It's Cold Outside

It is cold outside, very cold.  Jim and I just went outside for a little while.  When I am inside I always keep a toy nearby in case someone wants to play with me.

My foot is fine

My foot is fine.  Jim and Jean didn't take me for a run because yesterday my foot was bleeding a little tiny bit.  Today it is fine.  I just watched out the window while they went down the driveway and ran up the street.  They treat me like a baby sometimes.  I can run just fine.

My Foot

I have very sensitive feet.  Today I was helping Jim take the Christmas light down outside.  I was having fun chasing the tennis ball.  When we came in Jean noticed my paw was bleeding.  She cleaned it and put a wrap on it until it quit bleeding.  I was fine.  It didn't even hurt.  Jim took the wrap off and I was back to normal.

Old Toys, New Toys

I love all my new toys.  But I still love my old toys.  Today I played with my chicken and my duck.

Company

Tonight company came.  Jane and Bill (Jean's cousin) and Jim and Linda (Jean's brother).  I brought everyone my toys and balls.  I impressed them with my tricks.  I love having company.

Back To Work

Today was back to work for Jean.  That means she sat at her computer all day.  It was back to work for Jim and me too.  We had to bring wood from the wood pile to the house because it is going to rain tonight and tomorrow.  Jim drives his John Deere and I follow him with my tennis ball.  Jim threw the ball and I ran after it.  I hurt my foot.  Jim put me in the house.  Jean petted me and rubbed my foot.  Then I went to the window and cried because I wanted to be outside with Jim.  My foot was just fine so I went back outside to help Jim.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year to you.  Last night we stayed home and had a nice quiet evening.  This year TJ and Pat will be travelling all around the country while I stay here and help Jim and Jean.  That is okay because I am a working dog and there is lots of work to do around here.
