Everyday Life as a Released Puppy

Boy - It sure feels like WINTER has arrived.  Ruthie and I could see our breath this morning when Dad let us out before breakfast.  I heard on TV that it was in the teens.  Mom was all wrapped up when she went out for her run.  With all of the clothes on it didn't even look like her.

I have been styling lately.  Mom bought some new booties for
Ruthie and I to wear around the house.  They are purple.  I also have some pink ones too.  I heard Mom say Ruthie really doesn't need to wear them just me since I have issues with wood floors and slip - sliding away.  I must admit the boots help but as I am getting older I kind of have gotten use to the floors and they don't bother me as much.  Don't want to tell Mom though since I like to be styling around the house.


October is Halloween.  Ruthie and I helped Mom put out the scary decorations on October 31.  Started in the morning and it took us till late afternoon to get everything up.  We did take a break to go for a walk since it was such a nice fall day.  However, Halloween night didn't go as planned.  Dad was not able to be here because he had to stay at the Court House in Lincoln waiting for a verdict in his trial.   The jury didn't come back till late in the afternoon and Dad still had to drive back home to Omaha.  Mom tried at first to give out treats to the trick or treating kids and Jell-O shots to trick or treating adults but Ruthie and I tried too hard to assist so we had to go to the mud room.  Mom told us she was afraid we would get out and get scared and run away.  I would never do that and if Mom understood puppy talk we would have told her so.

Watching Mom putting the last minute decorations up before it got dark.  Can you see us in the door ?

On Sunday we went for our morning walk around the lake but kind of wish we would have put on coats like Mom and Dad.  The sun was out but the air was cold.  Later in the day Mom and Dad went out on the boat for a quick spin trying to burn up gas in the engine.  They took the boat out of the water and put it in a BIG storage garage.  Mom said it will be back next summer.
