Heading to my sisters tonight!

I know I'm going to Penny's tonight so I wanted to pack everything up early on.  This morning I had Daddy pack up my crate and put it in the car in case I decided to go early.

Then I found out that Penny's family was busy all day so I stayed home and helped Mom with the packing and laundry for their trip.  We got lots of stuff done.

Mom's friend from yesterday came by again and I had to let her pet me some and then we went out.  Then Mom called her friend (my dogmother) and talked to her some.  She said nice things about me.  She's a nice lady.

Then Daddy called to say he'd be home before I left so that's good.  I didn't know how I was going to get that crate set up by myself.  It looks hard to do so Daddy can do that for me while I catch up with everyone.

mimi-aug-22-08 Mom took a picture of me eating before we left.  I didn't want to go over there and take all their food.  But if there is any extra, I won't mind!

I heard that my mom and my brother Thunder will be dropping by sometime for a visit.  That will be so good to see them again.  I was thinking of getting family reunion bandanas. 

I won't see my new family for 2 weeks.  That sounds like a long time.  Longer than I've lived here.  I hope they don't forget me!

Another new day and another person

I got up early again to meet the new day. I woke my dad up at 4:30am and we went out.  When we came back in, Daddy went back to sleep but I played for awhile.  Then he got up again and then Mom then the day finally got started.

I went out again and there was a big truck across the street that made beep beep sounds then went around my corner and beeped again.  I wonder what he wanted.

A friend of Mom's came over to meet me.  At first I didn't want to want to meet any more people but she seemed nice and I let her hold me and pet me.  People can be nice, too.

I tried to help Mom with the laundry since some of it was mine but she said she didn't need help so I played with some stuff.  I'm still working at getting this collar off, too.

I napped and played and went out to roll around in the grass until Daddy came home then we all went out - again.

Mom is always resting on the sofa so I thought I would, too, but she wasn't happy about that and made me get down.  That's just not fair if she can but I can't.

Tomorrow I get to see my sister again and I can't wait.  I miss her, the other dog and even that cat (blech).

New stuff

Daddy was going to that work thing early today so we woke up Mom so she could be with me.  She wasn't too happy.  I think she likes to sleep more than I do!

We went out after breakfast (more of the same stuff from dinner) and I guess those drumline people had practiced enough because they weren't there.  Good thing.  They are very distracting.

Mom went out for a little while and played with other dogs.  Yesterday and today she's playing with other dogs?  Harrumph.

When she got back we went out for a while and walked around.  A man brought a big box to the house but it wasn't for me.

Then she said we were going for a ride.  And we did.  We went a little ways and got out of the car and went in a new place.  Nice people!  They knew my name and called to me as my Mom was carrying me in the front door.  It's all about Me! Me!

Then we went in a room and I was on this high place.  Someone put me in this basket and said I weighed 12 pounds.  I'm gaining weight already!  Then I saw a picture of a cat (blech) on the basket and I didn't like that much!

Another person came in and looked in my ears and eyes and did stuff I'm glad my Mom didn't take pictures of.  She let me eat this stuff that she said tasted like banananas but I don't know what those are, either. Then she gave me lots of treats and gave my Mom a big puppy kit that had more dogfood and stuff in it.  She said I couldn't have it yet, maybe after I eat my other stuff.  Even my own shampoo!

Those people were so nice and they invited me back in a few weeks.  I hope they don't need to take my temperture again, though.

We were outside again later at night and I saw a big black and white cat.  I wanted to go over and meet it but mom said she thought it was a skunk and we should stay away.  Then Daddy came home and I told him about my day.

He opened the big box and it was full of books that my human brother wrote!  He wrote Mom, Daddy, and Nana's names in the front but not mine.  mom pointed out that he hadn't met me yet when he wrote that book but if he did know me my name would be there.  I'll never be able to read it anyway.  It's called Using Tree Automata to Investigate Intuitionistic Propositional Logic (Mom had to put that in for me.  He sure sounds smart!).

I'm tired.  I think I'll go out one more time then go to bed and think about those words.  I know what a tree is...

Another busy day

I thought I was coming here for some rest. Guess that's not going to happen!

The man (I think I'll call him Daddy) took me out in the morning. We watched some man cut down a tree with something loud. I wanted to go in so we did.

Then he was going to something called "work". I don't want to know what that it but it means you have to carry a heavy box with you. I tried to look in the box before but it just looked like papers. Maybe he chews on them when he gets to work. Maybe that is work. Am I working?

The woman (Mommy doesn't sound right to me) took me out and all of a sudden there was this loud sound. She said that it was the drumline for the school practicing for a game. I don't practice for my games so I'm not sure why they do. They had to practice a lot, though. Almost every time I went out today they were banging away on those things.

She said she was going out for a little while to see a friend and do that pee-an-oh thing again. I'm going to have to learn this, I think. I rested in my room. When she came home she smelled like she had been petting another dog!

