The rain that has been snipping and snarling at us finally got here with a vengeance. It upsets the dogs when they hear thunder and see lightning and Rex kept trying to get me to wake up and sit with him. Those huge paws kept raking at my back and finally I had to get up and put him in the utility room with Bouncer.
It was hard to go to sleep anyway. I had just read the most disturbing book by Martha Grimes. She has become an animal rights activist and her new book, "Dakota" is hard for an animal lover to read. It deals with cruelty to animals but particularly that on pig farms and the places where they keep pregnant mares to obtain their urine for premarin. Kristilyn, it is disturbing but you need to read it and perhaps get in touch with some of the organizations
she gives credit to in the back of the book. There just might be a job opportunity lurking in there.
After searching for a pastry blender for Bobby, I finally found two and bought both of them, yesterday. I don't know why they are such scarce items, especially the old fashioned kind with good blades.
