winter days... on the disabled list

Chaos has been loving his new toys! I am also happy to report that the turtle has lasted over a week. I knew the Planet Dog collection would since they are the most durable, fun toys ever. The turtle is from the egg babies collection and has small eggs that go inside and Chaos is suppose to pull out. The eggs all squeak and chaos has always loved pulling the squeakers out of toys so I thought he may like this. He is only allowed to play with it while we are home and has done really well with it.

We went for a moonlight snowshow with Steve and Jess for the full moon. We had Budo and Mako with the group... chaos stayed behind with Jared since he is not able to walk 500 yards let alone a few miles. He is healing... we graduated to the front half of the cast but it got wet and began to rub. I called Dr Taylor and she told us to take it off but then he had to take it easy. No more friends for him until things are more stable. Budo is gentle but also loves to wrestle... then he'll kiss Chaos until we make him stop. Chaos isn't using his foot much but that should improve soon. He has a few sore spots and his foot is getting used to not being constricted.

I worked 7 days straight over vacation week with some long days. At the end of the week we found a great diversion on the way to pick up Chinese take out... we brought Mu-nee kitty along for the 15 minute ride to town. Silly but her spaziness was full of entertainment! I think she was nervous on the way there since we told her we were going to trade her in for an entree.

We also hit the climbing wall with Jess and Jared. It was fun to be able to show Jess the ropes- literally. Jared had done it before but it was Jess's first time. She was able to make it pretty far up and also became a champion belayer. This is important since I do fall and she handled it like a pro... even while the wall guy was talking to her.
