Monday

A decent day, followed by an intense spin class, a walk with the pups and taking some time to smell the flowers.

Then Rio had to ruin it.

That brat broke her end of the dual leash and ran away from me when we were two blocks from home. 😬 Charlie and I chased her across lawns and thru our neighborhood, and she thought it was a game! We’d get close, she dart off. It happened again and again. I got so frustrated. If dogs could laugh she’d be in stitches, crying from laughing so hard. I was not amused. I even yelled at her, “You’re running toward 40th (a busy street), do you WANT to die??”

Eventually, a guy around my age walked out of his house with his dog and he held onto Charlie while I finally got ahold of Rio. I had some strong words for her and we headed home. I sent that snap to my boyfriend, who is still at work. He was frustrated with her too.

In other news, we leave for vacation in 10 days!! I’m ready for sun, surf, and sand for seven days!!⛱🏝

Have a great week friends!!

My apologies if we’re friends on Facebook…because then you’ve already seen this. However, it’s too good not to share here as well.

So this just happened…I went to the grocery store this afternoon and was greeted by Santa Claus! He gave me a candy cane, said he wondered when I would be coming to see him, and told me I had to sit on his lap if I wanted a photo!
