Tech Support
So, I was kind of pleased with myself for keeping up with my New Year’s resolution to blog more and be a better social networker, but of course I was a bit premature in this since yesterday’s post proved that computers still have the ability to get the best of me. Anyway, if you are scratching your head and wondering why you didn’t seen any shoes or Googling pictures of doggy shoes, you are not alone. You couldn’t see the pictures in yesterday’s post because they weren’t there.

Alissa’s Parade of Pets

Well, at least that all this rain chased one unfortunate mouse into the house. I say unfortunate because this house contains three cats and a dog who has been known to attack poor defenseless mice. I heard some commotion in the hallway, and when I got out there this is what I saw: That’s Amber taking her house protecting duties very seriously batting around a little itty bitty mouse. I’m an animal lover, but it’s possible I might have been heard to shout, “Kill it, Amber, kill it!” during this episode. Though one could argue I was shouting because I wanted her to put the poor thing out...
