Kona's doing fine....NOW!

Kona is sleeping peacefully....NOW! He was up ALL night. I only slept about an hour. Poor guy. He actually played a little this morning, but I was surprised at how much he was in pain. Rusty's Mom said Rusty (his best friend!) was up all night the first night too. He doesn't seem interested in his sutures, so no cone (or is that Kone)!

He is sort of hunched up and super skinny in this picture. It was the night of the surgery and he had not eaten in over 24 hours.....HEY.....he might be on to something: Puppy Diet...don't eat for 24 hours and you look emaciated. Great.


But...he's still smiling!

SNIP! SNIP!

POOR KoneMan! Today is the day he becomes KoneNonGender. I dropped him off at 9am with big fat tears in my eyes. I can't call 'til 3pm and can't go get him 'til 4pm. I think I might faint.....

Lucy and the KitTONS however, are thoroughly enjoying the day. I haven't seen Jeets' eyes so small in weeks. Got Milk is a sweet as honey and Lucy is snoring away (after swallowing the last of the forbidden "chewies"). Ahh....it's a great day......

BTW, Rusty, Kona's best friend in doggie class got neutered yesterday by the same Dr. The girls in the front happened to mention that someone just yesterday bawled her eyes out as she dropped off her precious cargo...hmmm....I wonder if it was Rusty's mom!?!?

I just love this story.

I think I need a Science blog...this has nothing to do with KoneMan!

Welcome to the OMG Club.....

This morning I registered for the Carlsbad Half Marathon. BFF thought it would be fun and recruited me and Mr. America (new name for Hubby....more later on WHY***).

http://www.active.com/framed/event_detail.cfm?EVENT_ID=1547677&CHECKSSO=0

During registration, it asks you to estimate how LONG it will take you to run it. I, being the slowest runner on the planet (IF you can even call it "running") opted for the longest possible selection, 3 hrs +. BFF and Mr. A think they can do it around 2 hrs 15 mins or so. Aren't they speedy!? Guess I will have a cheering section when I drag my...eh...myself across the finish line.

Then suddenly I realized....OMG.....I will turn 40 exactly 3 days before. So....how fast will I be when I am 40?

Mr. A says "Welcome to the OMG Club"

Uggg!


***WHY? Because he is an All American, baseball-loving, hot dog-eating guy!

Doggie play time

Why are all the videos INSIDE you ask??? I can't figure it out either. They only play in the house.....
