My dogs are crazy..lol. It snowed here so when I take them out they are all excited. then they hit the snow and you have never seen drama like this. Reznor lifts up his paws like he is walking on hot coals then lies down in the snow with all his feet off the snow. Calvin notices he is doing this and begins lifting his paws up as well. Diesel just looks at me and rolls his eyes. lol. I keep meaning to video it because it is so funny.
Its funny how their feet hurt so much but as soon as I mention going in they begin playing in the snow and take their time coming in.

Doggie...Its cold outside
Each morning, I wake up to the sweet whimpers of Reznor. He is still crated at night so he lets you know its time to get up and go potty. As soon as my eyes open I am assaulted by Diesel and Calvin. Morning kisses to start my day off perfectly.
I let Reznor out of his crate and take the boys outside. In winter, this is a big ordeal. The long lines are frozen, so I have to warm up the metal to get the clasp open. The wind is blowing and it is freezing out as I fumble with 3 lines. Once I finally get that done...they go and...play. In the freezing weather they are out there playing. Chasing the one leaf that is left, digging in the dirt, barking at people walking by. After about 20 minutes of freezing my ass off, its time to go in. No..this does not happen..Nope. The dogs decide that now they should potty. So I stand out there for another 10 minutes waiting. I can't go in because then they will stop what they are doing and run to the door because I am out of their sight. Once they are finally done, we come in and get a treat. I begin to thaw out when Reznor decides he has to go out again..He sits at the gate crying and howling. Outside we go where he plays with the rocks. No potty, just playing in the rocks. We come back in and Diesel decides he has to go out, so out I go..again.
This little potty game, lasts all day. Every 20-30 minutes I am taking one or all of them out, in the cold. I should mention..In the summer..we don't have this fun game. It is going to be a long long long winter.

life and everything in between
I enjoy my life as much as I moan and groan about being sick and broke. I am a very happy and positive person. A LOT has happened to me in the last 6 months and I have learned a lot. But really..do you want to read about my magical moments of clarity? Nah..I didn't think so.
This week has been crazy. Calvin had bladder surgery last week, so he has been high like his mommy all week..lol. Reznor has decided that the couch makes a yummy chew toy...he really took my words to heart when I whispered "chew the couch so I can get a new one"..opps my bad. Diesel has been trying to decide if he wants to play with Reznor or kill him. I believe the killing part is on top.
I managed to sprain my foot and ankle and then blew out my knee. I laugh at all this. What else can I do? LOL
My dogs are my life and I love them so much. Everyday I find a new reason to love them more. Diesel always seems to know when I need to cuddle and he crawls up on my chest and nuzzles his head in my nook. Calvin is too high to do anything. He seems to have become fond of being carried everywhere. He just plops down and waits for me to come get him and carry him to wear he needs to be. I have created a spoiled monster..lol. He ripped out some of his staples the other day so we had to go get more put in. Poor guy. Don't feel too bad for him, he did manage to look pathetic enough to get a new toy and a couple of treats. Reznor is the craziest of them all..He runs around the durniture like it is a race track and every circle around he gains speed and when he believes he is done. He just stops. LOL. His other new thing is that he gains speed on the carpet then hits the bare floor and slides. he stops when he hits a wall. He also enjoys harassing the frogs. Poor little frogs. He chases them and then picks them up in his mouth and drops them on the grass..I think he he thinks he is helping them. Yes..they have peed in his mouth..several times. He is doing well in puppy school, he enjoys getting my mom's dog in trouble by getting her to start barking..lol. He is my little terror.
Later today I should ahve some more fun stories since we have puppy class tonight and he hasn't seen my mom's dog since Saturday.
