It's Never Boring Here

When we lived at the other house, we only saw two cars a day if we were lucky. We would see the mail person and the neighbor that lived down the road from us when they came home from work. Sometimes, the brown truck would come and bring us bones and beds. It was pretty boring there. There is always something going on around here. There are big trucks with equipment that zoom by. They start early in the morning and can be loud when they hit bumps. Then, there are the farmers on their tractors that drive past. There is a feed store just down the road from our house. We see bike riders pedal past several times a day. They sometimes wave if we are outside. We have the cows to watch. Mama feeds the birds, so we always have activity just right outside our window. At night, we see skunks and raccoon. Yep, it's not boring here.

Last Friday, this big piece of equipment arrived and parked in the field where the cows live.

Yesterday, they came by and marked the water, gas and electric lines. This morning, someone else was here checking on things. We are waiting for the big event to happen. We are not exactly sure what the big event is, but we definitely have a front row seat to it. We think they are going to dig holes for new electric poles because there are big poles in the field. They have been there since we moved in. We don't know what will happen after that. We hope they don't put a big barn in the field that will block our nice view. We will just have to wait and see.

Just Hanging Out

It was a hot weekend, so I just hung out on the couch. Mama said that next weekend won't be so quiet because my BUBBA JOE WILL BE HERE!!!!

One More Week!

Joey is scheduled to arrive on July 23rd. That is just one week and one day away!

I think we are ready for him. Mama still needs to bring the crate up from the basement and set it up in the spare bedroom. She said she will place it in the doorway and he will be able to see us in the bedroom at night. He will probably only stay in it a few nights unless he wants to stay longer. He's coming from a kennel, so he probably doesn't know anything different right now. I stayed in the crate for a few weeks and Jack loved it. He would get very excited when they shut the door and I was locked inside. He would prance around and tease me. I don't think I will do that to Joey.

Mama says that I need to show Joey around the house and the yard. I'm going to be his role model. Daddy said that I CAN'T teach him how to get in the RV because they don't want him to learn that from me. I still refuse to go up the steps to the RV. I stand there until they boost me up the first step. Daddy said he is not boosting two greyhounds up the steps and they hope Joey will teach me how to do it. I don't think so. Jack tried to teach me, but he would just jump up all five steps. That's crazy!

Taking It Out Of My Treat Fund?

I have a new habit and that is putting my feet on the end table next to the couch.


It's very comfy.

Daddy said that I can do it, but if I scratch the table he will take money from my treat fund to fix it.

I'm not happy about that. I gave him the stink eye.

I didn't even know I had a treat fund. I'm a little worried. I need my treats.

He really won't take it, will he?

I'm fun!

Some people think that I'm not that much fun. It's true! My opinion is that you have to be a fun girl if you wear a lobster stuffie on your head.
