femmocrat's JournalI know.... I can't stop thinking about her.
I hope she finds a wonderful home. I have been looking at the adoption sites for a Golden near us (since seeing her).
I would take her.
If I were in SoCal. She is a lovely girl and deserves so much better.

Katie McGinty is considering a run for the Senate.
http://triblive.com/news/adminpage/8729320-74/wolf-budget-mcginty#axzz3fsLjWBRWTwo weeks into a state budget impasse and six months into his first term, Gov. Tom Wolf faces the prospect of losing his chief of staff Katie McGinty to a U.S. Senate bid.
Wolf, a Democrat, confirmed during a visit Monday to Ross Elementary School that McGinty, a one-time gubernatorial primary foe, is weighing whether to seek the Democratic nomination to challenge U.S. Sen. Pat Toomey next year.
(snip)
Mike Mikus, spokesman for McGinty during her last campaign, said she attended a Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee function at Martha's Vineyard this weekend. She will make a decision soon, Mikus said.
Already seeking the nomination is Joe Sestak, a former congressman who lost an open Senate seat to Toomey in 2010. Spokeswoman Danielle Lynch said anybody who wants to get in should get in.

Google Doodle Brings Out Lawn Chairs to Celebrate 4th of July
Dan Stewart @thatdanstewart 8:34 AM ET
Inspired by memories of Independence Days past
Google has brought out a set of lawn chairs and a couple of pets for its doodle celebrating Independence Day.
The artist, San Francisco-based Brian Kaas, explained the illustration was inspired by his own memories of July 4 block parties. I spent a lot of my summers sitting on a lawn chair with my neighbors, friends and family, he said. When we would get up, the neighborhood pets would often steal our seats.
