Packing & the BBQ Thief...

So, as you can see from the photos above, Taffy (and Jedha) have been contributing quite a lot to our packing this week as we prepare to move this weekend....

...and they even helped Dad prepare steak & chicken

for the 'barbe' (BBQ in Australian)

...but a funny thing happened in the end, apparently the steak and chicken was a bit too tempting to one someone of the 'canine persuasion'...so as Dad was talking with a neighbor, someone of the 'canine persuasion' carefully removed a steak from the plate next to the BBQ... Well, if you haven't guessed who the culprit was, I'll give you a hint, he's large, yellow and furry...yep, Jedha Bug-Bear helped himself to a steak, medium rare, just how he likes it. Dad was a bit upset to say the least, but he cooled down after Mom reminded him that Jedha is a dog and if you are gonna turn your back on a steak, well....

I'm just happy Jedha was so careful as to not break my plate!That's my boy! ;o)

Comfy?

I have to laugh at our Taffy boy...he usually sleeps in our bed despite the fact that we bought him this wonderfully comfy bed for him, but lately he has wanted to sleep on his own bed. But the funniest thing is about nine times outta ten I find him like this, lying with his head and sometimes upper torso on the floor. How this is comfortable for him I have no idea but he seems to enjoy sleeping this way. We treat him like a king considering his former owners neglected him and more than likely abused him...my husband rescued him when he arrived on his doorstep in the pouring rain of the wet season in Cairns, Australia...every rib showing, afraid to come in, yet longing to have someone show him love...he found his forever home that day, and has a forever home in our hearts!
