Just got back from walking the dogs and my husband and Daisy almost got run over by a kid zooming along on a motorized scooter -- looking BACK over his shoulder! Thank God my husband put his arm out to stop it. Daisy got a little tap and yelped, but I think she's OK, but terrified. After all the commotion, some slightly less than desirable neighbors came out and started screaming at us, saying "Oh, the poor kid!" What????

When everyone recovered we continued the walk and I got hit with a soft ball. I looked up and the kids were having a game in the street -- they completely blocked it off from traffic with cones and Kids At Play signs! Does anyone remember when "Go play in the street" was a terrible thing to say? Might I mention that there are two huge parks just a couple of blocks away?

OK. Done cranking. But don't mess with my Daisy!
