Happy New Year

And I have to write down my resolution right now. I am going to make a better blog effort.

I cannot believe that I missed all those weeks since October. Oh well no sense crying over split milk. I guess I must have been busy, doing something or other.

2009 came in with a blast and we had a blizzard. That's okay since Hugh and I were getting over the 'flu and quite enjoyed lazing back and watching television.
Eating jello and applesauce and drinking clear fluids. At least we don't have any weight gain to get rid of!

The young "T"'s had Christmas dinner with us and we enjoyed watching Claire opening her gifts. She was so sweet saying thank you every time she opened a gift, including the ones from the dog.
Here she is opening her Upsa Dayzy Doll.

I took Jake for a walk in the snow today. He loves it, rolls around, tries to get his coat off, but he sure hates the salt on his poor paws. He was trying to walk on two legs coming in the driveway, I had to carry him. He did get Doggy Boots for Christmas, but he and I haven't come to the correct understanding yet as to how to get them on successfully without him snapping at me. I think I'll get a muzzle, then he can growl and mumble but not snap.

I am sure that will be a story for another day.

Maybe you should post a pic a day from your NZ trip to keep your blogging up? It would also be a great way for me to finally see them since a cute little girl is always around when I'm by your computer :)

that's a great idea, patti.

i think you need a visit from cesar millan to sort out jake and his growling! watch the "dog whisperer" on national geographic and you'll learn to channel your energy so jake knows who's boss!
