Simple Things

  My blogging time has been seriously limited in the past couple of days, due to the above picture (if the picture prints) and the lousy weather we’ve been having.  When it gets this cloudy, I get bumped off the network quite often.

    Back to the picture; this little guy was dumped at the end of my driveway two days ago. Rather than allow my german shepard to have it for lunch, I rescued it and now am wondering what to do with it. The poor thing was so starved you could count every rib, and it’s back end was practically non-existant. Since I doubt that it is anorexic by choice, I assume that someone had just stopped feeding it. I can’t tell the age, but it’s between 6 months to infinity, and looks like part chihuahua.

     I’m thinking of naming it “Stimulus Bill” since it was dumped on my doorstep without any ‘disclosures’, will cost me more money in the long run, and at first appearance is very pathetic. But for now, I call him “critter”.  He looks a lot like the smaller critter on the “Ren & Stempy” cartoon. 

     Must keep it short today; the thunder is rolling, the lightning flashing, and the rain falling in buckets. I’ll not complain about the rain, as I’m looking forward to the flowers that are just under the surface. That’s kind of a metaphor for life, isn’t it.

      I suppose being a “dog dump” has it’s beauty, too. I found another reason to believe that I have been put here for a purpose, even if that purpose is to rescue “critters”.
