Well dear readers, Lefty the Hamster is missing again.  Emboldened by a taste of freedom and family heirlooms, he is once again on the prowl.

I have alerted our cat Amy and offered her a reward.

Am I searching frantically? Am I methodically going through the house room by room? Of course not.

What I am doing is stacking all my wool sweaters  in a tower on top of my husband's dresser. I have my priorites people. Saving this hamster's furry ass is not one of them.  I am leaving the hamster's fate to karma and Big Lou.

It's sunny today. A good day for digging in the yard, if I do say so myself.

Stay tuned.
