So last week I declare my gratitude to all (both) of my readers and to my blog itself and then….. crickets. Nothing.
So by way of an update:
There was talk of Goose’s weight. Someone (Bob) thought that there was too much of it. I maintained that his torso is just larger than his legs are long due to the mixing of the breeds. Or maybe his head is smallish. It was decided that before all this weight talk caused Goose to have body dysmorphia (and no one wants a bulimic dog, let me tell you) that we would consult a professional. The World’s Best Vet reassured us that Goose is perfect, but we are moving him from puppy food to adult food. They grow up so fast.
Also I have had a toothache. I went to the dentist to have the source of the pain identified. The tooth that received a crown six months ago may have cracked further under pressure (who knows the stress a royal molar faces). The solutions offered were a) a root canal or b) extraction of the tooth and then there was something about a titanium rod and bone growing and five thousand dollars and OMG! And here is my first, and possibly only, opportunity to say that I would rather have a root canal and mean it.
Lastly, I have been cheating on my blog. Not with another blog, that would be unseemly. I have been taking a creative writing class and it may have been sucking all the creative out of me. I could be a one trick pony. I am definitely a one trick pony. Luckily it is only a six week class and I will be filled with “creative” once it is over. Sadly it is only a six week class and I am really enjoying it.
Take that crickets!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I love your blog. I was especially distressed during the few weeks about a month ago when there were no updates. What’s happened? I wondered. Did she go on another Alaska cruise? that lucky duck!
But then it was back. So even if you don’t hear anything (but the incessant chirping in the basement) we’re out here, reading.
Not just crickets,
Nancy

Thank you so much for support and the birthday wish. The cricket reference was really about my lack of posting. I have not been as consistent as I would like, but I try not to post just for the sake of posting cause then it ends up being drivel.
