I think we've done alright at this pet adventure so far. "O" is sleeping in his crate faithfully everynight, he's reliving himself in the appropriate spots, he's getting better at walking on a leash and he's jumping up on people habit has been curbed. But, we got hit with the flu bug this week and my resistance was down. Poor Abby is in the thick of it right now. I know exactly how she feels, because I was there 48 hours ago and I'm still wiped out. Oakley has sensed something is up and he climbed into bed with her. They look so peaceful together, how could I disrupt that?

It's that sweet face that gets me everytime. (Both hers and his)
I'm looking forward to V-Day. I've signed up to bring cake to a little celebratory gathering. How does red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting sound? I really want to make cupcakes, but I feel like maybe I should also do another cake too that would appeal to a broader audience. I think there will already be lots of chocolate, so I need suggestions for another cakey item. P.S. It needs to be something I can frost and write on. Hmmmmm.....
