Experiments in Life Because Sometimes Science Screws Up!

When I woke up this morning…

it was thundering. I knew we were in trouble. She didn't even come to get me out of bed, I had to get up all on my own. Shortly thereafter, the puppy attachment was in place.

Benadryl was adminstered via peanut butter. It went a lot easier than normal. Either she's not fighting as much, or I'm getting better at this. We've had to drug her way too much if it's getting easier to do.

In the background (Dante): PEANUT BUTTER!!!!!! I want some peanut butter, Mommy! Gimme peanut butter! Can't she see me here? My tail is gonna fall off if she doesn't give me some peanut butter soon. OOOh, look, the spoon covered in peanut butter goodness is coming my way. Oooohhhh, yummy. I love peanut butter!!!

This is my life :) Sometimes I don't know whether to laugh or cry ;)

Smoofish strikes again!

Smoofish phrase for the day:

Marble Cream Slabbery

Better known as the Marble Slab Creamery to those of you who do not speak Smoofish.

The reply to this phrase given by my husband:
"That's okay. I knew what you meant. I do smeak Spoofish." I've trained him well, his Smoofish is coming along quite nicely :)

Also, a great sandwich shop has moved into the Target plaza, it's called Fireball Subs, as opposed to Firehouse Subs.

Hurray for Research!

Looks like things may be looking up for diabetics everywhere. Hopefully I can avoid having to have something like this for a long time. Here's to medical research on diabetes :D

Devices may aid diabetics' constant monitoring

Pitiful. Just pitiful.

With the weather so nasty yesterday, Rosie decided that she wanted to go to work with Ashley and I. Of course, we could not take the pups along. When we got back home, it was still raining so the dogs were cooped up in the house all day long. Today, I thought that it would be a good idea to take them out for a walk since it has been so nice out. Around 2:30pm, Ashley and I loaded up the dogs into her car and took them down to the greenway so that we could have a nice little walk someplace new, instead of just around the neighborhood.

We only managed to make it a little over half a mile before Rosie and Dante started to wear out. "Ok," we told the dogs, "we will head back to the car and take you home." Since it was such a nice day, bikers, walkers, and rollerbladers were out in full force so we had to stop every few minutes and keep the dogs at bay so that they could get by. On the way back, we still had to stop every few minutes to let people by, but the pups took that opportunity to lie down in the grass, panting the whole time. When we finally made it back to the house, the dogs crashed for a couple of hours on the tile. I think we are going to have to walk more around the neighborhood to get the dogs back into shape so that we can take these longer walks in the future.
