Where did this come from?

I don't believe this. Let the dogs out to potty in the backyard. Stand outside on the patio, trying to keep the cats from escaping out the back door. Rufus returns, and I let him inside. After a minute, call Anna back inside. She likes to eat dropped food from the bird feeder like the piggy she is. Walk back inside and manage to keep the cats inside. Rosie, ready to escape out the door, takes interest in a garter snake that suddenly appeared behind the door. I failed to notice a snake in either dog's mouth. Where did it come from? Its head moves as Rosie paws at it. It's alive. Grab the broom and brush it outside onto the patio. Little black garter snake with yellow stripes and a gray underbelly. It started to slither as I moved it with the broom. Now my wood floor has snake slime on it where it was. Complete mystery which dog brought it in. Cats never made it outside, who normally bring these things inside.

Looking for the Cat

Both dogs and Goldie came inside from the yard. Saw Rosie come inside, but I was unsure if she went back out into the yard or still inside. Searched all over and finally found her in the tree outside. Waited and eventually she came to the door squeaking like a mouse. All babies inside now.

New phone

As if I was not spending enough money, I have to buy I new cell phone. I unfortunently got the fabulous Sidekick phone because at the time of purchase I did not have internet access. It cost a lot of money, sure good things do, but I expected it to last a whie at that price. Of course, I lost the 1st phone last year and had to buy a new one which cost more than what I originally paid for it (I never did find it). So, a year goes by to have the battery go kaput and can't hold any level of power leaving me to recharge it constantly. Also, this battery is sealed in the phone so I can not just go out of buy a new one. At the end of my rope, I complain in an email from my computer. Since the warranty expired, I have to buy a new one. Well, I told the operator, if I have to buy a new phone every year then I want the cheapest one you got. He agreed with my logic. Then, changing phones causes me to lose the unlimited Sidekick internet access. Losing the internet access also caused the eras...
