I’ve been deleting old videos on my iPad, so I could download a new iPadOS update.

So my early evening has been filled with videos of Puppy Teddy, here at 8 months old.

Teddy the Havapoo is obsessed with his own tree. This was the third time this morning that he stood with his paws against the trunk on this walk.

There is nothing in the tree. No cats, no birds, no squirrels.

Teddy does not appreciate that I am dancing instead of giving him his breakfast.

My little bear is having some struggles jumping, which is unfortunate as he is a parkour pup and also we live in a house with stairs.

Here is him on Monday before he found a tennis ball.

We are watching him closely, and also carrying him up and down the stairs and on and off the beds/sofas/etc.

There is no better prize than another dog’s tennis ball, abandoned in the park.

Sent this screenshot to the family football chat this morning, which includes my Chelsea-supporting brother in LA:

"Good morning! Thanks for Noni!"

Wondering exactly when to wake my husband and our dog in the dark to hustle them downstairs for kickoff.

Jumping on the bed excitedly to say "EZE!" Is probably too much at 6 ish am.

I took the boy (pup) for a stroll pre-match. It’s so hot out that after fifteen minutes I am physically uncomfortable.

I checked the temp and it’s only 83!

At this time last year, we were in LA with my brother to see Arsenal play at SoFi in pre-season. It was heaven.

This morning, I giggled audibly at 530 am when I remembered I have a lunchtime webinar to hear Leah Litman, as a little treat to myself.

Thanks to serendipity and the Austin Public Library, I went looking for The Villlage in the Third Reich (after @brunojnavarro.bsky.social posted screenshots) and instead checked out What you are looking for is in the library.

Every paragraph is a little gift.

Ted vs the trash bag: 30 seconds of barking at the emergency freeze protection.

The “feels like” temp was at 104 today, after such gorgeous weather over the weekend we kept the patio door open.

The dog doesn’t understand why he can’t go on his w-a-l-k until the sun goes down.

And it’s only May.

Ted knows that the weather in the front yard is different in the backyard.

So, it is too rainy for his w-a-l-k (2x), but then it’s also too rainy in the back (stares out of the open door and then up at me, as if I did this, 4x).

It’s our dog’s sixth gotcha day. I went over to the ‘Gram to post pictures for the family, which I did incorrectly because I haven’t opened the app in months.

A small protest outside an assisted living facility in Sarasota, Florida featured elderly people with walkers and wheelchairs.

Another day fighting with the dog to please do his business.

I logged into my local library to recommend that they buy your book. They’ve already bought seven and the hold times are long, which is great.

Watching the start of Fulham vs United on telemundo because there is a college Bb game on USA. Why end the pre-game on peacock early when the other game is programmed until 10 minutes after the game starts?

Teddy is now a Sweater Dog. This is his aprés ski look.
January 26, 2025 at 1:25 AM
It is so cold that Teddy the havapoo is wearing clothes.

Congratulations on your neighbors knowing your dog as “the one who sits in the window” and on your new home.

That terrible storm gave us the greatest graphic and unit of measurement: “full-grown corgis.”

Checked the weather forecast before turning in, then I had to get up and drop the faucets and open the cabinets. Yikes.
