Loves of my life
Serious matters and not so much
Barney is doing well. Here’s a picture from a couple of years ago. He has a tumor in his jaw, which started bleeding yesterday. He had surgery to remove the necrotic tissue, which must have been what gave him such bad breath last time I saw him. As I understand it from my remote location,Continue reading “Serious matters and not so much”
Dogs I have loved, and kinda loved
My little Barney face is having some health problems. Fortunately, I spent some quality time with him on my lap at the vet when I was home for Christmas…especially since I traumatized and neglected him the week I brought Isis into his home. I sort of knew when I said goodbye on Christmas (as opposedContinue reading “Dogs I have loved, and kinda loved”

Home entertainment
Yeah, we’ve rented some movies lately. We had to turn off “Lady in the Water” after 40 minutes because it was so stupid. We really enjoyed “Talladega Nights,” which is high praise, considering there isn’t a lot that’s more entertaining than watching Isis run around with a ball in her mouth, chasing another ball.

She met a 130-pound Newfoundland atContinue reading “News alert”
YBB, yeah you know me
I’m totally not exaggerating when I say that Yoga Booty Ballet is the most fun video workout. EVER. I should like, write a review on Amazon. And I’m something of an afficionado of video workouts. Starting with Cindy Crawford’s workout circa 1992. I’ve got bellydancing and pilates and kickboxing and cardio salsa… But I tendContinue reading “YBB, yeah you know me”
Take your daughter to work day
Who’s the best doggie in the whole wide world? She’s been at work with me all day, and aside from knocking over her water dish a bunch of times, essentially washing my carpet, she’s been an angel. She even sat through a 1/2 hour phone conversation with my boss and didn’t make a peep. She’sContinue reading “Take your daughter to work day”
Public service announcement
Doing a lot of this: and rubbing one’s eyes without paying attention to whether one has washed one’s hands could lead to this: Or at least that’s my theory. My eye doctor said, “Don’t blame it on the puppy.”
