FAMILY NEWS: PUPPIES AGAIN

Here, Mamadog's puppies are eating, and usually here they are given away at this point. 

Usually I try to keep them a few weeks and get them baby shots and dewormed first, but maybe not: I am not up to doing this right now, so their new owners will be advised they need the shots.

But now,  Mamadog's oldest puppie, Blackie, just had two puppies behind my easy chair in the bedroom. 

We knew she was pregnant but she was not very big, but then  I heard puppy cries. Two puppies, one tan and one brown. I wonder who is the dad, since Blackie is black and her mom is white. But the dogs do sneak out the garage door late at night to go courting.

In the meanwhile, I have the stomach flu. Joy stayed with me last night until I stopped vomiting but I still feel lousy. 

 the US election seems to be crazier than normal: and no I didn't vote.

The mail is so slow that in the past my vote never arrived in time (regular mail takes about a month to get to our rural area from the USA), so I just figured never mind. 

There are geopolitical aspects to who wins the election for those of us in the Philippines: the worry is that China will go nuts and invade Taiwan and the Philippines will be caught up in that fight. 

However StrategyPage seems to say probably not: corruption has made them weak. 

If Trumpieboy gets in, he's so crazy no one will want to test him. If Harris gets in, she is weak: but as the Instaprofessor notes, it will just mean the deep state who is running the US for a popular but senile Biden will decide what to do. sigh.
