So what's new in the Blue House? Puppies. Lots of them. Lindsay's dog has nine of them.

As of yesterday all but two had found homes. I picked up Sherman last weekend, and I'm happy to report that he's a great companion. He never cries, he goes into his crate without complaints and — not counting the time he got into Kanye's (my cat's) food — he's had no accidents. Since he was a stray, I'm excited to see how he turns out. I wish I could look into the future and see if he's going to be a large, mastiff-type dog or a little yip-yip-type dog. I'll keep you informed. I'm sure you'll still be checking out this blog in a year just to see his pictures!
