Lots going on today. It’s the first day of waking up on the new daylight savings schedule meaning 6am is really 5! The oldest guy is up eating so he can get to school for tinikiling practice while the misses and I need to leave for her settlement conference at 9. Before then she has Monday Folders at school where she helps out and then after school, the youngest has D.I. and the oldest has baseball practice from 5:30 until dark. Meanwhile I need to ship about 20 boxes of wine plus I need to start selling some here as time is running out.
We received a little advice on Lacey yesterday, here’s one comment,
You know by feeding her she is training you. Bettie Mae needed to be fed more often as she got older. Try feeding Lacy 3 or 4 smaller meals with the last one an hour before you go to bed then let her out one last time (older dogs don’t sleep as long). She may be waking up because of pain, ask the vet about a pain pill before bed. Restlessness at night is a sign of pain in dogs. Good luck.
Uncle T also sent an email with similar suggestions. So no more feeding her when she barks. She did sleep in this morning but I think that’s just daylight savings time. We’ll see.
Mom took the boys sledding and they also built huge snow forts while I cleaned the house, at least the downstairs. Jag and I went to the store to get some fresh fish for dinner while the younger guy was taking full advantage of the sun now going down well after 7pm. When we called him home at 7, he was astonished that he had to come in explaining that “it’s still light out”. He of course is still sleeping. He’s more like his Mom when it comes to sleeping, meaning he can stay in bed and always seems to have the Monday morning flu, or wanting to stay in bed as long as possible.
The misses will look like something out of a horror movie as she’s having her face “lasered” today at the doctors office. Then she’ll take a picture and post it every single day so potential customers can see the transformation. Supposedly tomorrow she’ll have little pockets of blood all over her as this process literally takes off the top layer of skin. Like I said last week, they tried to get me to do it but I said no way! I like my wrinkles.
I’d better run as I’m already running late.
God Bless
