Mom, it was dead when I laid down on it...

do you remember that book, Officer, it was on fire when i laid down on it? By Robert Fulghrum.  His main point in that story is to be aware of your surroundings  Alert.  so you use them to your vantage.  The officer did ask the woman, why did you set fire to a mattress you were laying upon?  She replied, but Officer, it was burning when i laid down on it. 

Well, in our case this morning it was, why-do you have a dead squirrel in your mouth?

Uh it was just there,

Can you give ii to me?

Uh, no.  I found it and i want to keep it,

Can you trade for a treat?

Uh, no.  I love this squirrel with all my heart.

Will you trade for a piece of chicken?

Uh, no.  This squirrel will be with me forever and ever.

Will you look at that over there while i grab it from your mouth.?

Uh, no.  The stupid boys already tried to get it and i bit their faces off and never dropped my squirrel

Would you like this upgraded, smelly wonderfully delicious treat?

YES!  Oh no.............you tricked me and I dropped the damned squirrel.

Oh, yuck,..........I grapped the damned squirrel, Now what do i do with it?

And no, I didn't take any photos, too busy trying to trick a smart dog.  But I did  comfirm the squirrel was pretty dead and rank.

And later Andrew came and helped Frank put up the  sound bar for the living room TV. Now I can't hear the screams of the terrified squirrel as they climb the trees at lightening speed,  I am too busy listening to  The Sound of Music as we walk through the Alps with 37 kids gaining on us.

 Did you know there is a right side and a wrong side to that boning stuff you put into the thread catchers?  I do now!                                                              

 Hey, I admit my mistakes, I do.  And get rewarded with a squirrel!
