Eclipse

My mom was acting weird tonight. Usually she puts me to be around 1 in the morning (she gets home from work around 11:15 at night). But tonight she said she had to stay up late so I could too. Then at a little before 2 am, we were upstairs while she worked on the computer. Then she picked me up and held me at the window and told me to look at the moon. “someone took a bite out of it, was it you?” she asked. As if….

But I have to admit, it does look a little odd, it does look like someone took a bite out of it. It was probably Kato. She said it was called an eclipse and that in about an hour the whole moon would be dark but there would be a glowing ring around it. That sounds really cool. She said the last time she saw one was the night the Red Sox won the World Series (I have no idea what that means). She told me I could stay up a while later but I’m so tired she is going to put me to bed now. She said she was going to watch it until around 3:15 when it is in totality and then she will probably go to bed. But she also told me she had 2 cups of coffee at work so I bet she doesn’t go to bed at all. That means she will be really cranky tomorrow. Guess I had better be on my good behavior. Yawn.

Even busier day

I thought yesterday was busy! Boy, today was even more so. I got up late but it's a good thing.

First we went back to home depot, then we went to Hometown Feed, where we got a bunch of stuff. we got cat food for Carlos and Kato, we got a free bag of dog food (buy 10 get 1 free) and dog treats for me. We got a finger toothbrush for my mom. I didn't find out till we got home that it's not for her, it's for me! She is going to put it on her finger and then rub it on my teeth – she thinks! But we also got my present from our sale. I got a really cool fuzzy bright green Frisbee that squeaks. It is very cool and I played with it when I got home.

Then we went to the vet so I could get my manipedicure. I sure like going there. They pass me around to everyone. Someone went out front and told my mom that she might as well leave because I was staying there. It would have been fun. They looked at my funky teeth and told my mom that was par for my breed, and they said my spaycial surgery incision looked great.

Then we went to Papa Murphy's to get pizza then to Jay's Farm Stand to get stuff my mom eats (yuk).

Then we sat outside in the sun. It's been really nice out and hot too. Carlos never came out today. I guess I wore him out yesterday chasing him all over the yard.

I am exhausted!

We had a busy day

August 22, 2007

Man, we had a busy day today. First my mom picked blackberries on the other side of the fence and I had to sit there and watch the whole time in case she fell off the ladder. Then she gave me a bath and we sat outside in the sun. Then we went to her work at the hospital so I could show them my tricks (I can roll over and I can dance - I really like to dance!), then we went to Home Depot and bought some stuff for the house. I guess my mom wants to plant some bushes and trees. That sounds like fun, that will give me something more to chew on and dig up. I was so tired when we got home I wanted to go to bed and curl up in my big pink towel. I got to wear my cool collar today, it's the first time I have been big enough . It's black with little embroidered pink roses on it. My mom got it for me before I even came home!

Our first sale!!

August 19, 2007

I am SO EXCITED! We made our first sale on our website today. That is awesome. My mom said she was going to buy me a present when that happened. I wonder what it will be.

A spanking!

August 16, 2007

I got my first spanking this afternoon (at least I don't remember any others). I didn't think I was doing anything bad; I was just chewing on a plant outside. My mom told me "No!" but I thought she was kidding because why would she tell me not to eat a plant? But I guess she was serious because next thing I knew, I felt a really sharp pain on my backside and she yelled "No" at me really loud. It kind of freaked me out because I have not seen her mad at me before. Actually, I don't think she was that mad really. She said I was not supposed to eat plants because they can make me sick. I don't know, it tasted pretty good to me. But I guess for now I will pay attention because that did sort of hurt. She never seems to get mad at Carlos although she does fight with him sometimes.

My Loofah

August 15, 2007

My mom bought me a new toy – it's a Loofah. I already have one, a little pink one holding an Easter egg. This one is big and lime green. He is as long as I am. He is very cool. He is so cool in fact that I took a lot of my toys outside and put them on my bed in the yard and my mom took some pictures. She took some pictures of Carlos and me too. She put them on my Myspace page and she put them on www.wunderground.com too! I am on my way to being famous, I just know it! I have to practice signing my name. I am not sure if I should sign "Lily Rose" or "Lily Rose, President, DoggyPanache". I guess I can practice both ways. I wonder if they make pink pens.

Some present

August 11, 2007

A present came for me yesterday in a big box in a brown truck. I couldn't imagine what it could be but I had a feeling it might be a box full of clothes!

But then my mom showed me my present. She called it a "grooming table". I have to stand on it and then she puts a noose around my neck to hold me still and then she brushes me. Personally, I am not very impressed, I think it is more of a torture device than anything else. But I still get cheese when I am done so I guess it's worth it.

Carlos is 8 years old.

August 9, 2007

Today is Carlos' birthday. He is 8 years old. No wonder he is the boss of the house. My mom was extra nice to him (I know he is her favorite though). But then she gave him a bath. He sure made a lot of noise in the sick, I had to go outside because it upset me to hear him howl. But afterwards he came and sat in the sun and cuddled a lot with my mom. She said he is really soft now. My mom gave Carlos, Kato, and me some special treats to celebrate his birthday too.

Sitting outside

August 8, 2007

Now that the weather is nice, I have been spending a lot of time outside. My mom bought me a cool thing to sit on outside. That way I don't have to sit in the grass. She comes outside and puts all my toys up there for me and of course I take them all off right away. When the weather is sunny, on my mom's day off she sits outside a lot and reads in the sun. Carlos comes out too and he has his special chair to sit in. I have a feeling that is so he can get away from what my mom called my "piranha teeth". What is a piranha? It's nice though. Of course Kato the psychotic does not come out with us, sometimes he just wanders around the neighborhood.
The next-door neighbor has a couple of visitors who come at noon every day and they always lean over the fence and play with me. So now if I am inside I listen for their car so I can run outside. My mom thinks that is really funny.

Modeling job

August 2, 2007

Wow! I am EXCITED! Today I got to do my first real modeling. My mom was not very happy cause I need a bath really bad and my hair is all over the place so it was mostly a practice session. But I think I did really well. In fact, the one I call my "Jon-Benet" pose is my default picture it came out so good! I did scare my mom because I jumped off the table when the phone rang and landed kind of hard, but I am okay. It was really fun to model but it's is so hard to stay still!!!

Back to myself again

August 1, 2007

I think I am back to myself again. My mom let me play with Carlos today a little. My sore spot on my stomach doesn't really hurt anymore but it sure itches.

My mom said tomorrow she is going to take me to Home Depot. I don't know what it is but she said I will like it. I haven't been to Walmart lately. My mom says she is staying away from it because they take her money. I miss going though. When I have my modeling career I will be able to go and buy stuff for myself or buy stuff off my website (remember, I am the President and Chief Executive Officer of www.doggypanache.com so I bet I could give myself a discount).
