Takers?
Does anyone want our dogs? Or know anyone who might? The cats are available, too. But mainly, the dogs. I’m sort of serious – if we can find an appropriate environment for them, it would be better for all involved. They love tennis balls, rawhides, playing fetch, and long walks and runs. They can sit, [...]

Here’s to insomnia
Zoe is sleeping and has been for some time, yet I am wide awake – I never went back to sleep after her 3 AM feeding. I also only slept one of the three hours she took a nap yesterday, but my eyes were burning the whole time. What is wrong with this picture? New [...]

Dog birthday
Today we celebrated Sarge’s and Chief’s birthdays. We’re pretty sure Sarge was born exactly a year ago today, but Chief’s is a tossup, since he was a shelter puppy. So we’re calling him five years old today. They’re mostly good dogs, and I’m happy to have them. For their special day they got a trip [...]

Where will Zoe go?
02.03.07 | Permalink | 5 CommentsFinding a comfortable sleeping position these last few weeks has been a challenge, but I have had some success with a combination of extra pillows, a husband, and pets; I consider the following to be optimal: Chief is back support, Joel aligns the hips, and pillow supports the belly. Sarge doesn’t do much for structure, [...]

Spin the big wheel… big surprise – today it lands on baby and pets!
01.28.07 | Permalink | 2 CommentsThough my lower back pain has reached an all-time high, I can remove one thing from my list of anxieties: Sarge around children. Yesterday we had our friends’ 10-month-old little girl at our house crawling on the [freshly steam-cleaned ] floors, and Sarge got flat on the floor and crawled with her. It was adorable. [...]

All day inside
I spent the day editing and creating things for this site, so take a look at the sidebar for new pet pages, if you’re interested.

Canceled (or cancelled, if you prefer)
No doctor appointment for me or work for the hubby today due to icy roads. Hooray! While I was looking forward to hearing Zoe’s heart beat and finding out if she has gotten into a more deliverable position, I’m pretty happy to delay that nasty test and to have Joel home for another day. We [...]

Holiday fun
Our trip to Garland was a really good time. We saw family and a few friends and kept it pretty low key, which is exactly what I wanted. The dogs behaved themselves for the most part – perhaps it was because they were given jobs: Now that we’re back, it’s all about getting the house [...]

Interviews!
Perhaps due to a combination of great directions from friends and a bit of serendipity, I did not get lost at all while in Houston. As people who know me may recall, and much to the embarrassment of my husband, I am borderline retarded when it comes to reading a map. Well, actually I can [...]
