Sunday Morals

Always bundle up whenever you can. Even if it means stealing mom and dad's blankets.

And burrowing yourself into them.

Looking pitiful only works if mom is paying attention to you and not sewing letters.

"W"'s are hard to make.

What do you think? Will she like it?

Stormy Weather

We've had a lot of fun in New Hampster yesterday. NOT!

It started when mom woke up at 4:00 am and realized there was no power. Dad was up and getting ready for work. Since there was no power, there was no phone. So dad brought mom her cell phone and put it on the night table.

At 6:00 am dad called mom to tell her there was no school. Mom figured she would call work. Guess what? No answer there. So mom called the fax number. See, if the phone system is down it doesn't necessarily mean there is no power. But if the fax doesn't answer, then there is no power. The fax didn't answer. No power at work! The boss said stay home. Mom and PlusOne went to see memere. They had power and heat.

Mom called the house at 11:00 am and the answering machine picked up. Mom had power! Yippie. Mom came back to Lucky and me, and then promptly took us out for a ride. Mom was going to her co-worker's house. Their phone wasn't answering either.

When mom got near the door, the eldest daughter came out and said "Are you here to save us?" They didn't have power or heat and mom's co-worker was wearing a coat, gloves, hat and blanket. They came home with mom and mom got them all warmed up then fed them lunch. Their power finally came back on at 2:30 pm.

This is what the Union Leader has to say about the storm:

A devastating ice storm has left wide areas of central and southern New Hampshire without power as cold weather moves in. Many homes will not have electricity until the middle of next week or later.

We even made ABC News! Click here for their take on our storm.

In the mean time, mom is almost done with the letters for the quilt. She will show you more tomorrow.

Fabulous Friday

But only if dad shares.

Thursday Thirteen

1) Fresh out of the oven



2) What are you looking at?


3) Let me sleep, please.

8) I told you she was my guardian dog.

9) What is that thing?

10) Hey, is this the life or what?

11) Life father, like son, like grandfather

12) Don't I remind you of a dog sticking his head out the window?

13) Okay, okay, you caught me, I'll tell the truth...

The truth is mom was tired and had no clue what to do, so I let her post PlusOne photos. Aren't I a good doggie?

Wordless Wednesday

The backing came in for the quilt. Mom is going to write "With love, Blank" on the back using the two blues. As you can see, mom has the "ith" done. Ten more letters to go.

Tattle Tale Tuesday

Mom stayed up too late last night finishing the lap robe. She's tired and has a headache. She's going to bed. Betchya she looks as much like this as a bean can. Ha ha.

Monday Madness

Mom's been at it again. The order she had for the lap robe was happy, cheery rainbow colors.

I think mom likes being in the middle of everything.

Sort of like Lucky and me.

Except this time I got smart.

So did Lucky.

We stayed out of mom's way.

So, do you think mom did okay?

Is this happy, cheery rainbow colors?

Do you think they'll like it? (PS, mom apologizes for not visiting the last two days. You can see why. She will catch up with up with you all. She promises.)
