Poor Pooch! & Other News

Our little buddy went in today for some dental work. Apparently one of his puppy teeth was not coming out and the Vet was concerned it would cause problems down the road, so he thought it best to take it out now. Although Eli did great, he is still really "hung over" from the anesthesia and can't get more then a few steps in. But hey, it was my kind of dental work - knock me out and take it out!!!

The Invisible Fence is working out great. He loves his freedom. We're starting to remove some of the flags now, so we'll see how that goes.

Alice has been rather busy these past few weeks. They brought on a new Supervisor and she's been working with him and they have a new community getting started and another just about ready.

We've been "chatting" with our parents on both "sides" and everyone is doing great. It's wonderful to have folks who are healthy and enjoying life in their 80s. We hope to have my mom down for a visit soon. She's most likely going to be in Delaware in August to see her sister. Then she'll fly down the coast to spend some time with us. That will be nice.

I've been working like crazy on the book. I've done several revisions; Alice has been doing some editing; I've added some preliminary graphics and working with a cartoonist to purchase some of his work to use; and it seems like we're getting closer. Somehow that thing is taking on a life of it's own!!!

The kids are doing great in the UK. Ben is back from Germany; Heather continues to provide us with wonderful "snippets" of life with three boys; and it's fun to read both their blogs.

Haven't heard much from Paul lately, so not much to report there.

There is other news that would go under that "unspoken" format which is good news which we are very thankful for.

Still no word on selling the house in Lubbock - so anyone interested in moving to West Texas and getting a nice house really cheap!! Let us know!!!!


Ain't life grand....
