Hi dearest friends,

Hope every doggie, kitty and hammie had a wonderful Father's Day with your Dad's and held them tight the way I wish I could have if I had a Daddy or Grandpa. My honorary Grandpa Peyton would have let me hold him tight but we didn't get to go see him cause it was a very busy weekend. He knows I love him lots anyway.

Saturday morning Mommy had to go to the dentist but I didn't pitch a fit like I usually do when she leaves me at home on the weekend, when we are supposed to be together 24/7. "I know what they do to you at the dentist, so I wanted no part of it."

This is where she goes. If you blow it up, you can see where says "We make smiles happen." That's what we need around here, some more smiling. I'm smiling but not Mom so much. While she was worrying about me she didn't take care of herself at all. She has been going to Dr Elliott for around 20 years now and has had the same hygienist, Alfred, for just as long. Being diabetic, Mommy not Alfred, he always wants to keep track of her medications and what her average sugars are. She had to tell him the truth. They have been horrible, unacceptable actuality. Mommy teeth are in great shape but nothing else is. So that means Dr Elliott and Alfred, both gave her lectures. Dr Elliott told Alfred to call Mommy's diabetic doctor and tell him was was going on. Mommy has an appointment on July 6th. "How come Mommy will listen to them and not me?"

Dr Elliott's office is in old house that he made into his office. It is way on the other side of the world from where we live but Mommy says she loves it there because his yard is so pretty and she wouldn't think of going anywhere else. These are just a few of the pretty trees there. When it's cool you can even sit outside on some of the patio chair around the grounds. It was 98 Saturday so no sitting outside this time.


We was going to you to Aunt Tina & Chris when Mommy got home from the dentist but it was too hot and Mommy decided we'd stay home instead. I was disappointed but Taz was coming over Sunday to see how we would get along so it wasn't like I wasn't gonna have company.

So when Mommy got home she wouldn't let me play outside because of the heat, so we did the next best thing. We took a nap! When the sun started going down, she let me go outside. I was minding my own business, when out of nowhere appears a big yellow cat......"I swear he looked like a mountain lion! "

So I started chasing him across the yard and he ran up the fence. Od he was so fast.



Then look what I saw, Yes!! Another mountain lion of the other side of the fence.

Mommy ran to get the camera and took a video but she can't get it to load on stupid blogger. Them cats was taunting me, just know they was!!

Before I go any further with this post I most tell everybody that I was not cheating on MY Tiger Sunday. Remember I said we was gonna be pup sitting a 7 year old dachshund named Taz, who sometimes has seizures, from the June 23 - July 3? Well let me tell you, he is so handsome. Turns out he is a year older than me and he is still intact.

Here we was checking each other out. I went to the bushes to do my business and he followed me and tried to get a little piece...."Oh NO....none of that. I've been fixed". After a tiny little snarl, he got the picture and went away but then we went in the house and we strarted playing with my toys. He played with every stuffie I have that has a sqweekie in it.

These 2 cuties are his human sisters. Glory is 13 years old and Mercy is 4 years old.

I approved of them right away cause they gave me some swell belly rubs.

Notice.........I was not doing anything to encourage Taz's actions in the following pictures.


I just couldn't keep the boy off me.

Please, believe me, MY Tiger. He was only cleaning my ears for me!!

Yep, it's gonna be an interesting week come the 26th.

Love, kisses and {{{huggies}}} to all.......Mona
