And so our day began with....

Devin slept out on the couch last night in an attempt to get me to keep my socks on longer for my overnight "socking" treatment.  For some reason I move around less when I'm in my nest at night VS sleeping in my bed in the bedroom.  Normally Devin finds me with one sock on, one sock off, or part way on my feet/foot.

This morning Devin tried to play possum with me. I'm on to this game. I KNOW Devin wakes up at the first slight movement I make.  I stood there staring for a moment, did a little shake, when that didn't get Devin up I had a mild case of the crazies and decided to smack the couch with my foot. I made it look like I was about to jump up, but at the last second, I did a Karate chop with my foot.  MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!
Devin got up, and breakfast was served.  I'd like to add that this happened around 6:30ish.

After breakfast, I went back to bed for about 20mins, then decided it was time to go for my morning walk. I sure have Devin wrapped around my paw.  We went on a nice walk, cut through the field, our shoes/boots were both soaked, we sloshed around the block, then home we came.

Devin took Lambie out from "sick bay".  Nana had to put her there yesterday, as I kinda got carried away after Devin went to work and torn the seam down her back some.

Lambie in sick bay

Devin put Lambie on the ottoman while the "surgical kit" was retrieved from the hall closet. I washed no time with my Ninja skills.  I quietly exited my nest, grabbed Lambie and brought her back to my nest. When Devin turned around with the "kit", I had Lambie standing upright in my nest. I looked from behind Lambie at Devin. Eeeeeep, busted!

Busted!

Stitchin'

Devin went to work on stitching Lambie back together....

waiting for Lambie........*tick tick tick*

Devin gave the OK,  I came out and snatched Lambie - back to the nest!

Once in the safety of my nest, I decided I'd have a SMACKDOWN match with Lambie.... I chomped, tossed, chewed, chomped, tossed, and chomped some more.  Lambie lost her voice :(  She doesn't squeak anymore, more of a silent cry.....

DING DING *  Round 1

CHOMP

uh? distracted

ok..ok... I'm done.

and the crash.....

Corn Talk-

While working on my toes today, Devin was able to get a fingernail around and under the corn on my right foot.  Not wanting to push luck, Devin stopped trying to pull the corn away.  Again tonight, during my "sock treatment" Devin got at it again, more progress.  My left corn isn't ready to separate from my pad yet... Soon, it will get there!

out like a light before my bedtime/evening treatment.

Eeep! where did you come from??

(not ready corn)

(almost ready corn)

Remainder of the day -
Lambie cuddles and spooning

Devin did a whack load of laundry today. 1 set of my bedding was done today. Tomorrow my nest gets cleaned.  I get a feeling a "bath time" is about to happen soon....

I was concern when Devin took apart my bed in the bedroom to wash it. I felt like my whole life was shattering.   I know, I can be dramatic at times. I made the best of it.

 Nana came over for a walk before supper. That was nice of Nana to come walk with us.
When we got home Nana said, isn't it time for Milo to have his supper??  Devin said yes, so Nana went and made my food dish for me. She told me to sit and wait while she placed the bowl down. The first time I didn't listen, Nana took the bowl away as I was getting to it, the second time she told me, I sat still like a poker waiting for the "ok".  When Nana said Ok, I dove in there.

Nana, I think we'll do just fine with each other again.

Tomorrow morning Devin is bringing me out to see Dr. Janet to have my Thyroid panel done.  Nana is going to come along for the ride. *yay*  It's kind of a long ride, the company is nice for Devin to have; seeing i just sleep in the back the whole way there.


A few photos from yesterday:

When Devin came home from work yesterday, I was more than comfy on the big bed.

I made this nest all by myself!

Lambie on guard - Someone to walk over me.

Early morning tomorrow...

Snow Storms and Academy Awards....

Passed out last night.....

Today Devin tried to teach me:
Not every time I take a shower Milo does it mean I'm going out.

It took me about 2 hours to feel completely comfortable with the idea that Devin wasn't going to head out.
I laid around on my sheepie blanket; just outside my nest. I kept a sharp eye on Devin.

Finally I retreated into my nest.  I'd like to make note here that I DID NOT pant or pace when Devin got dressed.  Baby steps.

