My husband told me to tell you to ship him, but I explained about the cousin and the fact that you want to keep him local. Still, if things don’t work out, keep us in mind. I know; I must be crazy, but I’ve just fallen in love with the breed and my dogs keep me sane. My yard is fenced; I have an outdoor kennel that is escape proof, and I have a doggy door. The dogs are spoiled beyond belief and my kids jokingly accuse us of spoiling the dogs more than we ever spoiled them. Good luck, **gt.** I hope you find a loving home for Isaac. ---

Ogbligatroy durkene psot. 😃 A good time has been had by all at the cee-mint pond. Much food has been consumed along with beerverages and Jell-O shots. One has had a choice of vodka or tequila Jell-O shots. IMO, the tequila ones are the hands down winners. Anywho, dindin has been consumed. Most have departed but a few are still hangin’. Everyone has a DD. Da bear made sure of that. Don’t think there will be stragglers to spend the night but if that happens, all are welcome. Much better that than a DUI. **MOOOOOOM** has not sent me a Mumper update yet. I’m sure one will be along at some point however. Hope all the Amurrkin Mumpers are havin’ a good Labor Day weekend and all Non-Amurrkin Mumpers are havin’ a good regular ol’ weekend. 😃 ---

**{{gt}}** I’d take Spectacles, but I’m too far away and I’m not allowed pets. Home and tired. I’m going to do a whole lot of staying in this weekend. I can’t get my car fixed until the 8th and I don’t want to tempt fate by doing a lot of driving. On the plus side, I may get some crafty stuff done. Or playing Skyrim, whatever we’re calling it these days. ---

**{{{gt}}}** I’m so sorry about that. However, I’m glad to know you’re workin’ hard to find sweel lil’ Isaac a new home. Ok, everybody is now gone. I lurve my friends, but, yay! JDD and Partner, MOG, and The Wild Twins will be over tomorrow afternoon to help eat up leftovers and hang at the cee-mint pond. That’ll be fun. I am Lay Reader tomorrow. My readin’ is the OT reading about Moses and the Burnin’ Bush. God tells Moses to tell the people His (God’s) name is I AM THAT I AM. This leads me to sing in my haid, “I AM THAT I AM and what I AM needs no excuses. And, because I’m singin’ this, I’m goin’ to hell in a handbasket!” 😃 ---

**gt** , I’m sorry Isaac made you sick. Appendages crossed for finding a new home soon. **swampy** , the handbasket is the size of a greyhound, so there’s plenty of room for all of us. 😃 ---

I worked on crafts and music arrangements all day. Well, I also drove my family to the grocery store in the middle of the day. My sister and I got ice cream and then we joined my dad inside the grocery store. Doing laundry and continuing the work on the crafts and music now. ---

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. _YAWN_ 'Tis 73 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 96 for the day and maybe rain We shall see. We did get some rain and a tboomer or two over night. I woke up to pee and heard thunder at one point but I went right back to sleep, so I have no idea when the rain came through. **flytrap** now that you have religion are you possessed of an urge to go door to door and convert the 'hood? 😛 Ok, I need more caffiene and rumbly tummy is hongry. Then at some point purtification for deheathenization must commence. That shall be followed by some quality cee-mint pond time provided the rain holds off. Happy Sunday Y’all! ---
