Gumbo

[susandennis]

Gumbo is the name of my brother's new dog. Isn't that a great name?  It's actually been the dog's name for a long time but they are only picking out the dog this weekend.  After their beloved Dylan died, their other dog Bella, went into a funk.  She doesn't have anyone to swap doggie secrets with.  And it's hot so she can't even dig up new friends outside in the yard. 

They have a shelter near there that lets them bring the current dog with them to help pick out the new dog.  Isn't that the coolest? 

I wonder what in the hell we would have gotten if I had taken Betty to find Travis?!  I'm thinking the only thing she would have picked out is someone else to pet her and I'd have ended up with one of the staff! 

Anyway today my brother and his wife and Bella are all going to find Gumbo.  For some reason that scenario just tickles me. 

The sun is not out today.  So far.  Thankfully. 

I'm off to the library.  I have a book do and lots of holds and I need bread (at the grocery in the next block).  Then back here to stay cool.  I have a Weeds DVD that needs me.
