    Well since you all like dog stories, here's what's been making me smile lately.

    Our two dogs and my daughter spend a lot of time at our neighbor's house. Her living room is probably three times the size of mine. The puppy loves to wrestle and it doesn't take long to get our three-year-old 100% involved and they're rolling all over her living room. Well, at my house, there just isn't space for that. SO when they get to wrestling here, I send them outside. Keep in mind, I live in Alaska and it's starting to get cold out. Our older dog knows that when he is in the house he is supposed to be sitting still. So, the last few days, they'll get to wrestling, and I'll say "Hey, do you two want to go outside?" He'll immediately plant his butt on the floor and look up at me like, nope, I'm sitting, see? And when I kick them out anyway, he walks to the edge of the carpet toward the door, and sits again, trying to convince me to let him stay in.

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: That is so funny!

    In the picture it looks like it might be kind of stiff but it's not. It's very pliable but it doesn't have the "buttery" softness that some of my purses have. I love the color though and the design of the purse.

    I LOL'd at that because one day I was running around the house, paid the boy next door 10 bux to mow my lawn, got made cuz my car wouldn't start and had to ask for a ride to the gym, got there and stood waiting to walk on a treadmill!

    15 min later while walking nowhere it occured to me I would have burned many more calories mowing the lawn, walking to the gym and playing with my kids!
