marie has treatz NAMED after her? Wow), and a greenie to chew on.  My Mom got this cute mug that says:  My Dog Rescued Me! and a package of dessert coffee (raspberry chocolate).  My Mom had never had this coffee before but she says it is soooo good, she just loves it!  So we want to thank Siku Marie, her pawrents and the White Army for sending us these goodies and we love them..
Part of Siku Marie's birthday celebration was a Comment-A-thon with donations for every comment, going to Cancer Research, it was a very special occasion!

We are so deep in snow, my Mom has to shovel the back porch every couple of days, or the storm door gets stuck and I can't get out there to take care of my bizness.  She could put my leash on me and take me to the street but I don't like to go in the street.  Just one-a those things.

I send good wishes to all of you from me, Stella, my Mom and Ali Zophia.  May your bowl always be full.

Until they all have homes,

All of us
