Hi, Lulu here, guest blogger. I thought Dee was getting a little too political talking about saving democracy and the like, so here’s the world as I see it. From the Aussie perspective.

That’s me, “helping.” I’m very helpful around the house despite constant complaints about barking at neighbors and leaving behind tumbling’ tumbleweed fur balls everywhere I go. I’m a herder so make sure my sheeple attend to my every need and get to bed on time every night so I can get my beauty sleep.
Let’s see. The other day my tummy was a bit off and I even turned down a frozen peanut butter Kong. Turns out I’m not supposed to eat pocket combs. It fell out of J’s pants while Dee was sorting laundry. What else was I supposed to do with it? Anyway, that’s over, and all without a trip to Dr. Becky.
The weather’s cooling down and it’s perfect for Chuck-It in the park. As usual there’s a whole new crop of friends so we’re going to have to start fine-tuning the invite list for Dee’s Blizzard Buddy group. It started during COVID, when people couldn’t socialize and Dee thought, why not allow our dogs to socialize in the inclement weather? So we entertain guests on certain nasty weather days, one at a time, for an hour. It’s enough time to get the zoomies out in order for canines and humans to get a good night’s sleep.
I’m an imperfect hostess but do my best to chase and be chased, ball or no ball. And I especially like the frozen Kongs we’re each offered mid-visit, like kids going down for a nap at school. It’s a good system and all a dog needs is a good personality (no biting or growling), to be clean, have already used the toilet facilities outdoors and have all their shots. A pretty low bar but it’s worked well for me.
Well, enough thinking for today. Time for a well-deserved nap. Here’s looking forward to dinnertime and park time! Lulu, in for Dee today (only?)
