Puppy Watch 8.20

Wow.  How easy it is to forget what it's like to have a puppy.  The last puppy I had, a pit bull named DaisyMae, was back in 2000.  At the time, I was a stay at home mom, so it wasn't so bad doing the puppy training.  With Sadie, and working days, means she's left alone a few hours until my son gets up.  From the grumpy look on his face, I gathered she got him up rather early this morning.  lol

I need to remember to reduce my fluids in the evening -- because if I need to get up, she also wants to get up and go out.  1AM is no time to be wandering the backyard on a work night!!! And no more 'snooze' is allowed on my morning alarm.  I need to get up and moving, ready by 5:15 so there's time for a quick walk around the block with her.  She loved it; its a really nice time to be out, I have to admit.  Gonna take some adjustment for ME rather than her.  lol

Today, it was 108, so I let her play in the hose for a little bit, wet her down, then soaped her up for a bath in the hose as well.  She didn't seem to mind at all!

Wish I had something more interesting to tell .... but my day was a typical Monday for the most part, and I'm tired like I am on Mondays as well.  lol

Tuesday:  I didn't post this I see.  It was pretty much the same today.  I am standing here at the stove, fixing some beef and broccoli stir fry, and trying to catch up on my computer time.  Sadie us right under foot -- because she wants to be near me?  or near the beef she can smell?? hahaha  Another fun evening ahead, I'm sure.  Can't wait for the weekend when I can catch up on my sleep. :)
