K9 Kamp 2012!!

by Jules on May 18, 2012

I am excited about participating in Kol’s K9 Kamp! I have been working on my kitchen for over a month and my exercise regimen has been truly suffering.

Cali has had some issues of her own, and I’m sure she would enjoy some play time

I laughed when I read Jodi’s post about fat pants and muffin tops! I actually call mine my “fat belt” and I’m ready to shed it! Find out the details of the K9 Kamp at Kol’s Notes – you can get started too!

If you are looking for some fun with your dog – join in! This is a blog hop!

What were we thinking?

May 16, 2012

Cali seems to be feeling better. Less panting, more sleeping . . all is well We worked hard all day, made some dinner, and then decided to go for a walk, sans dog. Before dinner we removed all of the kitchen cabinet doors so I can paint them tomorrow, including the one that houses the [...]

You guys are the best!

May 15, 2012

Thank you for all of your kind comments about the longest day of my life. You all understand better than most of my friends and family how stressful this is and I’m so grateful to know all of you, even if it is virtually. We had a long weekend worrying about Cali and trying to [...]

The longest day of my life.

May 11, 2012

This morning at 7:45 we dropped Cali off at the vet to have her broken tooth removed. As you can imagine, I was totally dreading this and didn’t sleep very well last night. Unfortunately, I am a total worrier, it’s something I am trying to get better about, but that dark side of my mind [...]

Almost Wordless Wednesday #29

May 9, 2012

The sun has been shining in Portland, Oregon lately and it makes everyone do this: Isn’t that the cutest smile you’ve ever seen? She has been such a trooper during all of the remodeling noise and mess. We still can’t decide if she is losing her hearing – it may be that her hearing is [...]

Monday Mischief

May 7, 2012

As we finally approach the home stretch in the window replacement marathon, my hubby and I disagree on whether or not we should re-hang the blinds in the front window. I say “no” because I am painting the trim white, and they are a little off-white. He says “yes” because he likes to close them [...]

In need of a pep talk . .

May 1, 2012

Our remodel update of the kitchen is slowly but surely coming along and today, they cut the hole for the slider downstairs. Living in a construction zone is stressful (and dirty!). The house is a mess, we don’t have a stove or a sink, and I’m already tired of eating out . .but, enough about [...]

Poor kitties!

April 27, 2012

It has been a rough week around here. The new windows are being installed and it has been LOUD!! It’s been fun(?) trying to work with all of the hammering and sawing that has been going on. It took an entire day for them to tear off and replace the garden window in the kitchen [...]

The mystery of the broken tooth . .

April 23, 2012

Last Thursday I was walking out of the bedroom when I spotted this on the floor: It was too big to be a cat tooth, so I decided that it had to belong to Cali I tried to look in her mouth but couldn’t really see anything (have you ever tried to look in your [...]

Signs of spring!

April 16, 2012

We have had a couple of days of sunshine and 60 degree temps! Woohoo! The trees are started to show signs of life, and some spring flowers are appearing . .ah . . .life is good! Cali loves when the sun comes out, because it means that we sit outside and she LOVES to be [...]

Blog the change: Pets are forever.

April 15, 2012

It breaks my heart every time I read about a pet that has been “given up” because a family had to move, or a because a baby was born, or because the dog was just too active (or in other words . . .untrained!). The other excuses? “I don’t have time for him”, “I can’t [...]

Thursday Rant

April 12, 2012

I try not to be one of those people that complains all of the time (really, I do!!) but sometimes I get a little frustrated and this has been one of those weeks. Maybe it started with our remodeling project and the fact that our house is a complete mess, or maybe it was the [...]

April 9, 2012

Woohoo! I am so excited that this is post #100. If you know anything about me, you know that sometimes I have a problem sticking with something. It feels good to know that I have posted 100 times on my blog – yay me! How did you spend your holiday weekend? We had absolutely GORGEOUS [...]

Hooray for Mr. Chewy!

April 5, 2012

Oh how I wish I knew about Mr. Chewy while I was living in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina. There was only one small store that offered a tiny selection of high quality foods and treats near our house. I was amazed to see that Mr. Chewy carries over 70 brands! I was given a $50 [...]

A little reminder ..

April 3, 2012

I mentioned last week that I got a tattoo while I was on a “business” trip to Myrtle Beach. I wanted something meaningful and I wanted it put in a place that I would see it. I think it is a perfect reminder and I just love the way it turned out I know it’s [...]
