Thanks to all for the support. Sometimes I need that 2 x 4 delivered to the side of my head to wake me up. Although it hurts like heck, I am grateful for the wake-up it delivered.
So... by popular demand, here is a link to pictures of the new puppy. This is my photobucket account, which includes a host of other pics, including my wife with her boyfriend.
There is a story behind the one of us standing in front of the Christmas tree. Our annual family tradition is to go out and cut down our own Christmas tree. We have been doing it for 14 years now. So this year, after heavy rains, we get our grubby clothes on and head out. So we pick the tree, and the guy helping us offers to take our photo. As we are getting ready, he says, "This can be next year's Christmas card!" And the wife mumbles, "Not likely."
