Citizen Dog by Mark O'Hare for October 29, 2011

This is Instincts. Your call is important to us…

Good morning, Lonewolf, cleokaya, Dry, sugie, Grog, x_Tech, JP Steve, afficionado and CDers everywhere! …and puppybreath.

@ Dry ~ I wasn’t even thinking of the power lines! Oh, God…something else to worry about! I was just anticipating hunkering in until Sunday. I’m not even over last winter. How unfair that it’s starting again so early, right?Max says thanks for the complement. He grudgingly posed for the picture, and in between shots, was grabbing the shirt in his teeth and trying to pull it off!Well, here’s hoping that neither one of us (or anyone else for that matter) will be hit too hard today. Enough with these extreme weather disasters!

Instincts may be on a coffee break….or may have taken off early for the day.Good Morning, cleo, sugar, Fellow Baby & the rest of the CD gang

SPLAT! Poor Cuddles!

Good morning Fellow Baby, cleo and sugie!

Howdy StelBel, x_tech, JP Steve, and puppybreath! (Where is she anyway?)

That was a good one x_Tech!

StelBel guess we’ll see what happens! We live in the WRONG part of the country, you and I!

Instincts…OH, OH, THIS STINKS!!!Good morning Grog, Dry, sugie, StelBel and the rest of the gang whose instincts have brought you to CD.

Glad to see the storm has left you with power Dry & StelBel.

Dis stincts.

That is one h__k of a tree.

Good Morning Grog, Dry, Cleo, Lonewolf, puppybreath?, StelBel & all CDers.

Instincts to Cuddles! I can’t hear you, You’re breaking up!

StelBel our tree branches are bending heavily, power lines are covered, what a mess!

Fellow Baby just made some more cauliflower. :-) Do you like broccoli? Can’t remember if I asked you that before. Have a quick simple recipe for that too.

Fellow Baby, I didn’t buy any this week, but yes I do – not as much as califlour though. With the Holidays coming, it might be nice to have a new recipe to try. I’ve already Got my tour-duk-hen.

That’s tur-duk-hen

How tall IS this tree? Cuddles has been “falling” since Wednesday!! Unless Cuddles has a parachute there is going to be a LOT less of Cuddles when Cuddles STOPS “falling”. OUCH!!! Get a sponge.

Electricity just went off for 10 min., then on again. Afraid we’re in for a long night. Hope all is well with you, Dry!

StelBel, It seems to have stopped snowing here. It came down fast and furious for awhile. It looks funny out there. Ground covered in snow but under the trees the grass is as green as if it were summer. And our maple leaves (in my yard, that is) haven’t changed color yet, so there is green maple leaves peeking out from under the heavy snow! I should have taken some pictures, but it’s dark now and I just thought of it! Our power went out for about 3 minutes. Of course, now that the sun is down, and our low is to get to 29, I would expect more problems. Tell me, again, this is still October isn’t it?? :-D

BTW, Fellow Baby, nice Grog!

Good luck StelBel?

Thanks, Fellow Baby

Although, Fellow Baby, I must say, he looks rather silly with a turtle shell on his head, :-D! Gives me a big smile though!

Here’s the before picture.Guess Who?

I couldn’t actually change my name to that, now could I? Or maybe I can next year.

Keep people gussing for a week then spring it on them on Halloween.
