Ok, so I think I have a created a problem. I have introduced Cooper to my daughter’s parakeet named Jake. They appear now to be fast friends. I am just not sure of Cooper’s intentions. Jake gets very thrilled when he gets near Cooper. I sometimes will hold Cooper up to Jake and let Jake peck at Cooper, and Cooper seems to really like Jake, I am just not sure if he wants to be friends or just eat him. Anyway, I got caught introducing them and threatened that if Jake gets eaten I will be sleeping in the goat barn the rest of my life. But now that I have put them together it is hard to separate them. I mean, I think they are in love, then again, I know Cooper is in love with pork chops too.

So today I got a letter at home from someone with two newspaper cartoons. In both cartoons there was a character named Frank. The odd thing was there was no return address on the envelope. Now who would send me cartoons at home? The only person I could think of who would send me these at home was my good friend Tom McGill. Oddly enough he died one year ago today.
