Peggy is learning how to break out of Puppy Jail, aka her crate. She has done it twice now, including today when I was trying to nap. Then she peed on the bedroom carpet out of excitement. >_< It's a process. The house training is still a lot more miss than hit these days ( Read more... )

I'd forgotten I posted in January. I thought the last time was sometime last summer, and oddly it makes me feel a little better that I didn't abandon this space as long as I thought I had ( Read more... )

 I don't know why I constantly overestimate my level of energy to get things done. I am an eternal optimist, I guess. Anyway, I got a fair bit done this week. I got 95% of my errands done (I forgot a couple of things, because I was silly and didn't make a proper list), I got a tree which I will decorate probably tomorrow evening, I had my therapy ( Read more... )

( In which I talk about people not liking what I like. )

I'm feeling a bit more energetic these days. ( Light and energy. )

We've been having trouble with the dog, as I mentioned before. Last week he stole a sealed Ziplock bag of fifteen muffins off the counter and ate them all, did the same with half a box of Tim Horton's doughnuts, and has been sneaking the cat food when he thinks we're not looking. He's gained about five pounds over the winter, too, which is really ( Read more... )

Putting this out there in case anyone on my flist can help:

I need a room to live in Ottawa that's within walking distance of my job at 1200 Vanier Parkway, Ottawa. So anywhere near Vanier Parkway/Coventry/Riverside Drive would be ideal. It doesn't have to be a short walk, either, I am actually a pretty good walker and don't mind longer distances ( Read more... )

I don't have specific subject matter for today's post, so have a series of unrelated paragraphs ( Read more... )
