No.. she has a mind of her own.. Rotten to the core I'm afraid.. BUT! She's not a great big Boxer like your Neighbor's.. She's just a little Pug/Boston Terrier Mix.. remember..? so she can't reak too much havock! At least she won't be able to get in to any ones garbage cans.. She won't be able to reach them!!!

AWWWW such cuties, both your daughter and your new baby!!! You all have such beautiful silky hair!
I wanted to let everyone know that all that are involved with the mini-aprons, well, your handiwork is being shown off regularly at the nursing home my MIL lives. We put up a holiday tree for her and the mini apron garland is draped around it ~ changing with the holidays. It's WESTERN right now and she just loves it and gets soooo many comments from the staff and visitors. You all are doing a good thing far and wide. Thanks a bunch! ;)

Such sweet pictures Kathie. OM gosh your dog is adorable. She's got that terrier look in her eye. I have a Boston and hope yours is a calm one. Mine is 5 1/2 and she isn't calm yet. She's not to bad but she still pees on the floor when she gets upset with anyone here. She did that a lot when I started my part time job. temperMENTAL if you ask me!

Yeah.. The living Dead American Girl Collection!!!
Yes.. Annie is a true little Brat! She finally winds down about 11pm! & passes out with me on the couch.. She wants to get up there with me about 10 or so & wants to romp around for a half hour or so.. i have to threathen to put her down 3 or 4 times before she finally settles down & falls asleep in the crook of my knees.. I painted her toenails this weekend.. Butch got mad at me.. but I had done mine & she kept noticing them! she was so intersted in it all.. probably the fumes I'm thinking now looking back.. that I decided to do hers.. she thought she was hot stuff though.. I've made her a Tu-Tu.. i'll have to get a picture of it.. She's hilarious.. She flops around like she possessed til she gets it off.. I keep hoping eventually she'll get used to wearing it she'll let me dress her up in more stupid cloths.. I thing it suites her! Pearl the Chihauhua hates her guts.. & flips out on her regularly.. But Annie doesn't care.. she just continues to screw with her.... Butch bought Pearl for me when I got sick about 5 years ago.. he thought she would be nice company for me.. She laid in bed with me for about a month.. then she decided she liked him better! & he felt so badly about it.. That he went out & bought ANOTHER one!! His name is Bruno..! Bruno looks like this Minuature Rottwieler.. & acts like one too.. He doesn't seem to know that he's only 8 inches tall! He stayed in bed with me pretty well for awhile.. not as calm as Pearl was though & he kept pissing on the Quilt.. so I had to kick him out! Pearl hates him too because he's a Pervert.. She tolerates Jake the Old German Shepard.. But her Best friend is Odie.. my Old Mini Border Collie Mix.. Odie is missing several Brain cells.. Not qite sure what happened to him in the womb.. but he's just not all there.. he was kicked too many times by horses for one thing.. so he has these.. siezure episodes.. which is a bizarre thing to witness.. He just seizes up really.. lasts about 2 or 3 minutes... Not at all unlike Bev's Fainting Goats actually.. in watchinmg her Video's..! then he forgets all about it & goes on his silly little merry way.. he's now become blind in one eye.. He really is a mess.. & it hasn't yet hit him that he's NOT a puppy still! i haven't the heart to tell him either! so he keeps trying to do dumb clown tricks.. which is sad really to witness an old man behave like a kid.. I wonder if it's midlife crisis in Dogs or something.. Now Jake.. Well shoot.. he's just gone comepletley senile.. I think I told you all this though.. I'll hand him a huge Ham Bone & watch him bury it.. Then ask him where his bone is.. & he'll say "Bone..? What Bone..? What are you talking about woman? Did you give me a Bone??" & look around at the other dogs like I'VE lost MY mind..! So Pearl Hates Annie.. Bruno Ignores her.. but if she keeps antagonizes him.. he flips out on her too.. Jake I'm not sure has really even noticed her.. every once in awhile I here a very low growl coming from him & she's backing out from under neath the coffee table away from him.. So he isn't mean to her.. he just doesn't want her over there climbing on him.. & i think since she's a bit intimidated by his size.. she stears clear of him.. But she torments Odie from the moment she's released from the sewing room! (Which now has this lingering smell of a Vagarant I'll have you know..) She climbs, jumbs, crawls bites & chews on this poor man relentlesly! She grabs onto his tail & ski's through the living room.. She wants him to carry her around as she hangs on to his ears.. She does these relays in the morning or when ever she is 1st repreived .. & dashes out through the living room & around the dining room into the Kitchen & makes a full circle back around a few times more before she decides who she'll go visit with 1st! When she does decide she's coming back around.. she does what i now call her Tom Cruise move.. She slides side ways.. for about 4 feet.. then comes back again.. Risky business!
She really is a wild woman..! Loads of Fun.. But really it's a shame that none of the other Dogs will put up with her nonsense.. They just don't know how to have a good time.. Odie is the only one that at ALL will tolerate her.. & thats only in moderation.. & HE is teaching her bad habits.. Currently they are tunneling to China.. If i step into another hole from him.. I am going to string this little man up!!
So.. Yes.. Annie is great.. Attitude abounds though Girls.. as you can see!
Denise your fine.. Look how many are still out there.! we're good woman.. Nice friendly swapping here Girl!

Hey girls,
Denise, believe it or not the Nuerontin has allowed me to wake up 2 mornings in a row without excrucating pain. Now can we shout Hallujah girls. That hasn't happened in almost 2 years. Thanks for each one of you who pushed me and said ask for this. Dh said my attitude is 180 difference and my dd said I am finally perky. I feel better, still pain but hey I will take any help I can get and Kathie and Clare and my nurse practioner said it will take a bit for it to get full strentgh. I am so happy for 2 mornings of waking up with so much less pain. Makes me want to cry. Silly I know but ohh so true.
Getting there with those minis, Kathie, Teresa wants to know if she can step into number 24, she already has cut out and will be sewing with me tonight if that is okay. Hey I am not the only one with being slower than molassees. Thank you ladies!!!!!!!

Carol Sue...nice to see you with us. I took Neurontin before and I slept alot. I think also sweat alot. In time I developed an eye tick...nerve shaking in my eye, and switched meds. I don't know if it helped me or not. I took it for mood swings. I am soooo glad that you feel better.
