Canon Printer and Stubby the Dog

My Canon i9900 printer sure gets a lot of use. One way that I can tell is by the rather frequent "needs ink" notices that I get. It has six separate cartridges, so at least one of the cartridges seems to be running low most all of the time. However, today I printed several pictures that I'm using for a frame that I purchased for the master bedroom, and I finished all of them without having to replace a cartridge. I believe that is a first. The pictures are of various vases and the 4 by 6 prints fit nicely in the frame that I bought at Kohls a few weeks ago.

I found another interesting Westend picture while rummaging through my box of old photos. It's of me and my dog Stubby. I remember from this picture that one - or maybe both - of us were a bit hung over from the previous night's outing, and I have to admit that the picture reflects that condition. Stubby was the dog that I got while I was in the Philippines and we sent him to live with my parents, in Louisville, when I finished my Air Force service and moved to California. Having a dog wasn't an option for us at the time, so my parents agreed to take Stubby. He was a good and loving dog and both my parents took excellent care of him. He lived to be about fifteen years old. They never got another dog after his passing. They didn't think that they could find one as gentle and fun to be with as Stubby. The picture is at the bottom of the blog page.
