Christmas and Sickness...oh my!

So, you know that old saying about the best laid plans? That was our Christmas. Poor Love Bug has been sick for over a week now with a nasty virus. It's her first such illness and one thing is clear, she doesn't take it well! Mom and Dad wound up getting it too and we're all still trying to get better. Unfortunately, we had to cut our visit with family short but had to do what was best for our little one. When you're sick, there's no place like home. Thank goodness Love Bug won't remember this Christmas. I'm going to post a pic or two but they're not the greatest given the circumstances. Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!

Holiday Season and Another Family Member?

So we've recently taken in a female Jack Russell in need of a home. She's 2 years old, housebroken, smart, energetic, sweet and absolutely terrified of D. It's as though he's Freddy Kreuger. We don't know why but she won't even be on the same floor of the house. This is not good. We keep hoping she'll come around. According to the Dog Whisperer, D is supposed to ignore her and act aloof and she'll come to him. Yeah, no dice. She's glued to me and warming up to Love Bug. Keep your fingers crossed that this works out! On a more positive note, we had a fabulous Thanksgiving, which we hosted at our house. It was a lovely day and so nice not to have to drive. But, we're looking forward to heading home for Christmas and spending some time with our families.
