We are getting to that stage in Sadie's housebreaking where she is going potty outside because she knows she should, not just because I spend half the day out with her. Unfortunately it is also that stage where she asks to go out to play. We are trying to bell train her - basicly she rings the bells hanging on the door handle when she needs to go outside. Last night for the first time she rang the bell on her own to go out - yeah!! Today she is asking to go out to play or roll in the grass, just as much as to go potty! I can't not take her out - that would set back the training terribly. But I have other things to do besides watch her play!!
I am getting old. Oh, I know by the calendar how old I am, but my body is beginning to tell me too. I am having hot flashes. I'm not even 40 yet, and I've been having them all year. We took Steve bowling last weekend while Pete was gone to a picnic and I had to have Mike bowl a few frames for me so I could go splash cold water on my face and wait for it to pass. Another this morning while I was trying to put on my make up. UUUUUUGGGGGGHHHHHH.
Pete is gone with his class today on a field trip to Chicago, they are going to the zoo, and the Museum of Science and Industry. I wanted to chaperone, but was not chosen. It turned out to be a good thing, I got a call last night that my sister is having surgery today, so I will be able to go for that. I'm glad for that.
