  1. I signed up to run a half marathon this Saturday.
  2. I’m not even nervous – yet.
  3. My daughter asked if Josie was going to be a Saint Dane.
  4. Yes, I think she will forever now be a Saint Dane.
  5. Even though she looks absolutely nothing like a Saint Bernard nor a Great Dane.
  6. THANKFULLY!
  7. I’m am practically a master player of Plants vs. Zombies.
  8. Except that I have to actually have possession of MY VERY OWN IPAD in order to play.
  9. The split second I put it down, my kid takes it, and when she doesn’t have it my husband does.
  10. Should a zombie attack our house, we would know what to do.
  11. The zombies wearing buckets on their heads need a triple tap, while those with orange road cones only need a double tap.
  12. Of course, I’m not sure where we’d find all of those attack plants.
  13. Do you think Stein’s carries a peashooter?

  Guess who weighs 51 pounds? She doesn’t look that big from this angle, does she? She’s doubled her weight since June. DOUBLED! I sure hope she’s full grown pretty soon, they stop growing at six months old — RIGHT?

  

  And she’s still got a little head. Little head, little dog. Right?

  

  However, her body takes up the entire back seat of my Honda Civic. And what’s with all of those freckles?

• Roadkill and stuff

  • The morning started with 22 emails from the server at work POLITELY reminding me that I did not put the back-up tape into the tape drive yesterday. It was crossed off on my to-do list so CLEARLY sabotage was involved.
  • And then Josie, who has two dog obedience classes under her collar, snuck out the garage door this morning and I had to chase her around the front yard and side yard screaming “Josie COME!” in the best authoritative voice I could muster up. It didn’t work. My husband tackled her. Thank goodness for all that high school football and wrestling he did!
  • He asked me: “What was that thing she had in her mouth?” Oh that was some kind of roadkill.
  • That stain on my t-shirt? That’s fresh Starbucks coffee.

• Wordless Wednesday: He still fits, kinda

  When he was a kitten this was Jasper’s favorite place to sleep.

  This is where I found him on Monday night.

• Paw fur

  I just love Olive. She’s so fluffy. She has white puffs of fur that comes out of her ears like horns, her tail looks like a plume, but what’s really wild is the long fur on her paws between her pads.
