Tuesday SOL 10/14/14 - Max Writes

Mom was having a hard time thinking of something to write about, so I volunteered to write this week.  Last Wednesday, Mom took me to visit my third set of parents.  Mom & Dad along with my second set of parents were going away for an overnight trip to a concert in Fayetteville, AR.  They really like this group called "Home Free".  They make their music without any accompaniment of musical instruments -  you know, they call it a cappela.  I bet I could sing with them.

Well, whatever, they left me with Ray & Kathy.  I like it there too.  They treat me really good and I adapt to their routine.  One time I stayed there, Kathy left out the bowl of M & M's and it was really good.  But, she learned her lesson and put them away - darn!  Ray loves to get down on the floor and play - so I made sure I rested up all day so I could roughhouse with him.

Kathy didn't get home til late on Thursday, so Ray and I spent some time outside where he was covering up the wood piles to protect them from the rain.  I was just looking around the yard and checking things out.  There was a really big boom that scared me and I decided to take off.  Ray called and searched, but I found a nice yard a couple of doors away where some kids were playing.  I decided that was a good place to check out.  The kids wanted to play.  Ray found me after a little while and I went back with him.  So much for that adventure.  I guess Ray was really worried, but I was okay.

The next morning, it was raining.  If you remember from my previous slices, I really don't like rain!  Kathy tried to convince me to go for a walk with her, but I really didn't want to go out.  So no walk, but just a brief outing - long enough to do my business.

The rest of the day, Kathy and I just hung out indoors.  Mom & Dad came to pick me up and back home we went.  It was a good couple of days, but I was glad to be back home with Mom & Dad.

    I just love Max's take on things. I think he should write a book. I understand about having a difficult time coming up with a topic. Maybe I should have let Ned or Molly write for me today.

SOL 18/31 - The Realtor's Came Yesterday

Image
Yesterday, the realtor's came to look at our house.  Our realtor only brings his own people thru, so it wasn't too bad.  Max slept thru most of it until they went upstairs where he was sleeping.  He barked briefly, came downstairs, got petted and pampered a little.  They walked thru the house, in the bedroom, up the stairs, down the stairs, looked things over, asked a few questions and 15 minutes later out the door they went. Our realtor told me he has had a couple of calls - one from a neighbor (being nosy) and another from a realtor who said this house is exactly what his clients are looking for, but they had just left the day before it was listed.  But could they put in an offer sight unseen?  Really???  Is this just a realtor's ploy to make us feel good or is it real?  No offer yet, but who knows.  It could happen. I breathed a sigh of relief.  Max looked at me as if to say "Is that it?  Can I go back to sleep now?". ...

Tuesday SOL 10/23/12 - Mr. Pockets goes to school

Image
Last week there was an article in our local newspaper that I found fascinating and wanted to share it with you.  This is a story about a dog who listens as children read out loud.  It's a new program in our school district and I'm proud that our district is using this innovative program to help students learn. Animals are so loving, caring and accepting, and the students love to have someone that they can read to and to be loved unconditionally. I hope you enjoy the article. http://www.baxterbulletin.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/201210200500/NEWS01/310200014

SOS #26 - 10/1/20 - Little Pieces of Magic that have appeared in my life recently

Image
  We hear so much negativity and doubt that many become depressed in our country at this time.  It's time for us to look to the positive and find the magic that surrounds us.  Here's my list of Magic that I've discovered recently. A phone call from a friend I hadn't heard from in a while A text message wishing me a great day A positive reply to my "thought for the day" for Michelle & girls A hug or two or three from Hubby.  And some hugs given to special friends. The delight in creating a greeting card to send to someone who needs lifting up The cool morning to take a long walk and contemplate the coming of Fall The turning of the leaves A beautiful sunrise and sunset with a full moon rising in the sky Shutting off the A/C and opening up the windows The smiles we can see in the eyes of those who wear masks Talking with a special 98 year old friend who looks forward to my weekly calls The sound of the wind chimes (they were given to us many years ago by Mic...
