Why have I been having such a hard time writing lately? I’d like to blame it on not having much free time, and spending what free time I have reading (although I haven’t been doing much of that), or…honestly, I don’t know what I’ve been doing in the evenings. Making dinner, eating it while watching some show with John, and then what? Cleaning up and going to bed? Writing a short paragraph here and then quitting for the night? The only time I’ve spent reading is before sleep and over breakfast.
Wah wah wah. Stop whining already.
I took the dogs on my hill workout this morning and let them drag me up the first two. By the third one, I was dragging them. You know how, when a dog steps over the leash so just one leg is on the wrong side, they’ll sometimes do a little hop to get free? Roxy’s pretty good at that, but this morning she managed to get the leash wrapped around her leg, not just crossed under. She tried to hop out of it a couple of times and when she figured out that it wasn’t going to be that easy, she stopped and picked her little paw off the ground and held it out to me. SO cute.
Somehow, that reminded me that we need to renew our passports soon. Can’t believe it’ll be ten years this November. Must mean I’m getting old. That’s getting a little close to whining again. Time to quit.

I think you’ve caught my disease, I seriously have felt the same way this week! That’s the cutest story about Roxy- I love it when Benny gets all caught up- he can never figure out what is going on!

I’ve got to do my kids US passports too, such a pain doing them abroad!

Spokeit, you seem to have gotten over it pretty well. Or at least, it doesn’t show. 🙂
Holly, how long does it take to get them done when you’re that far away? I’m looking at 4-6 weeks, once I send everything.
