My dad sent me an article about “best friend investments”. It wasn’t talking about human relationships. The article was literally about investing in pet related stocks. They gave a numerical figure, “in the US pet products are a $95.7 billion dollars industry.” I didn’t find that shocking. All I have to do is look around my house to comprehend that figure. However my favorite line was; “pets are making the transition from luxuries to necessities.” I don’t know if I…
The clock is reading 6:34am. I have already cleared both puppy areas, cleaned pooper scooper, fed both dogs (twice because I knocked over Minx’s bowl to which Zoey consumed more than a fair share) and started a load of laundry. This morning it was Zoey who was awake before Minx. When she woke Minx she wanted to play. Try to stop a French bulldog and a puppy from playing. Very unlike my Zoey yet there she was sprite as a…
So little Minx is doing great. He has, however, received a new nickname of demon because of his teething on anything flesh. Those little teeth hurt especially when he gets you under the arm. I’ve been doing a yelp, line he does,hoping he gets the idea of ouch. With a million teething toys on the floor, he still prefers the skin of my daughter and myself above them all. Other than that, I’m a little sleep deprived. I can’t even…
Many, many years ago I went to London on my spring break vacation during college. I’m sorry for all those who did the Florida mayhem, my trip was so much better. I was 18 years old, my sister was probably 21. She was studying abroad and spent months seeing much of Europe during that year. For me, this was my first trip abroad and London was my only destination but to this day, it is still my favorite city and…

I made a decision last week to go back to eating more plant based/vegan. It has nothing to do with diet in a losing weight idea. I think I’ve given up on that concept because nothing works for me anymore. I need to accept my body for where it is today. I canceled my weight watchers membership. I’ve noticed over time myl eating has changed to incorporate a lot of processed foods again. Things that were easy points on weight…
So this wonderful amazing little puppy Minx, Minx is super puppy kept me up all night last night. He was crying all night long. He was even crying as he slept. I did a bad thing, at 4:30 I just couldn’t take it anymore and I let him sleep in the bed with Zoey and I. He has so few accidents, isn’t that why he is in the crate to begin with? Just like his crate, there was not a…
This puppy is definitely the best puppy ever. He knows the wee wee pad and uses it by himself even when he’s playing. I wrote to my breeder, obviously amazed, she explained that they don’t “demand” the use but they try to introduce it with all their puppies. This little thing got the instructions and is already on point. He is 8 1/2 weeks old. He is even sleeping great. I took him to the pad at 2:30am and then…
This was so excited. This little nugget. He was giving kisses the second we took him in our arms. He is just this tiny mush ball. He hadn’t gone to the bathroom since he boarded the plane over 3 hours before. Thought for sure he’d pee on my daughter. He didn’t. We made a stop to visit family and he pooped outside. He’s 8 weeks. That’s impressive. When we got home I showed him the wee wee, and Minx did…
I had no idea. No wonder I couldn’t sit in my wheelchair for any length of time, it had no functions other than to move forward and back. This new chair is high tech. I could literally adjust it so I am completely laying down. In a wheelchair!!!! There is just no comparison. I went from this To this: I even have neat lights in the front and the back so people could see me at night. I can lift…
