Annie, excellent job on moving to the 2 mile WATP. Looks like you’re starting your exercise track the same way I did. And what excellent news that the comfy cone is what it looked like. I have every intention of getting one the next time my pups need one. I’m glad Tootsie is happier. Welcome to the 17X’s!!!
Kitteh, I like the idea of dried fruit in my office for the office munchies. I’m going to look into that. And almonds.
Becky, that light at the end of the tunnel is just an oncoming train. Life doesn’t slow down. And it is great news the new school is going well.
Petra, WTG on the pilates class.
Newleaf, The only time I’ve spilled a mocha in a vehicle was when I was in a 19 vehicle accident 2.5 years ago. It flew from the cup holder so the BMW did great yesterday. Not a drop. I fell in love the heated seats and asked my co-worker if anyone made after-market seat heaters. He said that they did and they were about 180 for two. I googled it and found it. DH has been informed that my expectation is they are my mother’s day present. I did point out that perhaps our constant battle about vehicle temp will go away when I can have a warm seat. He liked that since he likes cold vehicles. And I like the ah-ha about having to re-lose it again. I’m going to keep that nugget.
Cruise, I am so sorry for your stress. Sending your way.
Blizzard had a good check-up at the vet yesterday. She’s our weightloss maintainer doggie. She’s maintained her loss (she did lose her 1 pound holiday pound). Her hips are doing well and I realized that she’s now at nearly twice her life expectancy when she was diagnosed with all her hip problems. We were told we’d be lucky if she made 5 years old. She’s 9.5 years old and yesterday jumped on our bed for the first time in years. I was drying my hair and looked into the bedroom and there she was. It was so awesome. She is my soul-dog so every day is precious. She’s healthier than she’d been for the last few years. I have so much hope that she could live until just plain old age takes her.
