    Only Jamie can make scrubbing look so relaxing! One foot stretching out on the caging (Jamie’s sitting one leg raised yoga pose) while her hands do the scrubbing. I also like knowing Burrito spotted the mop first. That gets 10 points for being a good sidekick!

    Oh, James!
    Poor Bubba looks so broken-hearted when she took away his discovery! Did you get the mop handle back in one piece, JB?

    Fasinating that Jaimie knew how to clean and funny that they were both so excited at finding the contraband, Oh yes and very impressed she knew to wring out the cloth. Thank you for taking the time to make and share these blogs.

    I am new to this as I have been so concerned about George. I lobe gettimg the daily posts and I am so amazed how smart and intuitive they are, which also saddens me to know they were all abused in some form and fashion. I am so thankful for such a beautiful sanctuary that offers them peace, love, hope, dignity, and yummy food!!
    thank you and kudos to each and every one of you!

    That’s so Jamie! You know when she’s got her foot up, she’s really focused! At least you know the mop will get back to you nice and clean!

    PLEASE TELL US WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE MOP. DID YOU GET IT BACK IN ONE PIECE, MINUS THE SPONGEY PART? AND DID YOU THINK ABOUT LEAVING 2 MOPS TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS? DON’T WORRY, WE’LL SUPPLY THE MOPS/MOP HEADS!
