I have a very difficult decision to make. I must choose between my hubby of 20 years, or my three sweet small pups. I am so torn. One should never have to choose, but I think I must. So here is the situation. We have this bench at the end of the bed. We have had it there for at least ten years, maybe more. I would say that at least four days a week poor hubby jams his toe on it getting ready for bed. He wants the bench gone. Possibly set on fire as well. BUT… the pups use the bench to get on and off the bed. I moved it the other day and watched as three pups ran down the hall at full speed, and instead of jumping on the bench then onto the bed, they splatted on the hard wood foot-board. They just ran right into it.  SPLAT! THUD! They shook it off and left. But a few minutes later they did it again. SPLAT! THUD! What a horrible noise. The bed is so high up they can’t make it up there without the bench. I’m so sorry hubby. I choose pups in the bed playing and snuggling. This might be a job for a few strategically placed pool noodles. Bright pink!

Genre: Science Fiction

We hide in shadows. Our planet is lost. We are the last humans, and we must go home.

Two thousand years ago, aliens destroyed Earth. Our fleets shattered. Billions died. The last humans fled a burning planet, heading to the stars.

Today we are still refugees. Hungry. Afraid. Our enemies hunt us everywhere.

So we hide. On distant asteroids. In rundown space stations. In deep caves on frozen worlds. And we dream.

Of green hills. Blue skies. Golden fields. We dream of Earth.

And for the first time, we have hope.

A few of us, just a handful of brave souls, form the Heirs of Earth. We are humans who stand tall. Who fight back. Aliens call us terrorists. The humans we save call us heroes. We have starships, weapons, and warriors. We can bring humanity home.

Earth is far. We have not seen her in many generations. But we have not forgotten. Earth is our heritage. Earth is our birthright. We will return!
