A New Do for Bridget

Hi all you lovely people out there. I have a totally new hairdo and I'm so proud. Here is a before and after shot so you can see the new me. (The before comes after the after, if you know what I mean.)

I'm jealous. What did she do to deserve new hair?

Now HB, Mom has a brand spanking new sewing machine coming and then it will be new clothes for all of us.

I can hardly wait.

And I could get into this new clothes business.

Party Time Again

Here we are with more of our friends from Cristina's house. No time for chit-chat. We're having too much fun.

You said it, kid!

I know I did. So, back to the party. (Do you see the way that cute bear is looking at me? I wonder . . .)

Cool it HB!

It's really hard to maintain spiritual detachment in this household.

Just keep breathing, Bridget. Oh, sorry, I forgot, we don't breathe do we?

The New Website

Dad has been hunched over the computer every day working on graphics for our new website PowerfulPlaces.com

I hope he managed to work us into some of the pictures. How about it Dad?

Well, I'm afraid that PowerfulPlaces.com just isn't the place for fuzzy kids.

Oh, you big spoil sport! We would have fit right in. After all I'm pretty powerful.

Well, now that I'm done with the website I'll do something very special for you kids.

Oh boy, like NEW CLOTHES?

You know that Dad doesn't sew. That's Mom's department.

Well, she is busy having fun with her new machine . . . wait a minute, I'll bet she could whip up some new frock for me on her new machine. How about it Mom? Mom?

I don't think you can get her attention HB.

What does it take to get anyone's attention around here? I'll just go off in a corner and pout.

Well, you could talk with Bridget. Maybe she can communicate with Mom and tell her what you need.

Is it a philosophical issue that you need resolved?

Yes, that's it. The philosophy of getting Mom's attention.

I'm afraid that isn't in my power. I could deal with the philosophy of needing less, or the philosophy of being thankful for what you have, or . . .

Well, stuff that!

HONEY BUNNY!

I'll overlook that last remark.

Like I said, you'll get used to that around here.

A Big Party With Friends

Here we are back home and introducing Briget (Bride, Bridgit, St. Bride?) to our friends here in Girona.

Well, if you are going to talk about me all the time you might as well know how to spell my name. That is Bridget, if you don't mind.

Well, at last, we have thought you could speak all the time, but had begun to wonder.

Of course I can speak. But only of important things.

Like clothes?

Honey Bunny, every girl doesn't have your priorities.

Important philosophical concepts are my specialty.

Philo-WHO?

We need to have a serious talk, but not when we are having a party. Actually, I like all your friends, particularly the guy with the Indiana Jones hat.

He's a distant relative of mine. I like him too.

Hats remind me of what I don't have for winter--a new hat.

Oh, HB, you have a one-track mind.

Well, it is a dual track mind, but we won't go into that. (Hey there good lookin', What's you got cookin', How about . . . .)

HONEY BUNNY!

We'll overlook that last remark.

You will get used to overlooking a lot around here. Anyway, here's our friends from Cristina's house. We have such a good time talking with them.

I'm sure I'll find a kindred spirit here. I'm feeling more at home already.
