So is time out REALLY considered effective if they sleep through it? Sorry Hudson, I'll try not to bore you next time.......... BTW Hudson just informed me that he's breaking up with a girl at his school because Sophia is his new girlfriend. When asked what breaking up means he replied with "I don't know but I just have to"...........

Though I'm not decided on the perks of arranged marriage, Hudson has just informed me that he has a girlfriend and that he loves her. Oficially I have to say that Sophia is the cutest non-related little girl I have ever met. Nettie and I have decided that the topic of arranging their marriage needs to be revisited in a few years. It was so nice to see Nettie; very nice to see the kids to play together. We decided to make some brownie's to celebrate Aunt Beth's new job.....and her last weekend at work. We worked very hard making them, the best part was the cleanup. Enjoy....

A crime has been committed. The offender as pictured below. Not a laughing matter if you saw her record over the last year. The defendant has a history of mental illness to include severe separation anxiety that requires pychiatric drugs. Being that this is the third major offence in the last year...I will throw the book at her next time. As you can see fourth of July was more than just outdoor fireworks, there were also a few indoors after I saw what Shadow did. Really if the dog wants to be loved she makes it really hard. Apparently there was some delimma while I was at work on whether it would be better to leave her in or out with the noisey fireworks. Jb and the kids went to the neighbours for fireworks. Even with sedation; she just doesn't appreciate fireworks. Guess we know for next time right? I just have to state that my educated guess would have been out doors. I guess we can turn this into a positive because Home Depot is going to appreciate all the business they will recieve because of this lovely dog
