The Plan, The Reality
Jul. 5th, 2011 12:55 amSo... My plan. We'll see if I can manage, but my /plan/:
Starting Monday:
9:00 - Get up, Puppy out, Puppy Breakfast
9:30 - Me Breakfast
Puppy Walk
11:30 - Shower
12:00 - Leave the house (without the puppy)
1:00 - Puppy out, Puppy Lunch, Me Lunch
1:30 - Puppy Walk
3:00 - Leave the house (without the puppy)
5:00 - Puppy out, Training, Puppy Dinner, Me dinner
6:00 - Puppy Walk
7:00 - Relax
12:00 (or curfew whistle) - Puppy Out, Get ready for bed
The reality
9:00 - hit the snooze button
9:07 - realize that I haven't fallen back asleep, and get up, get dressed, get the dog out
*Oh, Sucking Fishtanks, it's RAINING. And COLD.*
9:30 - Eat breakfast
9:45 - Puppy Breakfast
*Oh, dear. The puppy is probably going to lose 4 teeth, today... Happy Teething Day to you!*
10:00 ... ... IT'S RAINING. And it's COLD! (38F and pouring rain.) Don't WANNA go out. Play with puppy for a little bit before grabbing collar and leash and -
10:10 Phone call. It's pouring rain and cold in Alakanuk, too, but Hank was looking at pictures on his computer and saw the picture of me and Cody, so called. Aw.
11:00 - Puppy Walk. It's still cold, and still pouring, so we don't walk too far, and instead go into the school after a while and Cody runs around the gym until he's mostly dry and mostly tired.
12:20 - Doing laundry where he can't see me counts as being out of the house, right?
1:30 - Puppy out, Puppy lunch, me, eat a bite of leftovers. Play with puppy, study puppy teeth... Dear lord, the second set are coming in behind the first, he's going to be a shark-puppy! Get more things to chew. Do laundry... It's still POURING out. Wait until wet clothes are dry and ...
3:00 - Puppy walk. Long walk. Wet walk.
4:30 - Did I mention with the wet? More laundry. Mostly just drying the sopping wet clothes from the walk. More puppy play, more puppy teething, more looking for things to appease the puppy jaws.
6:30 - Puppy dinner
7:00 - Puppy walk
7:30 - More laundry (Yes, it's still wet.)
8:00 - More puppy teething
9:00 - Puppy NAP! Eat leftovers.
10:00 - Puppy out.
10:15 - More puppy teething
11:00 - Puppy NAP!
12:00 - ... I dunwanna wake the puppy and get us both soaking wet... maybe it'll stop raining if I wait a few more minutes...
