Been doing some detective work with who stole my money. I realized I left my debit card at Petco last Thursday and when I called them on Friday they had it in their safe. Called the state police and they told me to handle it on my own and if the people at Petco don't cooperate to call them back and they'll handle it. Went and got everyone's name and phone numbers that worked that night, called the coffee pot makers, Keurig, and they said they don't have any information for me. Tonight at 6:00PM I filed a police report with the Township cops (because when I called the state police back they told me I never called them ) and so far that cop has called me two times in the last 2 hours asking questions and telling me everything he's done. He also seems to think it was the cashier at Petco that made the purchase. He's calling Keurig again tomorrow to talk to their security department before going to Petco and watching surveillance videos/interviewing the cashier/manager that worked that night.

Makes me feel better that he started working on it so quickly.

I had to remind myself that the new puppy likes to pick up and chew on stuff.....

I was showing the boy how to check the tires for proper inflation......did the usual....put the valve stem cap on the tire......the boy goes to check the tires he put the valve stem caps on the floor and leaves each one and moves to the next wheel.......he gets around the car and says 'dad it ain't funny give them back!' I said. 'What?'....he exclaims 'the valve stem caps!'....all the sudden the compressor stops and we hear 'crunch crunch crunch' the puppy was enjoying her new toys.....

Hard to get upset with them, too. They are cute. It's not just puppies, Maggie still does it if I don't catch her. I think it's a game she plays to see if she can get my stuff. I don't lay anything critical down.

Anything like bolts nuts washers sockets hex bits....get put up now.....the funniest is watching her to try and get something from the magnetic tray......she gives up and takes the whole thing when its on the ground....

If I drop a rag or a glove, I have to chase her before Maggie will give it back. If I set an empty water bottle down, that is an invitation to a game of keepaway. When I rake up a pile of leaves, she waits till I start trying to bag them and she dives in, pulling out any sticks she can get ahold of. She will have me laughing so much that I can't get mad at her. People that don't have active dogs really have no idea how much fun they can be.
