I have recently become aware of just how many of you read my ramblings! Thank you! Sorry if I worried anyone with my boo hooing. I really am all right, just frustrated with my body and brain. I am feeling better, the shakiness is starting to go away, and I’m feeling clear headed.
Duke is growing like a weed. He is skinny again, he seems to grow the way my kids did. They would start to put on a little weight then shoot up like a bean pole. Duke is going to be a big boy. He is doing well with his training. We play fetch most everyday, and he likes to play keep away with the Frisbie, instead of bringing it back to me. He might get it one day, but for now he is having too much fun making me run after him. I’ve been taking him out with me when I can so he gets socialized, and learns to not react to other dogs. He does well in public for a five month old, but not as well as I would like. He has the commands, stay, get it, bring it, drop it, leave it, down. We are still working on sit, laydown and No! LOL!
George and our neighbor, David, put up a fence in the backyard so Duke can run without worry of him getting out and getting hurt. It’s not the prettiest fence but it does the job, and I am so thankful to have it. I hate the cold, and now I can just let him out in the morning without having to go with him.
Speaking of the cold, I have no idea what I am going to do when it actually gets cold. I bundle up in my coat, hat gloves and take a blanket with me every time I go out. The other day I came in tearing off my coat and boots like a wild woman because I was having a hot flash One minute I feel like my insides are on frozen, and the next, on fire. LOL! I can’t win when it comes to my body.
George started a new job today. It’s going to be weird, he being gone. I’ve gotten used to him being home. I told him I was going to have empty nest syndrome all over. He said I’m sure the paycheck will make it go away. He’s probably right about that. It’s been a rough few months.
I had a good time raking up the credit card bill on Saturday. I started at the winter bazaar and then ended the spree at KD’s Salon and Floral in Lawrence. I got the softest most comfortable sweatshirt I have ever had, a cool coffee cup that I didn’t need and finished up a little Christmas shopping. Every time I think I am done gift shopping, I change my mind. X’s & O’s.
