Y’all, this has been one long week. My mother-in-law died suddenly and completely unexpectedly last Thursday (March 1st). It’s been nonstop since then. And it’s looking like it’s going to be a long hard fight with her new husband, who is turning out to be a con artist. The 1st was her very first day of retirement. She was 62. My heart is just broken. You hear so many “mother-in-law horror stories” that I always just kind of assumed that that was one of the trials of life, but my husband’s mother was just the coolest mother-in-law that I could have ever hoped for. We always had an uneasy feeling about this new husband and things that are coming to light now are justifying all the bad vibes we got from him. It’s really just awful. I can’t believe that my husband and his brother and sister have to go through this.
Sorry this post is so scattered. I’m quite sick at the moment and really didn’t know what I was going to say. I just figured that since it had been about a week, I should pop my head in and say hi.
I’ll try to get my blog party post (whatever that is) up in a day or so.
And P.S. I don’t care how old you are, if you have children, you need a will. You would not believe the nightmare that my MiL not having one has caused. Please don’t do that to your children. Losing a parent is hard enough, but to be thrown into this turmoil is just horrid.
No more sad posts after this one, promise!

Hey y’all! Are you coming? Sounds like a blast 
You really should! I’ve got a prize up for grabs (probably). It’s a batch of dog treats! Yippie! (Like it would actually be anything else!) I haven’t decided which ones, but if any of y’all have a suggestion, please tell me what it is. I’d like to offer up the most desirable of treats! I think I’ve posted pictures of a lot of them here, but here are some that I don’t think I posted before.
These are “Muddy Paws” and these are “Puppy Paws”
and these are called “Honey Bunnies”

Okay. Done? Hee! I would love to tell y’all which ones of are Shadow’s favorites, but as the “Head of Quality Control” he feels that it’s important to stay neutral and gobble up any and all treats offered to him without hesitation. (translation: I have no idea which ones are his favorite because he eats them all like he hasn’t been fed in a month!)
Y’all should seriously think about stopping by between March 2nd and the 8th to Par-Tay! Woo!
