Good Grooming

Jean brushes me most days.  For some reason they don't like my hair all over the house.  Jean bought a couple new grooming tools.  One is an undercoat rake.  It removes tangles.  Then there is the Furminator.  It helps take out some of the undercoat so I don't shed so much.  I am so beautiful.

Tonight we took a nice long walk on the trail.  I got to get a drink in the creek.

Lots of company

Today we had lots of company.  First Jean's brother Jim came to help us in the vineyard.  Jim plays softball and throws the tennis ball very well.  I had fun playing tennis with him.  Next Jim's friend Bob came to help in the vineyard.  Bob was also very good at throwing the tennis ball.  I am always happy when people come to play with me.  Then Charlie came for dinner.  He brought Jen and John with him.  I like it when Charlie comes because we always get extra treats.  It was a great day.

Lazy Day

Today Jim went to take pictures.  Jean spent the day working at her desk.  That left me free to take a nice nap.  We went outside a couple times to play ball and check on the fish.  I don't see why Jim and Jean like the fish.  They don't know any tricks and all they do is swim around.

Tuesday

Today I helped Jim outside.  We have a lot of work to do outside.  The weather has been really nice.  I get to play a lot of fetch the stick and tennis ball.  Jim and Jean go to run on Tuesday evening so I get to take a nap in the evening.

Softball Monday

Today I helped Jim outside.  We working in the garden and the vineyard.  We trimmed the grass.  We fed the fish.  I worked very hard.

My other job is to help coach Jim when he plays softball.  I like going to the softball games.  There are always children there who like to pet me.  Tonight Trevor was there.  I really like Trevor because he very gentle with me.  There was a little girl named Jessie who kept hugging and kissing me over and over.  She said she wished I was her dog.  I am TJ and Pat's dog. 

Sunday fun

This morning Jim got up early to let me outside then to feed me breakfast.  Then he went back to bed.  When Jim and Jean got up I had my second breakfast - waffles.  We relaxed most of the day.  We took a nice walk around the neighborhood where I saw my friends Sammy and Maddie (the great dane).

More Storms

Last night there where more terrible storms.  I instinctively know that you should go to a basement or interior room with no windows during a storm.  I am not going to hang out in the basement unless Jim and Jean are there so I choose to sleep in Jim and Jean's big closet.  There are no windows and it is close to Jim and Jean.  I like it there.  When the storm passes I will then go to my bed in the kitchen.

Today we went outside and checked on the grape and the trees.  They are growing.
