DUMB DOG

"Dumb dog, Why are you bothering me? I ain't got a crumb dog. How about letting me be?"

-Annie

I am devastated...My precious plants are no more!

I love to garden. It was one of my favorite things to do in Houston and now that we have our house here it is one of my favorite past times. For my birthday, I spent over $100 on these beautiful pots and a variety of plants. I had plants of heights, textures, and colors. They have been on the back porch for over a month and are a part of my morning routine. The babies wake up, I put them in their bouncies, and then I tend to all my plants. Zeke has never bothered the plants or the pots.

Michael left a tennis ball in the back yard last night...and I think that is what stopped me in my tracks today.

I was sitting on the couch working on my bible class lesson. Today is Michael's day off and I take this time to go up to the church and get my class ready. Michael heard a noise and leaped over the couch. I asked what was wrong. He said, "You don't want to know."

I walk out side to find the contents of my large pots scatted across the patio. The plants are ripped to shreds. I also find the tennis ball covered in dirt.

What is even more ironic is last night we carried all my plants in because we had some intense 70 mile winds that blew through. I saved them from the storm, but couldn't save them from my dog. :(
