Ouch.


Yesterday ... Great day. Today ... I'm sicker than a dog.

I woke up at 4 this morning and my throat was killing me. It hurts to swallow and I can't stop blowing my nose. Rebecca was this way on Friday, I'm thinking I got whatever she has.

Oh well, now I won't feel so bad for sitting on the couch all day and watching TV. :)

Here's some recent pictures of the little devil.


Alex is helping save Pink Lids for Breast Cancer. This is the only human food he begs for. The whole time I eat yogurt, he sits here waiting for the container to play with.


Alex sleeping yesterday while I was playing CinderSuzy, downloading music and making dinner. He's a doll.


Alex came to work with me last week and I bought him a shirt so he didn't have to go naked. He loved wearing it. No, he did. Seriously.


So since he liked the t-shirt I went and got him a hoodie. It's so cute on him! I need an OSU jersey for him. *wink*wink*nudge*nudge* Mom ... maybe you can find one before you guys head to Florida. (size XS)

Why do puppies chew on their feet?

I've spent like a million dollars on toys, bones and treats for Alex and he's sitting here chewing on his own foot. I can't imagine it's that tasty.

He learns tricks really well. He doesn't get as excited as Cory but maybe he's too young. He knows how to "sit", "lay down", "high five" and "gimmie a kiss" but he can't figure out why I drag him outside every time he pees on my carpet.

He finally taught himself how to go down the steps and he's slowly learning how to climb the gate. *sigh* He isn't afraid of his leash anymore and loves to go outside and for car rides.


In other news ... for the first time in my life I got sent home from work last night. Haha. This store has never felt like my store back home. I miss Kelly H and Kelly M and Danielle, Valerie (and Will) and Nichole. I think I've put up with the crap long enough. It's been a year and high time I get out before the Holiday mess and two hour meetings on Saturday mornings.


In other awesome news I have found a Tastefully Simple girl in ... San Marcos! Yes. In SM!! She brought me a hostess kit to make and take to work. I can't wait. I hope to get her lots of sales. She's new to town and these Texans haven't heard of Tastefully Simple. It's my goal to get everyone hooked. Who wouldn't love beer bread and dip for football season?


I only took one nap today so it's time for me to hit the sack. Haha. Goodnight.

Booking now for Winter

Alex the decorator. Call soon, he's booking up fast.

His specialty -- quietly redecorating while you sleep w his favorite fabric, Kleenex.



This is why puppies sleep in cages. Little brat.

I am off from work until Tuesday and he's going to have his world rocked with behavior training. I am tired of his lunging toward my face and the licking ... the licking MUST stop.

Time to head to Austin ... Alex is visiting the BoA building today. My co-workers don't believe he's part devil. Haha.

What's my name?

As a 3 month old puppy Alex is hearing a lot of new things. Mostly "no", "stop", "goddamnit", "be nice" and "omg, do you hate me, Satan".

He seems to come when I say "Alex" so he's got to know that's his name. He is a smart boy but likes to get into anything within his tiny reach.

Yesterday I really think he was trying to make me cry (or drink). I was on the go from the time I got home from work until I finally was able to make time for dinner around 10-ish.

Alex, the destroyer, loves tearing up Kleenex, ripping up mail, snacking on my books, tormenting the cats, chewing on iPod cords, empting the trash and biting my pillows. What an angel, right?

He had his first bath last night and I would include pictures but really ... who can wash a puppy AND take pictures. But I really think he thought I was trying to drown him.

Alex is on Dogster ... http://www.dogster.com/pet_page.php?j=t&i=395627

Here are some pictures of him.






























(That's not a panther ... that's Petey. Alex = Tiny)
















(Big baby ... crying like someone was beating him)































(Do you think his bed is too big?)
















(Handsome little Monkey!)




Tomorrow is Mike's Birthday
