Hey, MOM, please keep the dogs in the house for a while. They're trying to "help" me weed the garden. I've gotten enough slobbery dog kisses to last me for a while.

(I tried to send this ages ago, about the same time Max posted on Facebook that he was working on bandwidth. But I'm sending it now because even though it is now past tense, next time I work on the garden, you might again be helpful by keeping the dogs in the house.)
