My Dogs are Mooing

Bad news sports fans...one of my favorite neighbors (the one who asked me to check for monsters under her bed) has moved out:(  I don't normally like using emoticons, but this is a special occasion -- I'm not sure how else to truly represent my utter sadness and disappointment at this latest development. To my former neighbor -- you were a great source of entertainment and ridicule.  Rest assured, you will be missed.  Good luck in your future encounters with your neighbors.
