block
for one thing my desk is stilled piled high with stuff. even my scanner that i would need to use to scan the comics has a stuffed elephant mom and baby that i found recently and had to buy. they stand on top of my scanner to remind me of the side of me that is a potential good mommy.
i'm still anxious and unmotivated to do anythign in the apartment. but i'm definitely feeling more stable than the last weeks of may, so that's a good thing.
elvis is getting his teeth done next friday. i'm terrified. trying not to think about it now. focusing on how puppylike and energetic he's been and how he's walking fine even running. the glucosamine did not work out as the beef pill pockets that i was going to eventually put the pills in started to give him beginnings of diarhea so i and the vet agreed to forgo the beef pockets and glucosamine. poor elvis. he really liked those beef treats. now he has to go back to waiting once a month for beef flavor in his anti-heartworm pill treat instead of getting a pillpocket twice a day. it was fun giving them to him as he really enjoyed them. but not worth messing up his fragile little digestive system.
he's so wonderful i continue to marvel at his beautiful being. seeing him trot down the street so excited to be outside on nyc's dirty garbagefilled sidewalks and sniffing all kinds of stuff, is better than any medication to remind me that i'm already so blessed by having him in my life for the past fourteen years or so. i think dogs are injected with extra godliness divinity at birth as they stay that way all their life. as opposed to us humans who turn into, well, humans. it's no wonder that dog is god spelled forwards and god is dog spelled backwards!

Oh my gosh, Marlena! Your post almost made me cry! You're so right about dogs...and I'm happy you have Elvis, he's a wonderful companion to you. Like your child, right? Your post reminded me of my dog so much...I still feel the exact same way! They are such a blessing - giving so much love, yet asking for nothing in return (except food and scratches behind the ear). :-)
don't worry about doing or not doing things...do what you can when you feel like it. resting, walking Elvis and taking care of yourself is the most important things for you right now...the rest will all fall into place.
It must be something in the air cause I don't have any either. I'm cruising on habit. That's ok. It will come around again.

Elvis will be OK. My dog got her teeth cleaned at the age of 2 years old and she was fine. Her breath smelt sooooo bad.. LOL!!!
But she was very active and herself when we took her home. :)
Enjoy the layback and relaxation...things will slow down for you as being pregnant can be tiresome.
Hang in there!
Hey Marlena...where are you??? Please give some sort of signal that you are still with us...
Don't make me come over there and kick your ass...
nice ending there :)
HELLOOOOOOO
Where the hell are ya?
hi everyone, thanks ol' lady. sorry i've been away. just trying to get through each day. things are going better but i've been tired a lot and lazy about doing anything more than the minimum so blogging has been neglected.
