Things haven't really changed so much since Memorial Day. Greg never knew I was kind of upset that day and if he did, he really didn't know why. We continue to get along great but then again, with his biking and our shows on hiatus, we only see each other for an hour or two most weeknights and things have been extra busy for me this month with my ( Read more... )

I'm curious about the Greatest American Dog which premiers this evening as it combines two of my favorite things - the concept of Survivor and of course, dogs. It could be really good or it could be really lame. I guess we'll find out at 7:00pm ( Read more... )

No trouble getting to work this morning now that the streets are plowed.

This afternoon is the college graduation ceremony at Joslyn. Normally I'd like to wear a skirt or something nice but given conditions outside, I settled for black jeans and a mohair sweater instead.

I just checked the Nebraska Humane Society website for the first time in a ( Read more... )

Skip right to the part you're interested in, if any ...

Health: I booked a one-hour massage tonight at the school by my house and good lord, I needed that. The girl said I had such huge knots in my back muscles that it was a wonder I wasn't in pain all day. Sometimes, but mostly just in the morning.

This morning we got up early and put in our three hours walking dogs at the humane society. Given it was the first time for me since adopting Muddy, it felt different. No longer was I looking at each dog wondering "Could this be the one?" but instead was there to do a job to the best of my ability. Dogs of all shapes and sizes were walked as " ( Read more... )

My attempts to find out what sort of dog Muddy really is ... ( Dear Jane, )

This is one of longest self-imposed breaks from lj I've ever taken but there's a reason. Tuesday night we did indeed adopt Maverick, now renamed Muddy after Muddy Waters. With his Southern heritage, big sad brown eyes and Bruce's love of the blues, it seems to fit. He's so calm and gentle, we figured if Megan couldn't get along with him, she'd ( Read more... )

• Sonny got adopted Sonny was put down
  
  
• According to Kathy T., Rusty went to a good home with a nice young guy last Sunday after we looked at him.
  
  
• I've racked up 41 volunteer hours since starting back up in April.
  
  
• JOTG 3/5 was fun. Julie called everyone the night before in attempt to coordinate our potluck. She brought homemade guacamole, ( Read more... )

When you're kinda sorta in the market for another dog, volunteering at the Humane Society is like repeatedly taking a dangerous roller coaster ride. Of course there was another we liked and would consider adopting: Maverick. At 3 years and 45 pounds, he's younger and smaller than he appears to be in the picture (admittedly not the greatest). His ( Read more... )
