Yes!  My readers have spoken – all eleven of you – and I must answer your call.  There has been a mandate!

(although I must admit, the ever wise Sharon nailed it on the head and I am just glad to be able to give the appearance of a democracy. Had the vote not gone my way, I would have had to declare myself the supreme monarch of my little kingdom and heads may have been rolling — thankfully, bloodshed was avoided)

I have the pleasure of presenting our little Edgar Allen Poe – daughter #2 named him in honor of his coloring and her favorite poem …. we shall call him Poe.

It’s a good thing I’m not in charge of polling for anything important!  I believe I have fixed whatever was wrong with the pug poll, but have now turned my page background gray.  Can’t figure that one out!

Go vote people! practically nothing hangs in the balance!

before I begin, please turn your attention here.  gaze upon his beauty and then come back to purlingswine. 

So here’s what I’m thinking …..

• I already have four dogs, but at one point I did have five dogs. 
• I’m in the mood for a puppy, but it would be lunacy to bring yet another tail wagger through the door. 
• However, a little puppy would be so cute and such fun and not such a big deal.
• My carpet already looks like hell, so why not?
• Maybe I should just buy a load of socks, underwear & flannel pj’s and call it Christmas

what say you, my wise, discerning, yet somewhat wacky readers?
