Carrying on....kind of....

Sorry it has taken me so long to post anything... but at least my Mom will be happy to know the reason why. I have spent the last two days reading "The DaVinci Code". What a fantastic book!! Now I know why the waiting list to get it from the library was so long. It is one of those books that you could actually read twice, just so you can go back and catch all the details you might have missed because you just wanted to figure out what the hell was going on. Pretty cool. Maybe I will write more about it later. I'm still processing the awesomeness of it all.

Anyway, this is just a quick note to say that I will write more about the trip to Canada later on today. Those posts take a minimum of an hour, sometimes closer to two and I was on early morning Buddy patrol (I carry my own handy set of keys and a "poopie" bag with me on this perrilous mission). He is back on the steroid medicine, so he wants to go out about every two to three hours. But if it allows his paw to heal, then it will all be worth it. I'm pretty sure. Yeah, yeah, it will all be worth it. :)

Love to all,

Sherry

P.S.- Excerpt from a conversation between myself and Franz-

F: "I don't understand him (Buddy). I don't know why he won't poop when I take him for walks... I drag him around all over out there and he always pees, but he never poops."

S: "I don't know either. Maybe it's because I always tell him when it's okay to go. I let him know when our walk is almost over so if he has to go he knows it's okay. I always say exactly this, "O.K. Bud-Bud, this is the last chance for potties, if you have any more poopies or pee-pees now is the time, okay?" And then he goes. I think if you say the same thing all the time he knows what is going on. So, that's what I say, exactly."

F: "Yeah, but I'm not going to say that. (long pause) You know you are crazy, right?"

S: "Yeah, yeah... it's sick and wrong, blah, blah, blah. (long pause) But it works."

Ah, the joys of dog ownership. :)
Love you all!
