hello there- the camera has been on the fritz lately (dead), so i am writing yet another post sans pictures. the girls have been fine- there is another meetup in a couple of weeks and we are looking for ward to actually going this time. Gertrude is healing well from her surgery, and playing and being good. Steve is being paranoid still about her (he seems to think she is swollen, which i really don't see. his overprotective side is shining through) but she really is doing great. she can't fit under our really low bed anymore (thank god because she used to get stuck there and would wake me up at 3 in the morning to get her out), nor the really low coffee table where she liked to hide from Muppy while they played. but she is still small for her age and being a PUG. last night we went out with my friend Courtney out to coffee and they decided to harass a pomeranian that was there. i am convinced Muppy was jealous of her fanciness. her owners were even french. they were nice though. any time i can get the girls out and about i do so. Gertrude nearly clotheslined herself with the extending leash, and me being the idiot i am was not watching. sigh. anyway, thats all for now. everything has been suspiciously quiet. i can tell they miss their cousin tilly and reading new posts on her blog (hint hint chloe). i will try to post more (with PICTURES!) later this week.
