Yeah, I couldn't breathe in there!

Don't worry about bail money, I've never had that sort of interaction with the law.

Ever see "My Cousin Vinny"

We got started today arranging some things so when our other stuff arrives they wouldn't be in the way of unloading....we feel like we can lay claim to the place now as home.....we paid our first note today, only 359 to go.........but, haven't figured it out just yet, but gonna try and pay it off early.....so, we'll see.
We are experiencing a crazy situation with Gabbie....we found some of her old toys today that were left in the truck....she hasn't seen or played with them since we left Mississippi, some of them are squeakers....which is why they have been put up while we were staying with others and had limited space....anyway, once we showed them to her she started sniffing them and getting excited....when she started squeaking the toys....she would whimper and lick the toy and then talk to it.....she took them and placed them on the futon and crawled up and laid beside them....licking and talking to them....the only thing that I could surmise was, she smells herself as a pup on them and when they squeak she thinks they are like crying pups.....she is very attentive to them and when she goes outside and comes back in she immediately checks on them.....here is a pic....
.....the yellowish ball is one of them......since it hasn't been very long ago that she cycled, I just wonder if her motherly instincts are kicking in.......if it is, I think she would make a good momma.......if it doesn't subside, we will have to put them up for good....
Anyway, she'll be without them while we are gone and she is staying at the DD3's house....probably put them in the trash before we pick her up.....there is a funny story about it....day before yesterday I put the yellowish ball in a closet, on a shelf....way in the back behind several things while Joyce had her outside.....when she came in she went to check and it wasn't there....she started trying to track it and followed the scent everywhere it had been....she came to me and barked for help, but I didn't....the next day Joyce threw her raquetball down the hall and it ended up going into the back bedroom where I had put the ball....once she went in there Gabbie wouldn't let her leave, but was demanding her to help her by whining and begging.....but, she pointed Joyce to the exact area where the ball was placed......yep, the girl has a nose that can't be fooled......she is a real Sweetheart...........

Ah, don't throw out her fav toys!!!!

Are ya saying ya wish to have them squeaking and are ya willing to have her sleeping with ya as she places them between her and you as ya sleep?.....ya may roll over on them, and she will nose ya over.....her nose is wet and cold and will wake ya from a dead sleep with it....cause she always finds bare skin, whether a foot, face, or back.....

Sounds like fun!
Her toys don't have to be out all the time do they? Poor dog is bored, needs her toys to play with.

Thanks @CntryBoy777. I kinda lurk in the background. I hope to start a journal soon (after 2.5 years of watching/reading/learning), but do not know if I have the writing skills (person of few words) to pull it off. I greatly enjoy reading your journal and am so glad you are making your new place into a home!

Hey, a person of few words sure doesn't describe me..... and there are a few that I think get through all my posts!!!!!! Short and to the point would be just fine.... Your posts on other journals/threads seem just fine to me!!!
