So in the last entry I mentioned to you that Kellie's band had been selected to perform at the inaugaration in Washington, D.C. next month. Well last night Kim got the good news that she's been selected as a chaperone! So the Bowdren family is going to be very well represented at this historic event. I told Kim that the most important thing to remember was----don't drink a lot of water..since there are probably NOT going to be a lot of bathrooms there. Ya gotta keep things in perspective folks.
They've also been mentioned pretty prominently in the local newspapers. Today they made the front page of the Miami Herald!!! Check it out here:

Last night, I took Beezer to the vet. He has a lot of the "fatty tumors"--which are essentially these sort of nasty looking bumps all over his body that aside from looking nasty, are pretty much harmless. Well, one of them appeared to be growing, so we took him in for a checkup while holding our breath and crossing our fingers. Besides the fact that its Christmas time and we can't really afford some dog surgery of any kind....Midnight had surgery on a similar problem over the Christmas vacation about 5 years ago....and the stress alone aged me a couple of years.
Thankfully he hasn't had any reoccurence but it was on my mind when we took Beezer in.
The doc gave him a thorough check up and then did a needle biopsy on the tumor.
The news came out a few minutes later---
Its just a fatty tumor. The doctor told me that they can get pretty big, but there was nothing else to worry about. Beezer got a ride in the car and a lot of extra attention for his trouble---and I got a big load off of my mind. He is my "sweet prince" ya know.
Later,
Jeff
