No Work Today

Thanks for making me feel better about my embarrassing moment. I do not have to watch the fire today because it's going to be in the 50's and maybe even the 60's, so we will not build a fire today. Mama says we will take a nice long walk later.

Do you ever watch Mythbusters? Mama was searching blogs this morning and found this one Christy's Coffee Break. It has a cool link to a segment from Mythbusters. It drew my interest. I stared at the computer screen when Mama played it.

I'm off to take a nap now. Talk to you later.

I'm not fired!

Mama said that I am not fired. She said she understands how hard it is to stay awake when the room is nice and warm and Mr. Sunbeam is shining down on me. I was really worried because I couldn't imagine what other job she might find for me. We all need to contribute to the household chores here.

I was fired from my previous job. Scout has that job now. Scout is in charge of helping Mama bring firewood in from the screened porch. You want to know why I got fired? You are not going to laugh are you? It's kind of embarrassing. Okay, here it is. I peed on the wood. Nature called and I was outside on the screened porch, well, it seems like the outside and anyway, I saw the wood and figured it was okay. It wasn't. Mama says wet wood doesn't burn well and she really didn't want to burn pee soaked wood, so I was fired right there and then. I TOLD YOU IT WAS EMBARRASSING!

I'm hiding my head in shame now.

The not so greyt hound,
Jack

Jack Fell Asleep on The Job

I was bad today. I fell asleep on the job. I was supposed to be watching the fire and letting Mama know when it needed more wood. My bed was in the sunshine and I fell asleep. She came in the living room and said "JACK, THE FIRE IS ALMOST OUT".
I hope I don't loose my job over this. Mama says jobs are hard to come by these days.

We Left Two Greyhound Town Today!

We went to the meet and greet today. Here we are heading out of Two Greyhound Town.





We drove and drove and drove. It takes about 40 minutes to get there.
We finally arrived and Pinky was there along with Jayden. Pinky is already adopted. She is white with a brindle patch on her butt. She's pretty. Jayden is black with some white. He seems like a cool dog. He loves being petted and having his tummy rubbed. Mama says he will find a home soon, but unfortunately the economy is hurting adoptions right now. He is in a foster home right now, but he is wanting to find his forever home.

We stayed until the end of the promo. We were worn out at the end. We took a few naps when there were not any people petting us.



After we got home, we went straight to bed. What do you expect? We are retired, you know. We only work about one day out of the month at promos, if that.




Your friend,
A very tired Jack

Saturday Night

We didn't do much today. Daddy split wood and Mama cleaned a little. Scoutie had an upset stomach. We are not sure what caused that, but she seems to be okay now.

If Scout is okay tomorrow, then we are going to a meet and greet at Petco. We LOVE meet and greets. We always know when we are going because Mama will wipe us down with doggy wipes so that we smell really good and then she will brush our teeth. She will also do our nails. We get all fancied up because we're goin' to town. LOL

Mama said she will try and remember to bring the camera so you can see us being charming at Petco.

Your friend,
Jack the "greyt" hound
