Mike seems a bit better today... barking like crazy and ate almost an entire can of tuna (sans kibble). He lost his bladder only enough last night to stain himself and not the carpet... so it's not totally good news, but it's something.
I didn't go to church today because I want to be with him and watch how he does. My brother is having a picnic in a few hours, but he lives right next door so I can come home and check on him with no problems.
I feel as though I've been slighting the Little One lately on here. I don't mean to do it... it's just that so much has gone on with Mike that by the time I finish writing about him, these posts get to be pages long.
Gidget has been really good lately (almost like another dog LOL). She still wants tons of attention, but now seems quite content hanging over the arm of the sofa and watching the world go by outside the front door. I'll post a picture of her doing that on this post.
I do have to tell you... this is funny. Michelle was over the other day, and we were coloring each other's hair... mine blond to hide the gray and hers dark brown. Well, as I was coloring hers.. of course Miss Gidget decided she had to go out. Well.. dummy me... instead of bothering to take the gloves off, I wiped them good on some paper towel and put the leash on her. As I was doing it, she backed away from me... I never realized how bad they smelled and my poor little girl got a huge whiff of that awful ammonia smell. I felt so bad!!! But.. later, I had to laugh. After Michelle had gone, I put the leash on her again to let her out and saw... are you ready for this.... little Gidgee Goo had black tips on the hair around her collar. OMG.. it is soooo cute!!! Not funny the way she got them... but cute none-the-less. There must have been a little color left on the gloves when I leashed her the first time. I swear, if there was a way to do it safely.. I'd tip the rest of her... it is soooo adorable. I tried getting a picture of it, but she just tries to nose the camera when I get close. Oh well.. she's too young to color her hair anyway.
Hi Cindy... You have so much going on.. I don't know how you find time to read everything let alone post. I've kind of been doing the same thing lately though... reading but not posting much. I'm so sorry Tuck fell off the train.. but I know he'll get right back on.. after all, he's got to try to catch up with his brother. And HOW ABOUT THAT JUSTICE... 40 DAYS!!!! YIPPPEEEE!!! Keep a chuggin' Justie.
Before I go, I want to wish everyone a safe and happy Memorial Day weekend. A wonderful friend sent this to me... check it out... turn up the volume and have the Kleenex ready. It's a tribute to World War II and Korean War veterans.

Hi Joanna,
Glad to hear that Mike seems to be feeling a bit better. He is such a sweet boy! Sorry I haven't stopped by for a while - just too tired to get on the computer after work. Anyway, I love all the picture of Mike and Katie on here! They are so adorable!!! Well, I hope that Mike continues to feel a little better each day and that you and Katie are getting your much needed rest too! Take care!
XOXOXO
Michelle, Daisy and Blue

Joanna, I love what you have done on this blog. You are such an awesmoe mom to those furry, four legged kids of yours!
I had to laugh when I read about Gidget having black tips!!!
I hope that the picnic went well for you.
Cynthia
