Day 2668

 I woke up at 8, played games for a while, and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After breakfast I decided to try to reduce Abby's attacks on the computer power cords.

I went out to the garage and got some Velcro and some stick on cable holders.  I crawled under the table and attached the power supplies to the table legs.  Then I routed the cables on the underside of the table using the cable holders.  There were no longer any cables on the floor except for very short ones to the power box.

I ordered some stuff from Amazon - a new dog crate, dog toys, and Velcro and cable holders to replace the ones I'd used.  Some things came today, the rest will be here tomorrow, most in the morning.  It's nice to be in the same day shipping area.

That seemed to work as we played with the dog during the morning.  It was cold, so most of the play was outside.  She did a great job at going to the can though.

Cooper is extremely pissed off when I play with the dog rather than holding him.  Both he and Devon are getting more comfortable with the dog.  The problem is Abby wants to play like they were puppies.  She wants to jump and run, they don't.  She actually got face to face with Devon and licked his nose.  he was not amused.

Abby had her first "accident" after lunch.  It was really our fault.  She started walking all around the kitchen, which she had been doing a lot today.  Eventually she pissed next to the cat room gate.  I think she thought it was the living room gate.  We really should have noticed what she was trying to tell us.

I'm the designated dog bed.  Every time Abby gets tired she wants up on my lap so she can sleep.  She goes to sleep and I put her in the box.  She complains a little and then goes back to sleep.

Things warmed up in the afternoon.  Ellen and I took Abby out for two romps in the backyard - have to get the yah-yahs out.  Then I went for a walk.  That way I don't feel guilty.

Ellen fixed thin steaks for dinner - one of my favorites.  I spent a lot of the evening in the recliner with the cats.  I want to make sure that they don't feel left out.  I know Cooper does.  Tere was one more dog play session though.
