Here’s Venus. Fiercely protective of my kids. Often sleeps in doorways facing out to the hall. Will sit at the end of the yard facing out to the street, always keeps herself between the kids and the road. She lost her owner a little over 2 years ago and for some reason she picked me to cling to. No idea how old she is or what breed, but we think she’s at least 12.

And here is Captain Zdeno, aka Zdeno, aka Pup. He left us December 2020, just two months after this photo was taken. I share it now years later because he was the coolest, I will miss him forever, and never get tired of sharing stories about him. Homie battled raging diabetes for 18 months, the first month in which the vet said he needed emergency services and literally might never go home again. We ignored that vet, took him home, and he ran around for 18 months. Poor pup went blind REAL quick, which sucked at first but he got used to it just as quick as it happened. I miss his snuggles but I know hes happier now that nobody is chasing him for insulin

Zdeno was awesome. Was the spitting image of our Beetle. Same coloring tho she was 100% Schnoodle. Diabetes and Cushings ravaged her and her sister, Derby and they both passed within a few months of each other.

Now we have Finn. A lovebug with a seriously stubborn and sassy streak.

I always loved seeing pictures of Beetle, cuz of how much she resembled Z.

Dogs are the best

These are our two girls...they are whippets and are super sweet to each other. Penny, the one on the right loves to snuggle in on the couch when the Bruins are on!!

We had a black lab growing up -- Fonzie. Ostensibly my dog. He was quite a character and I miss him.

My brother Bob and wife Sara, who live in Glasgow, have a whippet named Tina. She's hilarious. When we skype every week, she'll meander into frame. She's the queen, or she acts like it. Blissfully oblivious to the fact that her every need is taken care of.

I love dogs and wish I had one, but a] not fair to keep in an apartment without a yard, and b] more importantly, I'm too lazy to take the dog out to do his business in the morning.

I did encourage my brother Michael, divorced, dating yet working from home, to get a dog. And he did. Duck is a Sheppard, and very sweet. Mike has a backyard, too. :)

Seems we've had some big news in the Karen Read murder case this morning. Seems the FBI has determined John O'Keefe wasn't killed by a car...

Big news. Along with the text messages...

Almost like whether you like him or hate him, TB was right about the Feds getting involved.

And now that the FBI determined he wasn't hit by the car(which was obvious to me), that means the planted broken taillights, and dog bites etc is real.

The plot thickens

I love your post here for the simple fact that you said “the plot thickens.”

By the way… I love “the plot thickens” as much as I love “little did he know…”

Damn last week I loved LOVED my job and then I found out I am severely underpaid. So now I am moving to another restaurant for more money.

Ever since Darden bout Ruth Chris place has gone to hell and multiple people are leaving

Sad I was so happy there for awhile
There's a lot to unpack here but I'll just focus on one thing. Tread carefully. Keep chasing the money and you might find yourself chasing the happiness that you just left.

How many places has it been since moving? I think you have replaced Dojji as my all time favorite.

Apparently they have more, but for some reason the Judge shut things down after saying they would go all day if needed after the last session.

They provided even more evidence these people all knew each other and weren't being honest.

They aren't fooling the FBI.

Both are trumped by "Meanwhile, back at the ranch."

My brother Mike turned me on to "The chances are slim and none. And slim just left the room." :cool:

Mediocrity borrows.
