Above is my new friend 'Hero' And Below is my friend Molly.
Mindy is the one wearing a scarf.
Today we got an early start to the day. Let me explain. My mom has this hobby of going to yard sales on the weekends. She finds all sort's of treasures, and re-sells them on Ebay. One of her recent finds was a book that she bought for .50, and sold to a woman in Germany for $135.00! You can't believe the things that people are looking for on Ebay. Some of the things she buys are too big to ship, and that cost's too much money, so she sells them elsewhere.
So, we started out around 9:00AM. This is usually late for us on a weekend. Mom says, 'the early bird catches the worm' when it comes to her yard sales. The weather men pretty much put the kibosh to the town wide yard sale day, scaring everyone from having their yard sales. Too bad, because it turned out really nice. It was actually pretty hot and humid. SO, we really didn't get much. She got a pair of mufflers , that came off of a 2003 Harley Davidson hog. They are pretty heavy, so she will probably list them on Craigslist. She also got me a really pretty pink, pearl and diamond necklace. The woman she bought it from bought it for her dog, but it was too big. So my mom bought it for $1.00! I don't want to say anything to mom, but I don't think the diamonds are real.
We met this dog named Mindy, at one yard sale. She was a mix breed. It had a Black Labs head, a Basset Hounds feet, and a Corgi's body! And some people say that 'I'm' funny looking? She was really nice though. Her owner adopted her when she was 6 months old. She was found on the NJ Turnpike, and lucky to be found alive. I guess the old owner's figured that someone would pick her up, but never stopped to realize that the chances of her getting killed were more in her favor. But by the grace of God, she was spared and given a second chance at a home where the people love her.
At another yard sale, we met Molly, a very sweet, very soft Cocker Spaniel. We had met one other time , at a dog park. She was fun to run with, and she was there when I got attacked by a Chihuahua. I got bit really hard on my back, and it almost pierced through my skin. My mom was upset and told the owners that the dog did not belong there with this type of aggression. SO, they left. But mom said that she is never taking me back there again. It's OK. I wont miss it. All I ever did there was break up fights anyway. It was exhausting!
But it WAS nice to see Molly again. I met her mom, and she really liked me. Molly was at the dog park with her Dad. He was really nice, and was concerned about the bite I got too. He was happy to see me today, and was happy the bite marks left no scar's.
After 2 hours, we decided to give up on the search for our treasures and take a nice long walk at the park. There were allot of soccer games going on, but not many people walking. But we did meet up with 'Hero', a 5 year old Shitzu mix. His dad was taking him for his first walk. Well, his first walk since they adopted him, at the ASPCA yesterday. He seemed like a nice dog, and his dad looked so proud to walk him. I think he will be happy at his new home.
I'm tired now, so I will probably sleep the rest of the afternoon. Tomorrow looks like it's going to be nice. Mom say's we will go on our bike ride for sure! I can't wait:)
