Hello!

Why hi there... I bet you're wondering where I've been... nowhere really... I have to admit, even having a dog doesn't make my life all that exciting. More painful, but definitely not more exciting. Let's see what's gone on in the last month...

My pup has grown, she's now about 12 pounds and a little monster. Olive will sit if she thinks she is getting a treat, sometimes will lay down on command, and is now playing "which hand?" with Ben, although she's not too good with it. Still some piddle accidents inside when she doesn't let us know she's got to go, but she does great on the leash and really likes to jog with me. We're starting puppy classes Wednesday at Petsm@rt so hopefully she won't be known as a little monster any more.

This weekend my Grandparents had their 50th wedding anniversary. 50 years... incredible to me. It was good to see my family, but a little strange since I really hadn't seen much of them since I started Tech. I talked with the people that were important and if I make it to the family reunion I'll be sure to get around to some more people that weren't at the party.

Wow other than that, we have a few busy weekends coming up. Ben is having a few friends over for this weekend (my first opportunity to play hostess to friends), next weekend is Kristin's wedding which I'm super excited about, then Ben's parents are coming to visit and the weekend after that I have a few hours to work on Sat and maybe Sunday.

Here are some pics of Olive.... and after those check out little Sonya... can you see any resemblance?
