7 Quick Takes

--- 1 ---

I woke up to a very frisky, naughty puppy this morning...well, after the very nice kiss from my hubby...After I sat (figuratively speaking) on him (the dog, not the husband) for half an hour , he was much more inclined to listen to me.  I have a new dog training book from the library to read (four, actually!).  I'm very interested in the first one which came with a DVD, too. That will be good for the kids who certainly won't be inclined to read the book.

We had a lovely, little candlelight ceremony for our newest American Heritage Girls last night who were earning their Joining Awards---the first badge they receive after learning the oath, the creed, and meeting a few other requirements.  It was the first time we had done a Joining Award ceremony and it turned out quite nicely, if I do say so myself!

We'll be wearing our red, white, and blue uniforms to co-op today in honor of the many veterans and their families who give so generously to keep our country safe and free.  God bless them!

As soon as I'm done here, I'm going to start sewing a flannel nightshirt for Pipster.  He plays Scrooge in A Christmas Carol, so he'll need a nightshirt.  Those are a little difficult to find at a reasonable price, but I can make him one for less than $10.  Let's just hope it's as easy as it looks and I don't regret not paying $50!

I was just reading some more of the disgusting news from Penn State.  Doesn't it shock you that a man can witness a grown man raping an obviously young boy and not call the police immediately?  Moral relativism has gone too far when we don't recognize something like that as a crime.

No time for more Takes, Quick or otherwise; the puppy's behavior needs to be redirected...again.
