http://usera.imagecave.com/fritz85/lazybug.jpg Lazy as a bug in a rug,napping in his cubby hole.Mom and I went out for supper at Swiss Chalet.We both had quarter chicken dinners with white meat,fries,ceasar salad and a bun.Mom had coffee,I had Pepsi.We both had a Butterscotch Sundaes for dessert.Brought a piece of meat home for Fritz for eating all his supper.Snoozed next to me after we got back, went to mom ,had a pitstop outside,grabbed a newspaper and took off with it under the couch.
There is no telling what you've got hidden under that couch buddy!! If we could only see :eek: You look like a little doll!! Be a good boy! :)
First, I had to give "Fritz" a Belly rub( I could not resist!!!)
Your "Supper with Mom" at the Swiss Chalet sounds so tasty to me right now!!!!
Oh Fritz~ You're a clever little fellow~ :p
http://usera.imagecave.com/fritz85/bedbuds.jpg http://usera.imagecave.com/fritz85/toast.jpg Fritz in bed with Mom this morning,begging Mom for toast at breakfast.Stayed tight to mom last night,hardly gave her room to sleep.By morning,he had moved over as you can see.Fritz had cereal and toast with me before mom got up and then had toast with her.He slept on the bed while we went to church.had some lunch from me,Bologna on a bun,has some fruit bread,had to be careful he didn't something he shouldn't have.Cold here,rainy a bit 39 ,maybe a little snow later,this is supposed to be Spring,where did it go?
Fritz I would have to offer you my entire breakfast. Your begging is just too persuasive and I'd just have to share! :D :D I'm sorry to hear that you might get snow Barry. It is cold here too and we are having lots and lots of rain. I too am missing what I thought was spring! :)
You are one persuasive boy Fritz!! What a cutie pie you are. You might weigh alot if you lived with me and I saw a cute pose like that!! ;)
Anybody that's used to having seasons must be in shock now. We're always on a roller coaster ride here when it's winter/spring anywhere else. Today, the wind is blowing so hard it's almost like a mini hurricane :( I'm keeping an eye on the trees :eek:
http://usera.imagecave.com/fritz85/nooknap.jpg http://usera.imagecave.com/fritz85/hideyguy.jpg Fritz under the couch looking out to the front at me,then under the blanket on top of the same couch.We had subs for supper,he got a little of them after he had most of his .You can tell by the pictures he was having a nap,I had the other half of mom's sub,mom had a couple of cookies.Fritz had a little of each,went out in the rainy weather,come back in,wanted a dish of water,is now content on Mom's lap.
Fritz, you look like Fenway today - a little lazy bumm.
It's been pouring & snowing here all day. So Fenway & I have been couch potatoes.
:D
Fritz, I hope Spring comes soon. Because I'm getting sick of this winter like weather.
We can see you're not giving up any of those naps Fritz. Sounds like a plan buddy!! Stay warm :D
http://usera.imagecave.com/fritz85/peekyeyes.jpg Fritz peeking at me from Mom's chair.I don't think he likes today's forecast(weatherman is on the t.v. giving the forecast),rain,wind gusts up 40 miles per hour,good day to stay in .Last night ,Fritz begged to go upstairs,went to the window first,then went to bed on his own,bed had hadn't been turned down,Mom had a hard time with him on iot to get it ready to sleep in.When i got around 6:30 or so,Fritz is in the chair with mom,he had his toast and cereal with me,then toast with mom,went out briefly in the wind and rain for a pitstop,come in and got cuddled next to me on the couch,then went to the window where he is now.Supposed to be in the 50's by the Friday and in the 60's by the weekend, will have to see about that,then maybe I can get some Spring cleanup done.Done a little on Saturday,cutting the tops off dead plants so they can sprout up again,too wet for cleaning leaves out of the flower bed.temperatures on the tv are in celsius,tommorrow will be 50 fahrenheit,45 Wednesday,48 Thursday ,55 on Friday,Saturday,61,Sunday, 66.Mom is going to an Ecumenical dinner tonight where the ladies of surrounding churches come.It is a potluck thing where they bring food,mom making a casserole.don't know whether there is a meeting connected to this or it is just a dinner.Mom has Meals on Wheels tomorrow,Hospital gift shop later,Thursday I think it is something to with the Meals on Wheels volunteers,people who deliver meals to seniors who can't get their own meals,so Mom is keeping pretty busy.
I like hearing your forecasts because it's usually what we're going to get in a few days or it's exactly what we are experiencing at the moment. It's pouring buckets here. There are floods everywhere! My BIL is in the National Guards and he's on call for any serious flood issues and evacuations. I'm hearing the seacoast is getting slammed.
