Poor Big Dog (Erie). He stayed outside in the rain for 3 hrs refusing to come in. He was totally soaked and shaking, which looks especially bad on a dog with bald patches ! Kinda like guys with comb-overs in the pool!!! No treats,no begging from us not even Little Dog (Kody) could get him in. Finally a downpour where I swear 1" fell in about 30 seconds sent him scrambling in the back door. Erie's going to need a shot of thorazine and a horse tranquilizer next time we lose power. Oh yeah and when he does get those shots PECO I'm sending the bill to YOU!
On a more festive note we attended the 19TH BIRTHDAY of my friend EMILY last night! Emily is the only person who I know that takes being the Birthday Girl more seriously than me. In fact, she is basically a Birthday Nazi (think soup nazi from Seinfeld this is a light hearted blog,dude). And this birthday was a blowout. We all had so much to be grateful for. Emily had spinal fusion surgery in January for scoliosis and ended up back in the hospital about week later with fluid in her lungs. Now,this operation sucks for everyone, but Emily has Down's Syndrome which has it's own set of challenges. She is truly the bravest girl I know!
Anyway Emily enjoys her birthday at a decibal level that can sometimes only be heard by dogs. I swear that 2 blocks over my dogs (again) were hiding under furniture when she opened the t-shirt with Zach Efron's picture on it! You go girl-work those lungs!! I don't get the Zach Efron thing (I have Boys)but any party with 2 cakes ,tons of presents and your best-friend making sure everyone knows it's "All about YOU" is truly awesome!
The island has returned!!!

Your half-full attitude makes the world a better place for us all , even if you couldn't get Erie to come in. And get the electric issues settled before surgery or things could get dicey!!!!
Poor Erie, he can join magoo down the street, that when there is a thunder storm, he goes into the woods and barks for hours and will not come in! And they said dogs are smart??????
on another note,,, thanks for the kind message regarding the funny comments about my birthday nazi party girl yep, she loves a party, like daughter like mother!!!!!
