June_09

Here we are and the year is speeding along. Garden is dieing. POO is on the mend enough to be playful again. Car starts...most of the time.

My refrigerator problems have been fixed. It will take me the rest of the year to replace the food I lost.
The grocery store where I shop doesn't understand what small sized pasta is and my efforts to help the manager haven't gotten me what I want. In the past I could go to another large store and get all of the shapes and sizes I wanted along with yogurt and specialty items. That store changed management and went bankrupt in short order. I didn't like the new and last manager and that is why I stopped buying from them exclusively.
So I guess I will start making my pasta here at home.
In the mean time POO and I are enjoying summer fruit ( he decided watermelon is tasty ).
I'm very happy for him because he has lost 2 lbs. He is at 14 lbs. but the best I've been able to get his weight down to is 11 lbs. He is 10" at the shoulder but because of his breed defects he is 15" long. In other words he does not come close to conforming to poodle standards. And every time he suffers because of his breed defect problems I get really mad and think mean thoughts about puppy mills and the mindless merchants who support them.
Got myself a blender to go with my food processor and I'm off to find some ways to make pasta.
Oh, oh, here he comes again and he is after me for something.
I'm off to see what he has done this time-