We lost power in the city where I work (Concord) but "unfortunatley", my work has a generator so we're up & running. I'm thinking of going outside and sabotaging the generator so I can go home.
http://usera.imagecave.com/fritz85/lookyout.jpg Fritz looking outside this afternoon at a man walking a Boxer.Lousy,rainy day,windy also so stayed .Fritz pretty well took it easy,played in my lap and Mom's,in the window, begged for Bologna sandwich,is very noisy with me,relatively quiet with Mom.had a short play with his Monkey.I had 2 mini Pizzas today,Fritz had some crust,also had some of the Vanilla part of a Haagen-Daz ice cream Bar.We got 4 more cards today,one from Auntie Bev's sister Corla,Terry(Daisy and Delilah),a friend of mom's who had a stroke a while back and is in a nursing home,she signed her name to it herself and another friend of mom's,cards total 98.Total amount of donations to our church in dad's memory is now over $900,Mom is just flabbergasted at the generosity of everyone who donated.
You are such a loveable little guy Fritz!! I just love seeing you. Barry's stories about you have me thinking that you pretty much rule the roost around there don't you cutie? Daisy and Delilah rule the roost here too. Oh well. What can we do but enjoy it?! ;)
Barry, it sounds like your weather is up and down as much as everybody in the country. It's actually cold outside here tonight(Well...cold for us ;) ). Tomorrow it's back up in the 80's. I think we're expecting some more cool weather too. What next?

There you are Fritz. Getting in another little snooze. Can I join you Fritzie? :)
Sorry to hear that Samantha is sick Barry. I hope she gets well soon. :)
http://usera.imagecave.com/fritz85/cozypair.jpg Fritz all paws in the air,Mom sleeping this morning at 5 after 7.Looks Fritz had a great sleep,Mom was awake for 3 hours and she said she could have stayed there.I got more yard work done today.Cut down some plants some more,raked out more leaves and weeds edged the flower bed on the East side of the yard and worked up the flower beds.Filled up 8 big paper waste bags of leaves.dad had always dumped the leaves in the flower beds to keep them warm over the winter.Next fall,they go straight into the bags.Mom said I did a great job.I know what dad would say,"You did a super job,son".It just isn't the same doing this without him,I really miss him.Mom is going to visit her friend in the nursing home.She had a stroke a while back and she signed her name to it.She even talked to Mom yesterday,someone there dialed it for her,she could talk as plain as day,better than she had been.Samantha is much better now,they went and go their new van a 2007 Metallic Blue Pontiac Montana.Haven't heard how they like it yet.tomorrow through Sunday,sunny,temperatures,50,57,63, and 64,Monday cloudy and 68.Fritz now next to Mom in her chair.Had his lunch with me,a Bologna sandwich,barked up a storm wanting some.Mom then went to pick up some groceries and Fritz got on my lap on the couch.
I have missed a few pictures and stories these last couple of days so seeing all of these pictures was a real treat. Bella said to tell Fritz that she realizes that the only way to get a good night's sleep is to totally relax with all four legs straight up in the air. :D Barry, I am glad your mom is keeping busy. That is the best medicine at a time like this. We are still all thinking of you and hope you are doing OK. It will be nice when this crazy weather is over and we can have some outside fun again. :)
http://usera.imagecave.com/fritz85/siesta.jpg Fritz having a siesta on Mom's bed.I sat on the floor and I held the camera at an angle to get this picture.I put ketchup on his food,wouldn't eat.Mom put some of our supper with it,Hamburger Pie and he ate it up,got a little more from each of us.Fritz had a little ice cream and a bit of pumpkin cake from each of us .he has been a thief today. Grabbed each of the 3 tv remotes,not at the same time,also got a coaster off the table,got meat to get it back.I think he does this to get the meat.He won't settle down at night until we have had a treat,had a ice cream bar.He had a play with each of us with his Monkey,then rested with both of us,rested in the window and panted after that.Fritz is now settled down,in Mom's lap.
Yes Fritz, we all know what you're up to Mr. Tricky Guy ;) Anything to get a piece of meat. Huh?
I was thinking a few days ago that once you started the yard work, you would miss your Dad even more. It has to be so hard to do things alone that you two used to do together. I know he would be proud of you. It's obvious that your Mom is very grateful for your help. It sounds like you two are getting along pretty well these days, considering what you've been through. I always hope for the best for you, your Mom, Fritz, and all the family. Take care :)
You will always miss your Dad, Barry. But he is part of who you are and you are great!

You're adorable little guy!! You grab that one ray of sun like Daisy and Delilah. Great pictures as always Barry!
It sounds like you're really getting alot done outside, Barry. I love doing outside work but my bum knee won't allow it anymore without severe penalty :eek: Don't work too hard. :)
Boy it looks good to see that lawn mower there!! It means that there will soon be something to mow! Spring is finally around the corner! YAY! Fritz you are a clever boy. Curl up with a loving human, play with your monkey and then run off with a shoe or something and get a treat to give it up. You are one smart cookie. :p :cool:
