Tonight Eric and I were able to go to the Yolo County Fair and hear his brother Mike play with Texas Hold’em. I took video – but the sound quality is so poor I don’t want to share them. They were much better than that!
Instead, check out his website – Michael Osborn Music – for great clips!
I did get some ok photos – it was dark and I don’t have a flash.
The Brothers! 🙂
We own a house now.
We have promised the boys that once we own a house we would get a dog.
We own a house now.
With a great back yard….a great fence.
And, we’ve had two offers just this week!
One offer is a seven yr old Beagle. The youth pastor and his wife breed Beagles and this is a momma they need to ‘retire’. We are told she is a great dog. They didn’t debark her but someone else did…we are told that can be a plus in Beagles. But it is still sort of sad. She isn’t housebroken so she’d be an outside dog – that is what she is used to and that is what Eric prefers. Plus, if we should travel, the youth pastor’s wife said they would keep her for us while we are gone. And, she is free! But what if she is too old to transition well into a family? What if she is miserable out back and the boys don’t play with her like she needs?
The other ‘offer’ is not quite an offer but it is…confusing, I know. A family friend’s Australian Shepherd had puppies with unknown poppa and they have 10 puppies that need homes. Ruth visited this week and picked one out for us. LOL But neither Eric or I are wild about the idea of training a puppy. And both of us have had negative experiences with Australian Shepherds. This offer isn’t really an offer because Eric has declared “no puppies”. Hmph! But as I don’t want to be the one training him/her, I’m not pitching a fit.
Plus, I’m still overwhelmed with everything we need to do to make this house our home…is adding a pet really the right thing to be doing?!
I wish I knew!
Edited to clarify – “is adding a pet RIGHT NOW really the right thing to be doing?!”
