Thank you Congress....and TX

Thanks to Congress and Tx I will still have money for about another 43 weeks. That is another 43 weeks of searching for a job, or hoping to find something to get by on!! I hope that something comes up before I run out completely...and I really really hate living on the small amount that I am getting now (although, that is so much better than the nothing I was fearing if congress hadn't passed the extension!! At least now I can afford to pay for my health insurance, my car insurance and the cell phone that I need, just in case someone decides that they want to interview me!!).  I may also be able to still occasionally show Joce, and to continue to hunt train her...which is good psychologically for me (and the hunt training is good physically too!! Good physical therapy for by continuing to heal broken ankle).

So Christmas is just around the corner, and no-one in our house, other than my youngest son is much in a Christmas mood. I did take some pictures of Joce and Math with a Santa hat on...these turned out pretty cute...

Do I have too??

Here is Math...being such a trooper...he really didn't want anything on his head!!











When I tried to take pictures of Joce....hahahaha...that was way too funny!! She wanted nothing to do with anything going on her head!!

I have  red and white bird in my mouth....

...really..it belongs in my mouth, not on my head!!



Mom...no...I don't want it on my head!!

But I finally got her...LOL...I waited until she was asleep, and then I went in for the pictures....I have found that is the way you get the pictures you want, you wait till the mighty Clumber puppy is asleep, and then you take the pictures!!!!




sleeping clumber....now to put the santa hat on and take the pictures...hahaha

the Santa hat picture...finally
...and Joce is thinking...you woke me up for this??

So I continued to snap some more pictures...

Please let me sleep....please....

I have what on my head...NO WAY...let me get it off....

...or maybe I'll just go back to sleep...ZZzzzzzz....

Earlier in the month, when we had our first snow, here is how the puppies reacted....Joce absolutely loves it, and Math does too....they romp and run and don't want to come back in!!!




My new white blanket....I likey!!!



Yumm...this white stuff taste good too...

This is the puppy that someone told me wouldn't want to go out in the snow
LOL...there are days I have trouble getting him IN!!!

....so that is what has been happening in the last week or two. The only other thing is that Math has developed a serious dog crush on my dad, and my dad has been gone for the last week, so Math is in a serious Math depression...he stands at the gate that leads to the driveway and whines...and the longer that my dad has been gone the grumpier he has gotten with Joce!!! Dad seriously needs to get back soon....LOL...Math really needs to have some man company, he isn't happy with all the women around him...LOL
