Bully Sticks Are Coming!

Mama received a coupon code for Best Bully Sticks today, so she placed us a BIG order.  Grandma and Grandpa gave us money for Christmas, so we spent it!  We are so excited!  We love bully sticks!  I think Grandma was shocked when she learned what they were.  LOL   I guess when you think about what they are, it is kind of gross, but we like them. Mama read an article where Cesar Millan recommends them over other chews.  He said they are highly digestible and that's why he recommends them.  Mama likes them because they keep us busy in the evening and they help keep our teeth clean.  We like them because they taste good.


Here is the coupon code, if you want to place your own order: JANSAVE10.  It's for 10% off. It expires on Friday.  It's not the best savings, but I think the most they ever offer is a 15% off coupon and that only comes once a year.

Surprise Visitor

Yesterday, we had a surprise visitor.  No, it wasn't a squirrel, rabbit or raccoon. However, there was a rabbit in my enclosure last night, but that's not what I'm talking about.  Mama's best friend called and said she was coming to town with her brother and wondered if Mama wanted to go to lunch.  They have known each other since second grade.  They talk every day, but don't see each other very often because she lives in another state.  They saw each other at Mama and Daddy's surprise anniversary party but before that, it had probably been seven years since they visited.  So, Mama said "sure, come on over!"  
It was fun having her over.  I chattered and chattered.  She thought it was so funny.  I showed her my new ramp and my toys.  She laughed when I played with my toys.  I put on a good show for her, I think.   They went out for lunch and drove around all the areas they visited as kids.  They visited their old grade school because it has changed a lot since they met there 40 years ago.  Yep, they have known each other for 40 years.  That is crazy!  Mama had been wanting to do this sort of thing for a long time, but it had never worked out before.  Her friend lost her job in August, so now she has more free time and it just worked out that her brother wanted to catch up with an old friend of his.  It was a fun day for Mama and us.

I think today will be just a regular day and I hope I can catch up on the sleep that I didn't get to catch up on yesterday as planned.

Nice Weekend

We had a nice weekend.  Saturday, we went to the park and walked and walked.  Scout thought we walked too much, but I wanted to keep going.  Mama said that I did walk too much though because my leg was sore after we got home.  It was worth it to me.

Saturday night, Grandma and Grandpa came over and got to see our Greyhound Expressway. Grandpa had helped build it, but he didn't see the official sign until Saturday night.  He thought it was pretty cool.

Yesterday, we just hung out.  I was tired.


Last week, we had computer problems.  A Trojan attached itself to our computer and didn't want to leave.  Mama kept removing it and it kept coming back.  It got so bad that she couldn't boot up the computer.  Mama decided to re-install Windows.  She didn't know if it would fix it, but she had to try.  She had read that all of her pictures and documents would be gone, but to her surprise, everything was still there.  She installed a new anti-virus and has been running the heck out of it and so far, the computer has been running great.  She still needs to back up all of our pictures in case the computer dies.  She does it from time to time, but hasn't done in the last few months. Scout said that Mama used to really get upset if the computer had problems, but I thought she was pretty calm about it.  I guess she is learning not to sweat the small stuff even though the computer is necessary for work.  She has a laptop, but it's harder to use for work.

Joey Isn't Quiet When He Sleeps

Scout here with a video showing Joey sleeping.   Sometimes he makes a noise like a horse, but this is not it.  I would be embarrassed if I did this, but not Joey.  He's a typical boy.  He can do things and not care how he looks.  Mama said it's good that he can "dance like no one is watching".  I'm not sure what that means, but I'm too dignified for that.  It's like when Mama walks in the room and says "who has gas?"  Why does she even have to ask that?  We all know it's Joey.

It's Official...Greyhound Expressway Is Open

Yep, the sign arrived yesterday.  Mama said we should have some sort of ceremony but we were not interested.  I was just interested in enjoying the day.  It was 67 here!  It was so nice!

I definitely take after my big brother, Jack.  I love being out on the deck just like he did.

I know that he would have loved the Greyhound Expressway, too.
