Static Electricity - It Hurts!

Every time Mama and Daddy touch me and Scout, we get shocked. What is going on? Last night, I could even see a spark when they touched my nose. Daddy touched Scout and she screamed. Mama thought Daddy stepped on her foot or something. Mama rubbed us down with dryer sheets and that seemed to help. The static electricity is back again this morning, so it was time for another rub down. The weather man even said that today will be a bad day for static electricity. You know it must be bad when the weather man warns you about it. I will be glad when spring comes.

Running at 2 a.m.

This is Scout here... I'm beginning to wonder if I chose the right forever home. I woke Mama up at 2 a.m. because I needed to go outside. She took me out and I did my business. I then decided that since there was a little bit of snow on the ground that it would be fun to run some laps. Jack decided that he would join me. We ran and ran and ran. We had so much fun. Mama told us to stop and come in, but we kept running. We quit after we got tired. Mama usually give us hugs after she watches us run, but she didn't seem to like it as much this morning. Do you think it was because it was 2 a.m. or the fact that is was 10 degrees and she was only in her jammies? I say she needs to find her inner child and enjoy life like Jack and I do.

Boring Day

It's been a pretty boring day here. Mama is working. She's here, just in the office.

Scout and I have mainly just stayed in bed. Scout played for a little while as you can tell from the above photo. We heard noise outside and we saw somebody go by on a ATV. I told you we live in the country. I bet you don't see ATVs going by your house in the city. We hear gunshots a lot, but it's not people shooting each other, it's people either hunting or doing target practice. We don't like the gunshots though. It makes us very nervous.

Did you hear that Patrick Swazye is in the hospital? We hope he is doing okay.

Your friend,
Jack

Happy Sunday!

Jack and I are having a nice Sunday with our folks. We went for a ride today. We thought we were going to the park, but we only went to the gas station to get a newspaper. Mama loves to clip coupons and look at the ads.

Oh, for all you kitty cats out there, there is a coupon in the Red Plum section of the coupons for Temptations treats, buy one get one free. You might want to tell your Moms and Dads to check their papers today.

Doggies listen up... Mama said there is also a coupon for Beggin' Strips in the Smart Source section of the coupons. It's buy one get one free! We love free items!



Hope you all have a "greyt" day!

Your friend,
Scout

Saturday Morning - Watching TV With Mama

This morning Mama and I are having a slow day. We watched Pet Star. I love that show.



Now, we are watching an old movie. It's called The Ugly Dachshund. It has dachshunds and a great dane in it. You know, some people think that I'm a great dane. It's true. I've been called a great dane, a grape hound, a gazelle, a weimaraner and a rottweiler. People just don't know what a greyhound is, I guess.

I'm watching this movie so intently, that I bent my nose. Don't worry, it's okay. I've done it before.
