Hi ya Missy!
Hey, Maddox, you're almost as bad as Mimi & her early mornings! Is that Minnow in picture #10? So sorry you needed an extra pain pill, Cora. Sure hope it helped you sleep through the rest of the night.
Papa always quotes somebody we don't know. He says that today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday. Me, I don't worry about anything at all. Actually, I'm not sure what it means to worry. I'm not going to work today, it's cold and there's a pile of laundry in the warm laundry room that is calling my name. Off to my morning nap.
Your pal,
Rebel

Hello Dr. Pia & Glue Squad,
I am late today as we have had a TERRIBLE TIME getting onto the blog. We still can only see 6 comments from yesterday. I hear there were 33. What the heck is going on here? Ruby wants to be part of the action. The only way I could get on to today's blog was to go to the top and go to blogs. Can someone help me and goofy non techno Mom? I want to read the 33 comments from yesterday. How? Why are only 6 showing up?
Missy, Girlfriend, you are a glam in the first shot. I love seeing all my peeps. Anyone, please help Mom and me. We know the system has gone to Martha's and things are changing, but why can't we see the 33 comments Maddox can from yesterday? HELP!
Love and licks,
Ruby

Hey Ruby, Mom says she had trouble getting on earlier today but when she just tried she looked at yesterday's post (well, I made her so I could look at pictures of my beautiful Francesca Baby) and saw all the comments. Maybe it's all fixed now? Although what does Mom know, she's the one who couldn't get that email address right

Hi Dr Pia & Glue Squad, What a way to start the day, boy was I surprised. Thanks for your weekly posts, pictures, captions and all you do. Minnow looks so comfy in your arms. Well, it was pretty cold today and morning temperatures in single numbers, brrrrrr.
but guess I have to wait a couple more months
Can't wait for spring so I can spend more time outside
Hi to all my friends and buddies, hope everyone is doing well today.
Till next time,
Missy Chow
