Evening all,
I saw about 500 children today. I really enjoyed the beer I had after work. Wow, those of you who work with kids all day really have my respect. Many of them were polite and nice, but a few were just rude little... ahem. I worked late, but bc I knew that I went into work late this AM. I actually took a little jog with Emma before work and it didn't feel too bad. I need to jog more! Challenging myself is good. I've got plans to go scalloping tomorrow and am hoping to go Sunday too! I bought some veggies to make scallop ceviche. Mmm. And healthy, too.
Ok, just one more funny dog story... tonight Emma got to play with my coworker's dog Sophie. Sophie's mouth was open and her tongue hanging out a little bit. Emma walked up to her and started licking Sophie's tongue. She did it repeatedly. And then Sophie started doing it back. It was so funny, we were all rolling! The closest human description I can come up with is a French kiss. I've never seen dogs do anything like that before. I tried to get it on video on my camera but of course they wanted to know what my camera was, and then didn't keep doing it.
Jessica, I've had similar thoughts when dogsitting. It's irritating that a dog isn't trained, but how much time do you want to spend to train them when their owner's ideas are obviously different than your own? I'm sure it will be fine though! It's nice you and your family can dog sit for each other. Sorry Carter's foot got scraped again. Poor guy just can't catch a break.
Shannon, I hope you get some sleep and that DSS behaves this weekend.
Jen, it's amazing how one's body can react to any substance it's not used to ingesting in large quantities. I have trouble when I go to Italian restaurants (a rare occurrence) bc of how much oil is used... it's not pretty!
Saef, as you said it must be nice to have a time frame in your head after this uncertainty. 6 months! You can hang in there! Glad you're keeping in touch w your therapist, too.
Dagmar, I'm glad you like this therapist and they're willing to work with you about the cost. It must be nice to have someone to air out your feelings.
Michele, hang in there! I hope you get some sleep.
Neurodoc, at least you won't have to deal with more bat mitzvah stress for a while. Congratulations to your family for the event!
Have a good weekend all.
