Tomorrow is Lyra's first dog show. It's over two years since Ivv's first dogshow and it's sooo long since I've shown my own dog! It will be fun- And I really hope she behaves. I have to admit, she gets away with a lot, she is the last puppy I will have in years and I want to keep her a puppy as long as possible... But I really think I need to set some rules soon, before she thinks its okay walk on the table and such:p

A friend of mine said that puppies are miniature dogs on happypills... So true! Everymorning Lyra wakes me up (Several times each morning!) with jumping up in the bed and really -jumps- around in it wagging her tail and if she could talk it would have been "GOOD MOOORNING! NEEEW BRIGHT DAY! UP UP UP!" she learned quickly that jumping on Ivy (Who ofc sleeps in the bed with me... I think she might die a bit if I told her not to do it!) would not be a very smart idea, since Ivy doesn't wake up by herself before sometime around noon :p But me on the other hand... Ah well, its such a good thing puppies are cute ;)

Had a really good day yday, was out driving for 5 hours (soon driving exam, and if I fail AGAIN I'll just never do it again :p Failing issues- yes.)
Bought new curtains for the kitchen, new table for the livingroom and ofc the dogs got their share too :) New toys, MonsterPuppy (Lyra...) Got a new leash, and a new exhibition leash as well since we are going to her first puppy show on sunday- Ivy has a white one with pink stones, so she needed something similiar ofc ;)
Other then that it's been a while since I've had a whole night of sleep. "Someone" likes keeping mommy awake during the night kicking, and if its like this already... I'm not looking forward to how it will be in 10 weeks:P

Occupying the 5th position in the Chinese Zodiac, the Dragon is the mightiest of the signs. Dragons symbolize such character traits as dominance and ambition. Dragons prefer to live by their own rules and if left on their own, are usually successful. They’re driven, unafraid of challenges, and willing to take risks. They’re passionate in all they do and they do things in grand fashion. Unfortunately, this passion and enthusiasm can leave Dragons feeling exhausted and interestingly, unfulfilled.
While Dragons frequently help others, rarely will they ask for help. Others are attracted to Dragons, especially their colorful personalities, but deep down, Dragons prefer to be alone. Perhaps that is because they’re most successful when working alone. Their preference to be alone can come across as arrogance or conceitedness, but these qualities aren’t applicable. Dragons have tempers that can flare fast!
Considering their hard-working nature, Dragons are healthy overall. They do get stressed and suffer from periodic tension/headaches, likely because they take so many risks. Dragons could benefit from incorporating mild activity into their lives. Yoga or walking would be good as these activities can work both their minds and their bodies.
Dragons prefer leading to being led.

... What it's like having 3 dogs! Sometime back 3 would have been piece of cake, now I'm glad I only have two! But, to be fair- I have the easiest houseguest ever, I'm "babysitting" Shabtay, Jen's dog.. My smooth collie love :) So easy to have here, he knows the rules, knows me and Ivy (Me and Ivy have lived with him for some time:) ) and with no doubt, I'm having a male dog next time ;) (Well, that will be years tho.. But next time!)

... Guess who :p
After almost 9 weeks with being sick everymorning, being tired all the time and sleeping 10 hours a day (atleast)things were finally getting better- And I get streptococcus infection in my throat... And not only that, I manage to step over my foot being out with the dogs when it was dark- And it ended up being sprained. Wtf. :( cruches for atleast two weeks and minimal movement.
So ofc, I feel very sorry for myself!:P But. Guess it could always be worst :)
