Beauty is Fleeting

I decided to change my image for the New Year.  I’m going with permanent blue eyebrows. 

Do you like them?  Well sorry.  I lied!

Those are not my new eyebrows.  I had a little growth above my eye.  It wasn’t very pretty at all.  And it kept getting bigger.  Mom took me to the vet and she said not to worry about it too much.  She thought it was something kind of normal and would just fall off by itself.

Well it didn’t just fall off.  At least not soon enough.  All of our friends and neighbors made comments about my big ugly growth.  Pretty soon, Mom was getting embarrassed about it.  I told her I didn’t care, but she apparently did.

So back to the vet we went to get it off.  And the blue eyebrows is what I came back with.  The vet said I had to wear one of those nasty e-collars for 10 days.  But Mom said if I promised not to rub the eye, then I wouldn’t have to wear it.  So I was good.  But I’m always good, you know that!  

So after that the neighbors made comments about my blue eyebrows.  You can’t win with the neighbors.  They just worry about me all the time.  I guess that’s good.  Now I’m back to my normal eyes.  I think the blue eyebrows were kinda pretty.  And speaking of kinda pretty. 

Last year, Mom had my portrait done from her favorite picture of me.  She finally finally finally got it framed.  Now it greets our visitors just as soon as they open our front door.  It also sits right above our ceramic chocolate labrador.  (Mom always said it looks like all my brothers!)  Here it is.  

Pretty cool, huh?!  

Anyway, Mom says, I’m still my old beautiful self, even without my blue eyebrows!  And I agree!

Hope you think you’re beautiful, too.  Cuz I do!

Love, G
