I got back from my mom's last night. My back is still hurting from two hours on the bus from Portland to Boston, two hours in the airport, four and a half hours on the plane, an hour and a half in the car home. In fact it is still hurting from all those in reverse on the way to Portland.

I was signed up for seed starting for the Xeriscape Demonstration Garden this afternoon. It would involve more sitting in a chair. But I like this group and want to stay involved. I psyched myself out by thinking that my car probably wouldn't start anyway, since there was a long bitter cold spell while I was gone, so I put on outdoor clothes and went out just to check. And my car started, so I went. I really do like this group!

Now I'm supposed to go to my Classics book group. I really like them too! And the book this month -- yes, for Classics book group -- is The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It'll be another two hours in a chair but I am looking forward to the discussion.


Matilda's jaws have been busy, on many things which it is lawful to shred, as well as the new bookcase, the Monstera (which is indeed called deliciosa), and my boots, dammit:

Lots of sitting

[jesse_the_k]

I simply can't imagine that much sitting.

To your beautiful dogs (who are making Tony-level displays of indifference and blamelessness):

No! Do not eat your person's boots! This tends to make it less likely you will have wonderful walks!

Matilda does not want any walks. There are cars out there. Don't you people understand that cars can kill you?

I think and hope that she is getting less fearful! Today she walked out the front door *willingly* and we got halfway to the sidewalk before she needed to turn around. Then she was sad, because Dutch was having a lovely long walk and Matilda was alooooooone!

Two adorable faces!

[pameladean]

I feel that Dutch needs to be cute for Matilda too, and she is doing very well. (I don't mean that Matilda isn't cute, but that her depredations demand more cuteness than one dog can easily supply.) They could not be sweeter.

But oh no, your boots.

Those are some adorable little faces that it's very hard to be annoyed at!

[lunabee34]

Oh, no. So much shredding. But so much cuteness.

[muninnhuginn]

Beautiful dogs! And where do you get to sit?

[delphi]

Hm, I don't know. That's the face of a dog that has surely never done anything wrong in her life. Is it possible your boots and monstera just spontaneously combusted?
