For those of you who've wondered how Her Imperial Majesty, Ariella, is doing, here is an update. The knee injury got quite a bit better for a while but is still occasionally problematic. She is taking glucosamine and advantage.
This picture was taken by Thing One. As I was attempting to IM with my friend Lime
the princess decided it was time for me to pay attention to her. She growled and pawed at me until I transfered her 45 pound furry ass onto my lap where she snuggled contentedly as long as I was petting her with the one hand. Having to type one-handed because my dog has a princess complex is somewhat trying to me. But clearly less so than attempting to IM while she is growling and batting at me.
It really is a dog's life, ok

Your avatar, it's the one I liked so much. Cool beans! I used to do one-handed IM's until I found Jesus.
i think you manage to remember the most important stuff.
all hail princess ariella!
Your priorities are entirely reasonable. Making tea is so habitual that I can lose track of any given brew... I never forget that I want it, only that I've already acted on wanting it.
Royal prerogative - the princess owns every lap in the kingdom.
That is a big dog.
I, too, am always reminded to give the husband credit/debit card receipts.
LMAO @ Chalkasian!!!
I do the same thing with the tea. Or... I get the water to a boil and decide ... I don't want tea right now.
Hey Logo! Wow, Ariella is beautiful and a bit bigger than I thought!
Hope all is well!
I knew I was forgetting something. Ah, sweet oxygen.
Hey Logo...haven't been able to comment until now...sorry!
I have been here though.
That out of the way. I agree, it is a dog's life. Sylvia has her way 100% of the time, for walks, treats, scratches and lap time. What Sylvia wants, Sylvia gets. Not too shabby!
Love your dog btw, she is adorable.
xoxo
Tangk Tim~ Stop touching yourself!
Glad you are enjoying the avatar, I like it too.
Lime~ Why thank you, would you mind sending Mr.Logo a not to that effect?
Joe~ Well, she certainly thinks she does! I appreciate your confirmation of my priorities and to be honest if I did not live with someone who was so good about taking care of all those other things cicumstances might have dictated a reordering.
Arm~ She is really not lapdog size, I'm just glad she is not any bigger, that could get seriously uncomfortable!
Snavy~ When Mr. Logo and I heard that we knew it was us immediately, chalkasian, check!
Breazy~ Other than the snow, all is well. I am soo not happy about that!
Diesel~ In with the good air, out with the bad, in through the nose, out through the mouth.
Blue~ Blogger has been difficult, no worries, what you can when you can. Yes, the princesses must be pleased.
I have a dog... She's Satan. No Really. Cherish your Angel.
Blither~ Awwwwa, she is not satan! She is just...slightly evil, but still very cute. I do treasure my angel though.
Actonbell~ Thank you, hopefully Mr. Logo will read this and agree with you:p As for the princesses, yes, I can see we could have problems there.
I am so with you on 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9 on the first set. And 1, 2, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 on the second.
I am copying and pasting because there is no verification code on this one! Crap!
Got one! guesy
Didn't take it! npxcw
