Dog days

It's been terribly hot here. I haven't been getting any walkies in...I have been doing lots of this: 

That is, lying about in front of the fan. Mum is having fits about the air conditioning bill, but it's just too hot to turn it off! She's still plugging away at finding a new job and I'm still plugging away at keeping her positive. We have some little humans that are hanging out here during the day, mum figured if she's here anyway, she might as well help some friends out and watch their little humans. It's been interesting for sure. Thankfully there has been no beard or fur pulling a. One has taken (adorably and endearingly) to calling me "Ogre", as she cannot say Edgar. She is also very adept at discreetly dropping her cheese crackers on the floor to share with me. I've become fond of her. Thanks for checking in with us!

  1. Cheese cracker!!!! She can call you Ogre. We're having the opposite here with the heaters.....electricity bill is going to be huge, but keeping warm is worth it!

    Good to hear from you. Hope there's a great job coming up for your mum soon (although we'd rather she stay at home with you.)

  2. She calls you "Ogre"? I bet that you can't say "Barbara" so you call her "Brat".

  3. Cheese crackers? I wouldn't care what she called me.

  4. Cheese treats are a great reason to be called a different name. I am sure you have many names that you are called. Hope you mom finds a great job soon. Sending prayers for you all.

  8. Hey Ogre! Glad you and the peep are staying cool. It's dreadful. Just don't get a belly boo boo from all the heat like I did. It ain't pretty. Hope your peep finds a new job ASAP! Until then, give her the big AROOOOO!

    Your pal, Stu

  9. Oh yes, the little peeps always drop lots of little crackers and chips. Best to stay close to them for some yummy snacks.

    Stay cool!

  10. Edgar Ogre how is Mom getting along on the job hunt? We think of you and your Mom a lot and wonder if your town has a lot of employers. Keep looking over her and we can always send you treats if you need them Edgar.

    1. She has had some interviews, but no offers yet. She's got some networking things that she is hoping will come through soon. Fingers crossed! Thanks for thinking of us, Will & Lee!

  11. Just checking in on you both. Wondering how you are doing! Our e-mail is sweetwtscot@yahoo.com please send us your address. I realized you have moved to a house and the old address which was on the Christmas card list is wrong.
