Good weekend

Well, we had Pawpalooza on Saturday which ChainFree c0-sponsored and we raised a little money and a lot of awareness.  Isn't Faux the dog cute in her new fence?

We met Susie, a real dog, who was tortured by her former owner, adopted by a woman who had been attacked by a chained dog (how perfect for our story) and was scared of dogs but now loves them due to caring for Susie these years.

Donna, the mom, and 4-5 other people formed Susie' s  Hope (like ChainFree Asheveille) to get a law in the state of NC elevating torture to felony behavior and under this law you will get 10 months in jail for a first offense!  She has written a fast-moving book here in NC! 

I also saw lot of folks I hadn't seen in a while.  Jaymii did a great job at the booth and in writing up an ad for Critter today (a local newsprint magazine  so we are moving along in marketing.

Sunday we (I should say Patrick and volunteers) built a fence for two bulldogs.  I am not able to go to the fence builds in the summer due to my meds and the heat just not getting along.   After that we went to a BBQ over at Gil's house and I laughed so hard I thought I would fall over.  It is good to laugh like that occasionally.  One story is that Jim and Linda's phone was broken.  In the middle of the conversation, a machine would come on and say, "This call has ended."  How many times, now be honest, would you like for that to really work -- like having a button you press or something.  HA!  So funny but in reality so very annoying.

Did not sleep well last night. Could have been the 3 cups of iced coffee I had! Yep.

 I'll bet I'm asleep by 9 p.m. tonight.  Tomorrow is dentist time again!  Yuck.

Thanks for stopping by!
