Still another 15 things I've learned about Hoban

 I'm still learning about my doggo.

  1. He likes to peel the bark off of sticks
  2. He will get focused on one toy and ignore you if you throw another toy for him to fetch
  3. He looks great in his holly collar
  4. He gets random bursts of herding energy when I walk him and he runs around me in small circles
  5. He doesn't seem to dig on his own, but if there is a hole that has been dug, he will dig it deeper/wider
  6. I am always tempted to buy him more toys
  7. He loves the dog park for fetch and socialization, but doesn't care about any of the extras
  8. He loves chai even though it isn't great for him
  9. He thinks he's a good cat chaser even though the one cat he's barked at hardly acknowledges him being there
  10. He is better about trying to get my attention
  11. He tends to nap in the morning
  12. No game is better than fetch (but tug-of-war is sometimes okay)
  13. He needs more practice in his booties
  14. I am more and more convinced that he is an Australian Cattle Dog, Jack Rusell, and Shiba Inu mix
  15. He always wants more friends

(Prompt by me)

Starting my parental journey, part 9

You can  read part 1 here ,  read part 2 here ,  read part 3 here ,  read part 4 here ,  read part 5 here ,  read part 6 here ,  read part 7 here , and read part 8 here . I've officially begun my second cycle. On Wednesday, I had a virtual appointment, yesterday I had my baseline ultrasound, and today I began injections again. On Wednesday, I expressed my concern about my weight and was told not to fret about it for this cycle but that I should work on it for my health. I got told some vague things about measuring my food by volume and weight and that being the key the weight loss (idk it sounded weird to me). But other than that my appointment went well and I really liked the PA I met with. Overall, she was supportive and encouraging me to advocate for myself. Yesterday, I had to get up earlier than normal (6am) so I could make it to my ultrasound at 7am (I have asked for future ultrasounds to be at 8am). I got weighed (ugh), had my blood drawn, and t...

15 facts about my dad

Just been thinking about some lighthearted facts I know about my dad lately. When he was young, he had a goldfish named Lysander He introduced me to Star Trek At Christmas, he would tear up at It's a Wonderful Life He used to send me articles from his Yahoo email account that he thought I'd like We used to play a game called "Nightmare" where he would lie down and we'd jump around (and sometimes on) him He would clip possible recipes for us to try out of newspapers and magazines We bought him a Paddington Bear to take on trips because we feared he'd be lonely and he always took it He had teddy bears for three different holidays We once had such a hilariously difficult time building a gingerbread house that when some frosting ended up on the counter, I plopped a gumdrop on it and we laughed until we cried He and his sister were born about 11 months apart We would try recipes from Top Chef He kept gifts I made him, even when they weren't great At Christmas, ...
