Nana and a boo boo! The Dog Is In Trouble Again!

Our dog does the strangest things!  I heard my man say, "Where in the world did this wood come from?  How did the puppies get a stick in the house?" 

 I thought, "Sticks?!  I love sticks!  The dog must have a stick.  Wish I had a stick."  Ahhh, a mystery. A challenge.  Let me snoop around and see what I can find!

In the dining room, I found it!

The scene of the crime.  The dog had actually removed a wooden spoon from the dishwasher when my lady wasn't looking!  He snuck it into the dining room.  For some reason, he thinks under the dining room table is a good hiding spot.  Hmmph!  Doesn't he realize everybody and anybody can see you when you go under the dining room table?  A good hiding spot would be under a bed!

Well, not only had he stolen a wooden spoon.  He had stolen my lady's favorite knife!

He ruined the spoon!!!  Well, never to be one to pass up a good opportunity . . .

I picked out a good looking piece of spoon . . .

And took off as fast as I could.  But alas, I always listen when my lady calls.

And for my good behavior, what do I get?  That dad-blasted camera flash in my eyes.  But, hey, I got my stick and she let me enjoy it for a while.

Good lady.

How to Stay Cool When It's 101 Degrees Outside

Hi ya'll!  Have you been outside lately?  If so, then I don't need to tell you how hot it's been around here, but just for the record:  101 degrees was the high yesterday!  The "low" this morning:  77 degrees.  Folks, it's H O T ! ! ! So I thought it would be a good idea to teach everyone how to stay cool and keep yourself safe when it's scorching hot outside.  Read carefully:

1.  First and foremost:  stay inside and reeeeelax.

2.  Drink lots and lots of water.

3.  Chill out (aka take lots of naps).  Even the dog knows to do this.

4.  Keep those potty breaks short and to the point.  No dilly-dallying in this heat.  Remember your lady or man is out there sweating while you do your business.

5.  If you have to go somewhere, keep that A.C. cranked up to full speed.

6.  Eat a frozen treat every now and then.

The best is ice from Couch's Barbeque.  Especially if you can find it soaked in Coke or sweet tea!

This one is good, too, but you have to wait for your lady or man to share with you.  Whereas, you can help yourself to the ice/tea/coke if you pay close attention to when and where the man puts his glass down.

7.  Finally, and this is only for the bold and daring, take a dip in the swimming pool.  Guaranteed to chill you down.

And there you have it:  my tips for keeping your cool until this summer heat is over.  Hope you learned something.  Stay cool!
