Thursday – A Little Personal – Lucy Speaks

Lucy

“Hello everyone. My name is Lucy and I have been selected by the canine team here at Fiction Favorites to come out before you. My purpose today is to let you know the boss is doing fine, but can’t crawl around with us capturing our latest activity. Since he feels the material should be current, he hopes you understand the lack of a post. Thank you and we’ll be back soon. Yes, Twiggy and Bailey are fine even though they are chickens when it comes to making announcements.”

    Thanks for the update, Lucy. And thanks for taking it easy on the Boss. He’ll be romping around with you guys pretty soon. Say hi to Twiggy and Bailey from Maddie and the kitty girls. See you next week.

    Thanks Lucy. Very brave of you to come out so publicly – how did the others take it?

      Well, Mr. Keith. I wish I could say they were little troopers but the fact is they are like jello. I think a few rounds of “get the ball,” and they will be okay. Thank you, 😀

      I will tell him, Miss Dale. Yeah, those two can get on my last nerve. They are big at barking when the door is shut. An intruder is another matter. They leave the leg clamping to me.
