Something is going on in our house. Phil and Connie are worked up about something. They cleaned and cleaned the house, made it perfect, Phil cuts the grass and it isn't even that high! Every now and then the phone rings, Connie runs around a bit, then we go to get in the car just as this woman brings other people to our house. When Connie and I come back I can smell that they have been in every room! There are signs outside too, at the edge of our lawn. What is going on? I hear Phil and Connie talking, I think he is leaving to go to Pennsylvania, she is staying here until the house sells and she says we will go to Pennsylvania to be with Phil then. What does it mean? What is happening. I am agitated, but Connie still holds me, and sleeps with me in the big bed. Phil and Connie are laughing more than they were a week ago, things seem a bit better, but still that woman comes, bringing strangers to our house.

I will fill you in as soon as I figure this all out.

On the bright side, Connie made lasagna tonight and "accidently" dropped some cheese on the floor---YUM, I was right there, doing my job of licking anything up that falls on her clean floor. I am really good at that!

We just came in from sitting on the deck. Connie and Phil were playing a game where they make words out of little tiles. They dropped one on the deck and I picked it up, before Phil could get it from me I dropped it and it fell between the slats into the black area below. They let me sit on the table with them until I tried to lay on the plastic board---then Phil put me back on the floor of the deck. Connie was happy at the end, something about making the word juicy on a triple word space. Phil didn't like it, the game was over soon after that.

So, that is the happenings here on the holiday weekend. I'll keep you updated about the people comeing through.

Life is good here in Iowa!
