Life has been pretty crazy lately. Good crazy for the most part.
Tomorrow is the big moving day! I am very very excited. Pretty stressed. And a little sad. While I love the new loft, love that I will be living with the boyfriend, love the new neighborhood and so many other things about the new place, I am very sad to leave my downtown apartment. I adore this apartment. It is the first place I lived after moving here to Portland. I love living in the middle of all the action. I love my balcony overlooking all the crazies this city is home to. I am going to miss my roommate (my good friend from middle school) and having my neighbor/friend Adumb always "Kramering" in all the time. Its a good thing though. A good move. Literally.
The real time-suck these days though...DEX. My wonderful little pup. I am so in love with him already its insane. I am consumed with fear that I am not taking all the right steps or teaching him the right things in the right ways. I am on my second book by the wonderful Dog Whisperer, Cesar Millan. Dexter is so great, he really is a good dog, so sweet and loving. But trust me he can be a baby devil. I am stressed to the max trying to give him everything he needs, while teaching him the rules of two households, and caring for him along side a toddler and a 4 year old all week. I know it will all pay off though. And snuggling with him every morning is worth every bit of trouble. Just look at that face!
My love.
I can totally understand your 'stresses' about the move. I was the same way... Good luck with the move and your new place.
ReplyDeleteAND... your puppy is SO CUTE! He's beautiful! And I love the name:) Puppies will be puppies... I'm sure you're doing an awesome job with training! Enjoy your snuggles! He's adorable!:)
dude he is so cute, i want one.
ReplyDeleteahhhh SO CUTE!! i don't blame you for being in love with the guy.
ReplyDeleteadvice on training (take it or leave it): everyone i have encountered while in veterinary school has advised against Cesar Millan. & i HIGHLY recommend Dr. Sophia Yin. not only is she a veterinarian, but she is trained in animal behavior. her website is: [askdryin.com]. i have seen her give talks a couple of times now & the woman is amazingly talented at what she does. if you want to know more, just let me know & i'd be happy to help!! :)
Aaaaah he is SO cute !! What kind of dog is he ? I love him.
ReplyDeleteyour dog is the cutest!!! i hope you have a smooth transition with your move. i hear you on leaving a downtown apartment. it's amazing being in the center of the action and enjoying a city lifestyle.

Hope the move went well!
ReplyDeleteYour puppy is adorable! My puppy is now 7 months old. I also devoured Dog Whisperer books and stressed, stressed, stressed when I first got him. My advice? Kongs or any other chew toys stuffed with treats. Try Natural Balance, lamb flavour. It's actually a dog food, but he doesn't know that. Good luck!
Oh. My. Gosh. That is THE cutest puppy!!!!!
