Still Recovering!
Having sweet dreams….
I’m pooped – Mom’s pooped – Dad’s the only one who isn’t pooped because he didn’t help me and Mom with the Teaser OR my blogaversary and Forrest tribute………..what did he do? NAPPED, READ HIS BOOK, WENT FOR A WALK – did all the stuff that Mom and I would have done if we hadn’t been busy!
But it was a wonderful day……….we had an impossible Teaser……….and we had a really GREAT time with Wags and Waves for Forrest. Mom stayed at the computer so she could comment back to everyone who took time to visit us – because it was ALSO my blogaversary, I decided to make it a commentathon and I pledged that for every comment we’d make a $1.00 donation to the shelter where I was adopted from 16-1/2 years ago. We knew Forrest would approve of this way to honor him! So how did we do on the commentathon???
We had 70 comments from YOU!
That’s right – once Mom counted them up from that post it came to a total of 135 comments and when we took out my responses, it came to 70 – and that’s a nice donation indeed!
You all are THE BEST………..I got to meet a lot of new friends too which is always nice. We want to thank again Miss Sharon of Gentle Stitches who invited us to join her in getting the tribute started – but once we did – YOU did the rest…..YOU visited us and you left messages for Miss Bev and posted wonderful wags and waves on your OWN blogs.
We will be sending our check for $70 to Fauquier SPCA in honor of Forrest. What a fabulous blogaversary celebration with a most happy ending to help out the small shelter where I spent my first days behind bars until my Mom and Dad found and adopted me!!
LUCKY ME! February, 2000
Tomorrow is CLEANING DAY – which means of course the fabulous team of Mr. and Mrs. Broomhilda will be here to get the house whipped (ouch) into shape! No worries – I’ll stay one step ahead!

what a good idea and I jump with joy for the furfriends in your former shelter Sammy :o) It’s rainy here too, so the mama has a good whitewasher to avoid the back yard today :o)

My Mom went outside yesterday in the rain to plant some stuff she’d bought – two lavender plants and some dianthus – then she decided she was tired of getting a wet head and came inside. Today will rain all day so the rest of her plants will just have to WAIT! I wonder if we will EVER see Mr. Sun again?!?!?!?!?! At least rainy days means lots of snuggles with Mom – right?
