Hannah, Bella here! I am so glad to read that you have been doin' OK. Gettin' on that scale contraption is not a good thing to do around here. When my mom gets on first that sorta sets a bad mood. Then when she gets on with me she is so glad that she doesn't weigh what we both weigh so she's happy again. It's all in how ya look at it I guess.

I am glad that you are makin' yourself all pretty for Graham. That leaves the field wide open for that Tucker guy and me. Ya know, Hannah, you just don't know what a cutie pie you have livin' under your same roof. I just love lookin' at his pictures on your mom's Photopoint albums and thinkin' boy Hannah has all the luck!

Yes, my mom did blab that I like gettin' a bath. Actually I just really like bein' wet. It doesn't matter to me how I get that way either. One time I was running in the yard through that there sprinkler thing that gives the grassies a drink. Well I was havin' the time of my life and then I decided to go run in the part of the yard with no grass and lotsa dirt and stuff. Mom didn't like that. She said I was Yucky! Imagine that! She doesn't like it either when I roll on my back in stuff in the yard. There's just nothin' like rollin' in somethin' that smells all rotten. It's a feelin' I can't explain. Anyways, the worst part about bein' wet is gettin' dry. Bein' a poodle, my mom always thinks I have to be fluffed up after I am wet. That sends her to gettin' out the comb and brush and then we have a "session." I don't really like them at all. It's times like that I really wish I was a Jack Russell or somethin' so I could just skip all the primpin'! The other day she found a knot in my ear hair. I had to sit still til she got that thing out. Big deal! Who cares if I got a knot! It's my knot, isn't it!

Well, Hannah, I am still in awe of you. You are my idol, oh Princess of Pillows, but I just had to 'splain about the bath thing. Gotta stop now so's we can hear from Cinder and Smokey and all my other friends. Wags to you and Tucker!
