Sheltie Picnic

Just because there was a chance of rain, I didn't get to go to the sheltie club picnic yesterday.  It was a nice cool day and it didn't rain after-all so I'm not happy that I had to stay at home.  The puppies got left behind too so I guess I shouldn't take it too personal.  Maybe I can go to the next party.

It just takes a little rain

Dan's puppy will likely not be going to the sheltie club picnic tomorrow.  Let me tell you why...

The day started out partially cloudy and quite warm but this afternoon a small rain storm came over the neighborhood and we all had to stay inside as the rain came pouring down.  After the rain Dan let the dogs play in the yard.  I stayed in the house as I don't like to get my feet wet and this is what I saw looking out the window...
Yes, there is nothing more great than fresh rain to make the dirt all nice and soft and Cooper took full advantage.  He does look like he is having fun!
Silly puppy, now he will just get yet another bath.

Home Alone

So, while I'm very happy that Daniel is home, I was a little upset this morning as I was home alone all morning and then again this afternoon.  I got to go to work with Allana last week and that is way more fun!  Daniel didn't even leave the T.V. on for me.  I'm just not that into the radio all that much.  I like watching my daytime TV with all the talk shows and the soap operas.  I wonder if I can figure out the remote control.  Hmmm

Sunday is the best!

Daniel is finally home!  I'm so glad he is here.  It is quite amazing that all the bugs left the house when they saw him walk in the door.  Allana should settle down now. 

Something else followed Daniel & Allana home today.  Something called Dyson and I noticed it had the word animal on it too.  Allana was quick to set it up and started hunting for the dog hair in the house (it wasn't that hard to find).  I thought the broom worked just fine, but this noisy thing sure picks up a lot of hair quickly.  I think Allana might have a new best friend.

Sunny Saturday

Today was a beautiful cool sunny day and the day started off great again.  Margaret came over and  I thought she was coming to visit me, but she was bring back the puppies!  Yes, Suri, Caiden, and Cooper all arrived back home.  It had been so peaceful without them here the last few days.  It was really nice of Margaret to babysit them, but I have to admit it would have been nice if she would have decided that she loved them soooo much that she would have just kept them.  Now there are toys all over the place again and it is hard to sleep quietly in the family room as the youngsters are running around all the time.  It is nice and cool so they can be outside, but for some reason Allana thinks she missed them so she keeps bringing them in the house.  They are totally interfering with my nap time. 

There was just one bug incident today.  I felt sorry for the bug as it had to live under a cup in the kitchen for most of the day until we had a visitor that could deal with it.  Allana really needs Dan to get home soon as I don't think I can take all the fuss over a little bug again tomorrow.

Fabulous Friday

Maybe Dan gone isn’t good for Allana and I really do miss him, but I really like going to work with Allana every day!  Today a student came by two times to see me.  He told me how his teacher said if he did his work and did it well, he could come and visit.  He is a great kid and I can tell he really liked me and I really liked him too.  I even got to help out with the morning announcements.  It was great! 

Tonight has been great too as Sita and Halo got baths and not me.  That is great too.  I stay nice and clean all the time, so I really don’t think I need baths at all.  The evening would be perfect if I could get that chew bone away from Star…..

Terrific Thursday!

I'm feeling soooo much better today.  I'm so glad!  I had a great Thursday as I got to go to school.  The kids are so wonderful and they were so happy to see me.  I think I make Allana's day a little brighter when I go to work with her.

Tonight we are all curled up on the couch as it is raining so we are relaxing and watching some of Allana's hundreds of hours of recorded T.V. she keeps stored up for rainy evenings.

Not so wonderful Wednesday

Today started out great!  Well, not great for Allana but great for me.  I got to go with Allana to the Honda Dealership and everyone loved me there.  Allana didn't seem too happy to be there though, but she paid the bill and off we went.  I thought I was going to school, but we did have a stop on the way.  It was the vet's office!  Now, everyone at the vet's office are always really nice  and they were today, but with Dan not home yet they gave me fluids.  Now when I get fluids from Dan they slowly drip in as we spend some male bonding time watching some sports event. ( I'm starting to really like college football.)  Anyways, they did it really fast.  It seemed fine at first but by lunch time, I was not feeling very well at all.  Allana tried to take me for a walk and I really didn't want to go.  I felt miserable.  I usually love going to Allana's work as it is the best place to hang out at, but not today.  Allana was pretty worried as she took me back to the vet.  I really just wanted to go home and go to bed.  Allana finally got me home and gave me some pills but I just can't get comfortable.  I really want to go to bed.   This was not a good Wednesday at all.  I hope Daniel is home tomorrow and that I feel better tomorrow.

Back Home

I got to spend a few days with Auntie Laura in Houston!  I love staying with her as I can shed all over her house and she never complains.  I got to go for lots of walks and even got to go to Sonic for lunch yesterday.  I like the city life as the restaurants are so close.  We can't even order pizza in the country!

Anyway, Allana picked me up and we stopped for a few minutes at the Mauldin's for a quick, but hot romp in the grass and then we were on our way back home.  Dan isn't here tonight.  I thought he would be back when we got home.  He must be coming in on the late night flight.

Allana is managing well today as we have not experienced any bug assaults or stalkings.

Surviving Saturday

Today's been O.K., but I don't understand why Star and I both got a bath, but only Star got to go for a car ride.  Star came back all happy as she got to go to the hospital to visit patients.  I think she just likes to brag about going as she gets extra treats.

Allana survived being attacked by a giant toad this morning.  She hadn't recovered from the gecko in the house last night or the spider in Felix, the black cat, was walking around with.  She's really got to get over this bug thing. 

Allana said Auntie Laura might come by tomorrow.  I wonder if she will take us out for ice cream?

Mom would never make it as a single parent

Dan better get home tonight as Allana is just not very good at this single parenting thing.  While in her world she got home early from work, it was way past what time Dan gets home.  I need to eat my supper at 5:30 p.m. sharp.  Now, I know I really don't like this new "special" food the vet ordered for me, but still it is about all I get around here.

I'm not sure why she gave Cooper a bath when he just had one a few days ago.  Maybe she just wanted to bath the puppy. 

I did enjoy watching the cat with a spider in its mouth chase her around the kennel.  It was really pretty funny.  She really needs Dan to come home tonight.