My new trick is to come out of my "nest" when i'm called to "come" with a treat waiting for me.  The past while I'd lay in my nest either waiting for several treats to come my way or snacks to be dropped into my bowl.  The humans would have to hide too - out of sight, out of mind.  They'd always get me though JUST as i'd be finishing up my snack. 

No convinced that Devin is going to stay - hanging outside my "nest"

Frog makes nice pillow -

Thanks for turning off the flash Devin!

NOM NOM NOM KONG TIME!   see ya Devin!

Devin went out this afternoon to run the roads with Melissa.  I was content to stay home with my KONGS.
When Devin came home we went outside for a stroll.  CRAZY WEATHER!
This morning it was clear, no snow, kinda on the warmer side.  This afternoon it was snowing so hard.


DRAMATIC AWARD 2012 goes to...... MILO!!!!
(clap clap, whistle, yayayayay!!!)


I still don't mind the snow. I had a severe case of the ZOOMIES!  upon take off i look like a Kangaroo firing off my hide legs.  Devin had to try and reel me in a few times.  On one of my last Zoomies, I YELPED and began to favour my rear left leg.  Devin picked it up to see what was going on.  Nothing visible to the eye, Devin told me I was alright and to try and walk it off.  I hobbled (you walk it off Devin!) quickly pulling my leg up into my body.  Devin was impressed with my walking on 3 feet abilities. I have tons of unknown talent! hehe

Devin picked up my leg again to take another look, still nothing, a few little piece of snow, but nothing to write home about.  Devin told me I was alright, and we kept walking. After about 10 steps I was perfectly fine.  :)
It's been awhile since I tapped into my dramatic side. 

Back home, supper was served.  I've been going between Devin's bed, my bed, and my "nest".
Feeling a bit like the princess and the pea today.

November 23, 2011 - First Snowfall *Video*

My First Snow Fall - November 23, 2011: I'm not in Texas Anymore...

Last night -refused to sleep in the bedroom. I was enjoying my alone time. *nose/head under bunny*

When Devin took me outside this morning I was a bit confused with what was going on.
Our morning walk (4am) was a strange yet fun one.  I was first hesitant to go out the front door. I was watching from the "safe" side of the glass.  Devin got me to go down the stairs; and I was off!

Checking out the white stuff from behind the safety /warm of the glass door

I had a major case of the zoomies on the entire walk. We didn't go very far; but far enough though for me to do my morning business.  I jumped, sprinted, flew to the end of my leash many times. Devin had to reel me back in.  This white stuff is fuuuun!

First few steps - blurry

Okay, so it's safe to walk on??

ooops - Don't eat the yellow snow!

 AND....We're off!

Zooomiiesss

Zoomies

Dashing Zoomies

Sat down in the snow for a moment. I was just gearing up to run full pin.

Off again....

Dashing through the snow.....

Happy tail. wagging all the wayyyyyy

And back home we go

My first snow paw prints :)  They kinda resemble a deer/rabbit.

This evening when Devin came home from work we went for a quick walk. I was a bit more tame with this stroll. I tried to climb a snow hill and ended up with snow up to my armpits.

Charlie Sheen nose

Can't....sniff......enough.....snow

warp speed ahead!!

Heading back home after our pre dinner stroll.

This piece of snow caught my eye. I went charging towards it. Stopped....sniffed. pawed/clawed it then continued on my way.  So many strange things!

I didn't destroy anything while Devin was away at work today.  Nana came by and let me out. We went for a walk. Poor Nana was very nervous about taking me out.  Apparently Devin called and warned Nana this morning to be careful with me as I had those "zoomies" this morning.  If I were to take off I'd surely take Nana's arm with me.

I did attempt to zoomie on Nana, but she had me so tight in her "paw" i couldn't get off the ground.  Nana may be small but she sure had a death grip on me.  A few coughs let Nana know she was holding on a weeee bit too tight. I know she had my best interest at heart though.  

Green Beans 2 - Milo 0.
Nana got me with the green beans again.


Getting back to me not destroying anything or getting into anything while Devin was at work....
below is a photo of the sweater i pulled out from my bed in the bedroom.  Devin has been leaving it for me so I don't feel so lonely.  I decided I wanted it out by my crate.    :)

Devin's jacket that i relocated from my bed to the living room - sometime after Nana left me.
