Day 73

When your own mother points out that your slacking on blogging you know you have to step it up.


It’s not lack of material. These two make it easy as they’re always up to something funny. I was just outside with Lu and Gus watching their antics. Before Lu’s surgery, Lu was fast, really fast. She would show off her superior ability by running laps around the yard with Gus after doing their business. Lu was at least 50% faster than Gus and was happiest being chased rather than being the chaser. So it was interesting to see how she would adapt to her new clumsy gate and reduce speed. She cleverly compensated by decreasing the size of the circles she was running so she was always within Gus’s circuit. When Gus would approach she’d lunge for him and bite playfully. It was as if she was giving fate the finger. Hell no was she going to chase. Instead she found a new way. That’s my girl.

I took a few pictures earlier today of Lulu on the patio under a chair. I’m not sure why she was hanging out under the chair but she looked serene on a late August day.
