Well, I'm Still Alive

By some miracle, I survived the horrors of yesterday's outdoor abandonment.  Lucky for the foster parents - otherwise they might have been in jail! 

They insisted that I have another quiet day while I recover from the worst cold ever to attack a person.  I'm feeling a touch better today, and I did have a little bit of excitement when Ace, one of the dogs who lives here, came home.  He'd been visiting his Rottie friends for the last three weeks and helping out on his Uncle Billy's farm, doing all sorts of manly things and hanging out in the Man Cave.  It sounds SO cool.  I hope I get to go there one day soon - I can join the guys and hang around and drink and burp and stuff.   I did have to let out some ferocious-sounding woofs, just to let Ace know that there's another MAN in residence.  PLEASE everybody - promise not to tell that I am missing the family jewels! 

My eyes continue to get better and better, and my face is less and less swollen every day.  I'm starting to look handsome, I think.   Now that the swelling and infection and inflammation (whatever that i) are going away, I am seeing better every day too.   Today I noticed immediately that there were some new blue buckets around outside and I ran over right away to investigate.   I also feasted on some leaves when the FM wasn't looking, and they upset my stomach so I had a little surprise for her in my crate.  I'm very sneaky and can grab a leaf in a heartbeat - all she has to do is look away for an instant and I snag one!  They're so scrumptious. 

I don't get worried when I have  tummy upset because I know all my stuff will be clean and sparkly no matter what I do to contaminate it.  I've never seen anybody with such an obsession for cleanliness.  Who has two whole laundry rooms in one house, with washing machines that run all day every day (and sometimes at night too).  Geez - I no sooner get my bedding smelling just right and she's whipping it out of there and into the wash.  When I have my new family and get an allowance, I'm going to save my money and invest it in soap companies! 

Here I am, looking more handsome than ever, glistening in the sunshine...
