It's partly why I write my blog, to preserve these times. Good for you for figuring out the techie aspects of it all but I suspect it might be time for a shiny new laptop!37paddingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400464105403622384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-37353587103416513952015-12-03T05:18:10.659+00:002015-12-03T05:18:10.659+00:00Oooh.

When I first got my dogs all those many years ago, they did exactly the same thing and completely shredded a plant I had mothered for a very long time. I remember coming home and finding the mess and yelling at the dogs and calling them bad dogs. While I was cleaning up the mess, I turned around to see two of the cutest little fuzzy heads peeking around a corner watching me. My anger just evaporated. How could I be mad at something so cute.

He made no attempt to train or socialize those dogs and when I found them in the turtle pond for the second time terrorizing Big Mama (this was when she was much smaller and lived in a child's wading pool) I was furious. told him to do something about those dogs, fence his backyard or something cause if they killed my turtle, they were gone. he asked a friend to care for them temporarily but they escaped and were gone.<br /><br />as for the cassettes...how did you digitize them? I have several I have been hanging onto that a friend recorded for me and I would love to be able to listen to them again.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-19622370435571673722015-12-02T17:22:52.242+00:002015-12-02T17:22:52.242+00:00Can you believe we still have not one but TWO cass...Can you believe we still have not one but TWO cassette players? But you've made an excellent point. I have some of my grandfather's fiddle-playing, my sole effort at singing solo at a music festival, and a few other things I'd like to keep. Time to get on it.<br /><br />You must have been zonked out like Olga was in yesterday's photo to have slept through the destruction. And now, a moment to remember your poor plants ...jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-81063727739576901102015-12-02T14:42:14.194+00:002015-12-02T14:42:14.194+00:00laughing at Olga...she is a typical dog after all ...laughing at Olga...she is a typical dog after all ha !!!

It is very possible that in a few years time we won't be able to make the switch. I am already looking forward to you and your brother squabbling over peanut butter and jelly sandwiches! "Mom!
