Is there the point where I should admit that I've never had White Castle? But, I me some Five Guys!!! OMG, they are sooooo good!

Our 5 Guys here in Appleton opens in early August ... CAN NOT WAIT!

I know this is bad but we went to school with a girl that they used to call Parkay! I think you all can figure that out!

You are right, that is bad, VERY bad.

(May I please repeat it? )

And don't forget everything is better with Bluebonnet on it.

We don't have White Castle's here in our part of Texas (except in the grocers freezer), but we do have Five Guys, Fuddruckers and Whataburger.

Had to go grab a snack. I did good. Passed on the cupcakes and got some veggies and dip. Found a good dip I hadn't tried before. It an avocado veggie dip with mild jalapenos - really good.

Dip sounds yummy. Where did you get it??

I just saw a story on the news with this lady crying and asking for her dog to be returned. It seems that she had the dog with her and left the dog in her car while she went to the store. The car was stolen and she states the dog was like her child.

I am sure most of us completely understand what she is going through and how devestating it would be to have your pet taken from you. My big question is, what was the dog doing in the car, alone, on a hot day like this, while the owner was completely unaware of what was happening not only to her car but to her "child" inside.

Yes, I would beat the thief senseless for taking the dog. Then I would smack the owner unconscious for putting such an innocent soul at risk like that.

Nothing...

Ah yes! The baby-catcher is in the house! (or rather on the thread but it just doesn't sound as good)

Hi Andy,
Speaking of pets, what are your plans for your k-9 kiddos while you and your brother are cruising? Is your Dad going to take care of the family while you are away?

Well... My dad is suffering from dementia. While it is not really bad, it has progressed quite a bit. With that in mind, I am not sure whether he will watch the dogs or if they will be watching him LOL. Either way, I have other relatives that will be staying at the house in my absence. I have developed a schedule for them to commit to specific times and for every person there will also be a backup person who has committed to that time slot just in case. I will be making random calls to "check up on my dad" and will ensure the coverage is there.

Sounds like a well thought out plan. Life can be such a challenge. It is cool you guys are all together and have solid family support

We can always count on you to find great graphics.

We're with you there buddy. I'm glad you have family to watch over your father. Both my dads live with us, my father (still working, bless his heart) and my FIL. They get along great. It's a long story, but I'm glad it all worked out.
My mother is in a nursing home, my MIL is in Puerto Rico. I miss both of their cooking, and them. So cherish those moments when you can. I asked both of my "dads" if they wanted to come with us in Sept., but my father didn't want to leave mom for a whole week. He sees her everyday, feeds her twice a day. I try to help when I can. My FIL doesn't like crowds, but you'd get a kick out of him. An ol' englishman from across the pond, stodgy but he'll give you the world.
and he LOVES the Yankees...shhhh....
