Question of the Day: Dogs
As mentioned in the previous post, we're thinking about adopting a dog. As you might guess, "good with kids" is at the top of our list of priorities. We have a 20 year old bossy diabetic cat and a smallish yard. Please share your wisdom with us.[photo by pj taylor via flickr]

Dog Adoption: A Work in Progress

All About Pearl
Pearl is 4.5 years old, but she's so tall that she's often mistaken for a 6 year old. She likes school and can't wait to learn to read. Storytelling is her very favorite thing. She draws a lot too, but really her pictures are just another form of storytelling. She sketches things quickly to...

All About Carrie
Carrie is now "two half," as she likes to say. She has very strong opinions and does not keep them to herself. She is the loudest member of our family. She makes up for a limited vocabulary with VOLUME.  Her grimace is well-oiled and menacing. Like most two-year-olds, she adores the words NO and...

Artfulness
Carrie's into rainbows these days. Pearl prefers animals. Above is a desert scene complete with a cactus, a scorpion, and gila monster and 10 coyotes wearing bandannas. Below there are birds in a tree and dalmatians. I can't identify everything. Feel free to correct my captions, if necessary!

Quotable Carrie
I don't know whether to blame the parasites or the empty fridge or the inate stubborness, but Carrie's favorite sentence these days is a command: I WANT STUMPIN TO EAT!

Update from Houston
We have power in our house now, but the DSL service is extremely spotty. It still might be a while before I'm able to post regularly. We are working on restoring the "familiar" to our lives.

We R Bracing for Ike
So far, Ike has sent us only wind.  Since our neighborhood is neither a flood zone nor an evacuation zone, we are packing up loose stuff (would-be missiles, as one expert put it) and cleaning up. It's been a morning of preparation. Everyone finished their antibiotics for the parasite yesterday. As...

Surviving Ike
We still have no power but our neighbors hooked us up to their generator so the phones and DVD players are charged, and I'm sitting in front of (their) fan. Marcia is out scouting for ice to keep the cat's insulin cold. We are safe.

Hurricane Ike: The Aftermath
We survived the hurricane with no damage to either ourselves or our house. So far we are not affected by the flash floods, although this picture taken from our porch is the house directly across the street. It's our second day without power, running water, or Internet.

Hurricane Watch
I am trying to like IKE, but he doesn't seem very trustworthy, does he?Houston is all a scurry, with everyone stocking up on everything. It's hard to ignore the feeling of frenzy with the 10 car lines at the gas stations and the folks making mad dashes down the aisles of the groceries.  Today the...
