Puzzling Sound

The other evening hubby was sitting at the computer reading internet stuff when Ember started her usual routine.  She came over and started pestering hubby in an attempt to get him to give her a milk bone treat.  He asks her if she has finished her dinner.  She "replies" by dancing around and attempting to hug/wrestle with him, which makes it difficult to stand up and check her bowl to see if she is "telling" the truth.  Usually, the food is only half gone, and hubby tells her to finish her supper.  The usual prancing tantrum continues until she finally gives up and finishes her supper.  Then the pestering begins anew.  Hubby asks her to show some manners, she sits, and she gets her milk bone for dessert.  Sometimes she is under the impression that one milk bone is not enough.  More pestering and wrestling ensues, followed by a stern "No".

On just such an evening, after Ember had supposedly stopped trying for seconds on dessert, hubby resumed his reading when he heard a puzzling sound coming from the dog chair in the living room.  What could it be?  Snap, pause, snap, pause, ....  It warranted a review, so he got up walked into the living room to find Ember dismembering a blue vinyl glove that she had stolen from the kitchen table.  She was having so much fun and was quite disappointed when hubby took her toy away.  A few days later she pooped out part of the glove.  What won't that dog eat?

That is how long the power was out here.  Many more are still without power.
WPS and WE Energies are Very Busy

On the plus side, the inside of the fridge is clean now.

The Question of the Evening

Will the local Independence Day fireworks displays finish before the big thunderstorm hits?

Here we go again.

Trimmed, Again

And ready for summer.

Dog hair is itchy, especially when it goes up your nose.
