Ringo First Full Day
July 5, 2008 – 2:21 pmBoy am I tired. Many things have changed around the house.
I received a visit from my parents on Wednesday. They are helping me get going again after being set back because of my fall in May. They brought a used bed frame from my brother and a mattress and a bunch of bed accessories including awesome memory foam pillows.
On Thursday night, Mathieu helped me put up the bed frame and it was already 10pm. Ringo, who had arrived home just 90 minutes before, jumped on everything. So I am now officially moved into my 2nd story bedroom. It is still a mess of things.
Ringo was stressed about going into the crate for the night. I closed all the windows downstairs so my neighbors wouldn’t call the cops on me. He barked for about 10 minutes before settling down quietly.
I set my alarm for 6am and took him out the next morning. On Friday I got some work done and he spend a lot of the day in dreamland on the floor in my office his paws moving. If I was a dog I would dream of being an Irish Wolfhound running across highlands and while breathing salty sea air. I wonder what Ringo dreams about. It’s not like he can watch TV, marvel at the lives of rich puppies and develop an interest in a newfangled chew toys.
In the morning he was very nervous, not knowing what to expect from me but grew more secure as the day went on. He has tried to kidnap my daughter’s toys from her room or her office. I let him play with a small rubber ball which he throws and catches himself. I will have to buy him his own toy this week, possibly a Kong. He will meet Marie-Tangerine on Sunday morning.
