Our puppy is wearing me out

May 9, 2008 by Tricia

My puppy is being a bit of a pest tonight.

She gets a little hyper in the evening when Chris and I are both home. She’s always running around, chewing her toy bones and dropping them loudly on the floor. Then she’ll jump up on my husband where he’s lying on the couch, then jump off and come to visit me on the other couch … just a constant ball of motion.

I wouldn’t mind so much if she got this hyper some time during the day, but it’s really distracting when you’re trying to watch TV. We have to keep turning the volume up because the sound of her toy bones dropping on the hardwood floor or bumping into things is so loud. Oh we tell her to go and lie on her bed when she’s playing with her toy bones, but she only stays there for a while.

I think I’ll be glad when she starts to calm down a bit more. Don’t get me wrong I love her puppy attitude, but it is tiring!

Need inspiration for celebrity blogging

May 6, 2008 by Tricia

You know, I’ve got a celebrity related blog, but I haven’t written in it much lately.

Oh there’s lots of celebrity news that I could be reporting, but I think when just about all the young stars and their dogs were in drug rehab I just felt “What’s the point” in regards to writing about it.

Even though I haven’t written in that blog much this year at all it’s still quite popular. It gets a lot of hits every day. I really should get it going again. I guess I’ll have to try to find some inspiration and hope that the young stars stay out of trouble.

Finally got a little bit of sleep

May 1, 2008 by Tricia

I can’t believe I’m still going. I think I’m like the energizer bunny. Honestly … I’ve only had about three hours sleep in the last 24 hours and haven’t averaged much more than that over the last week per day.

I did manage to sleep for two hours early this evening. That was only after I took Midnight out for a long walk. She needed the exercise and I needed to make myself tired.

There are some great walking and biking trails in our area so we headed for one of our favorites. We even strayed off the trail into an area being developed for commercial real estate. All in all I think we did a five mile walk.

I’m due for a seriously good sleep tonight, let me tell ya!

Cat n’ Mouse

April 30, 2008 by Tricia

Wordless Wednesday

Get a load of the look on this cats face? Does it look peeved to you? I think someone must have disturbed the little fella while he was playing on the computer …. with the mouse of course.

Actually there’s a paper that says Iams stuck to the front of the computer. Perhaps the cat is peeved because he’s hungry?

Things to do with our dog this summer?

April 27, 2008 by Tricia

Chris and I are excited about having our puppy around and the fact that we’ll more than likely be outside doing more interesting activities this year as a result.

We’ve even gone so far as to brainstorm regarding all the different places we can take our dog and what interesting things we can do with her. I’ve mentioned many times that I’ve enjoyed just getting out each day to take her for a walk, but we can do so much more.

For example we love taking her to the park and watching her run around on her long leash. We aren’t comfortable with her going leashless yet although she’s fairly responsive when we call her to come to us. We’ve also taken her to a few of our Toronto beaches already. I’m sure she’ll really enjoy that in the heat of the summer when she can take a nice dip in the cool waters of Lake Ontario to cool off.

Lately I’ve been considering getting skate shoes. She loves her walks, but if I get skate shoes I could go even farther with her without over tiring myself.

I think she’s still a little too young and not obedient enough to tag along beside our bikes if we went riding … plus they say you really shouldn’t take young dogs running for any major distances until they are about two years old as they can hurt themselves more easily.

Anyone have any great suggestions as to what else we can do with our dog this summer?

BTW we’re enjoying a feast today thanks to our neighbors and the fact that they are celebrating Greek Orthodox Easter. Take a look at the delicacies they gave us! Yummmmm!
