This crazy puppy
This crazy puppy that belongs to my son needs to go to school and learn how to be calm. I hate getting mad at my animals because they bring me such joy (most of the time). While she is very smart she is still to crazy and way to hardheaded.
Since my son was not home she slept on the sofa in the living room and woke me up at 4:45 am. I thought that maybe she wanted to go outside for a quick pee, No she was lonely and wanted to come into my room and sleep with me or play. Well Sonny my cat did not like that idea at all so here it is near 5 AM and I now have two animals fighting all around me on the bed. Camo, my son's puppy just wants to play and does not understand why the furry kitty does not want to play with her. So after getting up again for the 3rd time I put both animals outside, hoping to fall back to sleep. No that did not happen, Camo has chew Thu her lease and the door frame and is bouncing on the glass door trying to tell me she is ready to come in! What are we going to do with this DOG, who still is growing and can easily push me down. Someone help!

So What are you doing this Mothers day
So what are you doing this Mother's Day.
Don't know yet, well I really do not know what I will be doing either. Since my kids still me owe me a birthday dinner I'm sure I know what I want, lol, OH yea a big steak dinner!
My favorite place was called called River Oaks steak house. The building is just sitting there but its been closed for
a while now. I guess the owners grew tired of working it or maybe retired. I hoping that it was that they wanted to retire and enjoy life, right. If anyone knows why that place closed down please let me know?
So now when the kids ask where do you want to go out to eat I can truly say I don't know!
Well if I do not get back here in time to write to you;
To all the moms of the world
Have a Great Mothers day.
