Morning all. Mary and I will make sure we don't drop too far into the cellar for the morning hours. And Paul & Doc will take care of the evening posts! Should work out great. I'll have to look at the post numbers when I finish here, to see when the big 8000 will come.
Minnie, those puppies are adorable! When I was pregnant with DD we mated our chocolate lab with a black down the street. If I remember right, there were 8 puppies, all black, and they looked just like the picture you posted. One girl, the rest boys. We gave our pick of the litter to a friend of ours. They named the dog Hickory, and boy did he grow up big! Our lab was about 70 pounds, and the mother was about 60. The last time I saw Hickory, he was 95 pounds of solid muscle! Since DD's 12, that means that Hickory may not be around anymore. Since we've moved out to MD, we've mostly lost touch with that family.
I talked to MIL last night. She said FIL had a better day. They had lunch with the church group, and took the donated bread to their local food pantry (they do this every week), so getting him out and about seemed to help some. Thanks for the prayers.
Have a great Wednesday everyone!
