How did you enjoy your birthday? What did you do? What did you get?
And what have you been up to with life in general? ...... Have you moved your jobs yet?

Hi Kelda! You're so sweet! :-*
I've been flying under the radar this birthday for many reasons. But yes it's been quite a pleasant day. I've spent much of it working, and I've been listening to the news about this possible $700 billion bail out by my government. I'm still not sure how I feel about it. Obviously something must be done to correct it but I don't think I like the idea of a $700 billion check to the very same people who created this mess to begin with.
Yes, I started my new job the week after Labor Day. So far I like it. My boss is a childhood friend of mine (whom I haven't seen in years up until I started this job) and we've spent some time reminiscing about some of the crazy things we did when we were kids.
How is your day going for you Kelda? I hope everything is happy for you over there in beautiful Scotland. :D

David...I thought you would like this...
A PET'S TEN COMMANDMENTS....
1. My life is likely to last 10-15 years. Any separation from you is likely to be painful.
2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.
3. Place your trust in me. It is crucial for my well-being.
4. Don't be angry with me for long and don't lock me up as punishment. You have your work, your friends, your entertainment, but I have only you.
5. Talk to me. Even if I don't understand your words, I do understand your voice when speaking to me.
6. Be aware that however you treat me, I will never forget it.
7. Before you hit me, before you strike me, remember that I could hurt you, and yet, I choose not to bite you.
8. Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I'm not getting the right food, I have been in the sun too long, or my heart might be getting old or weak.
9. Please take care of me when I grow old. You too, will grow old.
10. On the ultimate difficult journey, go with me please. Never say you can't bear to watch. Don't make me face this alone. Everything is easier for me if you are there, because I love you so.
Take a moment today to thank God for your pets. Enjoy and take good care of them.

Aww, that is so sweet Jess! Thanks for posting!! #10 is something I'm so scared of. Fortunately my animals are still quite young and barring any sickness or tragedy, we won't have to face that awful day for quite a long while. :'( :'(
I do the bottom one every day! :D
