[nagdu] The Labrador Who Actually Refused His Supper

[Tami Kinney]

Wow! I am glad Odie is warm and happy and that you have power. Yikes!

Ironic... The only time I can expect my finicky poodle to eat what I put 
down regularly and then be hungry for more is when it turns cold. 
/smile/ She also wants to run and bounce like a puppy... Then eat some 
more. /lol/

I'm going through my usual beginning of winter fretting that if I shave 
the poor, delicate creature she will freeze... You would think I would 
have learned by now. Just any time of year, her winter shearings just 
make her bouncier... /lol/ At least the winter cold (Portland style) 
gives me a bit of a breather in the summer budget crunch from keeping 
her curls cut down so she doesn't roast. I still have all of her 
yearling stuff in case we do accidentally go someplace *really* cold 
when she's cut down short... Say the Arctic Circle? /lool/

Hope Odie's toe is doing well and healing while he rests in the warm. 
I'm thinking of you in your landlord issue... Been there, done that, I'm 
afraid. Sigh. What a nightmare! There are laws, you know... Doesn't help 
if people don't follow them. Oregon's pretty bad... Takes forever to get 
through to any given advocicacy group... Only to find that they're so 
overloaded and underfunded that they can only tell you that your chances 
of getting advocacy are almost nothing. Scary, but true. I haven't had 
the guts to check for awhile, but I'm willing to bet that when I do, I 
will find out we're still Number One or close to it in homelessness. I 
hope you find better and can get this idiocy resolved so you can just 
live yoiur life in the place where you pay to live...
