I am almost afraid to brag about our weather lest it change. It is so comfortable, a high of 78 today. A bit humid, but it is Missouri after all.
Jack and I have been walking and doing chores which it is normally too hot to do this time of year, like going into the attic. Normally you must take oxygen to breathe in July.
Spent the day with Mom and Finn. That pup has no sense of personal space and Jack's is well-defined. If you could only see his face as a puppy butt lands on his head and the rest of Finn ends up at his tail. Can dogs grimace? He was protesting at first, but now he just groans as if he has given up trying to teach him any manners. I do think he loves him. His previous owners came to take him for a walk with his mama and Jack was not at all pleased that some dog was with his puppy. Did a lot of husky talkin' which brought Finn back his direction. But the chance of freedom finally won and he took off up the street. Jack was pretty sad without him, but pretended to be disinterested when Finn returned. Finn had to do a lot of posturing to get Jack's attention again.
Well, better go see if the pup is up to something.
Thanks again to all of youwho are keeping up with Jack. He is doing well thanks to all of you.
Love and big Husky hugs,

No worries Debbie. Just glad you are back safe and sound. I hope ther were no injuries in the accident. Speaking of acciedents...I might not be able to post for abit. (Ok I cheated..I copied and pasted from my psot to Joanna but you will see why...)My gazebo fell ontop of me last night in that horrific thunder storm we had last night. Spent ALL morning at the clinic because my right shoulder is in excrutiating pain. Turns out that I have arthritis and calcium build up. I also have to go for a special ultrasound to see if there are any torn ligaments. The appointment is schedualed for ...get this.... Aug 19th! My arm is in a sling and I was told to rest it. On heavy duty meds but it still hasn't eased the pain. I was in tears at the clinic from the pain being so bad. That is not usually me. Over the years I have learned to tolerate pain but this...man it is brutal. Ok, all for now but pleased remember, I am reading every day about you guys. I miss you, miss you , miss you and miss you more. I wish we could just up and travel to the states.
Hugs to you and JackCynthia

The day dawned bright and cool and Jack will enjoy the day. Like me, there are a few days every summer when we really wish we could afford air conditioning. Now I try to reason that I am going green, which I am doing in every way I can. Hey I am not even driving, (okay, so my fuel pump went out), but I have walked to the store 3 days in a row, so I am benefitting healthwise and energywise. My mom keeps her AC turned up so high, it is actually more comfortable in my house most days.
Jack right now is spooning with little friend Finn(my mom's new dog) and they are both snoring away. So cute. Wish I had a camera with me.
Got my financial aid for school figured out yesterday. One thing done. I do have to find money somewhere to fix the car. Must get to school and also back to the vet with Jack for a recheck. Only $600 but might as well be six million to me. sure hope the economy straightens out soon. My problems are small compared to young families with children who are having to choose between gas and food.
Out for a walk with the boys and then to Meals on Wheels with a friend.
God bless you all in all you do today. Thanks for giving Jack back to me. Each moment I have with him is precious.
Love and Husky hugs,
Debbie and Jack
