Once upon a time I had a nice yellow squeaky ball. I played with it so much that the squeaker went kerplunk and so I liked pulling off the furs.
Look Mom...No furs!! Isn't that cool? She thought that she should throw it away but I said NO, its not ready yet.
A couple days later she found the ball in this shape. She said Oreo...this ball is done!!
She walked off and left it on the island with the tips hanging over just a tad. I studied and thought Yep, I can do this!! This ball is NOT going in the trash can if I have anything to say about it.
Now....that's what I'm talking about!! NEVER under estimate a determined Scottie. I felt like Air bud!! BOL
Update: My mom is in Colorado and I'm doing ok, I'm still alive. But moms Mom was glad to see her. She's not in the greatest shape but her mind is still alert. Grandma cries a lot and makes mom cry. It's hard to know how much longer she will be with us, its all in God's hand. Mom was glad that she went and will be coming home Monday night. It's all an emotional time for all. I'll be so happy when she gets back home.
Oreo you and I do exactly the same thing to those balls. Probably a Kong ~ that is the only toy that I take apart. I loves the fur.

It's better that it is a parent. It's not as devastating as one of your children. Oreo, don't be documenting what you've been doing while she's away-it might come back to haunt you. Get better, grandma.
ReplyDeleteIf you need more tennis balls, let us know, Oreo. We have plenty to share!
ReplyDeleteHuge hugs to your mom and to your grandma♥
Love ya lots♥

It is hard to throw away a toy you love - I had a blue moose that ended up missing all it's legs and mom had to repair its body with a sock - until one day there was just no longer any more repairs to be done. We are sending good wishes to your Mom's mom.
ReplyDeleteWell done! Peeps have no idea when toys are actually used up. We have the yellow furs around for ages when we get a tennis ball...way after the rubbery part is gone.
ReplyDeleteBOL, dat toy's still got life in it. Well, maybe not, but it shouldn't be thrown aways yet!
ReplyDeleteWe are so sorry your mom is dealing with this difficult time. Life can be so hard.
ReplyDeleteExcellent ball saving!
The ball isn't done until you say it is done. I will keep your mom and her mom in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteAroo to you,

Oreo, that is most impressive work with your tennis ball. How you have to turn your attention to comforting Mom when she arrives home, as we think she will be tired and upset.
ReplyDeleteAll the best,

ReplyDeleteWell, I don't know what they were thinking, that is one PAWFECTLY GOOD ball!!

We were thinking of you and your mom today. We bet you will be very happy when she comes home and given a choice you'd rather have your mom than that ball! Nice high jump action!
