Roxie's Thoughts for the Day...

Hey All!

Roxie here. I decided that Rudy shouldn't be the only one to steal the computer and blog, so I have captured the computer while everyone is busy doing their own stuff. Shortone said it's okay. She knows I take my time on things.

Today has been really fun. Shortone came out of her room just like she has the whole week and we played with toys! Every morning she plays with Rudy and me before she does anything else! It's awesome having her here!

The first part of the afternoon all the people here were really vocal about some game called football. They had the T.V. on and were often yelling loudly and clapping during the game. Rudy and I often barked when they got really loud...it kinda scared me. Shortone said it was odd just because she really doesn't follow football but she seemed to have fun. And they were happy at the end of the game, so I'm pretty sure their team won.

Shortone was really nice to me throughout the game and would pet me anytime I would come near her. This seems to upset Rudy quite a bit, and he would get in our way a lot, but I could tell Shortone really wanted me to feel included.

Shortone seems to be going through something or other, I don't know what, but I've really tried to be extra nice to her this trip. And, we've cuddled from time to time. She seems to really like that. It's not like I can talk to her or anything but I can cuddle. I think that's all she needs now. She just needs a little love right now, I think.

Shortone left with Mom for a while after that. I went down and hung out with Dad while they were gone. Dad is really cool. He has treats in his office so it's always fun to be with him.

After Shortone and Mom returned, they put stuff on ANOTHER tree! I guess Shortone didn't have enough fun yesterday doing the one little tree, so she and Dad put stuff on a bigger tree. And, Dad put a tree out on the porch! What is it with all these people and trees? There are TONS outside and noone's putting stuff on them. I don't get it. I noticed that they put stuff lower on the other tree today...maybe I'll sniff some of those since they're at my level!

Shortone made pizza and I got to sit with her a bit while it was baking. I even got scraps afterward! I REALLY like having her here!

Well, it's time to go for a roadtrip, so I need to logoff for now.

Shortone now thinks I'm one of the TWO coolest dogs on the planet. Yippee!

Later!
