My Christmas list has begun.

OK. I JUST saw something on Facebook that I want.  I mean I REALLY want this.  It's a remote controlled Flying Shark.  Seriously.  I WANT one.

Can you IMAGINE what would happen in this household if one of these things appeared from another room?!  Honestly - THIS is our chance to get on Funniest Videos.  We would become famous.  Especially when we deflate the shark.   I am putting it on my Christmas list...

Well the snow is melting quickly and the monuments are appearing.  Anyone who lives in a snowy climate knows that when the snow melts, the dog poop that wasn't scooped up during the blizzards, appears.  My human was on monument patrol on Sunday.  She was also doing general garden cleanup.  We couldn't hang out in the dog run on the side of the house because there is a loose paving stone in the run - the earth underneath must have eroded - so the stone tips down when you walk on it.  My human, being the neurotic dog owner that she is, is afraid one of us would get a paw caught.  She actually moved the stone herself about two weeks ago to fix it.  There was much groaning and the odd bad word - those stones are HEAVY.  It took her about 45 minutes.  She filled the hole with gravel and rocks and then had to move the stone back.  After much heaving and jostling she managed to get the stone back in place. And it still moved.  So she needs to recruit a friend to help.  In the meantime, we were forced to watch her yard and monument cleanup from the front hall.  With a baby gate against the screen door.  It's an entertaining show.  She really needs to get pruning shears that are painted in florescent colors.  Because, she inevitably puts them down - and then can't  find them.  So she wanders around the yard looking for them. Einstein just looks at me and rolls his eyes.  She didn't even GO in the backyard - the mole mud zone was too depressing.  She's back to her idea of hiring some terriers - or ANY dog that catches moles.  The ferret poop quest has not been successful.   

Well, I have to go and start my Christmas list.  I know it's early - but I REALLY want one of those sharks!!  Admit it - the vision of it makes you chuckle.  I NEED one.

Have a good one!
