Doggie love

Yesterday was a pretty good day…the dogs & I did the big walk, and I ate OP until we had a pizza last night. I had 3 pieces and a glass of wine. Since it was a medium pizza, the slices were smaller than they would be if it were a large pizza. Does that sound like I’m rationalizing? lol.

Today we’re going on the big walk again. I call it the big walk, because it takes about 50 minutes and no matter how cold it is, I'm always sweating by the time we finish. The last 8 minutes is straight uphill and my pulse gets to the 180's on my HRM, so you know it's a pretty fiendish hill. This particular walk is the only way I can get any true cardio exercise with 3 dogs in tow.

Today is our last full day together, as their mom will back from vacation tonight and will be coming to pick them up tomorrow about 9:30 a.m. I keep telling hubby we need to get pictures of all 3 dogs together. Hubby is the master of the camera, and I honestly don’t even know where it is or how to use it.

I believe that Buster will be very glad when they go home. His nose has been a bit out of joint since they got here. He’s used to being an only dog. When I come home from work, of course I am inundated with doggie love, but during those first moments, I try to single B out for extra special attention. I don’t know if that’s the way you’re supposed to treat “the pack” but he IS my boy, and I think he needs it.

I’ve really bonded with the one named Kermit. He is the more timid of the two visitors, and likes to lie on the couch next to me (which pisses Buster off). Kermie has a very soulful face and likes to sleep on his back, which is totally cute. The other dog Olive is very sweet too, but she is a bit more demanding and so far hasn’t shown any particular interest in getting too close to me. I think she misses her own mom.

Well, we’re off for our walk. I’ll try to post again later today.
