Artsy Fartsy Friday Returns

It's Friday!!! Know what that means? Lots of fetch for the next 2 days!! WOOHOO!!! The answer to Mom's questions are, no I'm not tired of playing fetch yet and no I don't have anything better to do than play fetch and yes I can play fetch by myself but it's not much fun and no my legs haven't fallen off yet.

First, I got an award from Dannan. I can't get the picture to cooperate so it's just going to have to stay where it is. It's supposed to be to the left, but it really wants to be centered. Anyway, Dannan is a new friend and he's really funny and cute (not like I have a crush on him cute, I want to make that very clear because that's how rumors get started and I don't want my bestest boyfriend Flash to think I'm cheating on him). Thank you Dannan!!

I'll do some thinking about who to pass the award on to.

Next I want to thank everyone for going to visit mom's new blog. She's all embarassed about it and is very happy that so far everybody likes it. The yummy cookie recipe that is not for dogs is posted today. I made sure she grabbed the card before she left. Good thing cuz she had some of the measurements confused.

Artsy Fartsy Friday is finally returning!!! Another post about Mom! Her head is going to explode with all the bragging I'm doing about her! Don't worry, next week it will be all about me again and her head will shrink back down to normal size again.

I'm going to share with you another one of Mom's photography pieces. This one is called Below Timberline. She was sitting in her chair on a camping trip once and looked up at the Aspen trees and had one of those spiritual moments. Cool huh? I'm hoping we get to go camping next summer. Last summer Mom had her surgery and was in no condition to go camping, this summer we moved and so my paws are crossed we get to go next summer! Mom hopes so to because she hasn't taken any new nature pictures in a long time and she says she's goingthrough withdrawl.

Hope you all have a good weekend! For those in the Hurricane Ike area that are still without electricity, I hope you get electricity soon and can post how you're doing SOON! Especially Mona and the Mommy! Sammy, Roxie and Andy have been able to update us on them, but it will be nice to hear directly from Mona that she's doing okay. My dad's uncle is bored. His wife went back to work (she works at a bank so they were one of the first to get power back) but Dad's uncle works at a place that isn't high on the priority list so he's been hanging out with other people in his neighborhood that can't go back to work yet and are bored because they still don't have electricity either. He's been making ice for the neighborhood since he has a generator for the fridge. He also finally had time to read the owner's manual on his generator and found out he should have changed the oil in it after Rita. Oops!
