The Hepaticas are Starting to Bloom

Word of the Day

Stopengawker - A motorist who slows down to watch the curious event causing a traffic jam, thus adding to the problem.

I bought some canned pumpkin to give to Kylee. Other than forcing me to get up and take her outside a couple of times at night, she seems perfectly healthy...the little stinker. Unfortunately, she's just like a baby, everything has to be put in her mouth and tasted. Hopefully, the pumpkin will help solidify her...puppy poops. I'm told that it's a perfectly safe and natural solution to the problem. I don't want to resort to OTC drugs. Meanwhile, obedience training has been put on hold while my patience isn't what it should be...due to lack of sleep.

In the meantime, T-Square came over and patched Kylee's escape hole in the puppy pen. Thank you very much T-Square. He shed blood. Not Kylee...the hardware cloth he used to patch the escape hole is SHARP!!!! T-Square made sure that the sharp edges were all taken care of so Kylee won't hurt herself, but in the process, he managed to knick a few of his fingers. However, the escape hole is all gone and until Kylee can jump out of the puppy pen, she should have a hard time escaping.

For the most part, Kylee seems more than content to play quietly in her puppy pen. House-breaking continues. I sure wish she'd figure this house-breaking thing out soon so we can trust her un-penned. I'm hoping that the puppy pen will help. She had one accident in her pen...which I witnessed and could correct. Since than, she has kept her puppy pen clean. Knock on wood, that continues.

Noteworthy Quote of the Day

Eating everything you want is not that much fun. When you live a life with no boundaries, there’s less joy. If you can eat anything you want to, what’s the fun in eating anything you want to?
