Hi Crazies<br />My boxer earned her keep today.  Lynda only worked half day today and was home this afternoon.  She was sitting at the table in our breakfast nook when Heidi (our Boxer) started growling.  When the boxer growls you pay attention because they seldom do it.  Lynda looked up and there was a man at the fence wanting her to come out.  Lynda opened the door and let Heidi out.  What ever he wanted it no longer was important and he left in a hurry. Don&#39;t know too many people who want to mess with 70 lbs of muscle with a bad attitude.<br />Best watch dog in the world.  <br /><br />Ed....Great news on the HMO decision.  LA is closer to you, isn&#39;t it?<br /><br />Andrea....Know the &quot;pre-planning&quot; can be stressful but it is easier to do now.  My mom passed 1-1/2 years ago and had her funeral planned for years.  It not only saved a lot of money it made the whole ordeal so much easier.  I just went over everything in her plan with the funeral director, added a few things and the planning was done.  At that time the last thing you want to be doing is making a lot of plans.<br /><br /><br />