We went out again, more of that noise, then went in. Hooray! It's hot out there.

She used that toy she puts by her face to talk into and she put it up to my ear. I could hear someone talking even though I couldn't see them. Very interesting. The person is my new dogmother and her name is Alcie. She sounded so nice. She's thinking about getting a puppy too and that will be nice because we can talk to each other over this same toy. My mom said something about a webcam but that sounded silly.

Then, finally, a nap. When I got up we went outside, same people making noise, then while we were out Daddy came home. That was exciting!

I helped him make the new fence for awhile but then I got bored so I went inside and watched from there.

We played for awhile, then ate, back outside - no sounds this time - then bed. Finally!

I heard something new is happening tomorrow but I'm not sure what that is.

Today was pretty good

These people are watching my every move to be sure I stay a "good girl".

This morning, the man and I went out for a nice walk outside on the grass - I can't go on sidewalks yet cause I'm too young.  I met another nice dog and we got to know each other a little.

The woman had some of those pee-an-oh students and they all thought I was cute - of course.

The man is fixing up the fence so I can go out back by myself soon.  I used to go out back with my siblings and the cat (blech!) but I could get out of the fence here too easily and they don't want that.

In the afternoon we went for a long walk in the park.  That was pretty fun.  It was silly though...the people drove me to the park so we could walk.  They're careful about those sidewalks!

IMG00020 When we got back I was tired and took a nap by the fireplace.  It always looks like there's another MiMi behind me!

After the nap, I helped the man and my human brother bring some wood around the side for the new fence.

Then my brother was leaving to go back wherever he lives so they left and the woman and I took a much deserved long nap before we went outside again. 

Now I'm going to go play with a tape measure, I think.  Then, maybe a nap...

Well, I'm in my new home





And here's our Mom. I think I'm going to look like her!



I told the man I wasn't going to like the plastic crate they got so they got me a nice wire one just like I had at my foster home! Wow!

After the people signed some more papers they came to get me and I said good bye to my foster family but only until this weekend. These people are going away on something called vacashion so I'm going back to my sister's place.

I brought some old pictures with me, too, of my mom and family. When I get my slideshow working I'll probably add these, too.

My new brother, the one who put my picture in the header, is going to take me out to play so I gotta go.

It looks like I'm moving tomorrow

I haven't seen them but I heard that the people went out and got me a new crate and a denim beanbag to sleep on. How comfy is that? And I won't have to share with anyone. It's all for MeMe!

They also got some toys and snacks and that sounds great. Fun stuff all for ME to play with and eat and that sounds great. I won't have to fight anyone to get the good stuff.

They also got something called a collar and a leash and I'm not sure about those. Maybe I can hide those somewhere and be done with them.

Thanks to my human brother

I won't get to know him too well, at least for a while, because they said he's a doctor but I don't think he's a vet so he's not a real doctor.

Anyway, he's going to go to work in another place so he's moving, just like me.  I will meet him on Sunday and be able to thank him in person (?) for fixing my picture at the top of the page.

It was bothering me having a dog I didn't know on MY page (after it's all about ME! ME!) so he got my picture up there instead.

As I grow and get cuter and cuter, my new parents will take lots of pictures and I'll have a slideshow but for now, this one's it.

Thanks, bro!

I've been thinking

but not too much.  I've been busy playing.

I think these people will work out ok. The man isn't going to be there much during the day and the woman teaches pee-an-o.  I don't know anything about this but I know about peeing so I should be a big help to her.

I hear that most of the people she teaches are kids so that should be fun!  I love kids!

So, I think that there are 4 more big sleeps before I move to my new home!  I'm very excited.  I'm having these people sign some papers to be sure they take good care of me.  A puppy can never be too careful!  After they do that, I'll make my move.

Moving out?

I've been thinking about it and I think I might like to move in with those people. They seemed nice enough and not bothered by me and my sister playing around.

I sent someone over to their house to check on things, to see if there was a yard I could play in, if there was any good chewable furniture, stuff like that.

I also wanted to know about where I'd sleep. Sleeping is important to keep up my energy and growing up.

I think they did ok on my home inspection so I might move in with them this weekend. Seems like it will be fun but I'll miss my foster family (and even that cat - blech!)

Me! Me!


The guy in the header doesn't look quite like me but it will have to do for now until I can get my own picture up there.

Right now, I'm living with 2 of my sisters, a cat (blech) and an older dog at my foster mom's house. Since we're already 10 weeks old a couple of my siblings already moved to new homes and another sister is leaving soon.

Last night, a couple people came out to see me and I think I'm going to move in with them. They seemed ok. I tried to play with the woman a little by nipping at her fingers but she told me no and I stopped. We also tried untying the man's shoes and he didn't seem too upset so maybe they'll be an ok family.

I was tired at the end of their visit and really wanted to sleep so I let the woman hold me while I got some much needed rest.

We'll see. Maybe they'll work out fine.
