Hi Speakies, welcome to August!! When I was younger August meant it was time to go back to school( well here in Florida at least) and I knew my summer vacation was over. Now as an adult August is just another month that seems to blend in with the rest of the year that goes by so fast. Hopefully through out the month of August I will be able to entertain all you Speakies and share some stories as well as some interesting facts to say the least. So, let's get started.

Luee
We adopted Luee from the Humane Society in 1996. He was 2 years old, but still a pup. He has slowed down a bit; his age is catching up to him. He is the best dog anyone could ever have. Luee had to be put to sleep on April 15, 2009. Rest in Peace Pup.

Joey, how funny! I'm sitting here eating a WaWa cheesesteak sandwich as I'm reading your post.
You do know your mom is the 'twist queen', don't you? I won a couple twist contests in 'my day'..:)
