Off the air

I guess I have been off the air for a bit. A lot of driving and conference calls and all that work stuff.

We also lost Poodle. He was a good boy but just went down hill really fast. Vet thought it was probably a brain tumor. He was mostly blind and could not really walk at the end. Would take a step and then fall over, struggle to get up. Just no life left in him. He was only ten. Young when compared to Domino who we lost at 18 and Bomps who is still going strong at 20.

Was thinking about how we came to call him Poodle. We named him Snickle and somehow that morphed into Poodle. That was what he answered to when we called him. Bonspiel gets called Bomps on a regular basis but she answers to almost anything. Domino was always Domino.

The kitten, who is getting huge, will answer to Skippy but also Stinky Feet. Yes, who knows where the names come from.

As Mrs said the other day "He is not poor Poodle now but happy Poodle".

Later,
JH
